Ding dong Capers will be gone!

[red]

There are a few places with reports of Capers leaving. ESPN, Bleacher Report and ProFootball Talk.

They are all based off the same story I believe

It’s all based on Adam schefter reporting that capers is not expected back

No one else has actually confirmed the story yet, and nobody has said for a fact that he will be gone

[mraynrand]

It's ok. You can start a go fund me for Dom since you are so worried about him. Not that I believe the Packers will have the balls to actually get rid of spray paint hair.

He's a nice guy and a decent DC. I suspect they can do better, but I'm betting it won't be as easy as you constitutive complainers think. Enjoy your bitching and moaning. My New Years resolution is to disengage. God Bless!

This.

Change is needed but it won't be a magic elixir.

The Saints are a good example -- HOF QB / Hot offensive coach, but once they had to drop Gregg Williams they wandered around in the desert for a few years' worth of Brees prime before they hit on a functional defense again.

I mostly plan to enjoy the next 5 years of Packers football, come what may.

Schefter is usually on target with his reports so let's hope he's right about this one too.

Full disclosure...

I, wist, am the "unnamed source" behind this story. I was hoping to start a movement

I hope we don't wind up with a Rob Ryan type hire. If we do, we'll waste more of Rodgers remaining years.

Then you owe us a competent hire and no more wilderness on D. Pick your man wist!

Trust me, I think all of us have our fingers crossed just waiting for confirmation

Decent DCs can turn a team around in the first year

Hell even capers managed to do that everywhere he went in the first year or two

And it should take a whole hell of a lot to make this shitshow we’ve had for years look even a little better

The new guy just has to show up and say, from now on, we’re gonna try covering people

[pbmax]

Any new D coordinator, a competent one anyway, will get better results for 8 games. There is no film on the new defense and players in the new scheme.

Its what happens afterward that is important. Its what made 2010 so good, after a 2009 of fantastic D.

I haven't even looked at who might be available... he still isn't gone, so I'm assuming he stays.

Capers leaving?? I'll believe it when I see it.

Don’t be a pussy. Make your call.

I'm surprised he won't given that only Wist has access to Pure Truth.

No kidding !

Why waste good time and analysis on the likes of TT and MM and what they should have done or dump Dom Capers years ago..

Knowing those Guys as I believe I've assessed them. They'll keep Dom Capers around so they have something else to use as 'a Scapegoat Complaint' next Season, if it goes South again.

Yes, look what happened with the Rams.

[bobblehead]

With a top 5 defence every season he coached....they could destroy Old Country Buffet together...

Not this season

One story just said that even if the team has decided to move on from capers, fat mike may not make it official for another week

Good ole stubby dragging his ass across the carpet again

Give him a day, if he doesn’t announce capers is gone, then the team needs to make an announcement saying both are gone

Why? What's the hurry? A lot of the people they might want to interview for the DC position are likely still coaching for playoff teams, or may be in line for HC interviews.

I was heartened by seeing somebody say it wasn't sure ....... until I noticed it was Wist hahahaha. Yeah, it looks like Capers is going - a helluva way to wake up New Years morning.

They damn well better replace him with somebody similar - like Aranda - because with the lousy personnel that Ted Thompson has provided, you people who think it's bad now are gonna be in for a shock. This Packer D just can't line up and play straight up with other teams. We NEED that scheming, trickery, and compensation.
