Article about comments by Bakhtiari about what went wrong in Green Bay.

https://packerswire.usatoday.com/2019/01/30/david-bakhtiari-details-packers-festering-lack-of-accountability/
Bakhtiari describes a deteriorating culture inside the Packers locker room. Players late to team flights or meetings went without punishment. Same for underperforming players.


“There’s needs to be that fear, for guys across the board, that, “Hey, your job is consistently being judged, and you have to perform,'” Bakhtiari said.


Bakhtiari said the lack of accountability trickled down and festered in “multiple avenues” within the team. That same lack of discipline often manifested on the field, in the form of game-changing mistakes, turnovers and penalties.

Mike McCarthy’s team lacked the urgency and direction from start to finish in 2018.

I wonder how much lack of accountability coincides with a lack of depth?

I think the lack of accountability though was an issue from the 1st game of the year, before injuries destroyed the depth.

Could be. But the declining talent on the team didn't develop just last year. Perhaps on a team with more pieces, those issues get resolved faster because you have to play your butt off to hold a job?

For instance, Seattle, which is forever extolling the virtue of Pete Carrol's compete for every rep approach. It worked far better for the defense than, say, their offensive line. But I do suppose it possible all those high round picked lineman were goofing off too.

I don't know...."You're fired asshole" sounds very much like "We love you but you're fired."
