bbb = tank? i'm sure that thought has crossed other minds.

Actually, there have been a few posters that have been said to be Tank. Gex, Mobb are the two main ones.

Typical fan drivel.

I KNOW WHATS BEST AND YOU DONT!

I kinda hope we lose out the season now and see what sort of fever pitch we can get out of the absolute hoard of internet tards out there waiting to post some serious amounts of BS.

If it starts getting back into flame wars again, I will be putting people on time out. Just an FYI.

The penalties are coaching. And TT hires the coach! And Grant is an av erage back!I'm not the only one who thiks that. Read Bob Mcguin from the Journal Sentinal. No, what's laughible is peoples blind faith in an incompetant regime!

Yeah becuase Bob McGin is an NFL expert.

I would say that he is one of the most knowledgable football writers out there.. certainly moreso than an expert like yourself.. :P

I don't consider myself an expert, and while Bob is knowledgeable, I still think he is an idiot.

Once again, you contribute nothing to this discussion.

TT isn't ruining it. This team was even worse when he was hired.

no doubt.. but how much better is it now? We're at 5-8. Not that much better. TT is below .500, and that isn't good.

It's just plain stupid to bad mouth Thompson. It's even stupider to blame Sanders. The injuries, along with miscellaneous other items of bad luck are responsible for losing FIVE GAMES by four points or less. The same was true in the 4-12 season, and a bunch of fools got all panicky then, too.

How in the hell BAD do you think our defense would be if we had some other scheme? Zone coverage, overdoing the blitzing, etc., it would be a disaster, given the diminished talent due to injuries.

There is a ton of reason for optimism to bounce back big next season. The one worry I have is that the idiots get their way, and Sanders does get replaced by some blitz-happy numbskull of a D-Coordinator. Fortunately, however, I don't see that happening, because I think McCarthy/Thompson have the good sense to appreciate that D scheme we have.

What could improve things? I wouldn't mind seeing the Packers going to a 3-4 D next year--keep the man coverage, keep the small amount of blitzing--except that one of the four LBs usually blitzes--still just four going in. The D line we have is mostly suited for that; Draft another good LB or two; Barnett and Hawk both inside, with Chillar, Bishop, and Popinga, all of whom seem capable of blitzing and coverage as needed; The 3-4 is supposed to be good for stopping the run. It might just work.

Back to reality, though. Things probably aren't gonna change, and that's fine with me. Keep Sanders, get everybody healed up, and this will be a great defense next season.

Did you watch Bishop get lit up yesterday by any chance?

PLease. Sanderrs wan't getting it done this year when all hands were on deck. Sanders is incompetent and needs to go. You don't have to get a "blitz happy numskull" as you put it either. As HC get fired there will be good DC out there to be had. Sanders must go.

I repeat, get rid of Sanders and you change the scheme--unless maybe you go and dig up Jim Bates. Do you guys REALLY think some half-assed system with mostly zone coverage and way too many blitzes is better? Watch a few games; CONSISTENTLY, pro or college, blitzing results in big plays for the opponents, while dropping in coverage results in turnovers--like has been the Packers bread and butter.

Yes, I watched Bishop. I have always had a high opinion of him, and it's based on Sunday's game that I say, he can do it all--blitz when needed, cover decently as LBs go, and do a helluva job against the run. One of the few positives from that game was seeing Bishop show some skills. The much-maligned Montgomery did OK too. Kampman was the one getting run over and mostly falling short on sacks. He kinda reminded me of KGB.

I would like a change in scheme, and a new DC. I don't want to see zone coverage and lots of blitzing, but I would like a change in philosophy on defense. I would like a defense that is far more focused on stopping the run, even if it comes at a cost of a slightly more lax pass defense. I want to see a real SS (not Charles Woodson) down in the box ready to annihilate the RB at the LOS. I want to see a scheme that doesn't have AJ Hawk simply eating blocks so Barnett can make tackles - rather a scheme that teaches ALL of our DL and LB's how to shed blocks and make plays. All of that can be accomplished without switching to a primarily zone coverage with lots of blizing.
