Not really shocking--since a new DC will want to bring in his own assistants. This points to Moss getting the job, and being allowed to bring in his guys.

Wow. Its like a Soviet era purge. I wonder if their names are still on the Packers.com website. I am still rooting for Wade Phillips to be fired, but that is looking less and less like M3's plan.

Well, it needed to be done. My guess is they will give the DC to Moss, but I sure would like a DC with a proven track record get the job like Nolan.

Packer fans have taken down the National Football Post. Its database is over its connection limit. The ESPN blurb is based on another NFP link.

Of course Moss may still be in the running in St. Louis. We'll have to keep an eye out on Packers.com for confirmation.

JSOnline is getting killed on this. Wilde confirmed it, NFP broke two stories about it and JSO is still saying its Sanders and only a report.

I wonder if Al Harris confirmed it for Wilde.

Also heard that Campen may be out as line coach (per PFT).

Surprised at the purge of so many coaches. It's a double edged sword for MM and TT.

What is the most official source on this whole deal?

The Packer site is mum, JSO slow.

Seems like the ususal sources are waiting to make a comprehensive announcement, but "info lag" is wierd.

I would have agreed with you in the past but it seems he is the only one who shouldn't get fired his unit was good despite injuries and not 7 players in front of them except Kampy. If they give the job to the guy who coached the worst unit on the team besides Stock it speaks volumes about the inbreeding and stupidity of MM and TT.

Most information (and first so far) is Brandt and the National Football Post. They broke Sanders firing and then today the rest of the D staff being let go.

Wilde has confirmed Sanders as gone. But that's it as far as I know.

Another possible candidate would be Dallas head coach Wade Phillips, a close friend of general manager Ted Thompson’s, if Phillips is fired.

I hope this the JS's attempt at humor.

Bob McGinn has a chat starting in 5 minutes. I'm sure we'll get some information out of that.
