Official fire Maurice Drayton

[Upnorth]

I think Drayton should be gone as much as any of ya'all, and I strongly think he will be gone, but I sure as hell am not gonna question the judgment of LaFleur to make a good decision on this regardless of how it turns out.

If he hires from outside I agree. If he goes internal, God help us all.

In my opinion he not only needs to hire outside the organization, but because the Packers have no recent record of ST success, and because he doesn't have a background in ST, I think he needs to go outside the organization for advice on how to fix the problem, including who to hire as ST coach.

If MLF sticks with Drayton, then he has to take a more hands on approach with ST. But I don't think he'll do that. A couple of years of years ago, he fired his 1st WR coach after 1 season, so he's not afraid to admit he made a hiring mistake. Also, with all the changes on the offensive coaching staff, I don't think he'll want to be spending less time with them. That would be even more the case if Love is the QB.

Rich Bisaccia is now available.

I'm assuming Bich Risaccia is a special teams ace of a coach, and even though I have no idea I say fire Drayton and hire this guy now. Even if he's not a ST coach but a mobster from Jersey, hire him. Can it be any worse than the worst, really?

I have a theory on this. I believe that MLF has been very busy with the assistant coaching shuffle, both losing and hiring new coaches. With all that activity, he didn’t want to send a negative vibe out to his existing coaches during a critical hiring phase.

My hope is he will can Drayton the minute he gets the positions filled. Of course, special teams should be one of the most important positions to fill after the playoff debacle. Perhaps he is lining up some candidates on the remaining playoff teams or already has feelers out to some other team’s assistants. We’ll see.

Worster. Worcestershire.

Drayton may have been the Worcestershire of coaching.

Special teams coach: "Rizzi would have been a good hire but Lombardi would struggle without better players than the ones they're (the Packers) using on teams."

I think we will hear more of this kind of talk.

In some ways, that is the result of carrying folks like Cobb on the roster. WR 4 and 5 should be ST aces I would think.

To potential hires does it not look like the org undervalues st if it is taking this lomg to fire drayton? I think people would like up for a job on a 13-4 team that can only improve on st. Like wtf? This would be an easy job to build your resume I think.

Or is there internal structural issues. Does Murphy and board flex there wanna be owner muscles on st??
