Chili Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 The people complaining that TT has not done a good enough job bringing in better defensive pieces need to remember he was the one after all that drafted pro bowlers Hayward and Hyde as well as bringing in Peppers who still managed to get 11 sacks in his age 37 season. These three guys are proof that we DID have the defensive pieces to go with Daniels, Matthews, Shields etc. On paper and with hindsight we should've had an elite defence but we never did and that is ultimately down to Capers with his poor system and coaching. I can't blame TT for our woes on defence. Capers 100% to blame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players not playing as well as they should have, injuries devastating a unit, bad freaking luck, etc. all play a part in this thing. A Coach is never 100% to blame.

IrishGreen Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Think Thompson was extremely good in the beginning, but I think his results have tailed off a bit in recent years. Think the Cobb deal just wasn't a good one at all, for example. Drafting has been fine, but nothing spectacular. Extremely hard to tell though, because I think Capers has been garbage for the past 5 years, so hard to judge personnel when the scheme/system is a complete joke. Think it's time to move on tbh. Have a lot of respect for Ted for what he gave us, but I think it's time for new blood in there (I realize it'll prolly be Wolf). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I understand Ted's contract is up after 2018 so he'll probably retire after this upcoming season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A day in which both Dom and Ted got their long overdue walking papers? No way. But I could see how some of the more devout Ted/Dom fans might want to mourn in private, while Packer fans celebrate the organization's wise moves.
