Kampman is our best DL
Pickett is a better DT than williams

"jdog2"How did they get into fg position. They started on the 2 yard line
Thats our defense.....or lack of it, that is.
The D coordinator needs to go.....now. (Actually about 8 weeks ago)
Now even if they finally do the right thing and axe him, it's too late for it to make any difference.
Our year is toast. We are toast.

"all_about_da_packers""dingus""jdog2"Sanders is going to be the scapegoat of this season
You ain't a scapegoat when it's deserved
Our best D-linemen this year goes down in Jenkins.
Our best pass rusher is not the same in KGB.
Our best DT pass rusher is traded, and not replaced.
Our original starting strong safety who broke out last year has been riddled with injuries.
Our DTs have been below par in depth.
That is surely Sanders fault. [/sarcasm]
Look, Sanders doesn't deserve to go un-blamed, but at the end of the day this D is lacking some major pieces up front.
I agree on the injuries but the D on the field still has lots of talent and should be performing better than this. BAD coaching.

"packedhouse02"Off season, if I'm Murphy I gotta look right now at Thompson and say "dude, you put this team together.
I also have to look at McCarthy and say you're butt is on the line too.
You're the coach and the guy who is supposed to have this team prepared.
I'll agree with you.
There is a consistent trend with us coming out and starting the game slowly. Given that the "First 15" are supposed to be the scripted plays you run first, and have spent most of your practice time working on, there is a clear problem with execution. Coaches need to find a way to fix it.
Third downs, today we were terrible. Our D is struggling, and if we can't convert to keep them off the field then we are in very very big trouble.
Today's game proves that even having favourable field position means the D will struggle to get stops.

Our starters today at RE were Michael Montgomery, and at LB Desmond Bishop.
Montgomery, on any playoff team, would've been hard pressed to be active on game day.
Bishop is a great run stuffer, hard hitter. He was our Will LB today. He had to play in coverage. Bishop = terrible in coverage. He bit on moves of a TE quite a few times.
Coaching hasn't been great, but then again you don't have the sheer talent to overcome devastating injuries to your best players on D like the Giants have done.
Coaching, after today's game, clearly cannot go un-questioned. But the problem isn't simply coaching....

The problem isn't just the coaching, it's also the vanilla defensive scheme we're running. It's clearly not working.

You are of course correct, but this team time and again is in the wrong position.
The defense line, talent wise, is awful.
But the D Coordinator has to take the hit because it's his job to prepare to play with what he has.
And there are others too, Ted Thompson and Mike McCarthy toname just two.

Why the heck did we punt when it was tied 21-21?
I know that it was a long field goal in bad weather, but I have faith in Crosby.
It really didn't matter about the field position, the Texans marched down the field as if it was nothing and got in field goal range.
Really it would have been better if they DID kick the field goal and if Crosby missed it, I still think it would have been better.
We would have had time left on the clock to make some kind of attempt on a drive down the field to win the game.
I don't know, just my opinion.

Watching Packers games almost makes me cry each week. We always seem to lose in the last couple of minutes. I can't take it anymore
