[QUOTE="all about da packers, post: 111153, member: 227"] Perhaps because Jim Bates took almost the exact same unit under Slo and made them improve in areas, made teh tackling better, and stressed fundamentals? By the way some of our players on that side of the ball are playing, stressing fundamentals would go a long way towards making them develop as players. Also, how much did you see Nick Barnett celebrate after tackles last year? Granted he did it, but it wasn't after almost every tackle like this year. Bates was a calming influence, who had the respect of his players and the ability to motivate and make them believe in themselves. Look at the injuries last year, Ahmad Carroll, LB shuffle, only one good DT for just more than half the season, no depth and then tell me what Coach Bates did wasn't that big, Blackjackking, because it was. He is a top class DC, one that puts confidence in his players on Sunday, one who has seen almost everything, one who can give the players an extra burst of energy. But most importantly, HE was the one who was best in understanding/calling the scheme the Packers use right now. [/QUOTE]
