[QUOTE="Bobby Roberts, post: 13886, member: 260"] In the end, it's very unlikely that Bates will turn this defense from bottom to top 5 in one year, but that's not what he has to do for the Packers to be successful!!! All GB has to do is keep the offense in the top 5-10 range while improving the defense to be average -- around top 15. GB won 10 games and the division last year with the #25 defense. Give that same team an average to solid defense and I believe GB will be ready to take it to the next level. There is no question that GB is loaded with a ton of talented potential, but it is unproven. Bates is bringing a solid defense that emphasizes the basics. Everyday this defense is working on their tackling technique, a major weakness for GB. They are also working on being in the right position to make a play -- basics!! Get this defense back to the basics, and there will be improvements. Everyone was saying that last year, but the DC responded with excuses or quick fixes instead of solutions. It appears that this year GB is working toward solutions! GO PACK GO!!! [/QUOTE]
