[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 1073569, member: 7261"] Not sure I agree or disagree with the author of this article. He is only speculating and doesn't really offer up numbers that prove his theories of "This problem is deeper than a coordinator. It’s about how this franchise structures its entire roster" While I don't have the numbers either, but I would wager to guess that over the 2 decades which the Packers Special Teams have been at the bottom, they weren't always on the younger side roster wise. Yes, TT was Draft and Develop, but he had some older guys, that also played special teams. Seems like this is just an easy excuse with the current roster "They are the youngest team in the league, so they are gonna suck." The author kind of double downs on his lack of evidence by throwing out "Beyond just roster construction issues, the 2011 collective bargaining agreement limited practice time even more strictly, which made getting young players ready for the kicking game even more difficult." Well yes, but every team is facing this restriction, not just the Packers. Show me actual numbers of just how young every teams core of special teams players were over the last 2 decades, then we can have a more knowledgeable conversation. One thing is clear, at least he points it out with some numbers, over the last 2 decades the Packers special teams have been far from special. Finally, making your Special Teams coordinator a part time guy, by making him an assistant HC isn't the answer to fixing things. If the Packers think that because their special teams guy are so young they are always going to suck, then they should hire more coaches, to teach them how to play special teams better. [/QUOTE]
