The key to our defense in its present state of talent, is forcing turnovers.  We saw it with Mathews interception last Sunday.  So who takes the blame for either poor draft decisions or maybe poor coaching of those draft choices?  Think that blame can be spread around the whole organization.  Your defensive coordinator can lift the level of play up to some extent, but he isn't the one out there missing tackles, blowing an assignment or taking a stupid penalty.In Rogers and the Packers Offense I trust.  We will be just fine with an average defense.</blockquote>
