I said it's time to knock it out of the park with the next defensive coordinator, and I believe we have in Pettine. We now have a more aggressive GM that will use all methods of team building at his disposal, as opposed to his predecessor.The first offseason, and half of the regular season, has had some great moments, some head scratching moments, etc. Drafting a punter in the 5th round, drafting a long snapper, ridding ourselves of problem and/or performance issue players. This has been a period of beginning to rebuild the basic structure of the roster.Without the Barr hit, I firmly believe not much would have changed. Aaron Rodgers masked a lot of the weaknesses and deficiencies of this team. Thompson probably wouldn't be the GM right now if his health concerns are what I believe them to be, but I think there's no doubt that Barr driving Rodgers into the dirt, thus forcing the world to see a Packers team without him fluster, opened a bunch of eye balls.I'll always view it as a blessing in disguise. But we'll know for sure in the near future.</blockquote>
