No harm in giving the guy a look. My guess is it doesn't work out, but you never know. I have faith in our coaching staff.
I had fath in the Defenive coaching staff that they would make some adjuments before the playoffs. Boy Was I wrong.
Right now I have little to no fath in the D Coaching Staff.
How long has Dom Capers been coaching? How successful has he been? What makes anyone believe that over the space of the most recent off season he suddenly lost all of that knowledge?
Hit it right on the head. Fans calling for Capers to be fired because of this one season are just acting ridiculous. We had a top 5 defense in 2010. Last year we ranked 32 in passing yards, but 19th (14th before we rested starters in week 17) in points allowed and 1st in turnovers. No, our defense wasn't great, yes we gave up a ton of yards last year, but the defense wasn't as bad as everyone likes to think it was, kind of like our running game the year before, when people were panicked and pissed off because we didn't trade the house for Marshawn Lynch. The run game wasn't great, but it was good enough and we won a championship with it. The same could be said about our defense this year- Not great, but more than capable of winning a championship with it.
The 2009 Packers defense was 7th in the league in points surrendered. It was second in yards allowed and led the league the league in INTs. You meant “horrible” for Packers’ opponents, right?In those fans defense, Capers and the Packers defense sandwiched one great season (2010) between two HORRIBLE seasons (2009 and 2011). A lot of people forgot how bad the defense was in 2009 because of the Super Bowl in 2010.
