[QUOTE="Deleted member 6794, post: 710291"] There's no denying that the Packers defense hasn't performed at an adequate level for most of the last six seasons but in my opinion Thompson not providing enough talent is mostly to blame for it. I agree that the combination of TT and Capers isn't working and would have been fine with either of them being replaced this offseason. While it's true that it's extremely tough to win a Super Bowl the Packers benefit from having had the best quarterback in the league for several seasons yet have failed to clinch another title. That's in large part on Thompson. Rodgers had an impressive year during his first season as a starter finishing sixth in passer rating with the offense scoring the fifth most points in 2008. Once again the defense struggled and were the main reason the Packers didn't finish with a better record. Unfortunately there has been a position completely lacking talent on that side of the ball nearly every single season resulting in the defense struggling. In my opinion Capers is able to put a decent unit on the field if provided with at least average talent. Just take a look at 2015 when the unit didn't have any glaring weaknesses the defense finished 12th in points allowed. [/QUOTE]
