Let me just say this it's really a group-wide post more to any one person. I think you're way overthinking some stuff. It's week 16, 11-5 which is the majority of people had us finishing here so I am a bit perplexed by your angst.
Defense, my goodness we have so many folks here with short memories, We beat this horse to death before and during preseason but I'll try again. This whole 3/4 to 4-3 plug-and-play nonsense and why it's not that simple has been on full display.
It was never ever going to be simple or a quick perfect fix.
Depth, ditto see above: As a group when AR left looking at the cap and personal we almost all agreed it was a 3-year deal to get restocked. This next draft and FA cycle should be those finishing touches. It's always nice to want more quickly but in reality, we do not have all the horses in the barn to run the race.
ML, his record his first 5 years is stellar, his win % is top 5/7 all time. Is he perfect? Nope but come on some of you are a bit out there with the criticism. He's a hell of a lot better than Fat Albert and his jimmy john menu call sheet. (Dallas fans know now)
Vikings game thoughts a day later. GB came off of a hell of a 3 game run the NFL put them through. It's extremely hard to game plan and execute perfectly in that back to back to back situation. I think we had tired legs and minds, not just players but coaches too.
WR thoughts gotta hold those passes when they are in your hands. Just that simple. Paid pros who are second in the league in drops say enough. I don't agree that a vet player fixes it at all. Draft one high.
Love, as stated last night. You can't bitch at him trying to make plays and he throws picks then come back and complain when he's very ho-hum. Turn him loose like it's a two-minute drill in a pistol set. You saw that in the last 5 minutes... green light it in the first 5.
I am not mad about winning 11 and getting in.
BOTTOM LINE: We need more talent in key positions to make a run. Stop expecting safties to play slot corner and guards to play OT and wonder What happened to the Packers?
this all
