FS / SS. If Collins was still around, we probably wouldn't have Haha. Besides, Burnett has been solid. This is a guy who missed one snap for the games he was active for in 2012 and 2013. I think it was around 80 total this year. One mistake doesn't take away what he's done since he got to GB.

Im not a big fan of morgan. He played good last week but he's terrible in coverage. Good tackler, sure.

imo, packers gotta clean house. Get rid of devon house. Aj hawk. Tramon williams. Dom capers. Maybe mccarthy too. Thats two games this year now vs the seahawks where GB came in with a conservative game plan.

They wont win the big one again as long as capers is d coord.. We got lucky in 2010 with the bend but dont break mentality and leading the league in defensive turnovers. Need a physical defense and the packers are far from it right now

He a strong safety. By trade, coverage shouldn't be his strong suit.

Capers and MM aren't going anywhere. They made it too far this year, and it's likely that due to having an elite QB, they will continue to make it too far to change things.

Hawk and Brad Jones will be around for another year. They each have one more year on their contracts and are due too much money to cut.

A physical defense doesn't mesh well with a pass heavy offense. Teams like Seattle, SF, and a few years ago the Jets are able to use those defenses because their offense starts with the run game.

Burnett had an outstanding year, and for a rookie, HaHa played a great season as well. But yeah, losing Collins was big.

Cleaning house when you just made the NFCCG and should have won (/cry) is silly. We'll be able to keep our team almost entirely intact next year with only few key FAs, which should all be extended without much difficulty. We'll hopefully add a piece at ILB in the draft and depth elsewhere. Aside from having a rough schedule next year, there's no reason why we shouldn't be back in the NFCCG again. We're young, our core is locked up, whole team has playoff experience, things look good for the future.

Everyone misses nick collins this defense hasnt been the same since he got injured but burnett and haha and micah hyde were a pretty good back end this year burnett had like 130 tackles from the safety spot how often do u see a safety get that many tackles lol our weak spot on defense is cleary our linebackers other than clay and peppers id bring back tramon,bush,kuhn and yes i would bring back davon house he hasnt been terrible i think our secondary is a solid group id let raji go to free agency unless we can sign him for cheap our dline did well without him no point in over paying for a dlineman

Stupid meme, really, and not even funny.
Always been plenty of Seahawks fans.
I've been a fan since before I joined jsp.

Burnett was second among safeties this year with 91. That's probably inflated due to ILB being terrible most of the year. But tackles are a stupid stat anyway. "If a tree falls in a forest, does Keuchly get an assist?"

Dude watch the replay of the interception, the only person near him is two offensive lineman still in their respective spots..

He gains at least 20 and puts us at the 40-35 line which is damn close to field goal range..
Man you can NOT slide with five minutes left.

Overall, McCarthy bitched out and called a shitty game at the end and was not aggressive enough.

I'm extremely disappointed that we lost because this team was special and we may not see this again for some time.

Hope we sign Cobb, and Tramon played well all year but chances are that he's gone. Buluga.. Idk we lose some key players.

And FOR GOD SAKES if we have AJ Hawk and Brad Jones in the starting lineup.. I'll murder somebody.

Picks up more yardage, has a chance to return it. But the key blocker there that can spring him, Peppers, is telling him to go down. I definitely missed that part of it.
