But it has always made more sense if your going to trade Rogers to do it after this year. |

The Packers sticking with Capers and letting the defense stagnate as a result wasted what should've been a much wider championship window during the early Rodgers years. It'd be like if the Chiefs wasted the fist years of Mahomes by sticking with Sutton and making timid moves towards fixing the defensive personnel instead of the complete overhaul in both scheme and talent that played a huge part in winning Super Bowl 54.

The Packers were beaten by the NFC Champion in most of those years. And, they lost those games in a variety of ways. If the Packers are spending up to the cap, and competing for the Super Bowl as often as they are, this criticism of their front office is just plain nonsense. I guess Wisconsin Chief wants to congratulate himself for being a Chiefs fan and can criticize the Packers to make him feel better for his choice, but the Packers have been well run and they pay their players. Ted Thompson was in charge until he got sick and Aaron Rodgers never complained about him, and never will. |

Dom Capers was the DC when the packers won the Super Bowl. It’s understandable why they kept him for a few years, particularly when they just had some rotten injury luck on the defensive side of the ball in the years following. I think our defensive coaching staff is too good for this to happen to us, but imagine if the Chiefs for the next few years start to stagnate a bit on defense. Say we have to let honey badger walk, we struggle to draft a single top end starter on that side of the ball to replace the ones getting older, and we get some bad injuries here and there. In hindsight years afterward, people go, “Why did we keep Spags for so long when he was only fielding a good defense for one year??!!” That’s kind of how I see the Dom Capers issue |

He'll be much cheaper next year. Paton might not have to give up anything more than a pick in the 20's in 2022.

This thread title ends in a question mark?
Has all your success blunted you to the reality that there's a whole League out there? |

It would also be, in my opinion, a perfectly reasonably time to mortgage the future (cap and/or draft picks) trying to win another title or two with the expectation of some painful rebuilding down the line. You can't reasonably plan on drafting back to back future HOF QBs. Even if GB actually managed to do it. |

Watson and the NFL owe Rodgers some jack for the distraction...they couldn't have a sexual deviant be the main narrative all off-season.
