It wasn't Hackett it was Russ. Stop being a homer. So Hackett calls a play a guy is wide open over the middle. Because he's "Liiiiiimitttteeeed" in that regard, he naturally doesn't take it and the team loses out on points...and you blame the coach?

Russ is cooked, but Hackett was a spineless moron. He let Russ do whatever the **** he wanted. So long as he got in his Hackett hugs it was totally fine for Russ to get preferential treatment. It’s now easy for Payton to take away all of Russ’s toys because the team supports a totally new approach, but if he were the coach last year he would have told Russ to go **** himself. The parking space, the office, the personal trainers in the building… all of it would have been stopped. |

Yeah, Payton isn't exactly known for instilling discipline in his players or demanding accountability. Not sure where that came from. Hell, most of their star players were constantly involved in drama, to the detriment of the team.

Not trying to defend Hackett, but remember what Denver gave up for Wilson. He held all the cards. Payton (who may/may not enforce anything) is a proven HC with a SB ring. That carries more weight than being a guy Rodgers liked, especially considering they did not land Rodgers.

Didn't New Orleans have a bottom tier, soft defense for most of his tenure? So soft that they resorted to bounties he turned a blind eye too...ya so tough and discipline they were. Finesse offense too...
