I think they've got to throw Rollins on IR and promote or sign someone not to mention the other injuries. They've got CB Herb Waters and S Jermaine Whitehead on the practice squad for secondary depth. Waters is at least familiar with the defensive system since he was with the team through training camp and has been on the PS the bulk of the season. Since both Shields and Goodson went down, the CBs have been basically held together by chewing gum and rubber bands and they're gonna need some depth for the playoffs. After a scary neck injury like that with Rollins, and given his play, I think you just shut him down for the year.

During the 90's the Packers used to bring LeRoy Butler to the line of scrimmage and blitz him. That was because he could do it, not because he couldn't cover.


I really didn't watch Clinton-Dix too much. I was watching the replacement DB's more and for the most part they were in position. Sometimes, a pass is jut too perfect and you can't defend it. I think we should give some credit to some of the accurate throwing processional quarterbacks instead of always ridiculing and belittling the Packers players.

It is funny but when Randall and Rollins went down and we were forced to play Gunter and all our safeties the coverage improved, the safeties are not as polished as R&R but they finish every play, they don't stop in the middle of the play to peek at the backfield and they tackle better.

Gunter, Hyde, HaHa, Brice, Evans, that's the secondary that worked for us.... Funny
