Packers had a lot of discipline related issues. And I think they were mostly, if not all, on the defensive side of the ball.

Another thing is the players didn’t quit on him this year. I don’t know if that’s because they are buying into what he’s coaching, or if it’s more of a testament to the players we have. 

Regardless, if Jim Leonhard is available & interested, I would move on from Barry. If Leonhard is not interested, I can see why they would keep Barry.

Interesting how you choose to remember the first half of the season, but ignore the entire 2021 season. Fascinating.

I don’t care about 2021. This defense was hyped up and on paper should’ve easily been top 5 this year. That didn’t happen, and usually when you have such a highly talented unit that underperforms so badly, that’s a coaching problem. His lack of adjustments in many areas (play calling, scheme, moving players around, etc) this year was glaring, and it took until December to see anything change. It also took his players telling him what to do in order to see success. That’s horrible. 

Unfortunately, similar things can be said about LaFleur.
