Reply to "Shoring up the Defense"

Yeah, Martinez makes tackles, so did AJ Hawk, but neither of them are playmakers and neither can cover in a passing league.

If you want a good defense you have to have your ILB cover and Martinez can't.

Had to drive for work yesterday, so listened in on the voice of the Queens Paul Allen's show on KFAN.

He has a recurring Monday morning segment with a guy who hosts a show called Packers Preview on that station (love that the Queens' radio home has a Packers show).

Anyway, after discussing the Packers-Redskins contest, Allen who never expresses an independent thought ever about the Queens and just spews what the organization spoon feeds him asked a seemingly throwaway question about the upcoming contest in Minneapolis a week from Sunday: 

"Blake Martinez, is his pass coverage still as bad as any linebacker in the NFL?"

To which the Packer Preview guy responded: "Yeah, it's not good. It's why Green Bay will part ways with him."
