Bottom line, this is a mediocre football team. 

 

Without a fully healthy Rodgers, they are a 5-6 win team. At least how the defense is playing - despite what I think is a pretty good level of talent. They have 13 guys on defense who were first to fourth round picks (and 6 1st round picks). 

Despite the slew of high draft picks and the fact that Dom needs to go, I still wonder if the talent on D is really there. Seems as though it's a combination of problems.

Most scouts reporters interview think the following:

1. Clark and Daniels are great DL

2. CM3 still is a good player with a big motor. 

3. Martinez is a good ILB

4. The two safeties are individually talented players. 

It's not guys getting beat 1 x 1. It's guys running wide open through the middle of the defense. 

I don't believe they all completely suck...I think Clark is going to be a stud for a number of years.  If Dix is an, "individually talented player" why has he been so completely terrible/invisible this year even though he's been healthy? I think there are some good pieces/role players on the D but there doesn't seem to be enough guys who can step up and make big plays in big situations.

4th and 14..lets hope CAR pulls out an old playbook from the Capers era.

They will blitz. I'd target Spriggs

That's a case where I hate to be right - except they didn't need to blitz. Julius Peppers was probably laughing before the snap. He went against Spriggs in practice enough to know that he absolutely sucks.
