I think we can all agree Moss would be a great choice.  He has the MLB's playing lights-out football on a consistent basis.  

This pattern has repeated on every stop of Dom's career as a HC/DC. His defenses start out well, and then get worse every season after reaching a peak near the top of the league. I'd have to guess it's a combination of him becoming too complex/cute with his scheme as things improve, and being a poor communicator in the locker room, someone that the guys just tune out once things go poorly.

The Saints don't have any more talent then the Packers right now on defense. You have to be out of your mind to honestly say that this group can't at least be a mid-ranked defense. Dom is coaching for his job in the second half. I've been one of the biggest Capers backers on this board for years, but he really has to figure out some way to save this team's season in the second half.

 

I think about 90% of the board is on board with your thoughts.

 

Capers coaching for his job in 2nd half. Absolutely ridiculous this defense!

 

The one thing I'll say is this defense was great against the run early in the season. WTF happened!?!? 

 

...and if you said it last year, you were wrong. Saying it this year, you're right.

 

You can't be predicting rain for 10 straight years, then when it rains scream "SEE!?!? I'm RIGHT!"

....and what about the offense?  Who gets the kick in the nuts there?  MM?

We ran a successful screen with Lacy to slow down the pass rush at the start. Why are we not going back to that?

 

Capers is not only playing CJ in single coverage but playing Shields soft. That 15 yard pass play is there alllll day.

 

MM bears blame during this streak as well. He has his team playing with NO sense of urgency and is running this offense scared. It's just a mess right now and I cannot believe one player in Rodgers out translates in mass suck at every other phase of the game.

I couldn't agree more in that MM bears alot of blame for this mess.  It's like he's given up.  His playing calling sucks.  He is the head coach, and he has to be held accountable for the way this team is playing now.  Him and TT have screwed up the backup QB situation big time as well.

MM has been riding Rodgers coat tails.  He looks totally lost out there without Rodgers.

To be fair, hard to make a Hawk/Jones duo be any good. No clue how Moss would do as a DC though, don't really want to find out
