Bob Sanders, Carl Hairston, Robert Nunn, Kurt Schottenheimer, Lionel Washington and Rock Gullickson...all gone. 

Those six pay the price for the Packers fall from a top 10 defense to the bottom ten in most NFL categories.

And now two things remain....assistant Head Coach/Linebackers Winston Moss, and the players.  Yes, the scheme and communication between Sanders and the players was flawed...but clearly it's on the players to perform better as well.  There wasn't anyone other than Aaron Kampman capable of rushing the QB...and that's inexcusable. 

And two, Moss may be a rising star...already getting one interview with the Rams for their head coaching opening.  But last I checked, it was A.J. Hawk who muddled along, Nick Barnett who spun his wheels before getting hurt, and Brady Poppinga played the best of all 3 LB's...and that might be the most damaging statement of all.  And all of that happened under Moss' watch, so he needs to be accountable as well.
