Nice hiring. Kind of like Bynum getting taught by Kareen in LA. Never hurts to have one of the best teaching your young guys.

i was listening to the radio and I heard.....Packers signed former steelers linebacker....

I was a little disappointing, but good overall move.

Didn't Reggie and Kevin Greene "have beef" in the ring ? Reggie has gotta be rolling in his grave. Again, more useless knowledge that I'm embarrassed to possess.

If he coaches like he played, great hire.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

I know that he had spent a few weeks over the past seasons with Pittsburgh....from what I heard very motivated, and the Steelers enjoyed having him. I don't think he has spent an entire season as a coach. IMO, he has been brought in to work specifically with Kampman, and try to get him ready, they have similiar motors.

He really seems to have a fantastic energy and passion when it comes to football. It also never hurts to have a guy with the THIRD most career sacks ever teaching guys how to pass rush.

MM/TT have done a great job with the defensive coaching staff this offseason. Just need a few player moves and we are definitely NFC North favorites heading into next year.

Well maybe Greg Lloyd isn't too far off. Rumor has it that former Steeler DB Darren Perry is expected to be hired as Packers DB Coach. Food for thought, just heard on 107.5 The Fan (Green Bay) from a few callers/emailers.
