Packers: Why Mike Pettine is the right choice for defensive coordinator

Out with the old and in with the new.

It took only nine days after the firing of Dom Capers for the Green Bay Packers to find their new defensive coordinator.

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported Tuesday that the 2018 season will mark the beginning of the Mike Pettine era in Green Bay.

The move may be met with skepticism, mainly because the last time Pettine had a job in the NFL, he was the head coach of a 3-13 Cleveland Browns team.

However, I’m here to tell you that Pettine’s inability to fix the litany of problems in Cleveland does not in any way make him a bad hire.
