Wednesday Cheese Curds: Special teams is the Packers’ own “Groundhog Day”

It’s Groundhog Day, so the following story is appropriate.

The Green Bay Packers need a new special teams coordinator. Again.

The firing of Maurice Drayton should not come as a surprise after Green Bay’s abysmal performance in 2021 topped off by costing the Packers their season with two blocked kicks in the divisional round. Had the special teams been better, it’s very possible and maybe even likely the Packers are preparing for the Super Bowl instead of stewing over what might have been.

The writing was already on the wall for Drayton earlier in the year however and now Green Bay is stuck looking for yet another special teams coordinator.
