[QUOTE="Greg C., post: 144662, member: 195"] I'll do my best to answer your questions--in reverse order. 3. There was no fan outcry. Because of the zone blocking scheme, it was expected that the Packers would promote from within, and Philbin was the most logical candidate. Hiring a more big-name coordinator would've meant scrapping the blocking scheme after one year, after having drafted linemen who were a good fit for the system. 2. It's hard to tell how well Philbin did as O-line coach last year. He had a lot of young players, and it was a brand new scheme, so the up-down performance was probably inevitable. There was some improvement toward the end of the season, and hopefully Philbin had something to do with that. 1. We don't know this guy yet, so most of us don't know whether or not we like him. Because McCarthy calls the plays, it may take us awhile to decide if we like Philbin. [/QUOTE]
