You've opened my eyes to wanting to critique Philbin more.
I will say this; I did not like the Philbin hire and I thougt he was a fine OL coach
If we'd have hired another more qualifed OC we might be a heck of a lot better off.........with Philbin still being in charge of the OL as well
I'm not fan of Lovie Smith, but I LOVE what the Bears have done with their assistants lately in hiring very experienced, proven assistant coaches coaches who were once head coaches in Martz, Marinelli, and Tice.
Gotta have a lot of confidence in your own ability to hire guys who might be more knowledeable than the head coach.
