Do you guys think Philbin might be a good replacement for Bevell if he leaves?
Has ties to John Schneider from their Green Bay days, had a big hand in developing Aaron Rodgers (so could be good for RW), and has run some good offenses (enough to get a HC job). Don't know if his style fits with what Pete wants to do, but wonder if he may be a good option if we lose Bevell.
Not an option at all. First of all, he didn't have a big hand in developing Rodgers. Mike McCarthy and Tom Clements are the ones who developed Rodgers....Rodgers himself has been very open about that. Secondly, he's never run an offense. The Packers offense belonged to McCarthy, and McCarthy was and has always been their play-caller. He hasn't been the play-caller in Miami either. He has no background in a run-first offense such as the one that PC employs, and he would be an atrocious personality/culture fit as the biggest complaint that his players in Miami have is that he is completely flat, unemotional and uninspiring. People need to divorce themselves from thinking that anyone with current or previous ties to the Packers/Schneider automatically make them a viable candidate in some capacity with the Seahawks. That's simply not the case.
