Phil, what do you see in this hire that says "we can win playoff games with this guy as our OC"?

I think you're reading me wrong. I'm not arguing FOR Daboll. I'm arguing against the assumption that he's going to be awful. You'll very rarely see me be 100% for or against a guy. I'd rather wait and see. I've learned enough lessons over the years to understand that some seemingly mediocre guys pleasantly surprise us and the guys we think are going to do well are sometimes our worst nightmare. Daboll may well be an offensive genius. Who knows?
What I do know is that a green QB coach probably had about 3% influence over Brett Favre's play in 2008. He probably fetched Brett's coffee and Jenn Sterger in between queuing up game film.
