395 - Joe Barry is the Packers' New Defensive Coordinator

•

It’s Joe Barry. The Packers have made their pick for Mike Pettine’s replacement, and it’s two-time former defensive coordinator Joe Barry. He wasn’t Matt LaFleur’s first choice, and it doesn’t seem like he was any Packers fan’s first choice either. So what do we make of Barry? And how will he change things in Green Bay?


Assessing the Joe Barry hire

The Packers have made their pick. How did we get here?



What will Joe Barry’s scheme bring to the Packers?

Matt LaFleur hired Joe Barry because of his connections to the Vic Fangio scheme. What does that mean?



How will Joe Barry’s scheme affect the Packers’ personnel?

Scheme change probably won’t affect the Packers’ roster too much, but it could mean some changes for a few players.
