[QUOTE="Sunshinepacker, post: 662510, member: 9033"] McCarthy knows that Matthews is the best OLB on the team. So obviously he wants to put his best OLB at OLB. So his comments to that effect were made in the hopes that Ryan, Barrington and/or a draft pick could man the ILB spot. This is not complicated. The Packers had a few good OLBs and some decent OLBs and zero decent ILBs. So you move the only OLB capable of playing inside to ILB. The defense was better with a subpar Matthews at ILB than it would have been with a different, bad ILB. You seem to believe that what McCarthy said about Matthews playing outside is set in stone. I guarantee that if the ILBs don't develop or aren't added then Matthews will be right back inside again this year. The defense wanted to get the best players on the field. It's simple. [/QUOTE]
