If they don’t start 3-0 I don’t think they’re man enough to handle it. Legit shot at a 0-16 type of year. Likely not going to happen given the crap division but this is a dumpster fire team.

Yea our offense just wasn’t bad in 2020, it’s been bad since 2017. Doug is responsible, along with others but this vanilla looking crap has been frustrating. And no one in our building seems to know how to design plays either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He deserved it by that point and even earlier than that. If Carson's only reason for the Doug hate is that, then Wentz needs to go. Now if it's about the system Doug was running and lack of adjustments, then I would get it. Who cares about him holding anything against Doug. If they’re firing Doug because they’re catering to Wentz then I’m far more concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wentz did deserve to be benched, but also deserved to be TOLD he was being benched. I still say this: the Eagles franchise invested a lot of money and time into Carson Wentz. Over most of his career he's been a good and at times an elite QB. Doug's success in 2017 probably had more to do with his assistants than it did with him, I think we all recognize that. We had to pick one. The choice was obvious!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CalgarEAGLES Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Behind the eight-ball, now. No head coach, no defensive coordinator, a bunch of leftover consultants which translates to no official OC. Next head coach will bring his own team & put Howie Rosemancantmindurdangbizness back in the basement. He’s probably shaking in his shorts if Jeff Lurie suddenly sends him a text to come down & meet him in Florida... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was probably Howie's last bargaining chip. Good luck finding a coach that will fix that disaster. If it is any college coach worth a damn (Riley or Day) I think Wentz is gone and that coach has the green light to draft a QB.

Unless Lurie and Howie got their guy secretly. Maybe Urban? We are not behind IF the man they want is already in the Building. Just make him HC, and then bring in a real OC and a new QB Coach.

Whose to say Wentz didn’t go cry the blues up to Lurie about how the playcalling sucks and our game plans are high school level. I’m not taking Wentz side but there’s tons of info we don’t know yet or may never know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manz2821 Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Maybe Dorsey gets incharge of players and Howie for the cap only? That will make some sense to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He gave kelly all the power enough rope to hang himself and he did so out he went, then with doug just the opposite strip him of all responsibility give all the power to the GM then when doug fails fire him instead if the guy making all the choices. Just stupid stuff, I'm beginning to think Howie is Luries secret boy toy cuz doesn't add up how Howie has outlasted 3 coaches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will see how this shakes out I've heard that argument before, and I don't think so. I think plenty of coaches would like to "fix" a franchise that had a terrible year. Especially one that has plenty of good pieces in place (Yeah. We do!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
