If Wentz can't take criticism, coaching and a deserving benching, then he needs to go, too. If that guy has the power over the coaches then I don’t see any coach worth his salt wanting this job. 1 minute ago, Maga301 said: 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 What you’re writing is kind of worse. Is this guy really going behind the coaches back to the owner to complain about the coaches? If he has that kind of power then he’s completely uncoachable.

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. Being reported that Doug and Howie disagreed on personnel. I think when Doug when realized that Howie was staying decided he had enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace Nova Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Thank you for bringing the 1st ever Super Bowl Championship to the city of Philadelphia! You did what no other coach in the history of Philadelphia was able to do! Thank you for everything you have done for this organization over the past 5 years and thank you for being among the nicest, most sincere and loyal coaches this city has ever had the pleasure of having. You were under-appreciated when you were hired, even mocked by many "experts" but you proved them ALL wrong by winning the Super Bowl the very next year with a backup QB names Nick Foles. You will always and forever be remembered among "The Greats" in this city! I wish you the best and continued success wherever you go!!! THANK YOU COACH PEDERSON!

Look back in the Eagles history and you will see all the FO/NFL minds he outlasted too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I don’t disagree, but we’re talking about a frustrating season here. Coaches and players did not seem to be on the same page ever.

Djkenny13 Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 I think the main reason Howie keeps his job is Bc of the Eagles Cap situation. Although they can roll money over from this year, who else can get them out of this situation? Thats a main reason I think he’s safe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QBhunter58 Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 I hope our new coach comes in and declares an open competition at the QB spot. I think wentz can rebound if he is coached right, but if he doesn't, I do not want him getting the job just cause we owe him big bucks. Let the best player play.

JetroLot Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 I know we're pretty much all in agreement, but yet again it seems like Howie Roseman being a human hemorrhoid was yet again a huge issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This sadly limits the hiring options. Yeah how do you fix a player who doesn’t believe he needs to be fixed, and if he doesn’t like what you’re saying could get you fired?

philafan4o8 Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 2 minutes ago, Infam said: 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!). Aside from a handful of players, we have no clue who is going to survive when Howie starts cutting players to hit the cap. Not only does he need to find a way to free up $50M but he still needs more space for the rookie they draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad GM No ability to hire staff Old Team No Cap Space "Franchise QB" that is overpaid and arrogant Refer to #1 Still one of the premier jobs in the NFL.

My line of thinking is that Andy was not an OC before he became a HC. Harbaugh was a ST Coach, not a Coordinator. So it can be done. Duce does NOT need to be an OC before he becomes a HC, IMO.

judunno Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 7 minutes ago, EazyEaglez said: Whatever they do, it would be wise for them to let the new coach pick his staff. Knowing them it’s highly unlikely they will. You're probably right with the continued overreach considering that they caught lightening in a bottle where all the stars aligned and they got a ring out of it.

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. We will see how this shakes out Howie probably isn't even feeling the pinch that's the joke! I don't think there's a young bright coach out there that will want to touch this situation. I hope I'm wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if they take into account the fanbase. Your franchise QB should be beloved. If Wentz comes back, he is in for 16 road games because of these reports/rumors.

Infam Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 I think all in all Mr. Roseman did a pretty decent job. Not flawless, but not too bad neither. I know, I am pretty alone with that opinion.. its still true though if you look at it without your anger over a terrible season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psychodog Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 With the firing, they'll take a WR with their 1st day pick and Wentz will be given another shot/year to iron out his sh!t play, with a receiver that can....well....make plays. If he doesn't improve with the OLine healthy and a decent receiver, he'll be gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
