January 11, 20214 yr Wow. I thought Doug deserved at least another year. Clearly needed an OC and maybe that was the breaking point. Thank you Doug - you brought us our first Super Bowl and will never be forgotten for that.
January 11, 20214 yr PLEASE for the love of God finish the job Jeff ... fire that rat-faced weasel Howie too!!!!!
January 11, 20214 yr Im surprised he was fired honestly. I figured he would get at least one more year because of the super bowl. If it wasn’t for that he was as good as gone. But the super bowl bought him time. I wonder what Lurie is thinking now.

Have to say, Lurie does not F around, he makes the hard decisions when needed. Best of luck to you Doug, thanks for the greatest year ever. No, the real hard decision that Lurie needs to make but is too scared to make is to fire his buddy Howie. Until he does that, nothing much will change. While I agree that Doug needed to go, he is the current scapegoat for Howie and Lurie. How many coaches has Roseman survived now? 3? 4?

It's gonna be just like when Brady forced the Pats to get rid of Garopallo.

Only because I'm not sure who they think they can bring in who's actually going to be able to help reshape the direction of this team. No good young bright coach is going to want to touch this job for the reasons you have stated above. I have to assume that Lurie and Howie already have their horse picked out and are in communication with that person's agent. If they don't, I think this was a bad move.

January 11, 20214 yr OMG promoting Press is the worst decision in Eagles history (one in a series of F ups)

Bienemy is going to get a lot of hype (deservedly so) but I would be in favor of Daboll if we are keeping Wentz. Especially given what he did with Josh Allen I liked Daboll more also. Not that I expect Bienemy to fail. I just think we have gone to the Reid tree already. Lets go elsewhere.
