January 12, 20214 yr Lincoln Riley. He coached Hurts at Oklahoma and it would be a clear sign Hurts is the future QB. Wentz probably needs to go elsewhere. Still think if Rivers retires we could see him in Indy, reunited with Frank Reich. 1 minute ago, What The F said: Frank Reich. Get Carson back on track. More likely Carson goes to Indy (if Philip Rivers retires).

Still think if Rivers retires we could see him in Indy, reunited with Frank Reich. More likely Carson goes to Indy (if Philip Rivers retires). I disagree. Hurts barley won the starting job at Oklahoma. Also he played only 1 year with Riley. To think if Riley was hired it would automatically be Hurts team is silly. I believe Wentz will start for the Eagles in 2021
January 12, 20214 yr 1. Joe Brady -- Offensive mind, NFL experience. Young, so he fits into the "intermediate to long-term" success plan Lurie hypothesized. 2. Lincoln Riley -- Offensive mind, young. His 0 NFL experience scares me a little bit. 3. Robert Saleh -- Smart, well-spoken, holds players accountable. If he has a good offensive plan in mind, I'd be all about this.

Nor did I want Adam Gase. I would have been fine with Tom Coughlin. I think another coach also turned the Eagles offer down but I can't remember. I was just pointing out that the Eagles already had candidates turn down their job offer last go around when they were going for the structure in place where Howie has his hands over everything and a coaches say limited.
January 12, 20214 yr Can't believe no one has named this obvious perfect choice yet: Brody Offense, defense he cares about them both.
January 12, 20214 yr Author Off-season wish list: 1. Brian Daboll 2. DeVonta Smith (absolutely TORCHING the buckeyes right now) 3. Profit
January 12, 20214 yr List would be: a. Lincoln Riley (but he is not leaving OU so he doesn’t count) 1. Eric Bieniemy 2. Robert Saleh 3. Duce Staley 4. Ryan Day

January 12, 20214 yr Lurie has never hired a previous NFL HC. Coordinators, position coaches, college coach.
January 12, 20214 yr The hire really depends on what direction Lurie has envisioned for the team. Will Wentz be kept around due to financial reasons, or is the team going all in with Hurts? Which veterans are staying, and which are cap cuts/trades? What kind of rebuild are the Eagles pursuing? If Wentz is staying because of the contract hit, we need a guy who can command respect in the locker room, and that might mean hiring an established NFL head coach. If Wentz is getting shipped, the door is open wider.

January 12, 20214 yr I voted Lincoln Riley out of the list because I like his head coaching experience, even though it’s at the college level. I would rank my preferences as follows: A List — Riley, Daboll, Joe Brady, Pete Carmichael Jr. B List — Robert Saleh, Arthur Smith C List — Lovie Smith, Matt Eberflus, Eric Bienemy This needs some context, though, in terms of who the assistant coaches would be. Duce might not be a bad head coach if he’s surrounded by solid, experienced coordinators. P.S. I would laugh really hard if Lincoln Riley were named head coach and Jalen Hurts was traded shortly after. Some of you guys are making too much of that relationship. I took Lurie’s comments today to signal getting Wentz back on track is a high priority
