January 21, 20214 yr Just now, NOTW said: Perhaps Burke the D line coach, they continue to be a solid unit and were among the league leaders in sacks. For the money they invested in the D line they had better look decent. The thing about Fipp is he's played DB as well as coached the position several times.

As for Nick, seems as though he was a standout WR at Mount Union, they won 3 Division 3 titles when he was there. At the very least he has a great support system when times get really hard, which they will sooner or later. It's stupid on my part but I really hope Jeff and Howie let Nick sink or swim with guys he wants around him. Sure help him out year 1 and maybe 2 but after that they need to back the hell off.

January 21, 20214 yr On Duce: He doesn't have to have had prior experience as a coordinator, there are position coaches that become head coaches. Reid was a QB coach, never a coordinator. Doug was barely an OC in KC, really a QB coach as well. Harbaugh was a special teams coach. Head coach candidates don't have to have play calling experience as an OC or DC. It's a good thing to have IMO, but coaches have succeeded without it. In fact, we've wanted Doug here to not call plays and just be the game manager and let the OC call plays. Duce is "qualified" in title by being an Asst HC the last 3 seasons. But no one has any clue what he did. All we hear from players is that he's great, they love and respect him. Ok, he's a former player and they get along with him that's great. It also could be a problem when so many players are tweeting they want Duce and they pass him over, is that a potential locker room issue? A new coach might want to clean house, or he might embrace him and utilize his knowledge of the team being here so long. We'll see. No other team has wanted to interview Duce, not even to easily satisfy the Rooney Rule. I don't get the hype for him to be a HC. It's also hard to know who does what on this coaching staff, they had 16 consultants and assistant offensive coaches and the offense stunk.
January 21, 20214 yr Is this literally the last guy they interviewed? Well it worked with Doug. Maybe it works again...

Would be nice, but they couldn’t even do that for Doug, after a Super Bowl win.... and a freakin statue. Lurie wouldn’t even let Rocky Balboa hire his own trainer!! "Micks to old, gotta get younger”

January 22, 20214 yr 31 minutes ago, 20dawk4life said: Do you think the colts wr coach will be a good OC? I dont know. But not hiring a OC and doing an OC by committee trick didnt work out too well. It was a full blown coach and qb killing disaster. i honestly think a HC should have a buffer between the franchise qb. Especially when the franchise qb needs "special” attention.

January 22, 20214 yr After thinking hard about this new hire... bottom line- Lurie gave Howie the coach he wanted...a young unknown who he can control at every turn. Howie was afraid of how strong a man Josh McDaniels is, and wanted no part of him, after all. Until this org hires a real coach who hires his own staff and has some real power- like most other NFL teams, the Eagles will be a dysfunctional joke. I am backing the new coach, because the deck is STACKED against him, and he is our Eagles coach. I'll give him time and try not to turn on him too quickly. But make no mistake... this is Lurie and Howie's new, young puppet. I hope he succeeds and outlasts Howie this time around. I hope THIS coach becomes Howie's downfall.

By all accounts I've seen, Howie wanted McDaniels, but Lurie wasn't sold on him.

What makes you think the HC and Howie aren't on the same page with this. One of the things the team was impressed with was Sirianni's choices for his staff. Note aside - the staff that the FO assembled for Dougie won a SB. Dougie dropped the ball in replacing coaches who were poached by other teams.
January 22, 20214 yr Check out the video embedded in this link. Dan Orlovsky said his sources called Sirianni the steal coaching hire of this cycle (even if Jeff McLane said he's smart but not super smart) https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/30753841/philadelphia-eagles-hiring-nick-sirianni-head-coach-sources-say
January 22, 20214 yr For those of you thinking Sirianni is going to look to hire Marcus Brady (Indy QB coach) as his new OC, you can forget about that. https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2021/01/21/report-colts-promote-marcus-brady-to-offensive-coordinator/

Howie by all accounts was the McDaniels advocate.
