In the end, I think he’s a good coach but not as great as people act like he is. 9-8 in the playoffs isn’t particularly impressive when he had Drew Brees the majority of his coaching career. There are other coaches I'd hire before going to Payton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll be fired next year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The firing of Lovie Smith on the surface appears to be retaliatory for beating the Colts and costing the Texans the #1 pick. I remember many Jets fans in 2020 wanting management to tell the players to lose every game on purpose and go 0-16 just to get Trevor Lawrence.

Lol this entire time I've been blaming Staley for the playcalling on offense The defense hasn't exactly been stellar though. So not sure what's keeping him there still 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chargers probably just want anyone that will get them in the playoffs at this point. Funny thing is they keep letting their offensive coordinators go and then the eagles scoop them up and they win super bowls with them lol. Maybe they should look in house Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. It was speculated he was on his way out before that game was played. Lovie didn’t care about winning the game screwing up their draft because he knew he was on the outs anyway. Your premise is completely backwards. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiwieagle Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Well didn’t take long for Reich to land a job. Some risk here that maybe he looks to Kevin Patullo to be his OC given previous experience working together and success of Philly offence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LacesOut Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Hmmm I thought that the interim HC for the Panthers earned that job. Interesting that they went with Reich, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
