Hearing that doug pederson is in kc to finalize deal to become #chiefs offensive coordinator. Just landed so not sure if out there

Is this good...?

uhhh

who

wasn't there a shitty QB like 10 years ago named Doug Pederson? Is that him?

Seems under-qualified, but I really have no clue.

I think he was a shitty backup somewhere.

What happened to the immenent Brad Childress signing in the other thread?

The Packersification begins...

Well that would be another guy on the staff that has worked specifically with QB's.

I think Reid will call the plays.

Packersification is good. They win LMAO. Um Chilly is gona help Doug out so ill take the wait and see approach

That was only 95% for sure.

Well he never coached for them, only played with the Packers.

Seems like a pupil type hire where Reid is gonna trust him more and hired Childress to be able to help Pederson along.

I'm not excited by the hire, but As a combo package with Childress it's a nice get.

I agree.

Wtf? Is Pederson the OC or is Chilly?

Make up your minds!

Is Chilly officially on board, yet?

Solari supposed to be happy or pissed about this?

lol i think so

Ah yes, he was Brett Favre's shitty backup.

He was the QB coach for the Eagles

Pederson was the Eagles QB before McNabb took over. He sucked. Decent QB coach, but I liked Shurmur better. I'm not sure how he'd be as OC.

Didn't he say he wouldn't?

We'll see how he turns out. Not judging if we have no history to show whether or not the guy is good or not.

Why, yes...yes there was. In 1999 Reid brought a shitty QB with him to Philly when he came. Guy by the name of Doug Pederson. He sucked. Badly. Idea was Reid would draft a QB and let Pederson run the team with his system until the new QB picked it up well enough to be competent. I think he lasted six games before the Eagles fans booed him off the field and not so humbly requested McNabb learn the job the old fashioned way...under center.

Its a new idea i like it. Well see. He wasnt good as a QB but he'll know how a QB thinks in situations so that may or may not help

I didn't hear that but who knows.

I don't really get it. Not dig'n it at all really.

WTF has Childress been here for two days then? He's not taking less than the OC.

I thought they were considering Penderson for QB coach?

Quick!

Ask your source.

Seems shitty players make better coaches.

I'm pretty sure he started for the Iggles early in McNabb's rookie year, back in the Stone Age when rookie QBs were expected to stfd and stfu. And he was bad, as I recall.

EDIT: Whoops. Asked and answered already.

Asst HC i bet

ahh yes, I remember now.

Im not gona over analyze this. Wait and see approach

Not a good QB, but has been with Reid a majority of the 14 years. Said to be a really upcoming offensive mind.

Remember, Childress got his start at QB coach too.

Childress is still coming on board, but he's going to be a senior offensive assistant/assistant HC.

I like the new approach. He's putting guys in place that are up and coming. It's not the same garbage retreads.

Chilly will be an advisor with Reid to Pederson

Assistant HC?

This doesn't mean Childress won't end up in KC. I'm sure he'll still end up here.

I don't think anybody knows really. Just wait and see what roles they get and we'll be good. Until then it's just a bunch of hear say.

Yes, he is.

They are hiring Matt Nagy for QB coach. Childress is going to be a senior offensive assistant/assistant HC (that's how he can make a move now while still under Browns contract) with a large amount of input.

**** he's just guessing like the rest of us....... well maybe with a TBG and Marty exception.

Thats what I think too. Its new and i like it. Will wait and see though. He will have help between Reid and Chilly. Not like we hired Lovie Smith as HC and Pederson as OC

What the hell has not been to like with the Reid hire so far? Such a change from the cluster**** of incompetence that was Pioli.

Why would Childress take a demotion? Thats makes no sense.

Assistant HC is the #2 man behind Reid himself.

Man I am confused. How many guys will be calling plays during the game?...AAAaaa guess I will just drink the kool-aid for now

Hard to believe this guy was playing in the NFL just 8 years ago

http://prod.static.eagles.clubs.nfl....erson_Doug.jpg

Cause he's gonna get fired when the Browns get a new coach

So we are going to let Matt Nagy cut his teeth on our rookie QB?

Would rather have a QB coach with QB coaching experience...

And it's not a demotion.

And before that he was Favre's back up.

What?

It's an unbelievable change. Seriously, going through that shitstorm last year to get these ****ing clowns out of KC was worth it.

Reid is being really aggressive with the DC search.

As Pat Kirwin said, Ray Horton would be a great hire. As I said last Thursday, there's a deep interest in Horton, and Reid did request permission to talk with him today. The Cardinals have yet to deny or allow.

That would be the slam dunk of all slam dunks.

But I do continue to hear Monte's name quite a bit.

This DC search is likely going to be quick moving.

This.

I am hearing this from my source as well.

Of course, my source is TBG :p

I'm all for this. He's going to have some very solid offense minds watching over things to learn from. It's much more important the DC can handle things on his own.

This ! Exactly what will happen as Reid teaches Pederson how to call plays for his type of WC offense. I don't mind at all.:thumb:

Could you imagine the reaction around here if Romeo hired Doug Pederson as OC?

It's not a demotion. It's a pay increase and he's overseeing the offense, but Pederson is going to be calling the plays, and collaborating on the game plans with Reid/Childress.

Shurmur is not coming along.

Wouldn't this be a lateral move for Horton ?

Reid is not calling the plays as of today. That could change in September, but he's not planning on being the signal caller.

Which was a good gig if you wanted to go through life anonymously.

If Horton isn't the HC there, he doesn't want to stay.

Asst. Head coach.

Not a demotion

Interesting. If Horton wants the job, I cannot believe that the Cards would deny him permission to talk to KC. If someone doesn't want to be a part of pretty much anything (company, team, etc.), you let that person walk.

Possible to have multiple assistant HCs.

3 Cardinals reporters have all said Horton is going no where.

That's the only thing I remember him for. :shrug:

this is a massive upgrade in offensive brain power, and QB coaching experience...

Sounds like a BS title you give someone to keep them around. I have no working knowledge of the pecking order on NFL coaching staff. Someone educate me. I thought the 3 best jobs were......

Head coach
OC
DC

Assoiate HC.

Reid and Childress.

If those guys didn't respect Nagy, he wouldn't be offered the job. Same goes for Pederson. Good hires.

I can't get over that we are bringing Matt Nagy in as our QB coach...?

That's so different though. Romeo and company had shown nothing but reasons to not trust their ability to make a good hire or their actual reasons for doing so. With a new guy, especially one with a good reputation, comes some trust. Romeo was a good DC a few years back, but he never gave us a reason to trust his decisions hiring coaches. Not to mention that the actual decision would becoming from Pioli, which guaranteed that the decision would be made for the wrong reasons.

Assistant to the Associate Head Coach.

It worked for Morningweg. He was a game day manager. Called the plays and did most of the orchestration so Reid could focus on decision-making.

And reporters always know exactly what is going on.

Good. Because he won't be the HC and we could use his skills here and I'm sure he sees a great thing being built here and would love to work with Reid in order to increase his credibility for a future HC position. Hopefully he recognizes this.

Does that mean its an attempt to fix our QBs?
