Spelled his name wrong.

Fixed dumb phone lol

Bad decision.

Bring him in for a look.

his last game decision with the back-up was probably the last nail in the coffin

EB replacement?

Reportedly it’s the coaches he wanted as his assistants going into next season.

Take him as a coord for sure.

interesting. Thanks!

LMAO Can't even imagine the whining that'd ensue from the media.

**** that. You leave our Kafka alone.

This. We're gonna lose EB for sure and possibly Kafka. Pederson is a fine replacement.

If Bieniemy and Kafka both get HC jobs, would you bring back Pederson as OC?

I think Kafka will be OC next year, but the Mahomes effect is real.

hmmm... on the same day the Eagles hired John Dorsey...

Apparently this was not an original thought

Regardless, that's a hard sell to that Eagles fanbase to go back to the Reid tree again.

Kafka beging mentioned as someone to watch in Philly. Damn....

Wonder if they go for someone like Saleh.

Wait, what? I'm watching fox sports now they haven't mentioned that.

3 years removed from SB win, first Philly SB evar. 42-37 HC record and most of those losses in weird covid season, and then gets canned because of one maybe bad decision in a meaningless game. Joke Eagles.

Id take him as the OC again if EB left why not?

Some think Pederson might be an option for the Jets.

If Kafka gets a job before EB then there has to be skeletons in his closet preventing him from being hired and I don't believe it's skin color related.

The eagles job is not one I'd want to jump into as a new coach.

Lurie is getting more meddlesome as time goes on, and that's not good for Philly.

I agree. Look you can win the SB and be out two years later. Very involved ownership there.

Ouch, if he was being micromanaged he will be better off.

Saw one guy say it should be a crime to hire him over EB LMAO

Twitter is such a cesspool.

Wentz really does run that organization.

Right or wrong, his decision to bench Hurts in week 17 was his prerogative. The fact that several players supposedly had to be held back from him just shows what an absolute shit show it is there that players can get away with that.

have we signed this piece of shit yet

Pederson to the Chargers?

Bieniemy needs to take a damn HC gig. We're gonna lose Kafka, and he's our next OC.

We already know about them.

But that won't stop simple minded sports media personalities from pulling the race card.

Did not see that coming.

This. This “waiting for the perfect job” is bullshit.

Sounds like Jets

Can't accept something that hasn't been offered.

I think people need to realize that for any number of reasons, nobody wants EB.

Pederson had his very own Todd Haley/Tyler Palko moment when he put Sudfeld in LMAO

They hired Dorsey in December.

Oh well. He brought it on himself.

Huh. Didn’t know that. Thanks.

He'll be hired this off-season. My bet is Houston to keep Watson happy or maybe ATL/DET.

This situation might be an even bigger mess than Houston.

Lol Houston already hired a Patriot Way GM, they aren’t going to switch things up now for Watson. They also still haven’t even interviewed EB. There’s no chance they go with him.

Exactly what I was going to say.

I mean, they won a SB less than 4 years ago.

I remember the Ray Rhodes era, the ****ing Rich Kotite era...the Eagles were talented trash between Buddy Ryan and Andy Reid.

It was amazing Pedersen got ANYTHING out of that dung heap this season. Wentz is garbage and so is Jalen Hurts. The Luries did him a favor by firing him. **** Philadelphia. Ungrateful bastards. Boo Santa Claus. Boo Michael Irvin when he broke his neck. Run Andy out of town (thanks, btw) and now run Pedersen back to KC...it's cool. We LOVE Super Bowls here...

Does this mean Carson Wentz wants to stay?

If you were LA Chargers would you snap Doug up?

I think they’re waiting on Daboll.

Kafka will get hired before EB.

I think EB will be a disaster. Watson better be careful what he asks for.

I would rather have a team take Bieniemy than Kafka.

I believe it.

Did someone slip you smart pills this morning?

Well little buddy, I'd hate to break it to you, but that's what happens when you have a job.


They tell you what to do, you do it, they give you money.


That's how jobs work.

If Wentz is trash, it’s bad. But they still have picks right?

I actually agree with him.

I think EB is largely a figurehead. Andy Reid is the real brains.

EDIT: Kafka was a QB at Northwestern. EB was a running back at CU. I'd take Kafka over EB 10 times out of 10.

Happens every day.

Howie Roseman should’ve been fired, not Pederson.

I agreed with him too - that's why I asked if someone had given him smart pills this morning. I feel it's very accurate, and I think other people in the league do, too. That combined with EB's lack of interview savvy are what's keeping him from getting a HC job. Everyone knows that EB and Kafka are 1a and 1b to Reid's King Salami and both have approx the same amount of input.

Good hire by Philly. Dorsey might not be great at getting along with everyone as a GM, but he has a good eye for talent.

Mark Brunell
Matt Hasselbeck (eh?)
Favre
Rodgers
Mahomes
Mayfield

I can't think of another GM that has that much QB talent to his resume.

Sorry, my sarcasm meter must be stuck on 10. ROFL

...and by doing that they've caused their franchise QB to reportablely want a trade. Now he's not gonna get it but still if there's anyone who you want happy in that locker room its the 155 million dollar quarterback.

I understand that, but that ship has sailed.

I think we lose both :shake:

If Pederson is still available after the smoke clears I would hope we'd snap him up.

He deserved it.

Dude won a Super Bowl 3 years ago. He'll get another gig somewhere.

Probably the Jets.

Honestly, i don't give a crap if we lose EB. I would much rather have the 3rd round draft pick.

He's supposedly in charge of the running game but our running game has been crappy. It's been predictable and sloppy. I don't even know if EB is calling the plays since Andy is always talking in the headset at the same time.

Kafka is another story altogether. I wonder if he is on the correct timeline to take Andy's place in the future. I hope the Chiefs protect him.

From what I remember about Pederson's departure, I'm not sure he'd be welcomed back at One Arrowhead Drive.

;)

Yeah, didn't he knock some chick up that wasn't his wife or something?

He Marty/Tannered a bitch

This has to be due to the Wentz deal and some players going against Doug for the way he's handled things. I bet he lost the locker room.

I'd be surprised if he doesn't. Iggles are making a emotional decision here. Everyone is pissed about that last game. Philly was destroyed by injuries this year. They were last year as well and still made the playoffs. If there's anyone that needs firing its whoever the S+C head is. Pederson isn't the best but he deserved one more year.

Doug Pederson wouldn't have made the decision to play Nate Sudfeld all by himself. That would have been an organizational decision.

Pederson tired of being told what to do = Pederson tired of taking shit for the GM's order to pull Hurts so they tank the last game and pick up 3 draft spots and screw the Giants.

Neither did the local KC sports radio jocks this morning.

Right or wrong It must be because they attribute the majority of his success to Mahomes and Reid. I’d be really skeptical about the Reid tree right now if I were hiring a head coach.
