God I'd kill for shanahan at this point

We're probably not far off from interviewing Kyle smh

Shanny said he's off limits. They wouldn't wanna be in the same divison anyway

I heard y'all were considering the Seahawks D coordinator. Gus something. Can't be a more desperate hire than when we got Zorn :sadcam:

Chip Kelly? Turned them down.

Bill O’Brien? Turned them down.

Brian Kelly? Turned them down.

Their biggest targets all rejected them....Lurie's Plan A, B AND C. Even Gruden, when questioned about his interest, said he had “zero interest” in coaching the Eagles, according to Sal Pal.

So they started panicking, and these candidates you see now are the result of that. Why else would they interview Lovie Smith and consider him a VIABLE finalist candidate? :rudy:

Now reports are that they spoke to Brian Billick last week:



See, here’s what’s REALLY happening:

Bill O’Brien, who is still very close to Bill Belichick from his days as an assistant in New England, was TOLD in no uncertain terms by Belichick not to go work for Howie Roseman, as Howie has a reputation around the league for being a fukk nikka (fukk cracka?) who will attempt to usurp your authority at every turn in order to make himself look good, especially since Lurie inexplicably thinks Roseman is some type of genius.

So ONCE AGAIN, as I said in my “Ten Point Plan to Fix The Eagles” thread….Lurie should have fired Howie when he fired Reid. Now we gon’ be stuck with some retread ass clown…. :smh:


They are college coaches who went back to their schools...and its not like they left to take some other NFL job


Eagles are gonna hire Gus Bradley....bank on it

Nope, if the job was RIGHT, at least one of them would have taken it.

Like I said in my first post….O’Brien was DIRECTLY advised not to take the job, and as that link to the CBS Philly story confirms, there’s a LEAGUE-WIDE negative perception about Howie Roseman which is preventing other coaches from wanting to take the job.

Has nothing to do with them wanting to return to college in this instance...if that was the case they never would have interviewed in the first place. As the CBS article reports, Chip Kelly’s main point of contention was not having enough say in the personnel decisions.

And that’s a GREAT and extremely fair point….like, who the fukk wants to coach somewhere where (1) the GM might be trying to upstage you, and (2) you got no say-so in the players you want for YOUR system (last time I checked, a GM doesn’t call plays).

As long as Lurie continues to keep Roseman in there, we’re gonna pay for it.

Watch us end up with some tired retread for this VERY reason.

(*awaits announcement of Norv Turner signing as HC* :rudy: )

Any manager would be stupid to turn down the eagles job. They're 2 OL away from being superbowl contenders :mjpls:
