Jason Garret hands down

 

[SHAQAVELLI]

Strange hire, right?

 

[Absolut]

are they even allowed to talk to him yet?

 

[WaddupDoe!]

Jeff Lurie & Howie Roseman are trying to get another Reid. Nikka Chip was fired for a reason. Doug Pederson was supposedly who they wanted from the jump according to some Eagle insiders.

I'm pretty sure they can talk to him with permission, but they can't "officially" hire him until they're out of the playoffs.

Your coach is Gus Bradley, sit down


Also, what's wrong with Doug Pederson? He has ties to the organization and has helped energize a previously stagnant Chiefs offense.

Why fire the Walrus in the first place if they just want another one?

I can't believe the Chiefs hired Andy Reid's OC!!!

[resurrection]

He's Chiefs OC. Ran a very efficient offense with not a lot of "brand name" talent. He's an up-and-comer. The complete opposite of the recycled head coaching carousel we're all tired of. Good luck to him (even though I kinda can't stand the Eagles) I think he'll do a great job
