Phire Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 Quote Doug Pederson was the last head coach hired in the 2016 cycle, the Philadelphia Eagles' third choice after Ben McAdoo decided to stay with the New York Giantsand Tom Coughlin decided he couldn't make it work there. Pederson watched as McAdoo and the Miami Dolphins' Adam Gase reached the playoffs in 2016 and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' Dirk Koetter got close. Pederson's Eagles started 3-0 but fizzled out and finished 7-9. And while rookie quarterback Carson Wentzshowed flashes, it's fair to say Pederson's was far from the splashiest debut season.

Danger Posted November 8, 2017 Author Share Posted November 8, 2017 Somehow I doubt the Eagles wanted McAdoo over Pederson. Gase? Yeah I could see that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McAdoo might look like trash now but I can certainly believe it. I can't remember exactly what happened but I remember us being keen to bring him in for an interview and the Giants got all flustered and promoted him immediately. He was a really good HC candidate. I really didn't like the Pederson hire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RBreezy Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Yeah pretty sure the Eagles wanted McAdoo then Coughlin. Doug was the third option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
808 Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 You guys saw Michael Lombardi's comments about Doug being the least qualified HC ever right? https://www.bleedinggreennation.com/2017/9/3/16249726/former-nfl-gm-doug-pederson-head-coach-philadelphia-eagles-mike-lombardi-carson-wentz-ringer-video meet the Eagles’ head coach, Doug Pederson! Now, everybody knows Pederson isn’t a head coach. He might be less qualified to coach a team than anyone I’ve ever seen in my 30-plus years in the NFL. Pederson was barely a coordinator before he became head coach. Can you imagined if we elected a United States president who didn’t have any real training? Sorry, don’t answer that. Look, the Eagles looked increasingly sloppy and unprepared as the 2016 season limped along. That ain’t changing in ’17. Only Carson Wentz can save Pederson’s job, and Wentz actually got worse during his rookie year, not better. When will the Eagles admit their mistake? Will they throw away 2017 by stubbornly sticking to the Pederson Principle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will they throw away 2017 by stubbornly sticking to the Pederson Principle? Yeah, I saw it a long time ago and couldn't shake my head hard enough. The fact he said "The immortal Roy Rubin lasted 51 games. I bet Doug Pederson lasts way less than that" is so stupid, cause 51 games is barely more than half 1 NBA season. 51 games in the NFL is a little more 3 seasons. Doug had already lasted longer than Rubin did when he made these comments. And, how does "barely being a coordinator" make him the least qualified to coach than anyone he's seen in 30 years? lol He still called plays during the 2nd half. It's not like he never called plays when in KC. Besides, Andy Reid wasn't even a coordinator before he became the Eagles head coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really hope people remember how bad he was as a coach and let him just be one of those really expensive DC. He just happens to be pretty young still so he may get another chance from a desperate team. I'll never forget that Harbaugh handshake he shared though. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eagles18 Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 even last year we took notice of Dougie's play calling - it was really good. But like the rest of the team it fizzled towards the end.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
