EaglesPeteC Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 I said this at the beginning of the search and I’ll say it again, fans and analysts have very little idea what coaching hires will be good. Think back who the “hot names” were over the years and how many of them were any good? Most of the hated and out of nowhere hires tend to turn out good. whoever it is, I’ll embrace the change and give them a fair shot to be good 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gase and McAdoo were the eagles' top choices in 2016. But yeah, I'm ready to roll with the new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EaglesPeteC Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 To relay my point here is a comical article of “rating the 2016 coaching hires” https://www.google.com/amp/s/ftw.usatoday.com/2016/01/ranking-the-nfls-new-coaching-hires-chip-kelly-doug-pederson-ben-mcadoo-philadelphia-eagles/amp Being a “hot name” is not equal to being a good hire.

Wonder how much the Pats WRs were his choice. Because his time in Denver, where he had a ton of control, was pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
