Head Coach Search.

very true.

I don't want Coughlin. Need someone younger.

 

[Screamin Eagle]

Coughlin and Howie couldn't possibly survive together, could they?

 

[WIZ]

It's going to be Pederson. Very short interview with him and they can't announce anything until KC is done. They'll bring other guys in but only to pick their brain and in case Pederson gets cold feet. Lurie is in love with Reid and I can't see risking it with a whole new style. That didn't go well last time.

It makes perfect sense. The priorities of Howie:

1. Remain in power. This is the absolute top priority for him.
2. Run the franchize well.

And whenever these priorities conflict, the first priority will take presedence. Hence my statement.

And yes, even last season's events fit there - since Howie knew Chip would hang himself (which Howie could speed up if needed).

Hell, as Geoff Mosher stated today: everybody he has talked to about Howie - whether they are friends of him in private or on the job, like him, do not like him etc. etc. - stated that Howie is absolutely paranoid about grabbing and remaining in power in the Eagles' front office - and will do everything to remove anything and anyone he perceives as a threat to his position.

Aight; when it hurts us, i'll complain.

not really. You need someone to stabilize the club and command respect. None of these young buls are gonna do that.

Short? they said it was 4 hours.

 

[Wings]

If it is Pederson we may have to wait until after the Super Bowl....

why? Because the man is 69 he isn't competent? Coughlin has by far the best resume.

Love it!

Please not Pederson! He screams MEDIOCRITY!!!

Me thinks that Lurie is going to f.. things up here. I am far from being optimistic at this point. Canning Kelly a week early cost us a better draft pick and I just don't see the advantage of the early coaching search here? Feel free to help me out here? What advantage have we had?

If Eagles do hire Coughlin the week early firing amounted to zip

Ended at 1. Gase was here 9 hours.

He stands on the sidelines and mutters "Shit" the whole game. Tired of watching it!

 

[old duke]

Well, can't blame him. that's what he saw.

It's a damn shame. Howie irritates the piss out of me.

 

[Northern Eagle]

I wonder if (when) they hire Pederson, if Coughlin would agree to come on as an assistant Head Coach/consultant? He gets the best of both worlds; doesn't have to go through the rigors of being the full-time guy, still gets to be involved to some extent and would be the the perfect groom to bring along Pederson's inexperience. Plus they could still keep all the assistants that they want to keep around, which I'm on board with.

Me too.

I hope you are wrong.......please be wrong.
