TradeTheBeal! Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Please welcome the new coach of our beloved Philadelphia Eagles, Doug Pederson! I'm sure he will be occupying space in all our heads in short order. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doug_Pederson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boss_Hogg Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 He has head coaching experience. According to his bio, he was the head coach for the Calvary Baptist Academy (High School) from 2005-2008. He served with Andy Reid from 2009-2012 in Philadelphia then followed Reid to KC in 2013. Pederson backed up Favre in Green Bay while Andy was the offensive line coach/QB coach. What I find ironic is that the Chiefs offense has been putrid since Pederson took over the coordinating job in 2013. This sounds like a Howie Roseman puppet move.

Old Bay Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Sounds like this is Philly's way of apologizing for mistreating Andy Reid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TradeTheBeal! Posted January 15, 2016 Author Share Posted January 15, 2016 Sounds like this is Philly's way of apologizing for mistreating Andy Reid. If Kelly was their Spurrier, then surely Pederson is their Zorn. It's just perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExoDus84 Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Here's hoping Pederson runs the ratbirds' offense. I know the Chiefs offense was horrible in 13 and 14, although they were #4 in PPG this season. Not sure why there was a huge jump this season.

SkinsFTW Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 This hiring is really a head scratcher and it's unbelievable that the media isn't questioning it. The dude was a high school coach during our Zorn years and then was an assistant under Reid since then and these weren't the Reid NFCCG years either. Gotta love it, just when we get a real nfl GM the rest of the division turns into the 1999-2009 version of Dan Snyders Redskins. Imagine the media reaction if the Redskins did what the Giants or Eagles did just now in firing coaches and keeping around their Cerratos to run the team. Desperate times there in NY/PHILLY.

Redskin4ever Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 The Pederson v McAdoo coaching battle sounds like it has all the makings of the old Zorn v Spagnuolo battle circa 2009. Just two terrific hires in the NFC East. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost of Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 If Kelly was their Spurrier, then surely Pederson is their Zorn. It's just perfect. And Roseman is their Cerrato. It's fantastic. We really need to make our moves the next 5 years. We have a five year good window to make it to/win a SB based on our division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gamebreaker Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 This is great news for Skins fans. Guarantees Philly to be a non-contender for at least 2 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExoDus84 Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Pederson/Philthy did just hire Jim Schwartz to be their D-coordinator. That's not a bad pickup. Schwartz did very well as the DC for the bills. I wanted him exponentially more than Barry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beachboy757 Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 I didn't want Jim Schwartz in the NFCE. I wonder how the other lapdog coaches will perform knowing that a former experienced head coach is on the staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His answer is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard, he basically said they didn't want to give the ball back to Brady so they took more time and were playing for the onside kick. Thats fine but if you run the clock out and don't get the onside at least you have time on the clock and 3 timeouts to have another shot at getting the ball back. In so many ways his answer makes no sense. This guy seems like a dummy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either he's lying, or he's dumb enough to think that the odds of recovering an onside kick are better than the odds of playing defense. Being a dumbass in your introductory press conference can't bode well. Which makes me happy, as an avid philthy hater. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bang Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 He was replaced. Pedersen started the year and was laughable. Literally the worst named starter i've ever seen. I have the audio of his answer about the Chiefs debacle, and will rip him and the eagles to shreds over it on this week's Bang Radio Hour. Should be a laugher. ~Bang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
