2016 Head Coach Search

[BigEd76]

McDermott said last night he talked to Howie about the HC job the day after the regular season ended and it was clear early on the Birds wanted an offensive-minded coach

Saw that too.  Still think it was foolish to not have a formal interview with him when Carolina had a bye week, but whatevs. At least with then having a coach, they're able to get started on their offseason rather than having to wait until after the SB. Basically gave them a month head start.

Coughlin acted like a 20-year old whose girlfriend had dumped him and he was trying to make her jealous by dating her No. 1 enemy on the rebound. NFL sources say his hard feelings for the Giants came through loud and clear in the interview with the Eagles brain trust, which included owner Jeffrey Lurie, and he was obsessed with how he felt wronged by the Giants. He was not forthcoming about his plans for his staff. He came off more concerned with making the Giants look bad than being consumed with coaching the Eagles.

I read this a few days ago, but people keep sending it to me. I'm not doubting he was banging his secretary, but the whole Reid pawning him off to the Eagles seems absurd. Why not just fire the guy? I'll just throw this in here for discussions sake

Whatever the truth is, I am utterly delighted that Andy Reid is no longer directly associated with the Philadelphia Eagles.

Who gives a rat's ass if he was banging some broad?   If cheating on your wife disqualifies you for a job, most of the married men in this country would be unemployed.   As for Reid playing the Eagles for chumps, that surprises me not one bit.    He played them for fools for a decade and now he's doing the same thing in KC.   Dude is a flat-out fraud.

Time's yours.

[Diomedes]

My disdain for Reid only grows as time passes.

I cannot believe, for example, that anyone thought it was a good idea for him to hire his farg up sons as quality control coaches, or whatever the farging title was.  You see that kind of thing going on in an organization, it's time to update your resume and gtfo.  That shtein is the opposite of professional.

Well he did make Doug his offensive coordinator, so yes?

The conspiracy premise is Reid and Pederson's wifes are good friends. Pederson was banging some secretary. Everyone knew about it except the Eagles. The whole thing was supposedly a big distraction in KC. Instead of firing Pederson, Reid sold the Eagles/Howie on him to save face. Howie didn't vet Pederson because he trusted Reid. Later Howie learns about the affair, confronts Reid, and they have words.

If you believe the conspiracy then that's 100% on Howie and Mr. Emotional Intelligence
