It's time for Reid to GO!!!!!!

[Wingspan]

my problem with reid is not that he hasnt won a superbowl in a general sense but that his teams have gotten close so many times and he cant close the deal due to his deficiencies

So it's better to go 9-7...8-8 annually, with the occasional 1st round playoff exit, than it is to go 10-6/11-5 most years, and deep into the playoffs on a regular basis?

No one handles preparation better than Andy.

That's why there's only three safeties on the roster, no full-time punt returner, no kickoff returner, a gimpy quarterback backed up by a guy with a broken paw & a rookie, no receivers worth a damn, two linebackers who are either green as hell or completely overmatched and playing out of position, a punter from Australia, mediocre defensive tackles you've spent two #1 picks on, a safety who looks like a blown up hockey player, a team that is inching towards the bottom of the league in penalties per game, on and on. . .

But at least they're 12 million under the cap so they'll be able to offer extensions to even more stiffs who clearly don't deserve them.

no but if you go deep into the playoffs and continously come up short cause youre an idiot then its time for a change...when the steelers were losing it wasnt due to cowher making agregious errors...

the fans that wanted him gone wanted him gone out of general frustration of losing the championship games...you never heard calls for cowhers head when they were winning in the regular season....and thats because they all knew deep down he was a great coach that just couldnt get over the top...andy continously does the same stupid things over and over and prevents himself from getting over the top

How is it possible that there are still people defending this clown?

I'll conceed that Cower's about the same as far as results as Reid. Reid's coaching days in Philly have about run their course. He could go somewhere else and do really well and most likely will. This situation is tired and I don't think he can revitalize it. It feels like we're at the end of a run. It was a good run. One of the best in Eagles history sure.

I throw out Cower because he's a descent coach who'll at least coach the style of football team that I like to watch. Smash mouth tough big hit defensive football. If the Eagles will continue not winning a superbowl every year it will at least be fun to watch a trail of bodies along the way.

That being said I'm really really liking the Rex Ryan idea more then Cower for some reason. Maybe because I'm a sentimental jerk or something.

In the end you're not winning the Super Bowl at the end of the season (which is the end goal after all) so either option amounts to the same thing: No trophy. All that matters is winning the last game of the football season.

That's crap.  I would rather watch 10 or 11 victories a year, plus hopefully a couple of playoff wins than watch a team go 8-8 or 7-9 with no playoffs.  At least with the former, I get to enjoy myself that many more Sundays a year, and be able to live the dream until it's crushed.  It's better to dream and fail than never dream at all.

Is the superbowl the only game you watch?

There is no one more that I would love to see coach the eagles than Cowher.  He has the ideal style for Philadelphia. 

Side note in my madden franchise I fired Andy Reid in favor of Rex Ryan.

Yes, and I didn't watch the Eagles lose last Sunday. Don't be stupid. The point is, they play the games to win the Super Bowl. Winning 8 games and missing the playoffs or winning 12 games and losing in the NFCCG nets the same end result, no Super Bowl trophy. Your stupid analogy amounts to the same thing no matter which path is taken: Not winning the Super Bowl, which is what the teams go into every season trying to do. None of which has anything to do with MY involvement of watching the Eagles. This isn't rocket science.

Thank you, Tony Robbins.

I live in Pittsburgh. The feelings of most Steelers fans toward Cowher before he won his Super Bowl is virtually identical to the feelings of most people on this board toward Reid. I'm not saying that Reid's a good coach or that he is going to win a Super Bowl; just pointing out a fact about Bill Cowher. Personally I would prefer Cowher also.
