Eagles Fired Tom Gamble

[PhillyPhreak54]

Here's another thing

Chip has full personnel control

Hellooooo Mariota.

Well maybe not...but he's going to offer to trade everything to get up there

How mad is Howie right now? He makes Chip his #1 priority and latches his career onto his success only to have him fired.

Okay, I'm just going to ask the hard question here. Who is Tom Gamble?

[PhillyPhreak54]

When I said – after the Giants game – that Howie was returning as general manager next season, I meant that. But after carefully listening and reflecting on the lengthy discussions that I had with our senior team, I changed my mind.

Aka Chip threatened to bounce.

So Marcus Smith = Howie pick

No doubt in my mind.

If he was Chip's pick then he wouldn't have been blasting him in the media and he would've played him.

100% chip pick....chip raved about his multi dimensions and how long he was....he was a senior who had graduated...team leader type...plus no chance howie would have taken him that high...the whole draft had chips hands all over it

nothing that happened since gamble was fired had anything to do with marcus smith....its way bigger than a draft bust

Farg Howie and his inability to draft a corner that can play man coverage against the best receivers in the NFL, causing the Eagles to miss the playoffs since you're not allowed to come up with defensive schemes that hide your weaknesses.

I went to take a long piss, and I come back to this? Ok...so, are we collectively happy or mad for next season and the near future of this team? I need to get back to my life, so, let me know asap. Thanks.

Mad. Always mad.

I think Chip makes a play for Kaep

That depends on Chips gm selection. He brings in a yes man then farg no...he brings in an nfl guy and we'll see

I think Chip makes a play for Kaep

Why would the niners trade him?

Would probably depend on who ends up there as coach and if he thinks Kaep is the guy after a couple mediocre years.

im glad chip is the coach but im not happy with him also being head of PP....for one thing I don't like his philosophy....but im willing to give him another draft and FA or two....so im hopeful he will be better...more uncomfortable for me is having anyone do both jobs but especially someone as detailed in coaching as chip is...I mean the guy monitors his players sleep for god sakes....I think he has enough going on...on the coaching side of things

I also agree with straw in that this could easily be a one year band aid...because Howie is still in the building the stench of this is going to always be hanging over everyone...also is chip really happy?....I mean he got what he wanted but the same person still owns the team and the same person who fired his boy gamble is still working for the team...it just doesn't seem like a great working environment...I be kinda surprised if chip is the coach of the team this time next year

He won't be for sure if they don't win a goddamn playoff game.

Also, the Eagles can't afford his contract right now.
