Through the Eagles’ official Twitter account, Pederson announced that the team would be parting ways with offensive coordinator Mike Groh and wide receivers coach Carson Walch. This announcement comes barely a day after Pederson praised broth Groh and Walch and said that they’d be back for the 2020 season. 1

You don't hear much bad about owner Jeff Lurie in terms of hands on in the organization but wonder if he does throw his weight around a little behind the scenes.

Livinginthepast Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 (edited) 23 minutes ago, prissythecat said: Should they have kept Foles? ? There was no way that they could keep Foles, they would have had to pay him and terminate the Wentz project. Wentz was too high a draft pick to blow off for Foles but Wentz is who he is, a qb who gets injured quite a bit and can look brilliant but terrible as well. Wentz looked great against us but in other games has looked overwhelmed or confused by what he was seeing out there. Foles got injured so its hard to tell what he will do with the Jags but I don't think either of these qbs can repeat what they did when they had Reich as the OC.

eball Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 (edited) This move makes sense. You really only want one Carson in an organization. Mmmm....water bottle....mmmmmm Edited January 9, 2020 by eball 1
LittleSammy Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 I'd love to see one of these head coaches step down and essentially "fire themselves" for doing a lousy job vs. throwing their people under a bus. Will never happen.

LabattBlue Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 Pederson is the playcaller, correct? If so, firing other offensive staff sounds like a way to deflect the blame and keep his own job.
Rc2catch Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 Funny trend this year, these offensive genius coaches in Pederson and Nagy firing their offensive coaches. Scapegoat time after the scheme is figured out and not as successful? 1
