Also this could be our new offensive coordinator. Expand This is Wentz contract (click to embiggen) Parting from Wentz next season would cost the Eagles $60M in cap. His $15M salary becomes fully guaranteed March 15th. Who is going to trade for a benched QB who is due $15M in salary, $22-20M in subsequent years? Fundamentally, the Eagles "best way out" is to try to hire a QB whisperer who can salvage something out of Wentz. It's clear there was no going back for Pederson and Wentz. I do not want Pederson as our new OC. Brett Kollman does an interesting job of breaking down how yes, a lot of it is Carson Wentz, but play calling and design has something to do with how badly it all went in Philly, not to mention lack of coaching/accountability for Wentz.

turftoe Posted January 11, 2021 Posted January 11, 2021 Losing Frank Reich was a big blow to the Eagles. In my opinion, there would be no Lombardy in Philly if Reich didn't spend so much time getting Nick Foles ready for the SB. Reich the key 1

Keeps his head stuck in his play sheet all game, and has no idea what's really going on in the game. Should have been fined and suspended by the league after the nonsense he pulled at the end of the Eagles-Redskins game. I can not imagine any team will want any part of him. Good for the Eagles getting rid of him. 1

Expand Not surprising with the way the end of the season went down and the QB garbage in the last game. I thought this was where the Jets wanted to go if they got rid of Gase. I even thought that they may hold onto Gase one more season to line it up with Pederson, but this is 1A in my mind for the Jets. Look for Bienemy (Reid disciple) to get the Philly Job. They loved and miss Andy there.

The Iggles are going to be a tire fire for at least a couple seasons. He had two seasons left on his contract and he’ll probably get paid to sit on a beach for those two seasons rather than go through the horror of coaching a team that’s trying to avoid 0-16.
