Why not Doug Pederson?

He's proven, went to a SB, only was on the outs because of that slime ball Howie Roseman, actually was right about some things in the organization (ie the FO wanted to fire Frank Reich the year they won the superbowl but he fought that off), and I believe the players actually liked him. That last year was not on him.

I actually like the idea of Pederson as an OC if we keep Rhule but fire Brady.

He's got a track record of success, runs a West Coast type system so no need for system based personnel turnover. Plus he's got a Panther connection through VP of Player Personnel Pat Stewart.

Hell, he was even on the 95 offseason roster (didn't make the team though).

You'd just have to convince Matt Rhule to hire him rather than promoting one of his own people.

Good luck with that part 😕

I think Rhule is reasonable enough to be able to look back at what didn’t and did work. Then make those changes. Unfortunately it means firing a few names

Go back to his history though. He turned down the Jets head coaching job because they wanted input on his staff.

Turns out they may have had valid reason.

We didn't hire him to be the college version of Ron Rivera if he has to be told any of this it's time to move on.

Can Tepper put the screws on him saying you no longer are allowed to promote your own buddies but are required to get proven NFL Offensive Coordinators....or else you can go back to college?

If I'm Pederson, why would I be a OC when I have a good shot at being a HC next year?

Sure, but given Rhule's history I'm not sure he'd agreed to it and that could lead to a parting of the ways.

(which I'd be fine with)

    • I believe I just read somewhere that the Rams don't do Top 30 Visits. I mean, it makes sense from the standpoint of trying to keep information close to the vest.
    • I'm not sure 19 is too high for Rodriguez anymore.  He looks to be moving up boards, but it could be smokescreens.  
    • I see XL this way---great athlete.  Good person.  When we drafted him, we knew he was raw.  One year of WR in college (starting) and in HS, he was a QB, I believe. We knew we would need patience with him.  I think year 3 will be make or break.  He is older, and I think that people with his athletic ability have always been better than those with less---but those with less can become more successful.  Why is that?  in my view, it is mental. XL can learn the mechanics and nuances of playing WR if he becomes focused on it and works at it.  I had the opportunity to talk to Armanti Edwards one day after OTAs (great guy) and he discussed how overwhelming it was.  He seemed shocked.  At that time, I knew that Fox hated the pick (I heard him mock Armanti to another coach when he saw Edwards drop a punt from a jugs machine--then I saw Armanti look back at Fox as if to suggest that he was feeling the pressure to please the coach. We forget that these are kids in their early 20s.  At the time, Fox was a lame duck.  Remember when he had Clausen as the #3 QB and was forced to move him up the ladder?  I liked Fox, but I think the climate and culture was influenced by the politics.  Currently, I see another Wr from SC who is struggling, but he is ina  very nurturing, positive culture. Let's see what happens with XL.  I am frustrated too---but XL was a second round talent who was raw and we traded up to get him.  He had 500 yards as a rookie--lets call 2025 a sophomore slump and see if we can't get at least 50 yards per game out of him.  If not, cut bait.
