26CornerBlitz Posted January 19, 2016 Author Share Posted January 19, 2016 Anyone wonder if the fact that the Eagles are playing the NFC North this year had any bearing on his decision? He knows those teams all too well and can look good, like he did in Buffalo, against them. I think it's more that his scheme is fit for much of the defensive personnel already on the roster. @beaner_426 @ChrisBurke_SI Where does Barwin fit? @ChrisBurke_SI Chris Burke Retweeted Pork Tornado Probably as a pass-rushing DE. He should be able to handle that role in Schwartz's scheme. Back to the wide-nine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

26CornerBlitz Posted January 19, 2016 Author Share Posted January 19, 2016 Probably. Playing the NFCN doesn't hurt either. The division has changed quite a bit with exception of the Packers with every other team having new coaching staffs and personnel. 2 PM: Doug Pederson Press Conference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26CornerBlitz Posted January 19, 2016 Author Share Posted January 19, 2016 @RapSheet #Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie said some potential candidates were head coaches on other teams. Imagine Coughlin, Pagano, Payton(?) among them @JClarkCSN Jim Schwartz here for Doug Pederson's press conference. #Eagles @JoeBuscaglia Eagles HC Doug Pederson officially announced that Jim Schwartz is the new defensive coordinator @DZangaroCSN Pederson says he hasn't decided on an OC yet. Interviewing a few people. #Eagles Philly press already killing Pederson for clock management during the Chiefs final drive vs. NE in the divisional playoff round. @RapSheet Philly media is the best. Introductory press conference, #Eagles coach Doug Pederson gets asked "why did that drive take so long?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

26CornerBlitz Posted January 19, 2016 Author Share Posted January 19, 2016 What did he say? Hopefully he blamed Reid He admitted that he called the 2nd half plays, but offered a series of lame excuses for why it took so long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C.Biscuit97 Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Good for Schwartz but he has way less talent to work with. @LesBowen Pederson says Bradford would fit perfectly into what he wants to do. No OC decision yet. DC Jim Schwartz is here: http://ow.ly/i/g1QTQ @MarcSesslerNFL Doug Pederson calls Sam Bradford a 'tremendous' player. #Eagles I must have watched a different Bradford. He was far from tremendous. That said, he (or Andy Reid) did a good job with Alex Smith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, he (or Andy Reid) did a good job with Alex Smith. Compared to what we had, yes but thats still a VERY talented defense. Connor Barwin, Fletcher Cox, Demeco Ryan, Kiko Alonso, are some key pieces there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26CornerBlitz Posted January 19, 2016 Author Share Posted January 19, 2016 @JamieApody Just interviewed Jim Schwartz. Says he's consumed by wanting to win a Super Bowl. Would love nothing more than to bring 1 to fans of Philly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
