Ittakestime Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Not who you think they are going to hire, but who would you want? Guys like Jim Bob Cotter, John DiFillipo, and Frank Reich are not realistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CEN-CAL17 Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 (edited) As I’ve said before want and realistic are different. There are 4 realistic Candidates 1. Mike McCoy - McDs 1st choice last year. System doesn’t change much. 2. Mike Shula - Worked together in Carolina 3. Ken Dorsey - Carolina ties, could bring young perspective and new style philosophies. 4. Rob Chudinski - Worked in Philadelphia together That’s it. I like the Idea of Dorsey... but I think it will be McCoy, Beane May like Shula who knows. Edited January 12, 2018 by 1ZAYDAY1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blacklabel Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Alex Van Pelt intrigues me. Was OC in GB for a little bit but has been Rodgers' QB coach for the last few years now. Would be a great guy to help develop a young QB. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dkollidas Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Could see Dorsey coming as QB coach. He’s dealt with Newton so he could probably deal with any type of personality... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JD is the QB coach in Philly and Reich is the OC. Perhaps he thought JD was OC. Reich is technically realistic but it would be a lateral move for him and he's probably waiting for a HC opportunity. Maybe he'd come here since he's familiar and it's near his hometown but I dunno, they got a good thing going in Philly...as long as Wentz is healthy.

jaycorp51 Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 John DeFilippo is my top choice followed by Darrell Bevell. I'd really have to research more into Brian Daboll and Matt Canada to form a judgement on them, but I love what DeFilippo has done with Wentz.

Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 So what actually went wrong with Rico?? Did he say all the right things on the interview last year, but then reverted to something else?? There's a pretty long list of coordinators from both sides who end up one and done. How do you prevent that from happening again?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ittakestime Posted January 12, 2018 Author Share Posted January 12, 2018 This is why Defilppo is unrealistic. He is already a position coach, therefore Philly will reject OC interviews. http://www.nbcsports.com/philadelphia/philadelphia-eagles/report-eagles-block-jets-interviewing-qb-coach-john-defilippo 2 minutes ago, Ed_Formerly_of_Roch said: So what actually went wrong with Rico??

Also, Wentz being more established might give them more comfort in letting him move on. Lastly, the organizations connections to McDermott might make them more comfortable that he’s going to a good organization with a solid foundation. just speculation on my part... hopeful speculation.

JohnBonhamRocks Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 I think the Eagles should want to be careful getting a reputation of blocking promotions for their coaches. Also, if we get Chud, then he might bring Dorsey, who he coached at U of Miami, in as his QB coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

napmaster Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Bring back Greg Roman. Unfortunately, I doubt he'd come back. Resume: Made Buffalo the #1 rushing offense. He called Rex a buffoon. Made Sammy cry to the Pegulas. I would love to see him have a another shot, this time with the new McD/Beane culture and not the Ryan Brother's Circus. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thenorthremembers Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Its time they found someone who is going to think outside of the box. Outside of maybe Matt Canada, hiring any of these guys would be no different than keeping Dennison. If the reports are correct, Chudzinski's offense is historcially worse than Dennison's and McCoy's is on par and only marginally better in the passing game.

ProcessTheTrust Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 I think Chudzinski is their top choice. McD was there to witness him work with Cam as a rookie and help him transition into the NFL much quicker than most expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not great at coordinating a passing attack. And I've heard there are issues with his interpersonal and leadership skills. Lynn did better with Roman's plays than Roman because he was (1) a better playcaller and (2) a better leader. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerome007 Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Am I the only puzzled with how unimaginative and all some OC are, either as planners or at play calling? I mean, they did reach that level in the NFL! 5 minutes ago, hondo in seattle said: Roman strength is that he's a guru at run designs. He's not great at coordinating a passing attack.

Mountain Man Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 I don't want DeFilippo as it seems a 1 year hire who would leave to be a HC, I would prefer someone who we could get at least a few year continuity out of Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fadingpain Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Young, innovative, forward thinking, outside the box, intelligent enough to understand basic statistics theory and rely on it as a part of his play design and calling.

I'd also hire Dorsey as QB coach. From the get go I let Chud know that while the offense is in his hands 2 of his top priorities should be 1. Grooming the new QB and 2. Grooming Dorsey to take over for him. My vision is this. If Chud comes in and turns around the offense, helps groom this new QB and we have success he will likely be a hot HC candidate withing the next 2-3 seasons. He's already well regarded around the league and many feel if given time he could have done well in Cleveland. We need someone to take over and not start over again. Actual continuity. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunnerBill Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Sean Ryan, John Morton and Brian Daboll are the 3 people I would interview. Bevell, Shula or Dorsey I would live with. Chud would be a no and McCoy is a HELL NO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hondo in seattle Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 I won't say I "want" Daboll but I'm intrigued. He was the OC for three NFL teams over the course of four years. He has experience. Then again, his offense never finished above #20 in yards. The intriguing part is that he was an offensive assistant with the Patriots after being an OC. I wonder how much he learned and how much that experience shaped his current coaching philosophy. He didn't work for a slouch last year at Bama, either, by the way. He's had good mentors.
