Go get him. The Phili SB run was one of the most impressive bits of coaching I've seen in a while. Plus, how ironic would it be if the Lions hired the offensive mind that exposed their last coach.

I guess the news is kinda double ... Pederson is on the market, but one more team looking for a HC
The Eagles should just get SCHWARTZ to come back as HC ... mostly kidding sounds like he needs the health breakWHO CARES why it says paper jam when there is no paper jam?

Winning a Super Bowl is a great accomplishment nothing can take it away, but I don't think it correlates to further success in the NFL. There are a lot of fairly anonymous head coaches that have won Super Bowls and a lot of really successful winning Super Bowl coaches who move on to the next job and don't have the same success. To me Pederson is in the in the former group. Nothing about the guy screams to me that he is a great coach that is going to replicate that success in the next stop.
I kind of feel like him like how I hought of Jim Caldwell. He was one bad Manning int from winning a championship as a head coach. The Lions played up his status as an Super Bowl coach and it was weird to me. In retrospect he looks a lot better than his replacement but the same criticism I had if him remains, be was not that dynamic and I felt there was not much urgency.
I wouldn't hate a Pederson hiring but I just think he isn't the type to change around culture. He is more of a hire you already have something good in place.

Report: Eagles have contacted Lincoln Riley

On Monday, the Eagles fired coach Doug Pederson. Also on Monday, the Eagles contacted his potential replacement.
Geoff Mosher of InsideTheBirds.com reports that the Eagles already have reached out to Oklahoma coach Lincoln Riley to gauge his interest in the job.
Riley became the coach of the Sooners in 2017, and his quarterback pupils have included Baker Mayfield, Kyler Murray, and Jalen Hurts.
Jalen Hurts, as in Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts. And not Carson Wentz, as in Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz.
Riley has been linked from time to time with NFL jobs, but there’s never been a serious courtship of him by a professional team. If the Eagles plan to put on the table the kind of money that the Panthers have given former Baylor coach Matt Rhule (roughly $9 million per year), maybe Riley — whose current package averages more than $7.5 million per year — will listen.
Other factors surely come into play. Riley seems to have it made at Oklahoma. It may take making a lot more than $9 million per year to get him to make the jump to the next level, especially when the specific opening at the next level resides in a city where neither the media nor the fans will be as compliant or friendly as what he’s currently experiencing in Oklahoma.
Unless he wins in the NFL likes he’s been winning in college, where his record is 45-8.

Interesting if Trent Baalke is hired as Jacksonville GM. Baalke was GM for the 49ers during the Jim Harbaugh era.
F#*K OHIO!!!
