Yeah, he lost the locker room when he benched Hurts. Players were physically confronting him. Regardless of record, that firing was going to happen.

If all goes well, in about a month he will be able to put "beat Super Bowl 55 champion during 2020 regular season" on his resume.

Re: Iggles fire Doug Pederson

SHOULD WE?

EVERYONE WANTS TO SEE CAM JORDAN "GET SOME SNAPS" OR SEE TAYSOM AT DE!! I HEARD BREES ALWAYS WANTED TO BE "THE MIKE"

I'M SURE THE QB'S WOULDN'T MIND ONE OF THE SAINTSATIONS AT CENTER!!

IT'D BE SO ENTERTAINING THE "RIGHT WAY"!!!!

THIS COULD REVOLUTIONIZE PRO FOOTBALL!!! HAVE A BIG DRUM WITH ALL FANS IN ATTENDANCE NAMES IN IT AND PULL THE STARTING LINE UP OUT OF IT BEFORE THE GAME. TALK ABOUT YOUR 12TH MAN!!!

He's a good coach... Too bad his owners/boss don't see it that way.

iirc, 3 playoffs in his four years as HC, including a SB victory..., so I agree with you. In all truthiness, I do think they view him as an excellent coach though. But, when you lose the player’s trust, aka the locker-room, and unfortunately he did, it all comes down to an owner looking at the big picture. I’ll ask a question of you.

Is it more difficult to find an franchise QB..., or a HC? Benching Hurts was not a smart idea, even if it was well intentioned, and if Hurts is the “chosen one” then I understand the owner’s logic. I don’t necessarily agree with that logic, but I can see the road he took to get there.

Lightbulb Re: Iggles fire Doug Pederson

Yeah, my view of it was backwards..., but it was still the same idea. One guy wanted Hurts, one guy didn’t. When Pedersen benched Hurts, and the player’s “revolted” I assumed it was Pedersen that wasn’t sold on Hurts. Simply put I was wrong in who believed what..., But I still feel ok with saying the benching, plus the player’s revolting plus somebody in management not being sold on Hurts was an issue. I just thought it was Pedersen. My bad.

Pedersen is a good coach though, and imvho, someone will be lucky to have him.

Sean sure is fortunate he's got Greg Bensel strong-arming local media...

If this were a bigger market Sean would've been long gone with his suspension...
