The truth is you like what he’s saying and agree with it so you’re making it out to be more valid.
As if mark schlereth future HOF lineman hasn’t been watching and analyzing football since before orlovsky was even in college
Don’t be dense about it
I trust the Dan knows more about the qb position, maybe not.Quote:

I’m ok with other opinions, honestly, none of what we think matters as we don’t have near the access they do.
Wentz has fault, no denying that.
Wentz isn’t entirely at fault. To me it’s a pretty even thing between Doug, wentz and injuriesQuote:

Carson has played far worse than he ever should no matter the circumstances. There’s levels I’d be willing to accept under these circumstances but he’s kinda falling way below that
Injuries are self explanatory
Eagles need new eyes on the entire roster. They need to take howie out of the equation, Doug out of the equation, and they need someone in here with 0 emotional attachment and fresh eyes
They need to pair Wentz with Dan.Quote:

I posted this in the nfl forum.. Interesting stuff if true. Doug may be forced to either give up play calling or be fired if things don’t improve
I do like orlovaky.

Usually when a coach “gives up” play calling it never works out in the end. They end up getting canned the following season
Also I like Doug, but these coaching changes were forced on him. He clearly doesn’t want anyone on his staff that can call plays. And I don’t see his ego relinquishing that
I honestly see the idea being proposed and Doug saying no in order to be fired and hired elsewhere
Where?
New York jets with joe Douglas and Trevor Lawrence
Tbh that’s my likeliest scenario
Andy made this change after he was fired not before. Sometimes these ego filled offensive minds need humbling
Doug was very innovative in 2017. But he doesn’t want to evolve and change. Remember those last couple years with Andy? Vick helped revive him for a year but Andy was driving us into the dirt with his refusal to grow offensively. Refusing to run, refusing to evolve.
Doug is like a repeat. Doug needs to get fired. I wouldn’t be surprised to see him humbled, go to New York and suddenly turn them into the king of the AFC East
And I wouldn’t be surprised for Doug leaving, and a full house clean that Carson turns it around
But having said that. Fresh eyes are desperately needed. New player personnel executive. New head coach with an offensive coordinator and a new defensive coordinator
Trade away everyone possible and stockpile draft picks.
I think the eagles are a very attractive job. Approach Lincoln Riley and Ryan day. Young fresh offensive minded coaches
And bring in chuck pagano as the defensive coordinator when Matt Nagy is fired from chicago
I think it’s a huge combination of a lot of things. Carson does share some blame for sure, I mean some of the decisions he’s making this year are so bad... But I think Doug just isn’t as good of a coach as we all thought he was.. Yes, he looked amazing in 2017, but he was also surrounded by A LOT of brilliant coaching minds that year and now he isn’t so I think he’s being exposed..Quote:

The OL has been ok given the circumstances (besides old man Jason peters) but I think that’s more on the coaching of Jeff stoutland (who I think is the eagles best coach by far), I wouldn’t give pederson that credit.
I thought the offense sucked last year. It drove me crazy. And I thought Carson looked “decent” until the final 4 gamesQuote:

2017 to 2020 has seen a yearly recession in my eyes. And it’s not the talent. I think the eagles had their most talented offense since 2017
It’s injuries but it’s also coaching. Last year I felt like we had dud after dud. Always in games purely on talent but nothing explosive or exciting
This year it’s even worse. The best way to describe it is in 2017 every play looked like the right play at the right time
2020 it looks like the wrong play at the wrong time
I’ve said this to bdawk but it looks like defenses know our screens every time we run them. It’s like they know it better than the offense. They sniff them out relentlessly
That means Doug ain’t changing. He’s keeping the same schemes and plays. And teams know them already. So we aren’t fooling anyone
Long post lol but look at mcvay. That offense changes every year. Depending on who he has and who he’s playing, and what’s been working
I think Doug is as good as we thought he wasQuote:

But his ego needs to get him fired
It’s brutal
