Mike Smith was a DC before he took the ATL job!

NFL 2015 Divisional |OT| - A Fraud Divided

I do think a fresh start was probably in order, but if you're going to go in on spending endlessly to bring in FAs, Chip did about 1000x worse with personnel. He nuked a solid base in just a few short years. He brought in the wrong guys and hopefully the next man up can actually figure out how to use them appropriately.
For the 49ers sake you have to hope he learned a couple lessons about the NFL and how to best make use of the talent.
I heard on the radio that he's going to be a LB coach, not the DC. Where'd you hear he'd be DC?
Mike Smith is where he's going. Search your feelings, know you it to be true.
Not sure to be honest I thought Squicken posted it.
I said nothing of should! (I'd keep Caldwell only to keep Cooter. I would do anything for Cooter)
Miserable if they lose, foolish if they win! It's great!

You might not considering you were okay with Shurmur coming In and coaching. I think if you are okay with that, then you have no idea what a good head coach is.

Tony Corrente's crew (AKA the cats behind the missed illegal batting in the Seattle-Detroit game) will be reffing Panthers-Hawks.
That's kind of my hope. I think Chip's a smart guy who had bad habits in Philly. I'm excited for seeing what he can do in his second stop. Also, if he fails, he's done in the NFL, so he has plenty of incentive to get results.
I was just going by in the moment guess-Tweets from media guys. Looks like Schwartz has multiple offers. I think the TEN job is the best one. No media, QB, owners that don't care and are selling the team. He'd have the time to get the defense good. In Philly they'd be on him Week 2

Dirk Koetter gets the Bucs job, and Jameis Winston gets continuity. Job 1: Finding a defensive coordinator.

Well, if anything, he's a tough enough guy to deal with the Philly crowds and media.
Can't wait to see him with Kaep. I wanted no part of Kaep here, but I don't mind watching it play out in SF.
Reid had personnel say for years and his terribad drafts finally led to the dream team off season.
Chip had 1 year. Just 1 year to work the personnel.
And as many have said he didn't get fired cause of that. That was the reason they could use to justify, but it was cause Lurie loves Howie and Chip couldn't get along with him. Oh and Chip forced Lurie to reschedule the holiday party.
Lurie is so scared of ever having any discomfort that he is basically putting together the Reid staff without Reid.
Never mind that they don't have McNabb or a QB they could draft this year as a top guy. But I'm sure this will produce the same results!
At least with Chip it was a bold inspiring move. This is basically being scared shitless and trying to recapture something that ultimately didn't work and flamed out.
This is rumored?

Shurmur is a much better choice then Pederson. The Cheat also got fired from the Browns, guess NE was dumb to hire him.
The Panthers will never lose another Super Bowl.

Except he wasn't.. Fired from the Browns. They were already moved to Baltimore and then Modell fired him.
But it's okay.. You keep sitting there bitching about Reid while you are sitting in the cellar of the NFC East.

Would call Doug in the spring every year (no agent) ask him to come back another year to back up Brett. He'd say "Cool" and we'd do a deal.

You do realize Eagles just came from 2 back to back winning seasons after Reid had them in the cellar? Did you even follow football before this season?
1 bad year doesn't equal cellar especially when you finish 2nd in the divison.
Oh God I want nothing to do with Childress. This really is Reid 2.0
Much rather keep Shurmur as OC and bring in Schwartz

You do realize that he did that with players brought in by the previous regime? You know that he then traded those players and then went downhill?
Did you watch your eagles team closely before the Revolution arrived?
Still is from what I have seen.
Have to give him credit cause he did change somewhat after Philly. Here he refused to switch from 4-3 to 3-4 and thus many qualified D-Coordinators were never even considered after Jim Johnson fired. That's when he randomly promoted the oline coach to D coordinator.
In KC, he has less personnel say, thet run a 3-4, and from what I have seen her doesn't force Alex Smith into 40+ passes. While with the Eagles he was the most pass happy coach in NFL history even when he had RBs like Duce, Westbrook, and McCoy.

Source says Jim Schwartz has offers to serve as defensive coordinator from multiple teams. But not known if Eagles have made an offer yet.

It is weird the Eagles tried to push Shurmur as oc on TC, but I bet they get Chilly for OC with Pederson.
Yeah 4-12 last place in the divison is cellar. Especially after a trend of getting worse each year.
Finishing 6-10 and 2nd in the divison isn't. But this is pointless since you can't get anything past Reid equals good and should never been fired.
Players who Reid couldn't use to win.
Same how Reid inherited talent in KC. That happens with every coach change.
He only traded McCoy, cut Desean, and Maclin left in FA.
Chip inherited talented offensive skill players, complete unknown in Foles, and a horrific Defense. He won with those players but only cause he made adjustments and used them right. Many of the moves he made this off season were to fix that D but didn't work.
But thanks for trying though.

SMH other iggles fans please try to base reactions in reality.
I was joking
about Chip going after Toby. He's most definitely tanking this upcoming season to position himself for Christian Mccaffrey.
Good luck with that.
Time with Eagles means his whole time here.
Eagles this past year obviously passed more than usual under Chip with the failures of the oline, RBs, and being behind all the time.
Still doesn't change what I said. Reid was the most pass happy.
