Pope Flick Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Not an Eagles fan, and am not sure if anyone got fired after last year's loss, but if they lose their 4th straight NFC Championship game who - if anyone - should be shown the door? Is Reid 'cutting it' if he drops this game, or does the fact they keep making it help him avoid some heat? SImply curious, because as a Bears fan I haven't sniffed this in a very long time....

NSab Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Andy Ried is here for at least a while. he isn't going anywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatman Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 I don't know the situation very well, but from what I do know, both DC Jim Johnson and OC Brad Childress are held in VERY high regard. Can't imagine it would be either of them, if they can even retain both of them (Childress has been rumored for some other head coaching jobs).

Marauders11 Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Andy Ried will coach the Eagles as long as Jeff Laurie owns the team and as long as he wants to. Despite losing 3 straight NFC Championships, Ried has done a remarkable job with this franchise since he took over in 1999. He's even managed to win over the hearts of the Eagle fans, which ain't easy to do...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balzac Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 I can't imagine anything would happen from a personnel standpoint if the Eagles lose . . . just making it to the NFC championship 4 straight years is a ridiculous accomplishment in and of itself. You'd also have to consider that they're playing without the guy who was brought in to put them over the top . . . As a completely useless aside, I tried to make the Eagles my NFC team when I lived in Philly but they were just terrible at the time - borderline unwatchable. I'll tip my drink to Shula's, as it allowed me to escape having to watch the Eagles each Sunday . . . that was a cool place - too bad it closed down.

Scrambled Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 I think all jobs are safe besides the fact that they play in a weak NFC east. The head coach has done an excellent job in phili and they would be stupid to get rid of him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vet Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 It will be standing room only on the city's bridges as fans line up to toss themselves into the Delaware, but I don't see alot of upheaval on the team. Maybe a token firing here or there, but the main cast of characters will be back. If they were smart, they'd fire Reid and bring in Marv Levy - at least he knows how to win Conference Championship games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Menudo Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 (edited) Yes, heads will roll. Whoever is wearing a Falcon uniform in the stands will have their heads rolled. Women, children, dogs, cats, no matter. They probably did warn everybody though, so don't complain if something happens.
