Yep - looking good!

If there's one fan base in the NFL I wouldn't look to for reasonable informed opinions it's the Eagles.

He's older yes, 60 I think. Loaded roster? You really think his defense is more loaded than Philly? I don't.

I think Anarumo is 56...Gannon is 40. Gen-X vs Elder Millenial...lol

 

[SECTION 11]

All of these guys feel like putting $100 on red.

I meant Gannon. I don’t think he’s the mcvay of defense. I want Lou.

 

[Cheesebeef]

I really don’t get why the Eagles OC was nowhere near our radar.

Could it be a Bienemy thing...that the offense is really Siriani, not Steichen? Honest question...I've never looked into it.

That's what I read he's called. Ron In DC said Anarumo is 56 so that's better than 60 lol. The Anarumo Bengals defense the last 2 years against the Chiefs & Bills got stop after stop, he's my choice anyway. I read that his 2nd interview was very impressive.

Probably because Kyler is too fragile lol. No way he could take what Hurts takes.

Kyler day 1: What is this quarterback sneak thing?

Gannon did more with Reddick in one season than Vance ever could have

Gannon did nothing special in Philly this year.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

That defense is pretty stacked.

That’s my concern

 

[BirdGangThing]

Gannon did nothing special in Philly this year.

Cool story bro, Gannon did absolutely nothing, sure, except for leading the NFL in sacks, having one of the top ranked defenses in the league, and making it to the super bowl. There's this thing called the internet lol, you should check it out sometime

Must be why he was such a hot commodity for promotion this past month.

Could it have anything to do with the fact that early on he said he was coming back to the Eagles? His name popping up for AZ just happened.

 

[Metcalf Rules]

I keep thinking of Rich Gannon, the QB every time I hear about Gannon from Philly. Rich was a solid qb.

 

[GatorAZ]

Hurts? Lol

If I’m an Eagles fan I’d be feeling better about Hurts going forward then I did before the SB… Fumble-six be damned.

What exactly did he have to do? By the time he got him Reddick was a known quantity and asset. It was already clear as day what he could do?

Got more head coaching interviews than Lou Anarumo.

Gannon's current Wikipedia:

Philadelphia Eagles[edit]​

In 2021, Gannon was hired by the Philadelphia Eagles as the team's defensive coordinator.

Gannon faced heavy criticism after the Eagles blew a ten point halftime lead and gave up 31 points to lose by a score of 38-35 in Super Bowl LVII.[5] The Eagles became just the second team in NFL history to blow a double digit lead at halftime in Super Bowl history.[5] Gannon was described as failing to adjust in the second half as the Chief's offense scored on every drive in the second half.[5] In the second half, the Eagles secondary appeared confused leaving Chief's receivers wide open at times.[5] Additionally, Gannon was criticized for staying in a soft zone the entire game allowing Chief's quarterback Patrick Mahomes to throw quick passes that prevented the Eagle's defense line from getting any pressure.[5]

2 to 1. Gannon probably gets more opportunities if he doesn't announce to the world he's going back to the Eagles, after he interviewed with Texans.

Whatever this means...

Reddick had a 12-sack season before leaving AZ, and he was a known commodity before landing in Philly.

 

[PJ1]

I mean, he didn't. Not sure how Gannon is supposed to defend a scoop and score.

Or a punt return to the 5 yard line.

LOL. "Soft zone". What every fan thinks you're running if you don't crush the receiver at the LOS.

Eagles ran man coverage 56%. Their highest of the season.

Eagles fans suck.

 

[GoldGloveschmidt]

Gannon is their Vance Joseph. Wonderful.
