I'm with QB_Eagles and want BB as the Cowboys coach too. With a talented team (like Dallas and Philly are), Belichick will dominate again I think.

I doubt Philly goes with Bill, though. It doesn't seem to be their style. Much more likely to hire an up and coming offensive coach IMO. Ben Johnson makes a lot of sense to me there.


I want Ben Johnson

They’ll hire bill belichick

They interviewed Josh mcdaniels for 16 hours, they like patriots stuff

But I hope it’s Ben Johnson and dennard wilson. That’d be my home run. But I’ll still support if they hire bill belichick. I’ll just be a tad nervous
Ben is headed to WSH imo


So eagles need to throw whatever they can at Ben Johnson

A guy like belichick is neither of those teams style. Belichick wants control over roster moves. Jerry needs full control of the team. Likewise, for the eagles that guy is howie roseman. I just can’t see a guy like belichick going to one of those teams to be a yes man.

I think Howie would tolerate it for a few years, if it's a kind of deal where he's still technically superior in personnel decisions, while Bill is practically running things. A few years is all it takes because Belichick would either get fired, or he would retire at some point.

For the record I don’t believe in the coach can’t win a SB with two teams. Just a smaller sample size.
Use to be the same thing with QBs that they couldn’t win with two teams.
If you won a SB coaching you probably stayed there for your career. Or retired.
Maybe BB would cut the penalties in Dallas and give them more focus.

There was a time when the league’s leading rusher had never made it to the SB. Then Emmitt did it three times.

Sirianni is gonna be coaching the eagles next year

Recievers are never open, defenses are never properly attacked, eagles never have a RB or TE to help with protection.

Jalen literally drops back on a blitz and there’s no one open and usually 1 to 2 free runners


How did they have the last season? How did they get 10-1 this season? It baffles me how the eagles gotten so bad.


I am subscribing to the Niners broke them theory, nothing else fits. Not like their schedule got more difficult.

I like Belichick for Eagles, might be the only team that makes sense for Belichick.

Really didnt expect Bucs to go this far this season, tbh I wouldnt be shocked if they beat the Lions. I think buc stops here lol Lions are better every way and shape imo. Only hope is they are inexperienced.

AFC is so much better than NFC this season. Niners are the only great team in NFC and I think even they would lose to top teams in AFC, sorry Turk.

I do agree Niners would be a slight underdog against 3 of the remaining teams in AFC. Remaining quarterbacks in AFC is very good-- Mahomes, Allen, Stroud, Lamar-- Lamar is the MVP and he might be the worst one out of that group.

Not many were surprised the eagles lost with the way they’ve played the past 6 weeks it’s the way they lost the point differential


The cowboys the same even tho many had them as most likely to be upset just not in that fashion 27-6 @halftime was deflating

Key to coaching is recruiting staff. Siriani failed after his top 2 guys left. This was Sabans Masterpiece. He went and got Pete Carroll guys, and took off again with the passing game

I thought the same thing. Hurts played good for the most part but the play calls and route concepts weren’t doing hurts any favors. The eagles need a coach that has more creativity for the offense. The strategy is “our guys are better than your guys” and that isn’t gonna work when you have a super basic offense that even fans can call out plays that are coming next, the defense definitely can too..lol

But Jerry loves media attention and he would continue to dominate coverage if they hire BB. He would likely do it SB week cause that's who he is lol

Huge props to Baker Mayfield though. Dude got ran out of Cleveland after a couple of injury plagued seasons and really played well this year, maybe his best year. He seems like a cool dude and I'm glad he will get to continue being a starting QB in the league

I think both the eagles and cowboys would want belicheck but I don’t think belicheck would want them unless they have some assurances on roster decisions written into his contract prior to signing.

Sounds like Belichick might prefer the Falcons.
