If there was any remote chance that Reid would be fired during the season, Castillo would wind up being the interim head coach. I really want to see that now.

Well the o-line is basically playing a wide 9 too so the transition for him would be seamless.

I'd like too see Roseman and Banner as the OC and DC respectively.

Why is thread only 2 pages long? In fact, why didn't we have it in 2003?

Had it in at least '07:

I am a strong believer that the overwhelming majority of the time, the team with the better head coach and/or quarterback will win any given game. Here's a list who the Eagles have gone up against so far and their career records:

St Louis - Steve Spagnuluo (8-28) / Sam Bradford (7-13)
Atlanta - Mike Smith (34-17) / Matt Ryan (35-16)
NY Giants - Tom Coughlin (136-107) / Eli Manning (63-46)
SF 49ers - Jim Harbaugh (4-1) / Alex Smith (23-36)
Buffalo - Chan Gailey (26-27) / Ryan Fitzpatrick (20-25-1)

Philly - Andy Reid (119-74-1) / Mike Vick (57-45-1)

Atl and NY aren't shocking losses, although the manner that they lost is frustrating. But when you look at the other losses, SF and Buffalo, it's absolutely mind boggling that Reid was out coached by a guy in his first year and a guy who couldn't get out of his own way in Dallas. And they did it with QB's who have had problems with int's throughout their careers. Not to mention that they should probably thank Stephen Jackson's quad for blowing up in the opener otherwise they probably would have lost that too.

Reid has historically struggled against teams with winning records, so the Buf and SF losses shouldn't be completely shocking. But the Giants and Falcons are both sub .500 which means Reid isn't even beating mediocre teams.

I really hope the Rams tank the rest of the year and Spagnuluo gets canned. Don't know if I want him as the HC, but would love to see him come back as the DC.

I think Reid is so burnt out that dissecting tape on upcoming teams has become more of a burden at this point.

He goes with his stubborn gameplan regardless of opponents and relies on trickery to get him out of a jam. I was waiting for Comanche to be called on the last drive but it never happened.

From WWTDD.com...

QuoteLindsay Lohan has to go to court Wednesday for a progress report on her probation, which should be awesome considering she hasn't done shtein. And since "hasn't done shtein" is a clear violation of the judges orders, TMZ says she could get over a year in jail.

Of course we've heard this a hundred times before, and nothing ever seems to happen to her. The .gif of LeSean McCoy punching Andy Reid in his fat stomach yesterday is here to illustrate that (slow motion version over on deadspin). Andy Reid is all of us in this scenario, and LeSean McCoy is Justice. He's supposed to be on our side but then he just sucker punches us in the stomach for no reason (*). Then again, farg Andy Reid. This and a 2-4 record is what you get for giving the dog killer 100 million dollars. Reap what you sow, fat ass!

Roob:

QuoteSince 1971, the Cowboys have lost 21 games by 27 or more points. Six of those 21 losses were to Andy Reid.

wow...chock that stat up in the "pro" Andy column

Rome · November 01, 2011, 09:03:32 PM

Can you imagine how many Super Bowls that fat motherfarger would have won if he had stuck to the running game like he did against the Cowboys?

Something tells me he's due for a amnesia attack.

As happy as I was to see them beat the Cowboy's that way, it always concerns me because he's done it in the past - gone to the run, called a balanced game and had it turn out great. The week after it's as if he has a new found smugness and goes away from the run, and wings the ball all over the place.
