They wasted Luanne on Lucky!

She could of have been so much more but the writers just didn't care!
How could you forget the most recent and dumbest Lombardi take off all, which took like, all of six months to be proven completely wrong.

quote:

My beloved 76ers once hired a guy by the name of Roy Rubin from Long Island University. Poor Roy. He finished 4-47 before the Sixers canned him. 4-47! Years later, Fred Carter said ‘Letting Rubin coach was like letting a teenager run a big corporation.’

Hey Fred, meet the Eagles’ head coach, Doug Pederson! Now, everybody knows Pederson isn’t a head coach. He might be less qualified to coach a team than anyone I’ve ever seen in my 30-plus years in the NFL.

Pederson was barely a coordinator before he became head coach. Can you imagined if we elected a United States president who didn’t have any real training? Sorry, don’t answer that.

Look, the Eagles looked increasingly sloppy and unprepared as the 2016 season limped along. That ain’t changing in ’17.

Only Carson Wentz can save Pederson’s job, and Wentz actually got worse during his rookie year, not better.

When will the Eagles admit their mistake? Will they throw away 2017 by stubbornly sticking to the Pederson Principle?

The immortal Roy Rubin lasted 51 games. I bet Doug Pederson lasts way less than that.

Bad, very bad!

Keep in mind this isn't even the take he had to apologize for. He called Doug Pederson 'less qualified to coach a team than anyone I've ever seen,' right before Pederson won the Eagles (the Eagles!) a super bowl. With a backup quarterback. Against Bill Belichick.

The only good one year firing Jimmy Haslem has ever made was getting rid of Lombardi. Which is immediately canceled out by ever hiring him in the first place.

e: oh there's a new page. Yeah Christ, Lombardi is amazing in all the wrong ways.

He's also just a type of loud, irritating reactionary rear end in a top hat that we don't need any more of in football journalism. Listening to his podcast you'll be subjected to a stream of self-important nonsense and cliches. The funniest thing is how seriously he takes himself, though. There's a pretty good joke there if your taste in humor extends to such things

Their blitzes have been really effective. That's why you have good team stats but no single player is dominating the sack count

Yeah, in 2016 he was a first team all pro with 16 sacks... this year he has 1 sack and 5 tackles.

And yeah tackles don't tell you very much, but if you're playing most defensive snaps as a DE and you have 5 of them after half a year, you're loving bad.

I can't find it but 2016 week 1 against Tampa he came out of his stance when the ball was snapped, the olinemen stood up and retreated to get in pass pro, Vic spun against air because the olinemen didn't even touch him and he fell down. It was the most pathetic thing I've ever seen and I'm bummed I can't find it.
