Why Duce makes the most sense as Eagles OC, by Reuben Frank

[IronEagle]

I really can't disagree with any of this.

He does makes the most sense but I have this feeling they are going outside the organization for it.

The more I think about it, the more sense it makes.

They are still going to run the same basic offense. Doug is still going to call plays. Let's see what Duce can do.

Frankly I don't see how they can justify not giving Duce the job.

The biggest upside is he would push to run the ball. The problem seems to be they want a QB whisperer for Wentz. I would take a physical OC any day.

That’s easy to fix, bring back McCown as a QB position coach....keep the same faces and positive leader while not upsetting the hierarchy. ( McCown taking direction from Duce)

This is what makes the most sense, IMO, assuming McCown doesn't want to try for another year as a QB.

but this is why I think they need to bring someone from outside of the organization in. I think They need to bring someone in who will bring in new ideas for Doug to work with. Continuing to promote within stifles new ways of thinking. I’m just not crazy about promoting Duce.

I'm not either. I love him where he is, he has a lot of influence, I don't doubt he could do the job... I just want new blood, new ideas and approaches in that room.

I was on the Gruden train, but I think Jim Caldwell is my top choice. I don't care that he's older. Older guys know more because they've seen more. Caldwell would be great for Wentz.

Caldwell would be my top pick as well.

Jay Gruden for me but doubt he will take it

If he's going to coach in 2020, it's going to be as an OC. Where will come down to money.

[Maniac]

Yeah, Jim Caldwell is full of new ideas.

Ya I agree with this. He was promoted to assistant head coach so he already had that title. I feel his influence is there no matter what. Doug needs someone from the outside to challenge his ideas and bring in new ones.

No offense to anyone but Gruden was a disaster in Washington. Maybe he is a better OC than he was a HC but fuck a Cowboy Giant or Redskin lol. Caldwell works for me.
