Imagine This Offseason

Howie Roseman has done him zero favors.  They have an absolutely garbage OL, and the receiving corp is among the worst in the league. No wonder their offense, and specifically Wentz sucks.

His (Roseman) recent free agency signings have been poor, and his recent drafting has been abysmal.  He's built out a bad team these last few years.

So it's really easy to just assume Pederson suddenly forgot to coach offense, or that he became a terrible coach overnight.  But if you remember that they're a club with an actual GM, who's pulling the strings, you might think twice about laying on the blame on him.

Doug Pederson was a great OC working side by side with Reid in Kansas City, and he helped get the ball rolling there.  

He was a more than solid NFL coach up until this year.  Obviously he won a Superbowl, but he also had 3 winning seasons in 4 years, with his worst being 7-9.  His overall record was 38-25.

So, I don't think he just forgot to coach in 2021.  I think there's a lot more going on there than that.

There are rumors out there that Pederson doesn't even care if he gets fired at this point. Since we're dreaming big and all.....
