Re: [NFL] Who replaces Andy Reid as Eagles head coach at year en said by I AM:I have a feeling Andy stays!!!!! It is finally official - Reid is fired. »www.philly.com/philly/sports/eag···ach.html
It's finally official: The Andy Reid era in Philadelphia is over.
Reid was fired Monday after 14 seasons at the helm of the Eagles. His dismissal comes one day after an embarrassing 42-7 loss at the New York Giants which put the finishing touches on a 4-12 season.
The Eagles will hold a press conference at noon. We'll have live coverage right here on Philly.com starting at 11:30 a.m.
"Andy Reid won the most games of any head coach in Eagles history and he is someone I respect greatly and will remain friends with for many years to come, Eagles chairman and CEO Jeff Lurie said in a press release. "But, it is time for the Eagles to move in a new direction. Coach Reid leaves us with a winning tradition that we can build upon. And we are very excited about the future.
Now, who replaces him. They need to move quickly in signing a replacement. Maybe today at news conference.

 capdjqRIP my friendPremium join:2000-11-01 Coastie | I really doubt that Bill Cowher &/or Jon Gruden will accept. They both have comfortable Reporting positions with no stress and fan abuse. Plus, and this is the main reason, Philly doesn't have a capable QB, without whom, you will get fired in 2 years. Shanahan was in the wilderness for years after John Elway. The "best" he had was the flaky and temperamental Jay Cutler. Look how far he has come with RGIII.
The best Philly can hope for is Chip Kelly who so wants to be a NFL Coach he will go anywhere or some Asst Coach who wants Head Coach on the Resume'. Philly has a long rebuilding. Too many Divas on the Team.
All the Teams who have fired head Coaches have no QBs, except maybe the Chargers. The changes will accomplish nothing. -- one cigarette costs 2 minutes of your life. one bottle of beer costs 4 minutes of your life. one working day costs 8 hours of your life.
