The final game vs. the WFT had nothing to do with it. This move was brewing for a while.

Disagree 1000%. Ain't sayin the thought never entered Lurie's mind before the final game but that game was the last straw. Pederson shot himself in the foot with that silly decision then doubling down by lying about it.

Could Frost be like Saban, be a big boy, and hire Pederson to be Nebraska's OC?

Frost should have really stepped up and gone after Urban as an OC. Gotta wear big boy pants if we want to compete. Just match whatever he wanted and we would have got him.

Pederson nearly quit last year when he and the front office didn't agree on staff moves. It's been a longstanding issue where Doug wanted to promote his guys from within, while the front office saw the need to bring in new people. The writing has been on the wall for quite some time. Many refused to see it...blinded by the 2017 Super Bowl. It's a tough business, and Philly's front office doesn't mess around.

Regardless of whether or not they "mess around" . They're screwed. Pederson is a very good coach. Philly's biggest problems going forward are the contract that brilliant front office gave Wentz and the crappy O line they've assembled.

Nah. Their O line is better than you think. Just need to stay healthy. Doug went vanilla. Soft serve.
