Some more details on the firing of Philadelphia Eagles D-coordinator Sean McDermott. http://es.pn/fkJI9K

Quote:

Reid said in a season-ending news conference McDermott would be retained.

Within three days of that declaration, sources say Reid informed McDermott he had changed his mind

For a coach as good as Reid you sure cant trust him at all.

Reid probably didn't count on losing Jauron.

Yes he did... He gave teams permission to talk to him.
He shouldn't have been fired. He atleast held Rodgers to only 21 pts. ATL nearly gave up 50 vs him!

Reid rarely fires a coach. Something must have happened.

not surprising, actually. Andy took some power away from Sean early in the season. Eagles D was terrible all season. especially in the red zone.

Cant really put too much blame on the dc.....theplayers did not do wrll at all.....only samuel and cole thats all they have. They need better players
well all i know it wasnt Reids fault. it is never his fault. all the Neg crap that happens on that team it is never Reids fault. but when something is going well he soaks in all praise.

they had a lot of injuries to their D during the season but their overall problems started last season.
If Leavett doesnt come, he'd be a good LB coach..

Singletary did the exact same thing to Raye. He said he would be retained, then he "watched film" and fired him the next day.
