Report: Eagles interviewed Kliff Kingsbury for vacant offensive coordinator position

by Jimmy Kempski

The Cardinals' best season under Kingsbury was in 2021, when they jumped out to a 10-2 record, before losing four of their last five games before getting blown out in the wildcard round of the playoffs. That sounds familiar for some reason.

Report: Eagles interviewed Jerrod Johnson for vacant offensive coordinator job

by Jimmy Kempski

Soon-to-be Offensive Rookie of the Year C.J. Stroud had an outstanding rookie season at quarterback for the Texans, and he didn't run a simple offense. Stroud was mature as a quarterback beyond his years, throwing with anticipation, and displaying an ability to read defenses, in addition to making good use of his pure physical talents. As such, it should be no surprise that Johnson is getting some interest as a coordinator.

Report: Eagles to interview former Jaguars defensive coordinator Mike Caldwell

by Jimmy Kempski

If Caldwell is interviewing for a job working with the linebackers, that is a position where he has definitively had success, and the Eagles could certainly use a strong coach at that position. His résumé as a defensive coordinator is less accomplished.

by Jimmy Kempski

Rivera has 13 NFL seasons under his belt as a head coach. He has a career record of 102-103-2. He was 76-63-1 with the Panthers, which included a Super Bowl appearance in 2015, and 26-40-1 with the Commanders. He has six additional years as a defensive coordinator with the Bears and Chargers.

Report: Eagles de facto defensive coordinator Matt Patricia 'plans to explore other opportunities'

by Jimmy Kempski

It was already obvious that Philadelphia Eagles de facto defensive coordinator Matt Patricia would not be returning to the team in 2024, but we have the first reporting to confirm that.

Report: Eagles fire defensive coordinator Sean Desai

by Jimmy Kempski

After a three-game stretch against the Bills, 49ers, and Cowboys during which the Eagles allowed 109 points (36.3 per game) and 1,355 yards (451.7 per game), Sean Desai was demoted and was replaced by de facto defensive coordinator Matt Patricia. In reality, he was fired over a month ago.
