Joe Brady's two notable coaching jobs were in 2020 with the Panthers as their OC, and as LSU's passing game coordinator & wide receivers coach in 2019, when LSU rolled to the CFB National Championship, largely on the strength of their passing game.

Report: Eagles to interview Patriots LB coach Jerod Mayo for vacant HC job

Report: Eagles to interview Buccaneers DC Todd Bowles for vacant HC job

In 2020, the Buccaneers had the best run defense in the NFL under Todd Bowles. They were No. 1 in opposing rushing attempts, rushing yards, rushing TDs, and yards per rush. In that sense, his "stop the run first" style of defense is similar to the approach we have seen over the years from Jim Schwartz.

Eagles stay or go: Doug Pederson

Doug Pederson will reportedly meet with Jeffrey Lurie again on Monday in Florida, perhaps getting another crack at convincing Lurie that he has the answers, or maybe is willing to tell him what he wants to hear. Or maybe the decision has already been made, and Pederson is just going to get whacked. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
