When you fail this spectacularly after seizing control of personnel moves (they also fired his lackey there), especially after running off or ditching talent already on the team, and the general attitude players have toward him, I don't think Lurie felt he had much of a choice.
Sure. He did win here. But he also let a lot of other people walk. Chip isn't the guy to white knight
So they gave it one season? That's some commitment. Also, they're 6-9 right? I mean, they aren't drafting first or anything. That team was set up to fail from a QB point of view if you ask me. Was he supposed to keep Nick Foles? Start Sanchez?
Yes, I'm white knighting him, or you know, questioning whether it was possibly premature to fire the guy. Maybe they can go get that playoff coach...what's his name, Andy Reid?
Ugh.. You obviously haven't been following this team. He let 2 offensive line players go which totally exposed our undersized center, traded McCoy then overpaid another RB who he didn't even bother to put in the best position to suit his ability. Brought in a CB who didn't come close to earning the money he got. let Maclin walk instead of paying another million, had some really bad draft picks and coached a team who could never just play 4 quarters. He's terrible and I'm glad he's gone. We also owe the Rams a 2nd for Bradford...
