Howie Roseman: I think they hate the decision, Mr. Jeff!

Jeffrey Lurie: That’s fine, son. We’ll tell them Jaws was involved and that we had a big binder and then they’ll think we really knew what we were doing. Because Jaws was involved, that means Philadelphia.

Howie Roseman: Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh boy, Mr. Jeff, what a great idea! Oh this is so swell. You’re so smart. Spank me, please!

Apparently, supposedly, the Eagles’ coaching search party extended to those only loosely connected to the organization and currently employed by ESPN. This is new information, though the presence of a MASSIVE BINDER (is that where Mr. Lurie keeps his voluminous notes?) comes as no surprise. I wonder how many pages deep was the tab that read “DOUG PEDERSON”?

Few things:


This feels a lot like: We can’t talk about it because Pederson is still with the Chiefs, so we’ll have Ron Jaworski say he was involved and speak to Action News about it because he’s not technically an Eagles employee. And, BONUS!, people like Jaws and maybe this will sell fans on the fact that we hired our third, maybe fourth option, and he can tell all of those ESPN viewers how diligent we were in our search.

“Bird Search.”

Literally no idea why this would be in here, but now I’m intrigued. Maybe other notes Jaws had on-hand?

Me thinks the spin machine is in overdrive. Something smells fishy.
