We all know the triumvirate of Howie Roseman/Chip Kelly/Jeffrey Lurie didn’t have the smoothest relationship. In fact, Howie and Chip’s could be described like that of oil and… someone who took oil’s job and made it a laughingstock. The Eagles’ brain trust, as you know, wanted someone more amenable to their wishes this time around, so Howie is happy to finally confirm what we all suspected– that the Eagles got their yes-man:
.@Eagles Howie Roseman: on hiring of Pederson: very easy marriage for us, his vision for team was right in line w ours #FlyEaglesFly

*That vision is reported to be: “Whatever you say Mr. Lurie by gosh I’m just happy to be here.”
