Is Doug Pederson becoming too much of a player’s coach?

There are some concerns about head coach Doug Pederson that aren’t related to offensive and defensive preparation. Former head coach Andy Reid provided consistency with the Philadelphia Eagles and led the team for 14 years. Whether true or untrue, the perception is that the only major issues he had was managing the personalities of strong minded players like former wide receivers DeSean Jackson and Terrell Owens. For the most part, Reid was respected, but he truly had control of what was going on with his players for the majority of his tenure in Philadelphia.
