Doug Pederson just coached his 51st game. Here’s why that’s significant.

Philadelphia’s 24-0 shutout victory over the Washington Redskins in Week 17 was Doug Pederson’s 51st game as Eagles head coach.

“My beloved 76ers once hired a guy by the name of Roy Rubin from Long Island University. Poor Roy. He finished 4-47 before the Sixers canned him. 4-47! Years later, Fred Carter said ‘Letting Rubin coach was like letting a teenager run a big corporation.’

Hey Fred, meet the Eagles’ head coach, Doug Pederson! Now, everybody knows Pederson isn’t a head coach. He might be less qualified to coach a team than anyone I’ve ever seen in my 30-plus years in the NFL.
