The Philadelphia Eagles are firing the only head coach to ever win them a Super Bowl

The Philadelphia Eagles were the defending NFC champions coming into this year, and were the only team in the division that didn’t have a new head coach. They also had a franchise QB who got a huge extension to lead the team back to the playoffs for years to come.

Then 2020 happened and everything fell apart spectacularly. COVID-19, injuries, a kick the can down the road salary cap, and the complete disaster that was Carson Wentz doomed the season, and now Head Coach Doug Pederson is out and the rebuild is on. Philadelphia went from first to worst in the NFC East and finished the season 4-11-1 and will have the #6 pick in this year’s draft.
