Default Frank Reich was the Jenga piece in Philly
The Eagles' problems this year are well-known. Pederson's offense is struggling despite having Wentz back and healthy.

But we now see that John DeFilippo, the QB coach for Philly that got so much positive press for coaching up Wentz and Foles, was just fired as OC of the Vikings:

I'm not really one to gush over front office or coaching staff but I'm very glad to have Reich as the Colts HC.

It's weird that 13 games in and he's far and away the best coach we've had since Dungy.

Josh McDaniels' eyes are too close together.

He's also a bitch-ass visor-wearing bootlicking piece of shit.

I like what I'm seeing, but don't judge these things too quickly. At this stage, Jim Caldwell had yet to lose a game with the Colts.

Difference is he took a already established team and turned it to shit. Reich is turning shit around into good.

To keep some perspective, there were only two others. Jim Caldwell and Chuck Pagano are hardly a mountain to climb.

However I LOVE having Reich on the sideline. Energy. Organization. Balls. All good things.

Hindsight is 20/20. Hopefully Reich trends upwards and not downwards over the next several years.

There was Bruce Arians as well. He was probably the best coach here since Dungy even if it was only for a season, or most of it.

But I like Reich better than Arians. His vertical passing game mindset that got stuck in the system here held back Luck and contributed to his injury plagued career.

just using the eye test:

caldwell and pagano looked perpetually confused.

reich gives the sense that he knows what he is doing.
