The main reasons his tenure was so highly regarded include:
• Quarterback Development: He was instrumental in transforming Jalen Hurts from an unproven second-year quarterback into an MVP runner-up and Pro Bowler.
• Elite 2022 Offense: In 2022, Steichen took over primary play-calling duties. He engineered an offense that ranked 3rd in the NFL in scoring (28.1 points per game) and 3rd in total yards (389.1 per game), setting several franchise records.
• Historic Rushing Attack: Over his two seasons (2021–2022), Philadelphia ranked 1st in the NFL in rushing yards per game (153.6), total rushing yards (5,224), and rushing touchdowns (57).
• Super Bowl Performance: Even though the Eagles lost Super Bowl LVII, Steichen's offense executed beautifully on the biggest stage, putting up 35 points and 427 total yards against the Kansas City Chiefs.

I may be in the minority here, but I don't want to see Shane fired. I have a minor beef with him still believing in Danny pennies, and hope he gives AR a chance. He truly can't do any worst than Daniel and even if he does, games will be more exciting, at least for me. If AR has not improved, then move on from both of them.There has to be another Brock Purdy somewhere.
