Report: Eagles want to hire Steve Spagnuolo as defensive coordinator
Posted by Josh Alper on January 17, 2016
The Eagles were reportedly hot on the trail of Ben McAdoo before the Giants hired him as their new head coach and they spoke to McAdoo’s predecessor Tom Coughlin before ultimately deciding to hire Doug Pederson.
Their interest in all things 2015 Giants may not be over, however. Les Bowen and Marcus Hayes of the Philadelphia Daily News report that the Eagles are interested in hiring Steve Spagnuolo as their defensive coordinator.
Spagnuolo and Pederson were both assistants under Andy Reid with the Eagles, although they didn’t work for the team at the same time. Spagnuolo moved on to his first stint with as the Giants defensive coordinator in 2007 and promptly won a Super Bowl ring that helped propel him to a three-year run as the head coach of the Rams.
His return to the Giants in 2015 didn’t go nearly as well, although the Giants reportedly want to bring him back and can block Spagnuolo from moving to any other team for a coordinator job.
-----------
Why is everybody fighting over this bum?
His defenses are consistently in the bottom 10 in the NFL.
---------
The Eagles have Weapons on the D-Line and the LBs but problem is there a 3-4 Team. Spaggs is a 4-3 coach
--------
Wrong. The Eagles have 4-3 personnel but have pretended to be a 3-4 team the last couple of years. The front 7 is ready to go right now in a 4-3.
-----------
Yeah, I think I quit being an Eagles fan. I refuse to believe that a combo of Pederson and Spagnuolo is going to produce a playoff team.
-------
His defenses in New Orleans (2012) and New York (2015) have been horrible, not just bad but historically bad. Why anyone would want to hire him for this position is crazy.
-------
If I’m the Giants I’m definitely giving him the opportunity to take a job with one of our rivals. I might toss in a late draft pick to go with him. He might be the worst DC in football right now.
-------
Spagnuolo is the Matt Flynn of defensive coordinators.
Dude is still getting hired based on his 07 defense that happened to have 3-4 elite pass rushers.
--------
What else can Philly do to rekindle that mid-2000s nostalgia? I hear Jeff Garcia is still available.
--------
The Eagles can gladly take the Giants linebackers and defensive backfield. I’ll throw in the Defensive line for free!
Why would any team want to emulate the worst defense in the NFL?
---------
Why? Koko the monkey could out coach this guy.
--------
Please let him go!!!!
