Football At Four: Carson Wentz, Doug Pederson, Jeff Lurie
(January 6, 2021): On Wednesday's edition of Football at Four, Geoff Mosher joins The Sports Bash talking:
*Is the only realistic option the Eagles have with Carson Wentz moving forward is to "fix him"
*Would the Eagles push back against a Carson Wentz trade request by pointing to the contract extension he signed with them
*How many teams would be interested in acquiring Carson Wentz and would the Eagles get sufficient return in a deal
*Would the Eagles chose Carson Wentz over Doug Pederson if their relationship is "fractured"
*Any possibility that the Eagles will dismiss Doug Pederson this long after the season already ended
*Is bringing back Doug Pederson for another season as Head Coach the best move for the team
*Could part of the problem with the Eagles that the perception of the team is the fans are blaming the wrong people for the issues in the organization
*Aftermath of reports that players were frustrated with Doug Pederson and what we learned from Jason Kelce IG statement about what happened on Sunday Night
*Where should Jeff Lurie, Howie Roseman, and Doug Pederson start this offseason as they attempt to rectify the situation in Philadelphia moving forward
*Is Matt Burke the top candidate to be the Eagles next Defensive Coordinator or will the Eagles cast a wide net in their search
*Are there alternative reasons why Jim Schwartz is letting his contract expire and why he will no longer be the team's Defensive Coordinator
*Should the Eagles prioritize drafting a Safety in the 2021 NFL Draft and could Micah Parsons be a more versatile player than he has been classified as by some experts
*Has there been too much made of Doug Pederson's relationship with the players
*Can we accept that part of the reason the Eagles had a 4-11-1 record this season is because they we so aggressive in roster building the last few years
*If the Eagles didn't suffer so many injuries during the 2020 NFL season, would they have won more games
