FOX analyst lists Philadelphia Eagles Wentz, Pederson among NFL’s best
How do the Philadelphia Eagles coach and quarterback stack up you ask?
There will always be those topics that exist concerning the Philadelphia Eagles head coach and quarterback regardless of who the men are that fill those roles. Since the “Birds” made the decision to make Doug Pederson the 23rd head coach in franchise history and current vice president and general manager Howie Roseman traded up twice in 2016’s NFL Draft to give him a signal-caller to attach his legacy to, Carson Wentz and Philly’s leader on the field have had both their supporters and those NFL fans who are ready to run them out of Philly.
Love him or hate him, FOX Sports’ Colin Cowherd, the creator and host of The Herd With Colin Cowherd, is definitely among the supporters. Not only did he defend Wentz to his detractors less than two weeks ago, at June’s midpoint, he also took some time to rank who he believes to be the top ten head coach and quarterback duos in the NFL.
According to the always outspoken Cowherd, Philly’s QB1 and the man that calls the plays on gameday are second in the NFL. Does anyone have any doubt about who topped the list?
