We all know Garrett has no problems throwing assistants under the bus to save his own skin, just look at how many different coordinators there have been under Garrett. So the question becomes, who is Garrett going to throw under the bus for this chit season? We all know Garrett is the sacred cow in the barn, so who will be the sacrificial lamb in the pasture offered up to the fans?

My bet is Scotty Linehan, I think he is shown the door and it will be pitched to the fans that he couldn't properly design a competent offense for Dak once Zeke was suspended.
all are kept ,go in peace brother

You may be right my friend, probably nobody will lose their job.............however, that is going to be a tough sell for Jerry to basically tell the fans that no changes are being made to a team that is getting beat by 20+ every week.

Tough sell indeed

I hate Garrett but I have to agree the real problem is Jerrah, and now you can add Stephen.

Put a 13-3 team in rebuild mode.

Did squat in FA.

Knew their bell cow was headed to suspension, made no real plan B, got into a destined to lose urine contest with the league.

Sits and watches 3 humiliating losses in a row then praises the staff and tells the players Happy Thanksgiving

I believe OL Coach, Frank Pollock might take the fall for this team's flop.

Under his supervision, the OL has declined into an undeniable disaster.
Not really his fault they decided not to resign Leary and Doug Free retired

Neither will be fired. One or both may leave on their own accord but neither will be fired.

nobody. the losses can be chalked up to injuries. this is a talented staff and it oughtn't be blown up because of things beyond its control.

Jerry??

Eagles have had similar injuries and are thriving. Same with Pats. We are only team where 1-2 guys equals disaster

The 13-3 team was a once-in-a- lifetime team. Young and full of confidence. Did not know much about losing. But, we peaked too soon and were not playing well at the end. Never seemed the same after the Vikes beat us but still lost to us where it mattered. There were some writers who felt that Philly was better than us at the end of the year even though they missed the play offs. This team was not truly a 13 win team in January. Our expectations were skewed by this overall season and record and I was guilty of overrating the roster myself. We have many issues to address and reality is here.

Sack the whole lot of them. Garrett and company have failed us enough.

None of the coordinators are getting fired nor the coach. None.
Not this time waving.

I don’t ever remember a stretch of total ineptitude as this one. Jerry may be stubborn but there is no way he puts up with what he is seeing on the field of play.

My bet is Marinelli is asked to coach/assist from up in the box like Kiffen. He either takes that or they ax him altogether.

IT has nothing to do with sacrifice and everything to do with poor performance. Marinelli/Eberflus cannot coordinate coverage and it's been 5 years. Teams can just get the ball out quickly and it stymies the pass rush.

Replacing Garrett is not going to fix that.

you can bet heads will roll this offseason. starting with Marinelli. possibly Linehan. i believe if we keep losing in this fashion JG will get dumped. it’s been 7 years with 1 playoff win? getting beat constantly this season vs rookie coaches? pathetic. 4 out 6 losses are at home... Garrett has to go, but i’m not convinced JJ will pull the trigger on him.
