RUMORS FLY THAT REID IS ON HIS WAY OUT
After a tumultuous personal offseason involving legal troubles for two of his sons and a disappointing 1-3 start to the 2007 campaign, it should surprise no one that rumors are circulating that Eagles coach Andy Reid will step down after the season, if not sooner.
The fact that these events are unfolding in Philadelphia will only make the storm more intense. The unexpected qualification of the Phillies for the baseball playoffs could stave off the bulk of the scrutiny for as long as a month, but eventually the Phils will be done -- and the focus will shift back to the Eagles.
And the name to watch in this regard is Jon Gruden.
Gruden's star is back on the rise as he leads the Bucs out of last season's disaster to a 3-1 start. If he can find a way to beat the Colts on Sunday without tailback Cadillac Williams and left tackle Luke Petitgout, Gruden will shoot straight to the top of the "A" list. Though that might prompt some to conclude that the Glazers will decide that they don't want to let Gruden go if he can propel the Buccaneers back to the postseason, the talk in league and media circles is that ownership is ready to make a change, regardless of how this season plays out.
With that said, we wouldn't be surprised to see Tampa try to recover some of the draft picks and/or cash that was sent to Oakland when Gruden was hired in 2002.

Anyone who believes that lives at least 250 miles away from philadelphia.You have to realize how far up the owners ass Reid is.Mcnabb coming back from a career threatning injury is a built in excuse for Reid this year.Not to mention the fact that we won the division last year with our back up QB.Add that together with the Eagles drafting a QB for the future which Reid did once before(Mcnabb) to great results mean theres no way he's going anywhere for the next three years.Its simply ridiculous.There is no intense storm, we have an hurt QB, we've been good for 10 years.The only person on the hot seat is Mcnabb.
I love how Gruden goes 3-1 and all the sudden he's a hot shot coach again.Remind me how many superbowls he's won without a Tony Dungy built team?

A.J. Daulerio went to high school right down the street from me and wrote for deadspin(the site that boasts no inside access).He also "broke" a story about some eagles players being involved with dog fighting that I'm sure you never heard of because it wasnt true.

I'm not sure I understand the implication of that.
