Report: Eagles could be losing OL coach Jeff Stoutland to Alabama

by Jimmy Kempski

Stoutland has been with the team since 2013, and he is an assistant that the Eagles would be highly likely to want to retain, no matter who they ultimately hire as their new head coach. During the Eagles' Super Bowl run in 2017, it's not often credited as such, but the offensive line was the best performing unit on the team. It was an incredibly well-coached, cohesive, and talented group that dominated in the playoffs.

Report: Eagles to interview Buccaneers DC Todd Bowles for vacant HC job

by Jimmy Kempski

In 2020, the Buccaneers had the best run defense in the NFL under Todd Bowles. They were No. 1 in opposing rushing attempts, rushing yards, rushing TDs, and yards per rush. In that sense, his "stop the run first" style of defense is similar to the approach we have seen over the years from Jim Schwartz.
