Or you get the, oh man, your offensive coordinator is going from being on the sideline to being in the booth.

And we've got to ask questions like, I wonder why that is, right?

So those are all the ways in which you can go sideways.

I do think for me being a generally pessimistic person,

I want to try to walk that back a little bit and really focus on all the ways that it can work because I do think that there's a genuine upshot.

And if it does go perfectly, this is also a guy that you might be able to keep for two seasons, which I think is the best move.

You win.

Sean Manning is great, but he's also very young and early in his coaching career.

You might get a year two, a year three with him as your offensive coordinator if you're successful enough to be able to hold this band together.

It does.

It does bring up a curious point to me.

I think that you pointed this out.

I know I've heard it from our buddies that cover the Eagles elsewhere.

Nick Sirianni kind of has a little bit of a thing of like all those offensive masterminds with all their complicated play calls.

But every time they play against me, they lose.

And you guys say that all we do is the most basic things in the world.

I just wonder what that dynamic is like.

Maybe this is one of those situations where Howie Roseman and Jeffrey Lurie have a lot of admiration for the way that things are done off of that coaching tree.

And maybe you're dealing with the head coach who might not be as embracing of it.

And again, we're right back to all these potential friction points where things might go sideways.
