2.  So what?!?  Why penalize him because his division sucked?!?  He has surpassed the remainder of the league when he won the Super Bowl.

So a losing season outweighs a Super Bowl?

No it doesn't. And if you told me he'd get us a SB and then bomb, I'd take it all day. I just don't see where he made the team any better. He got the SB and then continually made questionable decisions and his players regressed. Sidney Jones is a prime example, he played much better after leaving. How much influence he had on all of that and everything is admittedly above my football IQ. But I question whether he just "lucked" into that SB by Wentz and Foles having out of body QB experiences or if it's because of how well he coached

(emphasis added)

I can't guarantee a Super Bowl with Pederson.  I couldn't guarantee a Super Bowl with anyone.

But I defy you to look at the challenges this team faces and identify an available coach more openly qualified than Pederson.

Pederson has won at the NFL level as a head coach.

Has Meyer?

Has Bienemy?

Has Smith?

Pederson has a proven track record of developing QBs. at the NFL level.

Has  Meyer?

Has Bienemy?

Has Smith?

Are there some squestions about Pederson?  Perhaps.

Are the questions you have for Pederson seriously more daunting or troubling than they are for any of the other candidates?

It would be shocking.

I don't see him wanting to return here, and I wouldn't see him as a popular choice here.
