Here comes former Eagles head coach Doug Pederson and the Jaguars at 2-1 -- not bad considering they had a league-low four wins combined the past two seasons -- walking into what should be a happy homecoming for the 54-year-old coach.
Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Doug Pederson looks on during a game against the Indianapolis Colts at TIAA Bank Field on September 18, 2022 in Jacksonville, Florida. Years passed in Philadelphia with sports fans around the globe howling, how could the city erect a statue of Rocky Balboa but not one for real boxing Hall of Famer and famous resident Joe Frazier?
Why is a statue of Pederson and QB Nick Foles commemorating the most famous play in team history — and on the short list of great ones in Super Bowl lore — wedged in between gates in a hard-to-find spot across the street from Lincoln Financial Field? Because again, the 9-foot tall bronze statue that honored the trick play that won the Eagles their only Super Bowl was donated by a beer company and not bestowed from the franchise.
Now here comes Pederson and the Jaguars at 2-1 -- not bad considering they had a league-low four wins combined the past two seasons -- and walking into what should be a happy homecoming for the 54-year-old coach."Hopefully something in that realm," Pederson said. "But look, it’s Philly. Anything’s possible, right, with these fans? I’m just looking forward to running out of that tunnel with the Jaguars and getting ready to play a game there.
"Everything that you’re seeing now is everything that we saw in him when we drafted him," Pederson said. "You’re seeing the growth, not only in the quarterback, but also in the team. Some of the pieces around him. He’s going to defy all odds. That’s just the way his career has been built." The third-year pro notched a 50-yard scoring run at the Los Angeles Chargers a week after logging a 37-yarder against Indianapolis.Really good considering Robinson tore his left Achilles tendon in December. Those long TD runs, as well as his 230 yards on the ground, should be enough to prove he's fully recovered from the injury.KOBE-TIGER CONNECTION
