Mike Groh’s biggest strength may actually be his biggest weakness

If we roll back the clocks to 2017, it was a much simpler time. Nelson Agholor recorded a career-high 768 yards and 8 touchdowns, shedding the skin of a struggling receiver and emerging as a confident slot superhero. The man who many attributed a lot of Agholor’s success to, WR Coach Mike Groh, was promoted to offensive coordinator.

Groh’s reputation only grew during his time as the Eagles’ WR coach, as he further pushed the development of Alshon Jeffery along and helped Agholor to climb out of his shell. His promotion made sense, with fans rightly encouraged by the growth of a previously unstable receiver room.
