The 2015 campaign was a drama-filled mess of a season for the Philadelphia Eagles. Chip Kelly remolded the team in his image, traded away key contributors who dared challenge his authority and promptly steered the franchise right into a ditch.
Last year's 6-10 fiasco led the Eagles to in turn ditch Kelly, replacing the bombastic head coach with the much more reserved and no-nonsense Doug Pederson.
Pederson was supposed to bring a return to normalcy, to bring back the days when the Eagles made headlines for their actions on the field and not the sideshow off of it.
