With the end of the season vacancies I keep searching to see if John’s name pops up. It looks as if the Minnesota disaster has killed his “sure-thing” status as one of the next hit head coaches.

Does anyone have any news on his opportunities ? I don’t even see his name coming up for OC interviews . Maybe after the Head coaches are hired he may get a look again as OC.

Kirk Cousins strikes again.

DeFilippo is in the process of being hired by the Jaguars as OC.

Thanks for the update. Jags need to draft a QB. He did good things with a young Carson Wentz.

Looks like it is a done deal according to Jags fan site.

Now he just needs a QB.

That's probably what helped him land this job. They have already stated that they are in the market for a qb, and that seems to be John's greatest asset (working with qb's).

He was (surprisingly) let go by Jacksonville today. Wouldn't be surprised if he went back to Philadelphia.

Hired by the Bears to be a QB coach. Good that he landed quickly, but not so good that it's going backwards. Bears coach was QB for Delaware the same time DeFilippo was at JMU.

Of course most people on this board have never heard of Jerry Lee Lewis.

Then there are old folks like me, who have seen the Jerry Lee perform in one of those dive night clubs in Waldorf MD, back in the day.

Wow! Did they have a hitching post outside to tie your horse to?

Too funny! Actually I think I was driving a Datsun wagon. Of course most people on this board have no idea what that is/was.

Dodge Dart "Swinger" with the slant 6 engine in High School, followed by Firebird Formula which I sported at JMU.

I too drive the Dodge Dart in HS. Great car!

My first car that I could occasionally borrow was Mom's 1975 Dart. Sadly, it was 4 door w/ an anemic ( but bullet proof) 6 cylinder engine. Was definitely not a chick magnet car.

Anyone know what the latest evaluation of DeFelippo's stock is at this point? I'm assuming it has been devalued this past year but I could be wrong. Offensively they are near the bottom of the league for overall offense with Trubisky / Foles hovering around a 70 quarterback rating (which is his direct responsibility). Maybe the consensus is that the team did not have the tools in place, but I'm assuming his resume takes a hit regardless.

I was excited as his star was rising and interviewing for head coaching jobs before the Minnesota disaster. I was hoping he could turn it around. I don't think this year accomplished that but maybe I'll be surprised.

I don't think he helped his stock, but maybe he gets some credit for Mitch's late season run of form? The issues for the Bears' offense were a result of poor playcalling, which he had no control over.
