New coach, new quarterback. It is time for the Eagles to rebuild the ship that Chip Kelly left sinking, and with offensive minded Doug Pederson at the helm, Paxton Lynch is the only way to go. Playing in the AAC, Lynch didn’t face the competition or get the spotlight other top quarterbacks received, but that shouldn’t take anything away from Lynch, who in time, can become a top tier quarterback in the league.
