Not high on the potential move. But not surprising at all. They wanted to hire Fangio last season and they have a huge obsession with his defense, so makes sense

Did Fangio join the Eagles for one week as a consultant for the Superbowl.

Yes. He was consultant for at least a week or so before Superbowl.

He was going to be the DC last year. But, I think the Gannon-Arizona situation changed things. It makes sense since they went after Desai who runs Fangio defense.

Maybe that is why Desai struggled so much. Fangio is a 3-4 guy.

Eagles ran a 4-3. Does this mean a full switch to a 3-4?

Gannon ran the Fangio defense in Philly as well.

When Desai was DC in Chicago running a 3-4. Philly wasn't necessarily 4-3. They ran more of a multiple front. They ran a lot of 5-2 in base, Reddick was listed as a Rush LB. They had a lot of fronts with 3 DTs

I can see Philly making a full switch to 3-4. Philly has the personnel in the DL and outside LBs to run a 3-4. Reddick, Graham, Sweat, and Nolan Smith can be 3-4 OLBs. They just don't have the inside LBs to run a 3-4.

Good move by the Chargers imho.
