Doug Pederson | Coaching Tendencies
From 2013-2019 Pederson has been Offensive Coordinator and Head Coach
• OC: Chiefs (2013-2015)
• HC: Eagles (2016-current)
Why is he labeled as a “RBBC” coach?

Why is he labeled as a “RBBC” coach?
In his 7 seasons with NFL play calling experience — Pederson has had
• 3 RBs have 70+ carries in a season 3 times
• 2 RBs have 100+ carries in a season 3 *seperate* times
That’s 6/7 (86%) seasons Pederson has utilized multiple RBs. But did he have a choice?

2013-2015: OC, Chiefs
Pederson was fortunate enough to have Jamaal Charles.

Knile Davis averaged 115.50 touches a season as the backup

2016-2019: HC, Eagles
Pederson had to utilize multiple RBs a season, can you blame him?
• Ryan Matthews, LeGarrette Blount, Darren Sproles, Wendell Smallwood, Corey Clement, Jay Ajayi, & Josh Adams
Any worthy of 200 let alone 250+ touches?

Eagles RB: Fantasy Production
• Highest Fantasy RB = Darren Sproles (162.5 PPR, RB24) in 2016, benefiting from 52 receptions
Miles Sanders had 218.7 Fantasy points and 229 touches in 2019 but benefited from Howard missing the final 7 games.

Jordan Howard was acquired before the 2019 NFL Draft for a late round pick & on a contract year — a one year rental.
• Eagles selected Miles Sanders 53rd overall
Was this part of the plan for a playoff caliber team? Run down Howard & let their rookie acclimate to the NFL?

What is more likely:
1) Utilizing Sanders like Charles & Scott like Davis with sprinkling Clement a few carries
2) Bring in a veteran and letting the superior talent waste away
I am not sold that Pederson is a RBBC type of coach — he has had no choice but to be in Philadelphia.
