All has been relatively quiet on the Eagles front as it pertains to their head coaching search. There has been growing talk that Doug Pederson could be the guy for Philly. I don’t know about you guys, but that does absolutely nothing for me -which is exactly why I expect Jeff Lurie to make Pederson the next head coach of the Eagles’ organization.
One team that appears to be making a push to land their “guy” are the Miami Dolphins. They have scheduled a second interview with Adam Gase this weekend. Per Adam Beasley of the Miami Herald, “there is growing momentum in the building for Adam Gase to become the next coach of the Miami Dolphins.”

Adam Schefter confirmed that the Dolphins scheduled the second interview with Gase for Saturday.
Miami has scheduled a 2nd interview with Adam Gase on Saturday, per source. He is only Dolphins candidate to be scheduled for 2nd interview.

The Eagles if you recall interviewed Gase earlier in the week and then there were even rumors that they had scheduled a second interview with Gase, which was not the case. Gase seems to be the 2016 darling that teams searching for head coaches seem to be flocking to.
Jason La Canfora reported earlier in the week that the Dolphins were preparing to make a serious push for Gase.
The Fins will make a strong, strong push for Adam Gase I'm told. Been locked on him for a while. Will try to keep from getting back to PHI

Once Gase is hired by whomever, expect business to pick up for the other head coaching openings.
