Former Eagles coach stakes his future on a rival's failed former first-round pick
Shane Steichen needs to win now in Indianapolis, and he's staked his future on Daniel Jones having success as the Colts' starting quarterback Who's interested in some Shane Steichen news? There's no hard feelings towards those of you who aren't. It's completely understandable. His stint with the Philadelphia Eagles feels like it was ten years ago, but it wasn't. Shortly after the final seconds trickled away in Super Bowl 57, his and Jonathan Gannon's time in the City of Brotherly Love was over. Both accepted jobs as head coaches for other franchises. Gannon didn't have to leave Glendale, as he took over for the Arizona Cardinals. Steichen, like Frank Reich before him, accepted the Indianapolis Colts' job after an Eagles Super Bowl appearance. Fast forward to the present, and both are sitting in seats that are much hotter than they were upon the arrival of both men. To succeed in the NFL, every head coach must find his franchise quarterback. Gannon has hitched his wagon to Kyler Murray, and while that isn't great, he's in much better shape than Steichen. You won't believe who the latter is rolling with. A former Eagles head coach ties his coaching future to a failed Giants quarterback. Things didn't work out very well for Daniel Jones with the New York Giants. Jones was the sixth player taken in the 2019 NFL Draft, and while that seems like a reach now, there weren't many better options. The alternatives were Drew Lock, Will Grier, Ryan Finley, and Jarrett Stidham. Then again, Gardner Mishew was in that draft, but he wasn't taken until Round 6. Philadelphia passed on him to take Clayton Thorson 11 spots earlier. You can't make this stuff up. Anyway, let's get back to the Steichen and Jones arrangement. The former is probably in a prove-it, win-or-go-home situation. The latter ended a six-year run in the Big Apple with a record well below .500. Sixty-nine starts produced a 24-44-1 win-loss total. By naming Jones as his starter for the coming season, it can also be argued that the Colts seem content to close the door on the Anthony Richardson era. Time will tell. Anything can happen, but all of that has been said to say the following. As well-run as the Eagles are, they look even better each time you look at how teams like the Colts, Cardinals, and Giants are being managed.

NFL analyst sees 'a massive gap' between Rams led by Matthew Stafford vs. Jimmy Garoppolo
The Los Angeles Rams will need to decide sooner rather than later who their starting quarterback will be in Week 1. If he's fully healthy, Matthew Stafford will be under center. But he's been dealing with a back injury this summer and, despite returning to practice, is a huge question mark heading into the season. The other option is backup Jimmy Garoppolo, who has ample NFL experience but has devolved into more of a journey player who can start in a pinch. Both could still lead the Rams to the playoffs, according to ESPN's Dan Orlovsky, but the difference between Stafford and Garoppolo under center could be the deciding factor of whether L.A. is a contending team in the NFC. He told NFL analyst Warren Sharp recently that there is "a massive gap" between the Rams' offense with Stafford versus with Garoppolo calling the shots. "This is a team that with Stafford can win the Super Bowl," Orlovsky said. "With Jimmy Garoppolo, I think he can keep them afloat — a playoff-contending football team — but by no means are we talking about a team that legitimately threatens and challenges Philadelphia for the NFC Championship." This sentiment is why the Rams pushed to keep Stafford in 2025 despite his age and cost. He is simply the best quarterback for this team, as evidenced by how well the team plays with him under center versus any other player. Garoppolo, again, has good enough experience and skills to maintain continuity on offense. But his ability stunts the Rams' potential in 2025. It looks as though Stafford will be ready to roll for Week 1. But if his back injury flares up, L.A. may need to call upon their backup to start at some point in 2025.

Rob Gronkowski likes idea of signing one-day contract with Patriots
Legendary tight end Rob Gronkowski is open to the idea of signing a one-day contract to retire as a member of the New England Patriots. Gronkowski was in Boston for the grand opening of "Gronk Playground." Susan Hurley helps Gronkowski run his charities and is the founder of CharityTeams. She is currently fighting Stage IV cancer and has pushed for the tight end to retire with the Patriots. Gronkowski admitted that he liked that idea "a lot" when speaking with media members. "I like that a lot. The reason why we're really going to do that is because of Susan Hurley. She wants to see that happen. She's been dreaming about that happening for a while," Gronkowski said. "RKK [Robert Kraft] gave her the thumbs up, so we're going to make it happen in the future. It's going to be a special moment. Come back for a day, a weekend, whatever it is. We'll make it happen." Gronkowski is often recognized as the greatest tight end of all time. He finished his career with four Super Bowl wins and four First-Team All-Pro nods after posting 621 receptions for 9,286 yards and 92 touchdowns. A major ceremony only makes sense for a player who made an impact the way that Gronkowski did in New England. He is one of the organization's all-time greats. Despite finishing his career helping Tom Brady win a championship in Tampa Bay, Gronkowski will always be a Patriot. Follow Patriots Wire on Twitter and Facebook.
