the announcement was just made fired by the philadelphia eagles before the end of the season after just two years. ajoining us on the phone is our sports director. chip kelly. what do you think of the selection? >> this is a really, really, really bold move bit 49ers. it is either going do work and be fantastic or it will be a disaster because chip commercially a polarizing guy. it send as last messages. the first message that jumps at me is that owner york is taking back his team and say i am running this because his football philosophies are the opposite of what trent would like as far as controlling the bomb. he is brillant offensive mind. the question, if you do not get along with jim harbaugh how do you get along with chip kelly? neither sufficients any fools and twinge be different for the 49ers, a different offense. what you have to wonder, does this bring kaepernick back to the fold as a potential 49ers quarterback? i had an interesting conversation with a member of the 49ers' front off who i ran into and he said does he have anything left? i said, you know what be i would love

action news" reporter trish hartman has more. >> some eagles' fans came to watch the final game of the season at chickie's & pete's south philadelphia and others. >> came her to sell my jersey. >> in all seriousness the loyal fans could not help but speculate who will take eagles chip kelly. >> i want someone dynamic not afraided to talk to the owner. >> interim head coach and coordinator pat shurmur coached final game after kelly was let go running back coach and long time favorite staley was interviewed to the delight of some and chagrin of others. >> i believe they should stay inside the organization and get duce and let him deal with them he knows those players and some of those players played against him. >> he's a good running back coach: >> and that's it. >> yeah. >> well many fans say they want a fresh start to the team they want someone familiar with philadelphia. we talked to a couple people who think would be carolina panthers defensive coordinator shawn mcdermott who started here in philly. >> philadelphia roots knows the philadelphia organization an defensive coordinator which is what they require right now. >> another

organizationings, the grown bay packers are the kansas city chiefs and being a part of the philadelphia eagles and understanding what that takes and that dynamic to win in the national football league has prepared me for this opportuni opportunity. >> now the eagles aren't done hiring after pederson they're also in the market for a player personnel director. we'll have that story for you later in sports. >> okay. >> bring it. all right, buddy see you then. >> the fans are weighing in about pederson on cbsphilly.com. 24% of fans say they are very optimistic doug pederson will succeed as eagles head coach. 40% are somewhat optimistic. 36% are not at all optimistic. cbsphilly.com let us know what you think. >>> we're hearing tonight from a woman who survived a frightening a tack at a west philadelphia septa station. lauren, suffered a broken clavicle and other injuries. on sunday she was pushed off the platform on to the el track at 40th street station allegedly by suspect kenneth grimes. moment later he allegedly pull a knife and threatened her with her life. he then fled and she managed to get

>> so there is a compelling indication that doug peterson is in fact the next coach for the philadelphia eagles apparently he is reaching out to people to be part of his staff. the eagles said we have concluded our search for a head coach and no further interviews are necessary. we are told that doug peterson was reaching out to people to be part of his staff. nfl rules says you cannot hire a coach while he is in the playoffs, kansas city faces new england saturday in the playoffs. peterson is a former eagles quarterback and was here for four seasons under andy reid as the quarterback coach. >> keep in mind what the philadelphia eagles are looking for here, an offensive minded coach someone that they can build their organization around ideally, someone that is connected to andy reid and know what's it is like to work and play in philadelphia and doug peterson fits all the criteria, doug peterson is one of those guys he played for don shula. he lived in south jersey and there are a lot of boxes to check for doug peterson. >> earlier today tom coughlin withdrew his name for the job and that may h

life-long eagles fan. philadelphia, the greatest sports fan, certainly in the united states of america. and i put us up impens any other city around the world in terms of fan base, fan knowledge, fan enthusiasm and passion for our teams, for our players and for winning. you know, i was at the redskins game. it was sad. and you know, i've gotten to know many of the players who want to do good jobs, want to perform well out on the field, want to win for our fans and themselves. it was all clear to me after that game that jeff was probably going to have to make a pretty serious decision. the timing, i think, certainly caught many of us off guard. it was the right decision by jeff and folks at the philadelphia eagles. this is a proud franchise. this is one of the originals. i watched them when he this were back at franklin field. again, growing up a football fan. so, the team deserves to have great leadership. the town deserves to have a great team. we need to put ourselves in position finally to win a super bowl and i'm c

look like celek will end his career as a philadelphia eagle. we spoke with him first time after signing the deal today. what did he say? that's next in sports. winter is hard on your nose. from first sniffles to endless runny noses. puffs plus lotion is soft. they help soothe irritation by locking in moisture better so you can face winter happily. a nose in need deserves puffs indeed. and try puffs softpack today. >> eagles clearly have a lot of cash to bring out. they definitely know who they want to stay. zach ertz, they lock in, guy who has been here probably the longest out of any guy in philadelphia, in any sport, tight end brent celek. celek has been an eagles his whole career, nine years, drafted by the eagles in 27th in the fifth round, veteran, lockerroom, respected by all, and now, today he talks about his three year, $13 million deal. >> this is one of the greatest days of my life. to be able to say i'm going to be a philadelphia eagle for life is a dream come true. and when i figured it out, i couldn't sleep. i was so excited i prob

will introduce 69 year-old tom coughlin and it is possibly could be the next head coach of the philadelphia eagles. former giants head coach was interviewed by eagles brass on monday, i spoke with eagles reporter elliott sure-parks of nj.com who believes the the eagles wanted to go in a different direction. >> certainly feels like a panic move. you fired chip a week early to get a jump start on candidates. you interview adam gase. it seemed like that was their target. coughlin is essentially forced out of the giants job. he hasn't won a playoff game in four years or even made the playoffs. maybe this is just how important it is for eagles to rebuild their culture but in terms of x's and o's it is hard to feel like hiring of the tom coughlin is a step in the right direction. >> so coughlin's age is a major concern but does bring a wealth of experience in the nfl it is important. but no one has won a super bowl over the age of 65. can you guess who the the oldest to win. >> one guess. >> he is most recent one. >> he is the most recent one. seventy when the season begins. that is old in nfl years. >>

he has to learn from the mistakes he made with the philadelphia eagles. not being so as kiet do reported so micro-managing to every player, running the team like he did at oregon. these aren't college players anymore, these are grown men. these are professional athletes. he has to take a step back and recognize that for what it is. and not -- and not be so -- for example, last year, when players would come in after practices, there were cuffs in there because he wanted a urine sample from everybody. there were cups in there. he changed everybody's diet. it's just the -- the -- just the little things, frank, like monitoring the sleep patterns of every player on the team. you just can't do that. you have to treat these guys as professionals. >> well, hopefully, he learned a lot in philly because he is coming to san francisco. vern glenn on the telephone for us. vern, thanks very much for your insight. >> you got it, frank. >>> in san francisco, city leaders met this morning to talk about super bowl street closures. major gridlock is expected the week of the

their passion to win, their passion for the philadelphia eagles. that wears his emotions on his sleeve. it's very, very important that the eagles organization gets this right. >> if you got the best name it's got an entire section of seats in pool side cab ban floridas, oh tomorrow's bowl promises to be a load of fun for penn state and their fans. at their final practice a sight that may make you a bit nervous but no worries, nobody was injured. this just happens to be the nittany lions tradition of carrying the players off the field after the last practice. >> just a goofy way to honor the seniors and those seniors really deserve it. obviously those guys stuck around when all the sanctions came out and they're all great guys and they really deserve that. >> irving meyer looking a bit stressed. notre dame pulled within seven of the buckeyes. elliott ran away with this one and the game. he had 149 yards rushing on 27 carries and four rushing touchdowns. that tied a fiesta bowl record. ohio state beat. >>> the winter classic bruins hosting the canadi

the philadelphia eagles were 10-for the first two sos but 6-9 when he was let go. former 49ers young said he still things kelly can succeed with the 49ers. >> he will be successful. in the long term. you look at coughlin and shanahan, and belichick, and they struggled and fixed what was wrong. >> his offense is a perfect fit for quarterback kaepernick so could this be another chance for him? many thought kaepernick would be traded or released on the off season and now he could try to resurrect his career. >> can you imagine, the worst powerball prank a nurse's son called her to tell her that she had when and it was a badject. >> this happen in california, the woman worked at a nursing home spending her life giving back to people and the entire center was so excited their co-worker won and now owner of the nursing home doesn't think this is so funny. >> if this was a prank done by her son and the claim...it is somewhat...detestable. i will give him the benefit of doubt in wanting to make his mom happy. >> that is the kind of boss you want because he plans to give th

. >> i'd like to welcome back doug pederson and introduce him as the next head coach of the philadelphia eagles. doug? >> reporter: doug pederson is last man standing, owner jeffery lurie said eagles had a list of 25 candidates, they have narrowed it down to ten and pederson ultimately got the call. >> i will tell you at the end of the search this was a easy call. >> reporter: just eight years ago pederson was coaching high cool will football will but he spent 19 years in the nfl as a player and coach which has prepared him for this moment. >> to the people that i have been surrounded with in my career, the don shulas, mike holmgren, andy reid, being a part of the championship organizations, green bay packers, kansas city chiefs and being part of the philadelphia eagles has prepared me for this opportunity. >> reporter: when chip kelly was fired lurie said he wanted a coach with emotional intelligence. pederson's personality and connection with players was a huge factor in whether he got this job. >> you have to be comfortable in your own skin in order to be able to reach out, be genuine with t
