Eagles: One possible OC hire that would keep the offense elite

The Philadelphia Eagles have a problem on their hands, and it could be fixed pretty easily. They lost both their defensive and offensive coordinators this offseason, and now need to fill those spots.
They could, like a lot of teams do, elevate some guys within the program, and they may very well do that. Or, they could go find some guys who have already done it before.
The offensive coordinator spot is one that I could see them elevating someone into the role, especially considering the offense is Nick Sirianni's and wasn't Shane Steichen's.
So, there will be no installing a new offense. But, just in case they don't end up going that route, there is one guy I think may get looked at for the offensive coordinator role.
The former Arizona Cardinals head coach Kliff Kingsbury could be a guy that the Eagles interview for the position.
Kingsbury may have just been fired from the Cardinals, but his resume is still pretty impressive, especially when you consider who he has worked with.
Kyler Murray isn't better than Jalen Hurts, at all, but, they have similar play styles so that works as well. If there is one thing Hurts needs to get better at, it's passing. That's not me saying he is a bad passer, because he isn't, but he could be better.
Well, Kingsbury has worked with Patrick Mahomes, maybe the most talented passer of all time, so there's that too.
This hire would actually be great for the Eagles. You don't have to have Kingsbury call plays or even install an offense, because we did see how that went, but he can be great for Hurts and Sirianni, as he can bounce ideas about the offense.
This wouldn't be a bad hire at all.
