Head Coach

Eagles Career: 1976-82 | Eagles Hall of Fame Induction: 1994 | Pro Football Hall of Fame Inductee: 2022

The Eagles head coach from 1976-82, Vermeil will long be remembered as a workaholic, a perfectionist, and as a winner. A success at every level of coaching, from his first high school head coaching job in 1960, to a stint at UCLA in 1974-75 and with the Eagles, Vermeil attacked his profession with a degree of passion rarely seen. A native of Calistoga, CA, Vermeil coached the Eagles into the playoffs four consecutive times from 1978-81, including a trip to Super Bowl XV as NFC Champions in January of 1981.
