xxeaglesfanxx Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Honestly if they ran it back I wouldn’t be surprised. They’ve shown the ability to be stubborn all the way up the chain. If that happens I’m out next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bpac55 Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 I think it's important that the Eagles make their coaching decisions ASAP. They can't sit on their hands. Far too many great candidates out there to waste another year with Sirianni. You have to wonder how fast they will be to pull the cord on BJ. If his interview with the Panthers is legit, they aren't going to fire him as they would lose out on 2 3rd round picks. However, if thew know it's truly a Rooney Rule interview he's gone today.

xxeaglesfanxx Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 It’s probably a bit early but based on who’s likely to leave do we know how many extra picks they might get? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aptosbird Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Yup, the replacement has to be identified first if the Eagles are going with the HC change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wussbasket Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 It doesn't seem Siri has lost the faith of the locker room with Reddick publicly defending him, and I feel I've heard other comments from players that indicated there is still support for him. My thoughts are the issues with the defense are mainly on Howie. You could have brought Jim Johnson back to lead this defense and they would still lose like this. Relying on Dean and Blankenship didn't work out for the back 7. Dean had 2 IR stints, and Blankenship was constantly injured. Did they ever have the same back 7 grouping 2 weeks in a row? There were too many injuries to overcome. Defense was just horribly managed with the changing of coordinators in the middle of the season and the roster construction was equally bad. It's like Howie was trying to see what is the lowest amount of talent you can have in the back 7 and still be average. Now the offense, even though statistically top 10, it was just not great this year. The team almost never got into a rhythm, felt like we barely ever saw them get in the hurry up outside of 2 min offense. This is supposedly Siri's offense, why does it look so much different than last year? How much say does Brian Johnson have in the weekly planning? How much of it is Hurts that is limiting the offense that is called? My thought is that if the FO wants to stay with Siris offense, which I think they will, he needs to bring in a OC that has previous HC experience and has called plays before. But what the hell is the point of Siri if you need to bring in someone else to run the offense and defense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the Eagles to receive comp picks for a minority coach getting hired, he has to be on their active coaching staff. If they fire Brian Johnson, he's just an available coach.

I suspect it's at least a week before we hear anything at all. They've got to have their post season debriefing with Nick and his staff first.

No way anyone watched that game last night and thought "that’s my head coach”. Maybe water boy but not head coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what the hell is the point of Siri if you need to bring in someone else to run the offense and defense. I can point to Harbaugh and Tomlin as successful coaches that don't run either side of the team. Both will probably go to Canton, with each having a SB championship. Yet, they only have three SB appearances in 30+ years of coaching combined. They have suffered through suspect OCs and mediocre seasons. They stick around because players like playing for them 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manz2821 Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 I mean it's hard to comprehend how a team which was 10-1 with the best record in the NFL literally became the worst team in the NFL. For context last week the bucs scored 9 points against the panthers. Heads have to roll. We need to literally get rid of everyone bar Stout and a few players. This was beyond embarrassing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
