Let Siri stay on but strip him of all power. Since we’ll be hiring an O minded HC next offseason Fangio is already in place longer term. Spend a year buttering up whatever we need to make bringing in Slowik a reality. He’s a young very hot HC candidate. Had five teams interested in him this past offseason even. Just curious... in an alternative universe ( which the rest of us live in) What would have been done differently if the plan is not to fire Siri? What moves on defense would have been different? What moves on offense?

Article didn’t even have any legit news in it to be reported. Lurie called in a favor so Siri doesn’t look so dead in the water to his players. Lurie is the owner... he likes Siri. Siri hired his staff when he came. You could argue 2 guys were Lurie/ Howie guys.... The obvious one with Stout. The other would be the QB's babysitter. The coach had success with " his" guys. Then last year he didn't have his guys. So why doesn't it make sense to allow him to get his coordinators and keep him on? Are you a personal friend of Johnson? He can't get blame either? It's absolutely not possible that Lurie would want a repeat of the formula that won in 2022 with Siri being the head coach but not calling the plays...it's impossible??? It has to be your version...because you are always right?

Now other teams will use it,let's see if we can defend it(be careful when you invent something if you can't stop it, like Ai) TB stopped it and embarrassed us in the process and flustered your boy all day long. I never EVER want to see that AGAIN, EVER!!! Yep the Bucs Dline beats our Oline. Is what it is. Not like our Oline improved this season.
July 23, 20242 yr 4 hours ago, GreenbleedinNC said: Why do we need to butter up anyone before we even see this new offense? Maybe it works and is dynamic? Moore "pre sucks" before 1 snap is taken? If you want greatness,maybe it's already here,but you already quit on this team. You call me a Hurts hater(false) but you already hate Moore when you know ZERO about his coaching skills HERE with THIS team. We know you hate "rosie" the guy that wins GM of the year(apparently they are jealous?) We know you hate Siri. You hate this team more than any fan I have ever seen. I don't make pre judgements,I want to see the good,the bad and the ugly before drawing conclusions before 1 snap has been played. I'm rooting for this team and that INCLUDES Hurts. Reading articles is "nice" but lets face it,even those writers are not in the locker room,they aren't at team meetings,they don't know who slammed a door shut in an office. We won a SB and have been contenders for more since then. Hurts was turned into a JV pancake in TB after we collapsed across the board.I'm excited for what this team can do. We should be competitive once AGAIN. I'm counting on HURTS to lead this team.....to 12 wins. There is no excuse,nor can there be an excuse for not winning 12 games with this schedule. I want to see that Hurts LEARNED from his disgusting play in TB I want to see that he learned.................new plays,to new people he didn't before. I want to see a more open offense with multiple reads,quick decisions and faster delivery,with threats all over the field most teams can only dream of AND one of the top RB's now in our stable. We're going to win 12 games,we have to do it,it's time,no excuses,everyone needs to do their jobs from Hurts down to the gatorade crew. I used to make fun of you for waving pom poms,but now that is for HURTS ONLY and it sucks. I liked the old Ham better that pulled for the TEAM not ONE GUY. We have what we have. You can dream about some fairy tale dream set up with all the best at every position,but the fact remains that is a fairy tale. We have assembled one of the best teams in the league,with young guys that will only get better with time and that is a sustainable situation Howie has gotten for us. I want the new coaches to have a free reign developing all these really nice young players. I totally disagree when you say we are rebuilding,that is BS and I'm not stepping in it. Contenders are not rebuilding,they are retooling for another run at the SB and that is precisely how I view it. Previous draft picks now need to step up,into becoming MEN,taking the reins their mentors gave them. That is an intelligent way to keep your team at the top and we drafted guys that will also take the reins soon if not NOW and I hope that continues. I am excited to see the "new and improved Eagles" with better players,better schemes,coaches with interesting ideas that teach and challenge the players to strive for more. I wish you were too, and stopped defeating this team before it even takes the field. 10 wins is not enough. I don't give a flying eff what "vegas" says.I will stand with my 12 wins and this team is going to get them for me. Rant over You aren’t going to make any judgements before the first snap….but you expect greatness and give no room for error for anything less? Seems to me like you made tons of judgements.
July 23, 20242 yr I’m not the bad guy for wanting quality for our team. Why can’t there be an expectation for us to possess top notch coaching? You have an expectation for results. Bash bash bash QB1 for the playoff ending of our season meltdown. Who made the call that had him playing innate meaningless game last week of the season with an unprepared team that got his finger on throwing hand dislocated? Got AJ and Sidney knocked out of suiting up for the playoffs with injury? These were fire-able offense decisions to me….even if you didn’t consider the whole losing the team aspects.

The other reasoning being Siri is a coach that can’t ask for any real power so he can be Rosie’s puppet. Maybe it’s time we stop holding the team back with this element. Or I’m at least asking to make a hire of a quality enough coach that this power hierarchy could be challenged in the future. Hire Slowik whom will each season be deserving of more and more control over the football team.
July 23, 20242 yr The players were complaining about how predictable and vanilla Siris O was last season. Siri himself labeled that it got stale. I don’t even see where the debate could be with any of this. Stripped him of power. Brought in Moore. If he succeeds…he should takeover the HC mantle.
July 23, 20242 yr Jordan Love won’t practice until he signs new contract. Let’s all hope the Packers screw around as long as possible.

Hire Slowik whom will each season be deserving of more and more control over the football team. So VERY CLEARLY the Lurie/Howie combo ( I love it when you try to give any negative innuendo that it's just Howie... no obvious agenda there) ... very CLEARLY they look at the coach'es idea for coordinators. Very VERY VERY clearly they like the CEO type coach, that manages it all, and they are interested in having good coordinators. So then why do you think they want to bring in an offensive " genius" who would be very hands on with the offense instead of a CEO tyoe head coach that oversees it all.. in a less hands on method? Wouldn't the idea that they got their " puppet: in place...and all they need to do is make sure he has good coordinators? Now you think they want the opposite... the ego of the offensive " genius" who has tunnel vision??? Especially after Chip???? They fired Doug because he wouldn't go outside with getting new assistants... that's CEO type reasons... they didn't fire him because he wasn't an offensive genius. You just described everything why Siri has the job... but now you think it goes the opposite next year? All of a sudden Lurie/Howie change their philosophy????
July 23, 20242 yr If the Eagles make the playoffs this year, then Siri becomes the 6th coach in NFL history to make the playoffs the first 4 seasons of his career. The last coach to do so was John Harbough ..... remind me again... offensive genius? ...oh defensive genius?? Remind me... does he call plays? Hmm... wonder what his job is then? I mean, we can't have that type of coach... obviously that style isn't successful?

Hire Slowik whom will each season be deserving of more and more control over the football team. So look at this post.... You just explained how the Lurie/Howie front office prefers the " hierarchy ... then you suggest the opposite? So you have guests over the house that prefer chocolate ice cream... so you would serve vanilla?
July 23, 20242 yr You want your coach to have more an more power .... why would you think Lurie/ Howie would want that? Especially when you 100 think the Eagles would hire Belicheck except he wants too much power? You don't see the flaw in your logic?

I don’t even see where the debate could be with any of this. Stripped him of power. Brought in Moore. If he succeeds…he should takeover the HC mantle. LOL... so the exact formula of what Lurie/Howie want.... if that works, then you want to change it? Who does Moore bring in as his OC then? You can't grasp the concept that a coach who already didn't call the plays and had success that way... then is forced to take more control of the offense because they don't trust the OC... then he hires an OC he trusts and it works again.... so now they change back? " Siri’s top reasoning to get hired were having Steichen and Gannon in tow" Right... so then Siri brings in another guy and it works again... THE EXACT REASONING WHY LURIE LIKES SIRI ... so then Lurie fires him?
July 23, 20242 yr Your boss tells you that he likes the one thing you do well.... you do it, and so you think he will fire you? For doing exactly what he wants? Exactly what the guy who had your job before you didn't do and was fired for it? I'm not following how this is Lurie's master plan? Lurie's plan? Or even Howie's plan?

Who were the Indy QBS? weren't they former Eagles who can't hold a candle to the current guy? So I don't get why anyone who thinks this current QB is the best ever in team history... so many intangibles... why wouldn't he be able to make this guy better? Constantly spewing how he makes Smith and AJ so good. The logic is never there... too much agenda.

Constantly spewing how he makes Smith and AJ so good. The logic is never there... too much agenda. Moore worked with Herbert,who is a better passer with some injured WR's, so AJ and Smith should be a severe upgrade from what he was used to dealing with. Parker was supposed to be that big body in the slot,but when he abruptly quit we got Paris,then drafted Ainias and Johnny. I suspect Johnny hangs around due to his big body,Paris and Ainias will compete. Paris will start due to experience,but I think by years end it will be apparent Paris won't be back or he becomes a BU. So moving forward with 2 young kids who play different styles should be a boon for Hurts. Excited to see how that plays out.
