Of course we’ll all know what will happen. A long exhaustive search will conclude with some new stooge that was the ball deflator for Tim Brady or something. They will go on and on about how great he is and he will get in his first interview and sound like a complete moron. Half of us will say "don’t judge him” while the other half will see the whole here we go again vibe.
September 30, 20241 yr 1 hour ago, SinCityEaglesFan2 said: #FireSirianni .... ok great - who we gonna hire in his place ? I don't think it will happen, but if in-season then Moore would become interim HC. We went through this "who do we hire? Who's out there?" discussion every time they made a coaching change in the past. But here's your answer: It's Lurie and Howie's job to find a new HC. We're just fans expressing opinions. Fans can have opinions and throw out names but that doesn't matter, we don't have a say. The majority of new head coaches are not re-treads. They are first time HC's who were either a coordinator or position coach. That is the model that has won the majority of Super Bowls. That is even the model Lurie has used since he bought the team, other than hiring Chip from college. We also know what Lurie wants, he's said it himself and proved it with his coaching hires. He wants an offensive minded HC, he wants an explosive offense that scores a lot of points. His first HC hire was a defensive coach, after that all offense. In short, you hire a coordinator ready to make the leap to HC, preferably from a good coaching tree.
September 30, 20241 yr I doubt siriani will get fired during the season unless there is another major collapse and we lose like 10 in a row. Also they won't want to rush into making any decisions and would keep an eye on what some of the other co ordinators do this season.
September 30, 20241 yr Nothing has changed since the collapse. Two new coordinators hasn't fixed anything. He needs to be fired like the Phillies did with JG. Let KM run things and see what happens.
September 30, 20241 yr So how would you do it? Past few years the philosophy on defense is bend and get f****d and now they finally got their hands ond the master of the bend and get f****d philosophy in Fangio...It is difficult to imagine they would get rid of him after just one season. That means if Siri is fired you would hire HC which wouldn't be allowed to bring his own guys even if we get rid of Moore? Well good luck with that...Or we offer the job to Moore to take over with same DC and new OC? That would be....weird

By not getting rid of nick at the end of last season and doubling down on the prevent defensive philosophy they've created a really bizarre situation that ultimately has got us into this mess.
September 30, 20241 yr Regardless of how you feel about Sirianni - and yes, I have been supportive of him, although the Atlanta game really gave me doubts - he´s not getting fired, at least until the team is eliminated from playoff contention. Here´s why: It´s just not in Lurie´s make-up to move so early There´s not enough time to really plan a succession in a strategic way Despite it all they´ve made the playoffs every season The optics of doing this now would look really bad to any future potential coaches because of the point above - really, what are the expectations? Offensive injuries provide cover for the loss to Tampa You can complain all you want, and some of the complaining is obviously justified. But rightly or wrongly, he´s not getting fired just yet.

Offensive injuries provide cover for the loss to Tampa You can complain all you want, and some of the complaining is obviously justified. But rightly or wrongly, he´s not getting fired just yet. the simple reason I believe why it cannot be done during the season, is the mess it would probably created...because if we change HC now and we want to keep coordinators, we have to offer the job to someone within the organization, so the only people that come to mind is Fangio(I don't know if he aims tobe HC again and even if he does I wouldn't offer it to him...if that happens this team is screwed for next years) or Moore...If Moore gets it, will he fix the offense during the season? Because I don't believe that if he is failing so far(at least it looks like it) igame plan wise/play calling, that he will be able to fix offense during the season significantly and if not and lets say we wont make post season or we are one and done then what? Keep him or fire?and what to do with Fangio then?....that is why I think that after season Siri will go and they offer the job to Moore or everyone will be fired
September 30, 20241 yr sirianni should've been fired last offseason & would have been if they hadn't made the super bowl run the prior year. they're 3-8 in their last 11 games & look completely unprepared to play every week.

Where did the other 3 Ls come from or am I missing something?

September 30, 20241 yr I'm out on the leadership of this team, both on and off the field. This team is going nowhere while the two main dummies are here. 1. Fire Siri today. Name Moore interim HC. 2. Cut a couple non-tackling players who focus on making "business decisions" instead of doing their job. Send THAT message to the softies. 3. Quietly find Hurts a new home for next year. Somebody will take the bait. 4. Name a new HC and make sure he has a track record of knowing what he's doing. Maybe it's Moore and maybe it's not. Whoever it is, let HIM decide on his own staff. 5. Position the team for the 2026 draft and get Texas QB Arch Manning. ^^^^^^^^^^^I know that none of this will happen, just had to vent^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

September 30, 20241 yr Just now, Procus said: This is a tough one, and not sure that the first overall pick is available, or that the Eagles have the assets to acquire that pick. It is a very tough one, so this coming off season start moving players of value (including Hurts), and start trading draft picks into the future, just like with Wentz. Stack them up while having a down year in 2025. It's what Indy did to get his uncle Peyton. It's what other teams have done over the years to get the one big difference maker they covet. It's the Eagles' time to do it. I believe it can be done, but it'll be Howie's greatest challenge.
September 30, 20241 yr I don´t watch college football, so have to ask... is Arch Manning that good or are people just falling in love with the bloodline?

September 30, 20241 yr Which part of ¨I don´t watch college football¨ did you miss? It´s a genuine question, I´ve never seen the kid play

September 30, 20241 yr I have no problem with a HC who doesn't call plays. Other teams do it. The HC doesn't call defensive plays and no one ever complains about that. The CEO HC model is supposed to free him up to manage the game and make in-game decisions and adjustments. He has absolutely failed at that. His 4th down decisions, his situational football are severely lacking. He goes with analytics...until he doesn't and goes with his gut to be aggressive. He chooses to be aggressive when he should be conservative and when he should be aggressive he gets hesitant (IMO that rubs off on the players decision making). He is overly emotional and childish and should be the leader of men. He has been an embarrassment taunting other teams and their fans. He should be holding these men accountable and not tolerating some of the nonsense we see. He wasn't ready to be a HC. The NFL plucks coordinators after 1 or 2 seasons and makes them a HC too early. He should be fired as his leadership trickles down and effects the entire team. There are some good things he does, and some players like him and stick up for him. But maybe they like him because he's their cheerleader and emotional support instead of leader. I see him as the #1 problem, and getting a better Head Coach would help address the other problems.

You can bring in Frank Reich tomorrow and things could change a bit. But, you can't change Hurts. This team has the injury bug, penalty bug, and a lack of will to compete.
