Please please fire this FOOL, FO.

 

Let Kellen Moore take over as the HC, Sirianni will only cost the Eagles a crucial win..

 

Sirianni should be getting treatment for his out of control OCD, he is a kid in a 43year old's body, this idiot shouldn't be the coaching any team at any level...

I've been supportive of Sirianni but that was a joke of a 3rd quarter. That game should never have been close and if we had lost it would have been on him 100%

I honestly think he's got some form of autism or ADHD.

The guy always has to make it about him and trying to be smarter than everyone else. Well nick, you're not - you're even more stupid than everyone thinks you are.

Yeah he’s really stupid and everyone knows it. He just isn’t a good in game HC. And that’s despite him not being the play caller. He still finds ways to get involved and mess things up it is unbelievable.

As Chris Long said...he should really do some serious self scouting

For years, we've had coaches that lost games by "trying not to lose" with ultra-conservative decisions. Fans hated it. We finally have a coach that believes in his players and believes in an aggressive philosophy and people are still mad win after win. Many of those aggressive decisions didn't pan out yesterday, but when you call games like that and stay true to the philosophy, you alter the decisions that other teams are making and are usually taking them out of their comfort zones. It doesn't get talked about much. A good example of this was:

 

I will give Sirianni credit for realizing that this team needed to become a run first team especially after some of his players came to him telling him that they needed to change, but the stubbornness to not realize that for whatever reason being aggressive today was constantly backfiring on him was frustrating to watch. The Jags had the Shove well scouted today. Why keep running it? Why continue to walk away from points? Why then kick a 57 yard field goal at one of the more crucial points in the game when your team is only up six, because you kept walking away from easier points earlier? Nick almost lost this game.

Don't worry, this week Lane, Dickerson and Mailata will tell him how to manage games and if he listens to his veterans, he might improve.

That's where we're at with the CEO Head Coach. He makes bad decisions and needs his players to tell him how to coach.

Hurts in his PC said they need to do better situationally, then in follow up said 4th down, and they need to execute better but also manage it better.

Lane talking about things in the media for weeks and he's a respected leader.

They're winning. If they have another collapse, or lose vital games because of Nick...imagine what will be said internally if they're saying this publicly. Nick is a problem.

I don't disagree with your wider point, but there's a time for aggression and a time for taking what's on offer. I have said elsewhere, I've been, and remain, a big Sirianni supporter. However, when you're comfortably ahead, playing well on offense and defense, there's no need to be so gung ho. Take the points on offer, extend your lead, make the opponents chase the game. There's no need to give a sub-par opponent a way into the game by taking unnexessary chances.If you're in a close one against a tough team, I get it, that little edge can make all the difference. Last night, there was little to gain through being reckless.

Simply put.....Sirianni is keeping this team from becoming everything it can be......too much talent to be looking the way they do.

BUT......there is no way they replace him as long as they win games.  The only thing that gets him fired this year, is him costing them a game in the playoffs....and it's going to happen. 

When your 2nd grader tries his best to behave better it's nice, but nobody forgets that he's still a 2nd grader.

There is a time and a place for aggression. When you're destroying an opponent, it's not the time. You piss them off because you're an A-Hole at that point and, in this case, it opened the door for a come back. It was blatant stupidity and could well have cost them the game. He might be a great coach behind the scenes but take him out of the game time decision making because his judgement can't be trusted.

He will thankfully be gone at seasons end. It's a miracle we've won as much as we've had with him as our head coach so kudos to the players for making up for his mistakes and miscalculations.

A team should go for a 2 point conversion when they are losing and chasing points. NOT when they are winning by a couple of scores. WTF is the difference between a 17 - 0 lead versus an 18 - 0 lead?!?!?!   

That Jags game, the Eagles SHOULD have been ahead 27 - 0 going into the 4th quarter. Game over! The Jags were not going to score 4 TDs to win the game, let alone get the necessary 4 possessions to score the 4 TDs. UGGGHHH @ this CEO Head Coach.

There, I said it, enjoy 

Duh. 

No crap 

I went to the game Saturday. It was amusing to listen to fans call for Nick's firing as we were winning our fourth game in a row. I'm not saying that Nick is the answer. But it sure made me laugh.

Would you say that they are winning because of him, or that they are winning despite him?  This is an extremely talented roster.  They were WAY more talented than the Giants, and the Browns.  Beating them wasn't a huge feather in the cap.  The Bengals have talent, but also had a ton of injuries and for whatever reason this year they just aren't a good team.   That was more impressive, but not as impressive as it would have been in other years.  And the win this past week over the Jags isn't very impressive either.   The Jags stink, and the Eagles let them hang around and nearly come back all the way because of the one thing that we can unequivocally point to as being Nick's sole domain... and he got just about every decision to be made there WRONG.  There can be an argument for going for it on 4th and 3 rather than kicking the FG up 10-0.  I disagreed at the time, but there is a case to be made.  The decision to take the XP off the board and go for two from the one yard line when the score was 17-0 already made zero sense.  The difference between 16-0 and 17-0 is HUGE, the difference between 18-0 and 17-0 is almost incalculable.  Then he went for another 4th and 3 or 4 situation turning down an easy FG from Elliott.  That's the equivalent of giving away a TD due to stupid decision making... AND, this team hasn't shown the ability to convert consistently on 4th and 3 in the RZ this year, which DID cost them a game earlier this season against Atlanta.  And his FINAL boneheaded decision of kicking the 57 yard FG when Elliott had been ignored for so long is another pretty dumb decision.  Yes, the 3 points there makes it an 8 point game... but a miss gives the Jags half a field to go for the win.  The other two options were dramatically better than the FG attempt.  Either punt and pin them deep and force them to go the full length of the field to beat you (that did burn them against the Falcons), OR... NOW you get uber aggressive and go for the 4th down conversion to keep control of the ball and seal the game.  

He chose poorly all day long and it nearly cost them.  A bad throw from Lawrence at the end of the game is what saved his bacon.   If Lawrence put a better ball on the RB there... we could be signing a very very different tune this week.

Honestly, I'm very tired of this hate towards Sirianni. He has made some bad decisions, but everyone's judging in hindsight. This last game, there were 2 pretty bad decisions IMO: going for it on 4th down when you're ahead 16-0; and that stupid play where they failed to convert because they didn't try the shove with inches to go. Going for 2 from the 1-yard line is pretty much the standard nowadays; most teams will do it and that's what analytics recommend. They failed, but it was the right decision. Trying a 57-yard FG with an All-Pro kicker should also be expected.

Overall, he's much preferable compared to other coaches who will never go for it on 4th down or kick a FG down by 20. He isn't perfect, but he has tons of positives that have led to one of the best records in the NFL since he came here (and in franchise history).

This - plus the team has a solid assistant coaching squad.
