Only took 13 weeks. And the offense will look the same.

That's why he waited so long. It's his offense anyway, he probably waited til the end of the season so he can say we were too far along for him to fix it and he was giving patullo the chance to fix it after the bye

Or, Sirianni recognizes that his input isn't necessary going to help. He's the guy that backed out of play calling in his rookie year, to his credit, and handed it over to Steichen. He hasn't done it since... and the year he was more involved again, 2023, wasn't a good showing.

This is a desperation type move... like slapping Flex Tape on the Titanic. Even Phil Swift thinks its crazy!

I will wait and see what monday night looks like before i conclude much

If things get worse, this will be interesting.

It would be hilarious if things actually got worse, because 1) that would mean patullo runs sirianni's idiot offense better than sirianni, and 2) it's crazy that this offense could be any worse after the last 4 games

We always can hope for the best, but based on the evidence we have from his history... the outlook isn't good. But, he might have learned some things over the past 4 years. We can hope.

If they do finally break through, it'll be great but it's gonna be exhausting to see him and hurts come out and say "is that what y'all wanted to see?" like they haven't been playing like complete crap all year

I wonder who the Eagles will bring in as OC in 2026. Right now I would say the favorite is Daboll. But I wouldn't rule out Mike McCarthy either.

So...this game is the real test?

Another distraction they have to get questioned about from the media!

Siri’s new role in the offense

We're either gonna get blown out, or blow them out with our best game of season.

I don't even know what to expect anymore though.

At least he has found something to do.

Indiana just ran the Eagles' play on 4th down

Expect disappointment... and if you get anything else, you can be happy about it.

The line would move to -3 or beyond if it's announced he's inactive. Closer to a pick em or +1 at most if he's announced active.

It's back up to -2.5. Opened at that. Went to -1.5, Back at -2.5. Eagles.

I don't think he is playing. He will be limited to shotgun only and even though they likely want to run a bunch, he needs both hands on every handoff. With a big glove and brace(?) on it. Seems foolish.

I don't think he is playing. Guess we will see.

All the good vibe talk is a bit concerning. It's an always-present landmark on the road to collapse. Just past this on the horizon is the players only meeting and then beyond that is the vote of confidence in coach and QB.

That line worked on my wife, so you never know! 🤣

They force feed it to their star tailback for no gain?

The one thing people said he was good at was vibes. Well... when things were going poorly in 2023 and now this year, the vibes are bad. I need more than a Chief Vibes Officer as HC. This is what I ask the Sirianni fans. If he got fired, who would hire him? You see coaches like Dan Quinn go back and rebuild there resume as a coordinator. Would anybody hire Sirianni as an OC? I don't think so. So we have a HC who is only successful when given tons of talent by Howie, and when he has both an exceptional OC and DC. Any coach in the NFL can succeed in that environment.

It's funny how Philadelphia Fans use the same arguments to bash Sirianni that they are absolutely livid about the media using to bash Jalen Hurts.

I really don't like fans of our team, because Eagles fans are so narrative heavy:

• If they like you, NOTHING is your fault.

• If they dislike you, EVERYTHING is your fault.

And they'll use the exact same reasoning as blame or absolving of blame depending on how they feel. My sincere impression is after 2023, the city will never like Sirianni unless he becomes Kyle Shanahan schematically, and the way Hurts has been healthy he'll pretty much never get a chance to show that they're just an awful matchup for each other from a schematic perspective. The vast majority of other coaches would have let Jalen sink in his offense based on ego and just drafted another QB, Sirianni let someone else handle it. Everyone uses that to assert he's the worst schematic coach in the history of the game, even though they've only ever seen him work with 1 QB, it's exhausting.

Part of me wishes we fire Sirianni at this point not because I think he's a bad coach, but just so the fanbase will shut the F up and stop with the 2023 PTSD. It has been by far the least enjoyable period to talk about Eagles football, despite winning a Super Bowl throughout the period. I never thought I'd see the fanbase so spoiled before we won the SB for the first time.

I just want to point out that a lot of times, one of the biggest jumps for QBs is from Year 1 to Year 2. Part of that is that things they were unsure how to prepare for in year 1, when their heads are swimming with information, they get a chance to prepare better for in year 2, especially during second year offseason.

For some reason, Eagles fans don't think this would also apply to first time coordinators, and if they don't have everything prepared and looking like Ben Johnson by game 9, they're trash, incapable of learning, incapable of growth, and will never get better no matter how many years they are in the league. Isn't that weird?

Personally, after watching this season, I believe that if Brian Johnson got a second year with our offense, it would have been notably better. However, because the result of Kellen Moore was a Super Bowl (largely due to the defense carrying the team for the majority of the year, the result of which is the exact opposite of what happened to Brian Johnson), the result is inarguable, and so it'll never be discussed from a serious standpoint.

The funniest part is we have one of the best examples of a coach improving over time in our history, that being Andy Reid and watching him win multiple Super Bowls with the Chiefs, and people still consider it impossible.

Just me speaking but I hate quotes like that in situations like this. Barkley says practices are great but game day sucks. Davis is saying practices need new energy. Someone puts up a random good vibes bunny blowup. Seems like everyone just searching for something.

That looked like a lot of throws to Smith and Goedert... 🤔. They were on pace for career years... before AJ's first cryptic tweet came out. Since then, their numbers have fallen off, and Brown's have gone up more. And the offense has looked disjointed and discombobulated.
