You'd think Kevin Patullo is an offensive mastermind with how much WIP is trying to defend him.

Maybe Siri is paying them to fluff KP up so they both keep their jobs

Eagles offense broke a playoff record in that Niners game!

4 drops on 3rd down.

(Hard to believe that is a record)

I feel like Josh McCown could be a nice snag if we don’t get an Ex-HC/proven OC (Kingsbury, Monken etc.

Maybe Mike Shanahan at Indiana?

I don’t think McDaniels fits the mold for Philly hires. Especially with him seemingly being high and vaping on sidelines during games.

I'm leaning towards Kingsbury, as his resume fits the Kellen Moore pattern. Maybe he'll be less demanding this time around - although outside of Stoutland, I'm not particularly attached to our offensive staff (that's a Nick problem).

While the defense obviously knows the offense struggled, I bet to a man they feel like they let the team down by not closing out that game. Ojomo himself said the defense needs to learn to close games out better.

Would be nice if either EDGE could close out games. Nolan Smith really let us down this year.

I think the Sirianni smoke is real. The only reason we'd hesitate to move on a veteran OC is if we're moving on from Sirianni, and want to see who the new coach would want in.

I'm cool with him going, too. Everyone could see the problems this offense had, and neither he nor Patullo did a damn thing about it. F what happened to the offensive line - even if those injuries were destined to sink the offense we could have at least looked like we were trying to adjust to it. The fact that our two best years were when Nick was minimized the most with veteran coordinators should say it all.

I don't see much smoke past he has enough power to get his fellow clown another job

Avant did a Baldy type breakdown on this saying AJ was supposed to move inside Goedert before the play and help pick that guy up. I don’t know how to post shares videos they never work for me.

They had an unbalanced line with Calcaterra at tackle lol. How did I not see that

They won't move on from him until there is a 2020 like disaster season. But I could see a hierarchy setup where the new OC is able to call the shots and it is completely his offense from a playcalling and assistant coaches standpoint. This would obviously strip Nick of a lot of power and odds are he wouldn't be okay with it. But that's two out of the last three seasons now where Nick's guy has crapped the bed and the other two seasons where the offense excelled were not internal hires.

I don't think it's out of the question that we see some sort of hierarchy established where Nick becomes more of a "hands-off" CEO type. He can still do his culture shtick, remain the primary liaison to Howie and Lurie, be in charge of training camp, have some player input when it comes to roster construction, be involved in the gameplan the week leading up to games, etc. But when it comes to game day, it mainly falls on Fangio and whoever takes over the offense.

My guess is that Nick had very little to do with the defense this season as Fangio is more than capable of handling that. I think I could see a similar system with the offense for 2026.

The question will be "Well, what's even the point of keeping him then?" and the answer will be that this is ultimately a demotion since firing him would look optically terrible coming off a Super Bowl win. Or it can be presented as he's stronger in an overseer role rather than someone who is directly involved in decision making.

Did they expect 91 to read Jalen, and not crash on Saquon?

The fact that Patullo hasn't been fired yet and the team isn't in the process of scheduling interviews for a new OC is borderline inexcusable. I can only hope it's because Nick is in the process of pulling a Doug and the two sides are about to "mutually part ways."

I don't think that would work because he has to cover Calcaterra who was the tackle on that play

True..

How about Siri and Brown for KM and swapping firsts. Who says no 🤣

And you will have people say this isn't coaching this is the players. But no, this is coaching putting those players on the field to run those plays. If you have players like Calcaterra who can't block then stop putting them on the field to block. That is a full on failure of coaching

This would make sense if Goedert was still a good blocker, but he's been just as bad as everyone else this year, it's actually shocking how much his blocking has fallen off. I can't remember where I first saw this brought up but I do remember Les Bowen retweeting video clips of Goedert whiffing on blocks as Saquon ran behind him, it wasn't pretty.

Offseason Blog is now open.

Will close this soon.

His dad was FedEx so I don’t know what kind of pull that has for NFL coaching spots. Steve Belichick was the prototypical nepo baby.

Why I said kind of. He doesn't have the direct access in the same field most nepo's do. But still, with a billionaire dad, I'm sure he has some type of connections and leg up with other billionaire owners compared to the average coach.

Media tries to paint him as some great vibes guy who is loved by players within the building. But the offense has been miserable with their vibes for two years so how good is he even at that?

I think he is just a nice guy who people don't want to dump on and he is Nick's best friend. There is no reason to keep him around, it's ridiculous that is the way this is starting to trend, even if it is in a different role. If you are a new outside OC coming in, do you really want the last OC hovering around part of your staff, trying to dictate or run the passing game when the passing game concepts were so awful under him? Makes no sense.

The QB doesn't seem to like him. The players in media stick up for all the coaches, it's their culture (which is good, fine). But vibes and friends don't win games.

Coaching agents wouldn't keep it hidden. This is still a desirable job. If there were serious interviews being scheduled, they would put it out there for leverage with other teams.

Yeah, this is no good - unless there's another blocker missing or the QB was supposed to pull it (even then 91 was pretty good committing late to the RB).

I haven't seen an announcement. It should have been done yesterday.
