Siri takes ownership stating he is designing plays with Johnson.  So he needs to get on him about the situational play calling.  My guess is, he relied on Steichen for that last year and he needs to focus more on the play calling during games.

Siri should get on himself about some of the situational play calling since he is making some of those calls and decisions is what I'm getting at.

Is Brian Johnson your dad or something?

No he's my mom. Getting tired of people looking for folks to bash on a 9-1 team. The offensive calls are shared among 3 people. 11 are expected to execute. The person with the most weight on the offense is Siri. The HC. The play designer, co game planner, and situational play caller. The year 1 OC is JAG. Goes deeper than just hey the OC sucks. That's lazy.

I agree.  They game plan together, design plays together and then BJ calls the plays.  Siri and BJ need to both make the adjustments needed.

It's odd though with the 2 coordinator setup.  People always blame solely the DC on defense and never the head coach, but on offense it's the OC and the HC.  The HC oversees everything, so anything that goes wrong it's his job to work with his staff to correct.

However, it's obvious the combo of Steichen worked well last year and this year the dropoff is noticeable.

Depends on whether or not the HC has a defensive or offensive mind. Belicheat for example is like the Andy Reid HC of defenses. Mike Tomlin did the same for years.

Exactly!!!!!! But they're not going to throw the OC into the deep end in year 1. Not going to happen.

And that's understandable.  And I know it may seem like nitpicking a 9-1 team, but there have been several close games where we would have blown the other team out with competent play calling.  So while I'm glad they're finding ways to win, I don't want them to end up on the losing side of a close game in January/February. 

Where's Brian Johnson's dad to tell me how he's not the problem with this offense?

Dude should be fired into the sun.

Yeah, I’m Fing done with this dude. He’s gonna have to prove to me that he doesn’t suck from here on out. He’s been Jonathan gannoning the offense for most of the season and I’ve been ok because every now and then, there would be a few good play calls. So nice been denying the truth that’s been staring me in the face.
 

As I look back at the season as I watch the eagles go 3 and out AGAIN by calling the same old crap vs buffalo, I realize that Johnson is just plain old garbage. He’s been holding back this offense all year. And as the season has gone on, there has been less and less plays schemed to get people open and getting the qb in a rhythm and more of the same old stupid ass plays THAT HAVENT WORKED FOR WEEKS/ALL YEAR!

 

play #1 qb draw

play #2 wr bubble screen

play #3 RPO with the te on a flare out and Smitty going over the middle

play #4 all streaks with the guys in the slot bending their routes in to the middle

 

thats it  those are the only plays on his play sheet  he should maybe call those plays once every 3 games if he had any sense because they’re so Fing predictable. I mean…. He even runs them all in the same situation from the same formation  but no….. Johnson calls each those plays no less than 4 times a game  

 

I’m done with giving johnson the benefit of the doubt. He’s gotta prove to me he doesn’t suck. Just like Quez Watkins.  

 

The dude always tries to pass pass pass and try to be too smart and cute early in the game, and then when we fall behind due to his stupidity, he tries to make up for it with better plays in the second half.

 

He is not good

Fire Brian Johnson

I agree, but it's not so much pass, pass, pass, it's long pass, long pass, long pass......for crying out loud, take what the D is giving you, especially when you're playing with a depleted OL.

They're winning despite him, not because of him. He needs to go.

Agreed! He seems to adjust well but he’s not figured out what works for this offense yet and it takes an awful first half to make any changes.

BJ is Jonathan Gannon 2.0. Thank heaven Jalen hurts is HIM. 

Just go Peyton Manning style for non-critical plays on the first half. Screw it. Lol. Or bring in a Senior Offensive Assistant to help with calls on gameday.

Even though we keep winning nail biters week after week, BJ's going to cost us games eventually if Sirianni doesn't figure something out!

B. Johnson's playcalling is horrendous. In the 2nd half it clearly looked like Jalen was just determined "to win" this game. But as a part of this coaching staff, and yes I blame the entire coaching staff, they need to find a way to play like they did played in the 2nd half of this game for the entire 60 freaking minutes. If the Birds can do that, then Desai's job just gets that much easier!!!

Missing Lane and pouring rain and the dude comes out of the gate calling passing plays every down.

3 pass plays to open the game

2 more pass plays right after we ran the ball down their throats to score a TD

How about more QB draws when clock management is critical?

I think we ran 5 consecutive screens last week to set this up today:
