Still very very stupid but I don’t think it is new. https://www.nfl.com/news/eagles-oc-brian-johnson-we-have-to-make-sure-we-get-wr-a-j-brown-going In Sunday's loss, Brown finished with four catches for 53 yards, including just one catch on one target for 18 yards in the second half. Eagles offensive coordinator Brian Johnson pointed to the Eagles' lack of plays in the final two quarters as the Cardinals controlled the clock as part of the reason for Brown's lack of targets, but admitted sometimes you just need to get your playmakers the ball. "A.J. is a great player, and we've got to force him the ball sometimes and make sure we get him going," Johnson said Tuesday, via the team's official transcript. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vileborg Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 Might be time to bring in some new offensive coaching talent. Like Kalen Deboer, the Washington coach who has lit the college world on fire. I admittedly haven't watched too many college games but he took Washington to a 14-0 record off a healthy offense. This is Washington who is not known as a perennial power and just knocked off Texas on it's way to the CFP Championship. He also has done it since taking over just a couple years ago. Teams don't just come out of nowhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LacesOut Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 I think in the off-season, the Offensive side of the Coaching Staff will remain the same. But, the Defensive Staff may get ripped up. It's a shame that they went into this bounce back SB year with 2 new Coordinators. It has proven - IMO - to be a failure and that rests on the HC. With some of their older players probably retiring after this frustration of a season, their winning window is quietly closing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder what would be different if the LB group would have been taken seriously in the offseason. To lose all of the starters and think Nakobe the China Doll would be a suitable replacement is derelict. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brkmsn Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 If we have just been setting up the rest of the NFL to believe we are completely inept, the regular season has been a huge success. We're out our best 2 WRs and HB, our QB is playing with a dislocated finger, and the defense is blitzing 90% of the time and we are still calling passes with all the receivers running medium and deep routes while our other HB is averaging around 7 ypc. You couldn't write a more unbelievable script even if you combined a Jackie Chan movie with Fast and the Furious and an episode of 9-1-1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MF POON Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 IF he goes to Carolina and has success installing his own offense, then we'll know that "Nick's" offense was/is the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The offense this year looks quite a bit like it did when Sirianni first got here and was handling play calling (we just didn't have all the talent we have now to get those scrappy wins we were getting earlier in the season). When Steichen took over play calling it was a completely different offense (which makes me wonder if that was still Nick's offense or Steichen had more freedom to run things "his way"). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm gonna assume it was Steichen being a better playcaller, because I doubt they just installed a completely new offense 6 games into the season. Again, if the rumors of the FO being too involved are true, then I can't blame Nick/Brian as much as I'd like to. It really could be a situation where BJ just hasn't gotten a good feel for this team, but it's hard to say which is which.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brkmsn Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 It's kind of like how Gannon had some interviews after his first year and we were all dumbfounded. They may be looking at him, not because of his play-calling, but because how he works with QBs. They invested a lot of their future in Young and absolutely need to bring in someone that can develop young QBs. Obviously, there is the Rooney rule as well. But he would be a good candidate to help develop Young. It's, IMO, very unlikely he gets chosen this year, but teams with openings may want to keep tabs on him and start by interviewing him now and then watching what he does in the future. If he flops here as OC and becomes available, a team may want to add him to their staff in the future. So they take care of the Rooney rule and find out more about a young coach for future reference. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look around all the playoff teams are having their coaching staffs poached by teams that were eliminated. Its annoying to keep going through offensive highs and lows anytime a coordinator leaves.

Steichen was the brains. We should have promoted him to head coach. And Siri should be promoted to a Head Clown. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could just be bad at calling Nick's offense, which apparently Nick can't even do himself and had to have Steichen take over those duties. I thought I saw someone state in another thread that he did well coaching in college. I mean the guy was part of why Jalen was MVP last year, but this year stinks calling Nick's plays and has had success in other areas, so yeah, I'm thinking he may have success elsewhere.
