That old guy who still writes about the Philadelphia Eagles, now for PHLY. Annoys w/dad jokes, social commentary. Fan of what Twitter used to be. Also of rescue Pit Bulls. Husband/dad. Grew up in the South way back when progress actually seemed possible.
Maybe Big Dom should call plays.

Thanks but he doesn’t mention punting. Needed a follow-up question. All he talks about is the FG
Nick Sirianni explains his decision to go for it on 4th & 6 from the Green Bay 35-yard line with 33 seconds left and the Eagles leading 10-7.

Who would be better at their job if they switched, Chuck Schumer as Eagles head coach or Nick Sirianni as Senate minority leader?

Based on offensive success rate, that was the Eagles' worst regular-season performance of the Sirianni/Hurts era. A 6th percentile offensive performance.
The only game that was worse was the playoff loss to the Bucs after the 2023 season.

Nobody asked Sirianni about punting on the last fourth down? Or even trying a higher-percentage throw?

You could kick a FG with 33 secs left, make Green Bay score a TD. You could punt and make the Packers go like 90 yards.
Or you could throw to the goalline on fourth and six.
Coach got hypothermia?

Does the dump off to Shipley on third-and-15 count as a fourth?
A.J. Brown hasn't had a target since the 3:12 mark in the first quarter, by the way.

That is, by my tally, three give-up runs for Will Shipley on third down in the #Eagles' first six drives.
Confoundingly conservative play-calling so far tonight.

AJ has to just come out and rip people tonight after this game, none of the cloak and dagger shit. Come out and say that the way the offense is being run is unacceptable

Apparently the Eagles don’t have a QB or receivers who can get a 3rd and 12 completion.
I know, news to me as well. They must be playing the ‘85 Bears.

The Eagles have decided to replace slipping and sliding with taking a penalty on every snap. Bold strategy

If I were gonna throw on third and 2 — and with the Eagles, not sure I ever would, because, why? — but if I did, I might count more on AJ Brown beating the coverage than on Jahan Dotson.
