The Eagles’ surprising late-season collapse has sparked speculation that coach Nick Sirianni will be fired, despite making the playoffs in each of his three seasons with the team.
After Monday night’s 32-9 loss to the Buccaneers, Sirianni was asked by reporters about his job security.
“I’m not thinking about that. I’m thinking about the players,” Sirianni said. “You’re not worried about me.”
Previously, Sirianni was asked about the possibility of replacing offensive and defensive coordinators.
“It’s a little premature to talk about that,” Sirianni said. “We’ll work through all of that. I’m not there yet. We’re hurting right now. . . . My heart isn’t in it right now.”
He reiterated that he was concerned about the players who were injured due to the sudden end to the season. He also admitted that they got into a rut they couldn’t get out of.
It would be a shock to see any changes made. But the situation is already shocking. From the Super Bowl to 10-1, 1-6, and early elimination from the playoffs, it was a game that never felt competitive.
You will have an answer within a few days. Many Eagles fans will probably only accept one answer: change across the board.
