Sirianni not ruling out changes after Eagles' 7th straight loss - ESPN
PHILADELPHIA — Coach Nick Sirianni did not rule out the possibility of staff changes at the bye as he looks to find answers to what's ailing the 2-7 Eagles.
«We'll talk,» Sirianni said following Sunday's 19-11 loss to the New York Giants. «Obviously, right now my job is to be there for our guys and to go watch the tape and go look through everything. I'll do anything I can to help this team win football games. I'll look at myself internally first and then go from there.
»My job is to coach the players and to coach the coaches, and anything I can do to help this team win games, we'll do. Everything can always be on the table, but I don't think you change just to change because that's what your record says that — you've got to look at what's really real and not react to anything else."
The Eagles have lost seven straight in large part because of their struggles on offense. They exited Sunday's contest ranked 30th in points per game (16.4), expected points added (minus-47.28) and first downs per game (15.8) and 28th in offensive efficiency rating (31.53).
Sean Mannion, the 34-year-old first-time playcaller, has had a hard time coming up with answers for a unit that has been operating without quarterback Jalen Hurts, right tackle Lane Johnson and receiver DeVonta Smith, among others, for a good portion of the season. Philadelphia has had issues in the second half of games in particular, which can be attributed at least in part to less-than-stellar adjustments.
«Obviously, none of us offensively have done a good enough job. We're not going to sit here as coaches — and it's not Sean, it's all of us and it starts with me,» Sirianni said. «I think the correct question there to me is, 'Do you think you've done a good enough job?'
