Perhaps we\u2019ll see how owner Jeffrey Lurie and general manager feel about it. They are the only ones who can step in if they feel it\u2019s an unfixable problem, and it feels like it is. It\u2019s been nine games now, out of the 12 played, where the Eagles have scored seven or fewer points in an entire half.<\/p>\n
\u201cI know it will keep coming back to Kevin, but again, if I thought it was one thing, then you make those changes,\u201d said Sirianni. \u201cObviously, it’s a lot of different things, but I don’t think it is Kevin. Now, we all have a part in it. Kevin has a part of it. I have a part of it. All the coaches have a part of it. All the players have a part of it. Again, you win and lose as a team. It’s never on one thing.\u201d<\/p>\n
That\u2019s supposed to make everyone feel better. That there\u2019s more than one thing that needs fixed, and there are just five games left now to do it. Compounding the urgency is that the red-hot Cowboys are now breathing down the Eagles\u2019 neck in the NFC East. It was a division that seemed to be theirs in a runaway when they were finding ways to win despite an offense that kept shooting itself in the foot.<\/p>\n
Now, the defense is getting into the act and not coming to the rescue. It allowed 281 yards on the ground and close to 500 total yards of offense.<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t think I\u2019ve ever been part of a defense that allowed that many yards on the ground,\u201d said Nakobe Dean. <\/p>\n
There are no \u201cfire Vic Fangio\u201d chants, though. The defensive coordinator has over 40 years of coaching experience. Patullo, in his first year as an OC, doesn\u2019t have that resume. What he does have is Sirianni\u2019s support as well as some key players, such as Saquon Barkley and A.J. Brown.<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t think something big needs to change,\u201d said Barkley. \u201cThe sky is falling outside the locker room. We understand that. But I have nothing but the utmost confidence in the men in this locker room, players and coaches included. It\u2019s going to take all of us to come together, block out the noise. We can\u2019t be pointing fingers because everybody is contributing to the way we\u2019re playing right now. Literally, every single body. We all gotta play better.\u201d<\/p>\n
Brown called the question about personnel or coaching changes \u201ccrazy,\u201d then said no changes were needed. With extra time off before they play again, that could change.<\/p>\n
