Eagles are hiring Colts' OC Nick Sirianni as their head coach, sources tell ESPN. Sirianni spent three seasons as a Chiefs' assistant coach, five seasons with the Chargers, and the past three with the Colts. Now the 39-year-old Sirianni becomes the lead man in Philadelphia.
That Eagles has lost a ton of prestige

Over the years.
They really haven't had any  
JonC : 1/21/2021 2:08 pm : link
the SB win is an outlier.
We hired a special teams coordinator  
HomerJones45 : 1/21/2021 2:15 pm : link
we've got nothing to say.
This division is so ripe for the taking

If we'd just get our shit together...
Quite the punchable face  
mac attack : 1/21/2021 2:20 pm : link
and not one of the candidates I was dreading Philly landing, so I'm glad that worked itself out.
I hope this guy  
Dr. D : 1/21/2021 2:20 pm : link
is one of those who's a better OC than HC, but that it takes them a few years to know for sure.

Hope he calls plays and does just enough to be around for a few years (while losing to the Giants), before eggles have to try again.. and again.. and again.. for the rest of my life!

Suck Eagles Suck!

Really fucking frustrating, they need to have an epic offseason in FA and the draft.
I don't have a hot take if he is going to be good or not  
Essex : 1/21/2021 2:35 pm : link
given that I thought Shurmur would be good for us, Kelly would be good for the Eagles, and Pederson would be a laughing stock. In other words, I don't know shite.
The Cowboys hire of McCarthy looks worse by the day..  
Sean : 1/21/2021 2:38 pm : link
League is trending towards young leaders who can command a room. Most of these new hires are under 40. As Rodgers keeps winning, McCarthy just keeps looking worse.
Sirianni has never been a play caller  
Mike in NY : 1/21/2021 2:47 pm : link
And most of his success has been with Rivers at QB, but by all accounts he is a hard worker. Will be interesting to see the staff that he puts together around him. It seems like that is more important these days than the prestige of the head coach.
No one said otherwise  
pjcas18 : 1/21/2021 2:47 pm : link
but just for clarification, I posted this without comment.

I have never heard of Nick Sirianni until I read the tweets mentioning him.

I have no issue with OC's being hired as HC's or with Nick Sirianni, but i hope he is a disaster of epic proportions.

The problem is the fans of the other teams are looking at us and saying, "Man this division is ripe for the taking".

They identified a problem and didn't cling to a sunk cost.

crick n NC : 1/21/2021 2:57 pm : link
Was much more to WFT releasing Haskins than OTF play, and ability. It can be reasonably argued that WFT still remains committed to Haskins without the Character issues. Not the same.

To be fair, the problem identified itself alot quicker and alot more clearly than the potential problem the Giants have (or don't have).

WFT found a QB?  
LawrenceTaylor56 : 1/21/2021 3:24 pm : link
Lol what? What's this based off of? Because of one game?

You guys were putting Daniel Jones in Canton after his debut against Tampa Bay only to wanting him replaced by other teams backups. Lol.

Are you saying they solved the problem?? With the way Nick Mullens was elevated to Montana-like status, I'm assuming Heinecke is ascending that same hill now?

The kid who played in the playoff game, whatever his name was. and listen i'm not saying he's the answer and it was only one game. But he at least is going to get a shot to win the starting job for them next year. I think Alex Smith is done...

I suspect most Giants fans never heard of him - kind of like Joe Judge - I live in Boston metro and had never heard of him before he was a candidate for the Giants HC.

I'm saying they nipped a problem in the bud.

Mullens isn't Montana. Just better (and cheaper) than Jones. Very, very low bar.

The first step in fixing a QB problem

Is acknowledging you don't have one. If WFT has acknowledged that, then yeah they're ahead of us at QB.

Wow Deuce has been in house for years and has an Asst HC title, but they hire this guy?

That Roomey Rule isn’t too much worth the paper it’s written on. How many McVay assistants have gotten jobs? At least two I believe. And Bienemy (sp?) and Deuce can’t get a crack? They throw this out idea that they haven’t called plays, but was Dan Campbell calling them in NO, Zach Taylor and Lafleur when they were with the Rams, and Sirianni who has never called plays.
Siri?

Not mention Dan Campbell like he's a positional coach and nothing else. He had the assistant title and coached the Dolphins for 12 games a few years ago.

Terps used to be a good poster with a lot of football knowledge and opinions. Now, he's just a bore.

I imagine when the Giants are QB shopping next year that most of the posters giving me shit now will whitewash all this and act like they were saying Jones stunk the whole time. It's a BBI phenomenon I'm familiar with.
When he was hired the first thing that came to my mind  
Essex : 1/21/2021 6:04 pm : link
was the old Howard Stern clip when Jackie apologized to his wife that they played over and over "I would like to apologize to my wife Nancy SIRIANNI Martling"
Terps you said you believe in Judge  
BigBlueCane : 1/21/2021 7:23 pm : link
So why do you continually ignore and discount what he's said about Jones?

Either you trust his opinion and information or not.

Dude, let's see how next season goes before we cast Jones aside. Gun to head, I think you're probably right in that DJ isn't the answer, but we should all hope he is.

Of course. We all want the same thing. Talking about what we hope happens...is that what we want to be doing? I'd rather try to understand why the team blows.
Are they  
fireitup77 : 1/21/2021 7:37 pm : link
Keeping the former staff? Their Oline coach would be a nice addition here.
The Giants haven’t committed to Jones yet..  
Sean : 1/21/2021 7:52 pm : link
It’s his third year of his rookie deal. I can see the frustration it they give him a second contract, we aren’t there yet.

Judge has nothing to gain by knocking Jones. Why would he?
