Colin Cowherd: “When you have an offensive line and a mobile quarterback like Jalen Hurts, and you get three rushing first downs, 0 for 9 on third down, and 42 total rushing yards, that is coaching malpractice. I can defend, to some degree, every losing coach in the playoffs... I can even defend Mike McCarthy. But that ‘thing’ last night [Monday], the last seven weeks for Philadelphia – I’m sorry, people in LA have seen that vibe, it’s called the Brandon Staley Chargers vibe. Young coach over his skis. It’s so bad that even the star quarterback regresses badly. From close losses, to 10-point losses, to the team basically no-shows at the end... That’s what they did the last month. ‘A’ coaches like McVay, Andy Reid, Shanahan – they can lose a coordinator or top assistant and you don’t even notice. ‘B’ coaches like Dan Quinn in Atlanta can lose a really great coordinator, Kyle Shanahan, and it’s not the same team. But if you’re a ‘C’, a ‘D’, or an ‘F', and you lose Shane Steichen, which Nick Sirianni lost, you’re utterly incompetent, and you have no business being a head coach. The longer Shane Steichen was gone it got worse every month. The last third of the season the team was telling you ‘THIS DOESN’T WORK.’ Star players scrubbing their social media, a star quarterback regressing... This is not going to work. When he got the job the press conference was brutal. Two sources told me they didn’t think he was ready. This is Philadelphia – you talk about a high leverage, high intensity football job. Throughout his time in Philly he’s yelling at fans in the tunnel... He’s like a kid who got a grown-up job and fooled people for awhile because he had a great coordinator. Even the ‘Tush Push’ doesn’t work. Philly invented it and can’t even get their invention right. This is not over-reacting. Trading Tua and Dak would be over-reacting, but you can lose games, you can’t lose a locker room. This is an organization in Philly with high standards. They moved off Super Bowl-winning coaches. This is not a Jalen Hurts issue, this is not a personnel issue. That was just about effort and great coaches get great effort. Bad coaches, you can see it on the field, and you saw it for three and a half hours.”
Watch Colin Cowherd of FS1’s The Herd explain why it’s time for the Philadelphia Eagles to move off third-year head coach Nick Sirianni after their humiliating Wild Card playoff loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Monday night.
Check out the segment above as Colin says it’s not an overreaction to conclude that Sirianni is now way over his skis handling an Eagles offense that deeply misses former offensive coordinator Shane Steichen.
