Eagles' bye week could bring a coaching shake-up

Philadelphia Eagles coach Nick Sirianni would not rule out staff changes during the Week 10 bye after a 19-11 home loss to the New York Giants left the Eagles 2-7 and losers of seven in a row, ESPN’s Tim McManus reported. It was the Giants’ first win in Philadelphia since 2013, per the AP.

Philadelphia came out of Sunday ranked 30th in points per game (16.4), expected points added and first downs per game, and 28th in offensive efficiency, according to ESPN.

Sean Mannion, 34, is a first-time playcaller. He has worked without quarterback Jalen Hurts, right tackle Lane Johnson and receiver DeVonta Smith for much of the season.

The Eagles led 8-6 at the half and then managed only 94 yards after the break. Sirianni swapped Tanner McKee for Joe Milton III at quarterback. Milton stretched the field and made plays with his legs, but three weeks in the building showed.

Sirianni’s tone has shifted in a week

A week earlier, he said flatly he wasn’t changing his play-caller or quarterback and added, “I’m not making any changes there.” On Sunday he took a wider view. “I’ll look at myself internally first,” he said, then called everything fair game while warning against changing just because of the record.

That is not a firing announcement, and it is not a vote of confidence either. Philadelphia has two weeks before its next game, Nov. 22 against Pittsburgh, to decide whether the answer is a new voice on offense or just better execution.

The deadline is Tuesday at 4 p.m. ET. ESPN says tight end Dallas Goedert, cornerback Riq Woolen and defensive tackle Moro Ojomo, all on expiring deals, are likely to draw interest.

Goedert said everyone is available at the right price and that he spoke with general manager Howie Roseman a couple of weeks ago. With the Giants (5-2-1) well clear in the NFC East, the Eagles’ next two days may say as much about their direction as the bye.
