Who are these imposters?! This Eagles team looks nothing like the Eagles team I saw for the first ten games of the season. Especially the offense. I just don’t accept that A.J. Brown’s absence has made that much of a difference.

In some ways I’d agree

This coaching staff has taken a high performing team and destroyed it in historic fashion.

You can’t blame personnel in the back 7 for this. Nick’s gone within the week. Lurie simply had to clean house.

That’s just a pathetic lack of effort on D. Inexcusable.

That would be a hugh mistake Maybe one they don’t recover from. You can’t keep changing coaches like your shorts

It's almost as if they're missing tackles on purpose. Surely an entire defense can't be that bad at fundamentals.
It does make you wonder. Every defender suddenly can’t tackle and it never gets fixed week after week after week. Something’s clearly very wrong with this team and their mentality.

It seems like every Eagles player is required to make at least one bonehead play during this game.
I have followed the Eagles for many years. This is beyond horrible. I have defended Coach Nick on several occasions…..I hate to say it….Nick needs to go his fatal flaw was his offensive coordinator…..defensive decisions were poor as well. Of course Howie will survive. .

No it’s their lack of ability

Put Matt Patricia in charge of anything outside of the Patriots bubble and it's proven to all go to crap.

Maybe Howie picked the OC??
They didn’t let Doug pick his so why would they let Nick

When this is the product your head coach puts out there, you move on. 10-1, sluggo. This is about team culture and a lack of player confidence in coaches.

This BS again. Look at this right arm That’s within 1 yd of the Los that’s all you need. I m out
“This BS”? What’s BS is spouting on about officials blowing calls on plays that they got it right. Saturday, you said the LT was “ At least 4 yards downfield”, and when presented with evidence that it was the right call, said something about how it “should” have been called anyways.

Now, a picture shows the lineman is most likely downfield when his foot is 2.5 yards forward, but you see it as a picture that clearly shows the play as legal even when his arm is pretty tight to his body? If we had a better angle here, I’m quite certain you’d see that he’s downfield. Too bad that we don’t have the soccer VAR technology to fully map it out.

Totally different dynamics. They let Nick pick his replacements at OC and DC in the offseason. Unfortunately, they both seem to be lacking

Elliott with a 40-yard FG makes it 25-12, Birds, with 12:02 to play.

Offsides on the D. Appears that Hurts is coming on to go for it on 4th & 5, so it's back to 25-9
