Eagles’ Offense Struggles Prompt Sirianni to Call for Change

The Philadelphia Eagles’ offense has averaged just 14.5 points over their last four games, the worst stretch of the season. Head coach Nick Sirianni said the team must “do different things” to get points on the board and that “everything’s on the table.” He has suggested that quarterback Tanner McKee might call plays from the field instead of the coaches’ box and that the offense needs to be altered to play to McKee’s strengths. The change comes after a 25‑14 loss to the Panthers, in which a defensive miscommunication allowed Bryce Young to score on a wide‑open Tommy Tremble. Sirianni’s comments come as the Eagles look to reverse a four‑game losing streak and address an “unimaginative, uncoordinated and unproductive” scheme under offensive coordinator Sean Mannion.
