The Story in 60 Seconds

Nick Tricome of PhillyVoice argues that making coaching staff changes during the Philadelphia Eagles' bye week won't salvage their season, but would establish a new long-term path. The Eagles fell to a 2-7 record following a 19-11 loss to the New York Giants on Sunday, extending their losing streak to seven games. Starting quarterback Joe Milton was sacked seven times after replacing Tanner McKee under center.

Tricome highlights that head coach Nick Sirianni, offensive coordinator Sean Mannion, and offensive line coach Chris Kuper face uncertain futures following significant offensive regressions. With starting quarterback Jalen Hurts sidelined by blood clots in his lungs, receiver DeVonta Smith dealing with a hamstring injury, and the NFL trade deadline looming, the writer believes the organization must shift focus to preparing for future seasons.
