Nick Sirianni Addresses Staff Changes After Eagles' Loss to Giants at Home for 1st Time in 13 Years

Embattled Philadelphia Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni left the door open for potential changes to the coaching staff after the team's losing streak extended to seven games on Sunday.

"We'll talk," he told reporters. "Obviously, right now my job is to be there for our guys and to go watch the tape and go look through everything. I'll do anything I can to help this team win football games. I'll look at myself internally first and then go from there. My job is to coach the players and to coach the coaches, and anything I can do to help this team win games, we'll do. Everything can always be on the table, but I don't think you change just to change because that's what your record says that—you've got to look at what's really real and not react to anything else."

If there are changes to Sirianni's staff, it likely would come on the offensive side of the ball. While the Birds have been ravaged by injury—including the loss of quarterback Jalen Hurts for the season—the offensive woes have become a theme during Sirianni's tenure.

Last season, the offense regressed so much throughout the season that offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo was ultimately fired in the offseason, just one year into his tenure. He was replaced by another first-time offensive coordinator, Sean Mannion, who installed a completely new scheme.

But the issues have persisted. Even before Hurts was lost for the year the Birds were struggling on offense. Some of that is down to personnel—the offensive line has again struggled, with the in-season retirement of Lane Johnson only exasperating that issue, while key players like DeVonta Smith and Dontayvion Wicks have missed multiple weeks—but some of it is unquestionably scheme and game-planning.

And it has been ugly. Really, really ugly:

There is of course a larger question brewing—just how much longer is Sirianni himself safe? If there are staff changes, will they start with him?

There is the sense in Philadelphia that the Eagles dramatically underachieved last season despite making the playoffs, and that trend has carried over into 2026. There is also a general belief in the city, fair or not, that the team's two Super Bowl trips during Sirianni's tenure coincided with the tenures of two very good offensive coordinators (Shane Steichen, Kellen Moore) who went on to become head coaches.

When the team has promoted in-house at the position or gone with a first-time option (Brian Johnson, Patullo, Mannion) the offense has often regressed. The two constants in both cases have been Sirianni and Hurts.

But the latter is currently hurt and Philly's offense has spiraled even further. That has left Sirianni's status in very real peril. Whether the Birds would make an in-season change at head coach—they are heading into a bye week—remains to be seen. But come the offseason, Sirianni's job status is very much going to be a topic unless he turns this thing around.
