Seven straight! Not a typo, not a bad dream, this is the reality in Philadelphia right now. Just months after confetti fell for a Lombardi Trophy celebration, the Eagles have spiraled into an unrecognizable 2–7 nightmare. Sunday’s ugly 19–11 loss to the Giants cemented what fans already feared: an offense-first head coach has overseen a completely broken unit ranking 30th in scoring. When the adjustments fail, and the points dry up, nobody is safe from the fallout. Now, along with fans and analysts, former franchise center Jason Kelce is stepping into the ring, drawing a hard line in the sand regarding Nick Sirianni’s future.

“I mean, the wins and losses do matter,” Kelce said on The 94WIP Morning Show. “I think it’s less about wins and losses and more about improvement. Are we seeing these guys make the adjustments necessary? Are we seeing the head coach make adjustments given the injuries? Do we want to have Nick Sirianni and trust him to right this ship the following year?

“I think, obviously, Nick’s track record is incredible. He’s the most winning coach in the history of the Philadelphia Eagles in this timeframe. More than almost any other organization in this timeframe. There’s a lot of prior years there that you lean on. ‘Okay, this guy can clearly get it done.’”

That’s true. Sirianni is in his sixth year with the Philadelphia Eagles. He has already led the Eagles to win the NFC Championship in 2022 and the Super Bowl in 2024. Over the last five seasons, excluding the last nine weeks in 2026, Sirianni won 59 games, while losing only 26 games. But things are different this season. 

“This season, though, is not going well,” Kelce continued. “They haven’t made these corrections. They’re still struggling on offense. So I think that’s what you’re trying to see. You’re trying to see, ‘Okay, where are these guys evolving at? How are they correcting this? Okay, there’s been a bunch of injuries. Okay, are they taking care of all the things that are coachable, right? Are they not having missed assignments? Are they not having penalties? Are they a disciplined ball team? Are they playing hard? What’s the culture in the field of building?”

Those coachable corrections haven’t materialized, and as they enter Week 10, the Philadelphia Eagles still have plenty to clean up. Despite moving on from offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo this past offseason, the unit has stagnated statistically and has regressed into territory the franchise hasn’t seen since 1999.

Context certainly matters. Unlike Patullo, who had a healthy Jalen Hurts and A.J. Brown anchoring the attack a year ago, this year’s staff has navigated a relentless wave of injuries. Hurts, Saquon Barkley, and DeVonta Smith have all missed time, and any NFL offense will sputter without its foundational stars. Yet, even accounting for missing personnel, the sheer depth of Philadelphia’s regression is staggering, as NBC Sports Philadelphia’s Reuben Frank recently laid bare:

“How do you score 16.4 points per game? How do you average 260 yards per game? How do your running backs average 3.4 yards per carry? How does your offensive line allow 3 ½ sacks per game? How do you average 4.3 yards per play? How do your wide receivers go four games without a catch longer than 21 yards?”

With Hurts sidelined by blood clots, neither Tanner McKee, who dropped all three of his starts, nor Joe Milton III has been able to spark a turnaround. Milton’s seven-sack beating in Sunday’s 19–11 loss to the Giants proved that simply swapping quarterbacks won’t fix a broken foundation.

Fixing that protection requires separating blown assignments and scheme breakdowns from quarterbacks holding the ball too long. Right now, the offensive line is reeling from massive personnel turnover. Lane Johnson’s retirement stripped the room of veteran leadership, Cam Jurgens’ trade to Baltimore left a glaring void up the middle, and rookie Markell Bell has been thrown into the fire before he was ready.

Despite the mounting failures, Nick Sirianni has yet to make any mid-season coaching changes, though he left the door open as the bye week began.

“We’ll talk,” Sirianni said. “Right now, my job is to be there for our guys and to go watch the tape and go look through everything. We’ll do everything. I’ll do anything I can to help this team win football games. Like I said, 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.”

If changes are coming, Philadelphia needs to act fast to maximize the extra preparation time before returning to action against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Nov. 22.

Beyond the statistical slump, Sirianni’s in-game management has actively cost the Eagles winnable games, mirroring the exact lack of execution Kelce warned about.

In a 19–17 loss to Jacksonville that dropped Philly to 2–3, the Eagles overcame the shock of losing Johnson and Jurgens earlier that week to take a 17–16 lead with eight seconds left on a 48-yard Jake Elliott field goal. Instead of kicking off for a touchback, Philadelphia put the ball in play to Ameer Abdullah, who ripped off a 53-yard return to set up Cam Little’s game-winning 57-yarder as time expired.

“I didn’t make the right decision, and I lost us that game, and that’s what I said to our guys,” Sirianni admitted afterward. “What hurts there is the guys fought so hard, and then I don’t make the decision that I should make at the end of the game and I cost us that game, and I put that one on me.”

It wasn’t an isolated blunder. Earlier in the season against Chicago, Sirianni regretted back-to-back fourth-down miscalculations, punting on fourth-and-1 near midfield, only to go for it on fourth-and-5 from nearly the same spot a drive later.

Now, the losing is bleeding into optics and temperament. Following the Giants defeat, Sirianni kept reporters waiting roughly 72 minutes before taking the podium, attributing the unusual delay to lengthy conversations with his players. Worse still, a viral video caught the head coach appearing to raise his middle finger toward fans while walking toward the tunnel, an accusation Sirianni flatly denied, calling the clip “a surprise.” All these things caused a lot of damage, which can further take a toll on Sirianni’s employment.

What comes next for Sirianni?

Sitting at 2–7 through Week 10, the heat on Sirianni is undeniable. Still, an immediate firing remains unlikely. General manager Howie Roseman has consistently backed his head coach, the locker room hasn’t quit on him, and owner Jeffrey Lurie rarely pulls the trigger mid-season, having done so only once in his tenure, when he dismissed Chip Kelly with a single game left in the 2016 campaign.

Unlike Kelly, Sirianni holds a Super Bowl ring and a dominant five-year track record in his back pocket. That pedigree buys him time through the bye week. But as Jason Kelce made clear, past glory won’t save him if the corrections don’t show up on the field soon.
