The Phillies outfield has been a wasteland for a long time

The Eagles are undermanned and outgunned. Is Nick Sirianni a force multiplier for this team? www.bleedinggreennation.com/philadelphia...

I think my big Takeaway from NFL Sunday is that there are a lot of really stupid people in the NFL who masquerade as smart. And most of them are in the NFC East.

Ship Nick Sirianni and Dan Quinn out of the league. These are supposed to be two of the 30 smartest football minds in the entire world, and they can’t get their team to understand how to play in the last 30 seconds of a football game.

NO ONE IN THE NFCEAST WINS THIS WEEK TWO OF THEM PLAYED EACH OTHER

Kick it in the end zone. 35 yard line, no timeouts, play everyone on the sidelines on defense. Make a tackle. Nick Sirianni does not give you enough to coach a team that makes a mistake like that.

The decision to not kick that ball out of the end zone is legitimately fireable. That is the one thing you could not have done. Absolutely miserable game management.

@johnstolnis.bsky.socialOct 11, 2026, 4:56 PM

3 plays, 1 yard, punt 3 plays -7 yards, punt

@johnstolnis.bsky.socialOct 11, 2026, 4:54 PM

OK, Jalen Hurts. This is a spot where Michael Jordan gets them in field goal range. You need about 30 yards.

@johnstolnis.bsky.socialOct 11, 2026, 4:50 PM

At some point, you just have to turn Jalen Hurts loose and let him do what he wants. And if you fail, you fail. At least you know who to blame and whether to move on from him or not

That's now 16 second half possessions since Week 3 without a score of any kind. 70 plays 179 yards 2.55 yards per play

Again, wasting first down with a run into a brick wall will burn 40 seconds, but you're you're immediately starting your drive in a hole.

@johnstolnis.bsky.socialOct 11, 2026, 4:44 PM

Somehow the Jags don't score again. They had 1st-and-goal at the 1 and come away with nothing. It's like Sean Mannion is running their red zone offense.

the philadelphia eagles are going to do one thing every week and that’s play in the stupidest football game you’ve ever seen

@johnstolnis.bsky.socialOct 11, 2026, 4:41 PM

It is wild how similarly this week's game is to last week's against the Rams. Jacksonville is killing itself, it's the only way the Eagles are still in this game. When they decide to stop, it's over.

The Eagles have 16 carries for 24 rushing yards today. Maybe stop running on first down.
