Very tough call Lurie has here. But the opening quarter was so bad and nothing really changed offensively, except injury. 
 
Belichick HAS to get an inquiry.

I don’t think it’s a very tough call. Sorry, you can’t be a head coach and be that dependent on your 2 coordinators.

Eagles weren’t hungry this year. I remember watching Kelce’s podcast and Jason said Travis told him “You won’t want to win the year after you lose the Super Bowl”, and then Jason said he knows what he means after he lost the Super Bowl. Putting all that effort again to come up short feels daunting. 

The correlation of losing the Super Bowl and having a down year is pretty well-documented. Doesn't always happen completely, but there's always some fraction of a loss-of-morale factor

The Eagles are also a case of losing both coordinators in the same year, of course

It feels like 15-20 years ago most coaches didn't even go for it on 4th & 1 on the opponents side of the field. Feel like that should be automatic go except for special situations (EG down by 2 or less late in the game and in easy FG range)

It's ingrained in the broadcasters.  So often they'll saw " brings up 4th down and tram x is forced to punt"

No, they are choosing to punt.

Is this Kelces last year? 

Probably? But, we've also been saying that for like 3-4 years now.

He was having fun last year so I saw why he came back, but after this I can't imagine he wants to put his body through another battering.

I won't lie, I'm happy for Baker. Cleveland did him pretty poorly and the guy has always had a ton of talent. I hope he makes a home there in Tampa and gets rolling again. He's a fun guy to watch. 

Yeah, I've always been a fan of Baker

I wouldn't be shocked if Sirianni is handed his walking papers. Their whole staff has apparently lost the team.

I thought that was crazy before the game but not anymore

I mean, they were 10-1 to start the season. I'm not sure this is a hunger thing? It seems more like a dysfunction deal.

Honestly the Eagles defense started falling off at around the same time they stripped Desai's defensive playcalling duties and gave them Patricia, right?

Sirianni needs to answer for that at the very least. Whether you think it's warranted or not, it definitely didn't help.

Two of three classic blunders! The third being never start a land war in Asia!
