2. Sirianni is the rot that is at the center of this team! He's been a bullshitter since he started and hasn't changed since. I don't care if he won us a trophy. We won because of the team talent, veteran leadership, and competency of Kellen Moore. Every free agent was begging to come to Philly, now top players and assistants want out, and nobody wants to come here as a coordinator. This is what happens when you'd rather save face and won't hold people (or a person) accountable including ownership. How do you let your head coach repeat an obvious hiring mistake and watch him do nothing for a whole season and still let him run your team?!

3. AJ Brown for Max Crosby, straight trade. Worth it?

4. Crosby a tough bull I feel like he got what it takes to make it in the city

5. I've mostly leaned pro-Sirianni these past years because they've won a ton of games with him in charge and you can't argue with those results. But the Patullo fiasco is having repercussions that will affect this team for longer than just next season. When you lose a guy like Stoutland, it's not just a simple matter of making a change. He's been nothing but superb since he got here, and his results in developing players speak for themselves. Likewise we nearly lost Vic Fangio, who also badly wanted to get out of Philly until god knows what offer they made to keep him here one more season. When you hear the way players talk about Stoutland and Fangio, you never hear them talk about Sirianni that way. We all know he's an asshole; he's famous for it. But until now my attitude was he's our asshole and he wins. This business with Stoutland has me flipping the other way. He's gone, and Fangio was gone until they bribed him back. They had to reach way farther down their list of OC candidates than they wanted to before finding one who was willing to say yes. Most likely AJ will be gone in June, and I won't blame him one bit. No player of that caliber wants to waste the prime of his career in an offense like the one we just witnessed. I expect his attitude is if Nick stays AJ goes, and he's 100% right to feel that way.

   What other unforeseen ripples come out of the Patullo disaster remain to be seen, but making him the OC and dissing other more qualified guys to protect KP all season could eventually turn out to be one of the worst decisions in the history of the franchise. Every team has its offseason drama, but all of this nonsense points directly back to Sirianni. He's looking more and more like a cancer on this organization, and it's really starting to show now. Guys like Stoutland and Fangio are capable of making any team look like a well-oiled machine even when the wheels are coming off, and when guys like that start bailing, you're headed into a deep ditch it's very, very hard to pull out of.

   I'm gonna go out on a limb here and predict that 2026 will be the season when Sirianni's Eagles finally end up missing the playoffs and Nick gets his ass fired to prevent more quality staff from fleeing out the door. The early signs are pointing toward a troubled season. His unjustified loyalty to KP and overall undisciplined behavior are likely to cost him, this team, and us fans, for years to come.

6. Stoutland University🦅🦅🦅🦅

7. Stout is one of the best coaches in the league. So sad he’s retiring, but I’m glad he’s staying in the building?

8. Thank you Stout!!! Go birds DH!!!

9. I believe Nick Sirrani is a placeholder. Lurie's gamble is Sean Mannion is going to cut his teeth, hire his own staff and Nick be let go, and Sean be the new young HC 2027 season- Howie job is also to backfill Vic's job in 2027.

10. yeaaaa….. if the eagles are not an improved team next season, Sirianni OUT.

11. If Sirianni left Phila tomorrow, would there really be a stampede to get him as a head coach.
    He gets out coached constantly. His success has been riding the strategy of quality OC coaches. When he hasn’t had them, his lack of planning and strategy have shown on the O side.

    Sirianni isn’t a defense mind
    He isn’t an offense mind
    Requires a handler to oversee his cheesy antics
    He’ one if sports cliche

12. We don't know when did he took over. But the run game was a problem last year

13. 🗣️ HEY! HOW TF ARE WE GOING TO PAY MAXX CROSBY $35M A YEAR WHEN WE HAVE ONLY HAVE $20M?! WAKE TF UP AND STOP TALKING ABOUT CROSBY OR GARRETT!! 🗣️

14. Lurie is letting nick hang himself just like the chip Kelly saga. wait and see. if we end up 7-11 next year, nick will on a bus back to upstate new York!

15. parsons is young Crosby is approaching 30. this does not jive with Howie's trading practices. he looks for young talented players. Crosby 2 tears ago would have been the move not now for the price I am hearing plus his bloated contract. howie will not give multiple #1's for Crosby. if you are talking players and a pick that is possible. AJ, Nolan smith and a #2 for Crosby and a #3. take it or walk away.

16. I'd be okay including AJ in a trade for Crosby instead of tons of draft picks.

17. Crosby too old too much money

18. Sorry, I'm done. This team is cooked. Was a nice run while it lasted.

19. Start to to blame Nick for all the bullshit🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

20. Thank you coach Stoutland. Absolute legend.

21. That stout news makes me sad but glad to hear that he will still be in the building!!

22. I do not want to see Stout go but who knows what really happened always remember there are 3 sides to every story there is your version my version and then what really happened plus we get a lot of "opinions" from the so called media 😁

23. I’m officially on the Nick Sirianni must go bus.
    Nick’s the reason why prominent OC candidates didn’t want to join the team. Nick is less of a coach and more like a overhyped motivational speaker.
    Now we lost Stout who has literally proven his worth in weight with developing elite players on the offense.
    I blame Howie and Lurie for letting this get to this point.
    Thanks Jeff Stoutland!! ❤

24. I have faith in Jeff and Howie to navigate all of this ❤

25. Stoutland

26. crosby is skinny with no muscles. no thank you. Young man you are missing the point with sirrianni. He gives howie the power to be howie. the oregon coach had howie with a dunce cap with a office in the basement. Howie can push sirianni around because he is just cos playing as a head coach. He cant coach at all. His offense stinks. It is about POWER! Howie wants to keep it and sirrianni allows that.

27. Moro Ojomo, AJ Brown and our 3rd this year from the Jets for Crosby!! Get it done

28. Thomas Maxx Crosby makes 35 million a year there is no way the Eagles can afford him!

29. Let me get that shirt though

30. Should have kept Stout and let Sirianni go

31. The way he talked about his first time playing here it seems like he would definitely want to play for us ya mean.!!💯🎯💪🏽🦅 Make it happen Howie..Go Birds 🦅🏈💯👍🏽💪🏽💚

32. Jeff Stoutland, Stepping on his toes that is disrespectful! Stoutland University!

33. Who would we have gotten if we let Siriani go?

34. Go Birds! We'll miss ya Stout

35. I'll be glad one day when I see the news that Sirianni has been let go. The guy is useless and everything is turning to
    sh!t because of him. Luckyest HC of all time

36. GO Birds! Jordan Mailata heartbroken about Jeff Stoutland leaving the Eagles.

37. Stoutland – he was the best coach the Eagles had and by far the most loved by his players. Just sad to see it end like this – thanks to him for so many dominant OLine units.

38. Gonna miss Jeff Stoutland – a lot!!! Really hoping he stays with the team! 🦅
