The Eagles final drive before halftime against the 49ers included an incomplete deep pass to A.J. Brown, who was then slow to get up and left the field for one play. When he returned, he missed another pass on third down forcing the team to punt. Head coach Nick Sirianni didn\u2019t seem mad about the missed opportunities, but was looking for some urgency from his players to get off the field for the punt. Brown apparently didn\u2019t appreciate it, resulting in the two having to be separated.<\/p>\n
Sirianni for his part emphasizes the importance of hurrying \u2014 to the line, to the sideline, in all facets of the game \u2014, but Brown was just injured in some capacity a couple plays prior so maybe he wasn\u2019t able to move quite as quickly.<\/p>\n
The head coach was asked at halftime about the interaction, and Sirianni told Erin Andrews:<\/p>\n
\u201cEmotions, they run high, especially in the playoffs. Of course after this game, we\u2019ll go back to loving each other but look, that\u2019s just the way it is. We\u2019re just fine\u201d<\/p>\n
If the Eagles win, the two will probably just move on, but if they lose, it\u2019ll definitely be a talking point for months \u2014 especially considering Brown\u2019s penchant for verbalizing his displeasure, and Sirianni being a big personality.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Eagles final drive before halftime against the 49ers included an incomplete deep pass to A.J.
