Serious issues are emerging in the Philadelphia Eagles offense as the team approaches Week 11 of the NFL season. Despite securing a critical victory over the Green Bay Packers on “Monday Night Football” in Week 10, the Eagles managed to score only 10 points against the formidable Packers defense, sparking concern among fans and analysts alike.
Wide receiver A.J. Brown has not shied away from expressing his frustration over the offense’s inconsistent performance. In a candid moment during an appearance on Janky Rondo’s Madden stream, Brown highlighted the team’s struggles, saying, “I mean, no. Where have you been? No… like, family’s good, but everything else? No. It’s a (explicit) show. You on some ‘How you been?’ — I’ve been struggling, brother.” His remarks underscore a sentiment shared by many within the organization regarding the ongoing offensive dilemmas.
Quarterback Jalen Hurts and first-year offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo have been frequently criticized as the primary figures contributing to the team’s underwhelming offensive display this season. As fans and analysts seek solutions, a potential name has emerged in coaching discussions.
Dianna Russini of The Athletic reported speculation that former New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll could be a candidate for the Eagles’ offensive coordinator position. Daboll is recognized for his offensive acumen, having previously coordinated for Alabama, leading them to a national championship in 2017, and then playing a pivotal role in Josh Allen’s development at the Buffalo Bills. Russini notes that while the idea of Daboll joining the Eagles is currently just speculation, it reflects his ambition to return to coaching in the right environment.
However, the prospect of Daboll taking over as offensive coordinator could bring its own set of challenges. Known for his strong personality and previous clashes within a coaching staff, Daboll’s addition could introduce further volatility within what is already a tumultuous locker room. Head coach Nick Sirianni would need to consider the potential risks associated with such a hire.
As the Eagles navigate these troubling waters, fans can only hope for a turnaround that revives a faltering offense and helps restore confidence as they move forward in the season.
