unCovering the Birds: A Time for Change?

Jeff McLane and Olivia Reiner conduct an autopsy of the Eagles after their seventh straight loss

A crucial crossroads is here. The Eagles have reached the bye and, as timing would also have it, the NFL trade deadline, mired in their worst slump of the Nick Sirianni era. There’s no doubt the franchise needs to course correct, but how? With who? Will players be on the move? Could coaches’ jobs be on the line? The Philadelphia Inquirer’s Jeff McLane and Olivia Reiner conduct an autopsy of the Eagles after their seventh straight loss - a 19-11 defeat to the New York Giants - and look at the big picture of an organization that has swiftly fallen far from its Super Bowl glory two years ago.
