Nick Sirianni addressed his decision-making after the Eagles' win over the New Orleans Saints, specifically regarding a fourth-and-1 call at the Saints’ 15-yard line. Despite the failed attempt, he took responsibility for the play, a Tush Push fake that resulted in no gain, leaving the Eagles trailing 3-0 at half-time.
Sirianni emphasized the collaborative nature of play calling, detailing how various coaches contribute during games. He also accepted blame for a Jalen Hurts interception that came from a miscommunication on receiver DeVonta Smith's route.
The Eagles are facing challenges ahead with injuries to key receivers, including A.J. Brown and Smith, but Sirianni expressed confidence in the team's depth. He's optimistic about the performance of backup players like Johnny Wilson and Jahan Dotson as they prepare for their next game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
