Nick Kostos: Sirianni Needs a Brain Transplant

Nick thinks the Eagles have all the makings of an amazing team, there's just one problem....

Transcript

00:00Eagles drive right down the field, 4th and 3 from the Saints 34-yard line.

00:04He goes for it, Jalen Hurds gets sacked.

00:07Now normally, in a vacuum, I would say 4th and 3 from the 34 in that range, like I would want to go for it there.

00:12But considering the situation, that you had already blown it at the end of the first half by not taking the 3.

00:18You are losing by 3 points on the road against good opposition in a hostile environment.

00:22You have outplayed the opposition.

00:24You have got to get the points on the board here.

00:26Again, I am Mr. Aggression.

00:29I love aggression from head coaches in the National Football League.

00:32You had to kick the field goal there.

00:34The Eagles yesterday, the players on the field, they won this game in spite of Nick Sirianni, not because of him.

00:42Do you remember the piece that came out from ESPN?

00:45Tim McMadison, Jeremy Fowler, we talked about it on the show.

00:48That painted the picture of last Eagles season and offseason.

00:52The disconnect between Nick Sirianni and Jalen Hurds.

00:55And how Sirianni was going to back off and Lakellen Moore and Vic Fangio do their thing.

00:59And I said on the show, all Nick Sirianni has to do is stay out of it.

01:04And the Eagles will cruise to an NFC East Championship.

01:08They still might do that.

01:09We will talk about the Cowboys coming up in a second.

01:11But the fact that Sirianni is telling you after the game that he is making these critical play calls and they are failing.

01:18Whoa.

01:20Big time red flag.

01:22So as we sit here today on this Monday and we think about Nick Sirianni making these calls for the Eagles,

01:27I'll ask you, the person watching, the person listening.

01:30Do you think the Philadelphia Eagles this year are capable of extreme outcomes?

01:36Getting to the Super Bowl.

01:39Winning the Super Bowl.

01:41As it stands right now, would you rather bet Eagles plus 500 to win the NFC or Detroit plus 500 to win the NFC?

01:51Would you rather bet Green Bay plus 900 or Philly plus 500?

01:57And I'm being serious about this one.

01:59Would you rather bet Minnesota plus 1200 or Philadelphia plus 500?

02:06The Eagles have got great players.

02:08The head coach needs a brain transplant.

02:11I think he's ultimately going to hold the team back this season.
