Eagles’ Sirianni Disputes Notion of Blame-Shifting Between Hurts and Brown
Philadelphia Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni disputed the notion that his team’s passing attack woes are due to quarterback Jalen Hurts pointing fingers at wide receiver A.J. Brown. Sirianni believes Brown’s postgame comments, which sparked the drama, were meant to motivate the team to improve their passing game.
Despite the team’s overall success, their passing offense has been a major shortcoming, ranking 31st in the league. Brown has had a solid year, but his recent performance has been subpar. However, the Eagles have continued to win, often comfortably, and Sirianni is confident that there will be no collapse similar to the one they experienced last season.
Sirianni emphasized the team’s focus on improvement and their joy in winning, which he believes will quiet the distractions. He sees no evidence of the 2023 collapse vibes and instead, sees a team that is motivated to get better. The Eagles will look to continue their winning streak on Sunday against the Steelers.
