Nick Sirianni Says Sean Mannion Will Continue to Call Playes Following Fourth Consecutive Loss

"I have a high confidence level in everybody in this building," Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni said on Monday when asked about his team's struggling offense. Sean, that's why I hired him, the position coaches, the players. Right now, we're in a rough spot as we know. It is about controlling the things that you can control in this moment and figuring out what the next steps are."
Philadelphia Eagles Offensive Crisis by the Numbers
Philadelphia’s offense has sputtered under the first-year coordinator. The team was held to under 250 yards for the fourth straight game, had under 40 rushing yards in consecutive games for the first time since 2005, punted on each of the team’s first five possessions for the first time under Sirianni, and has scored under 25 points in every game this season and in eight straight dating back to last season.
Nick Sirianni Addresses Sean Mannion’s Playcalling Role
Even with all those putrid numbers, Sirianni is sticking with Mannion as the team's playcaller.
"Yes," Sirianni stated when asked if Mannion will still be calling plays going forward.
Sirianni told reporters on Sunday that everything was on the table, but stopped short of changing his play-caller.
"Everything is on the table," Sirianni acknowledged. "Again, I'll do everything we can do. Our coaches will do everything we can do to help us win football games. As far as who's coaching the positions and who's calling the plays, that will remain the same. We're looking for answers, and we're looking for solutions."
