Just a quick note, the stat in the beginning mentioned six weeks (which is technically true) but later you mention 6 scoreless first quarters but the Eagles have only played 5 games due to the bye.

Am i the only one who completely DNGAF about Siri’s on-field demeanor? Some people are ice-cold, some people rely on emotion to excel. The idea that Siriani has to fit into some standard mold makes no sense to me.

As for fan – screw that. Too many people think that buying a ticket entitles them to say whatever they want, without any repercussions. A few Darwin candidates have even tried that this year with UFC fighters (with predictable outcomes). But then, I actually LIKED Tie Domi climbing the penalty box to try to punch the a-hole fan (sadly, a fellow Flyers fan) who poured a beverage on him. Fans need to understand that supporting a team doesnt give them carte blanche to do whatever they want. Abuse someone, dont whine like a baby if they chirp back at you.

I’ll join you in that. I couldn’t care less what Sirianni does at the end of a game, even if it seems like it’s not likely to make him any friends. Honestly, it doesn’t matter what he says there. It matters what happens on the field. And there’s plenty of room to criticize him for the way the Eagles have played. But as to what his haircut signifies or whether he should have his kids with him at the podium, who cares? Any reporter who fixates on those things (this is not aimed at Zach in any way) loses me in complaining about Sirianni’s maturity, because making a big deal about them is not exactly sophisticated sports reporting.

Re the game itself – it seemed as though the Eagles called a fairly conservative, run-heavy game plan yesterday. I wonder why – were they trying to keep it simple and reduce turnovers, and figured a toothless Browns team would be a good opponent for that?

Sirianni’s personality has always been more tolerable when we’re winning.
