Nick Sirianni entered the 2024 NFL season on the hot seat after Philadelphia lost six of its last seven games, including a loss to Tampa Bay in the NFC Wild Card game. What followed was the dismissal of both coordinators, who were replaced by Kellen Moore (OC) and Vic Fangio (DC).
The Eagles made a few moves in free agency, including signing Saquon Barkley to a three-year contract. Howie Roseman landed two stars with the first two draft picks and the Birds entered the season with high expectations.
A 2-2 start led to talk that Sirianni would need to be fired, but since then, Philadelphia has won just five straight games with both the offense and defense playing at a high level. Former Eagles star Fletcher Cox was a guest on Up with Adams and told Kay Adams that Sirianni only wins.

During his tenure as head coach, Sirianni has led Philadelphia to five winning streaks in five or more games. No other NFL team has recorded more five-game winning streaks since the 2022 season. Sirianni's .683 winning percentage (41-19) is the ninth-best career mark in NFL history and ranks 2nd among active head coaches, behind only Jim Harbaugh (.692, 50-22-1). It is the highest winning percentage ever by an Eagles head coach and ranks third in the NFL as of 2021, behind Andy Reid (.767, 46-14) and Sean McDermott (.717, 43-17). Philadelphia has the third-best home winning percentage (.762, 16-5) in the league since 2022, trailing only Buffalo (.857, 18-3) and Kansas City (.773, 17-5) over that span. . Including the playoffs, the Eagles are 11-3 (.786) in their last 14 games at Lincoln Financial Field.
