This would be the most Philadelphia thing ever. The Eagles come clawing all the way back from a 2-5 start to pull even at 7-7. The coach is evolving his approach and calling some great games. Then the COVID-ravaged Washington Football Team comes to town and now Sirianni is in the COVID protocol on a SHORT WEEK with the Giants coming to town.

Just watch. More players are going to test positive this week. It’s going to be stupid. I guarantee it.

edit – passing game coordinator Kevin Patullo will be the in-game coach if Sirianni isn’t cleared by Sunday, but Shane Steichen is expected to call the plays
