Eagles coach Nick Sirianni said the team wasn't up to snuff on Thursday night, and he included himself in that analysis.

Nick Sirianni keeps it real when discussing the Eagles' decision to move on from Vikings' cornerback Isaiah Rodgers over the offseason.

The coach indicated that offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo will continue to call plays. Sirianni acknowledged that the team's struggles on first and second downs are part of the problem.

But still. They have a very good roster. They have very good players on both sides of the ball. Sirianni’s resume is remarkable for a fifth-year coach — a Lombardi, two Super Bowl appearances, four straight playoff runs, 70 percent winning percentage, the two-longest winning streaks in Eagles history.

There was plenty of chatter about the state of the Eagles after they lost two straight games, but they bounced back with a win over the Vikings in Week 7.

Earlier this week, there were discussions about refocusing and resetting. Kevin Patullo burned some midnight oil. Every Eagles coach, to a man, discussed the dedication being given to improving and righting the ship. Nakobe Dean told media members, including CBS Sports' Jeff Kerr, that Nick Sirianni had canceled walkthroughs on Wednesdays.
