That familiar fire was back on the Eagles sideline on Sunday. We have all seen the scenes before. Coach Nick Sirianni was locked in. His face? It was turning a shade of red usually reserved for a late-game replay challenge. However, this particular scene featured a spirited debate with the men in stripes. And the home crowd buzzed like a beehive.
It all began with a controversial missed field goal. An erroneous whistle blew during Jake Elliott’s 58-yard attempt, a kick that ultimately doinked off the upright. FOX rules expert Dean Blandino stated the Eagles should have gotten a retry.
