Two days prior to the Philadelphia Eagles’ Wild Card loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Pro Football Talk’s Mike Florio wrote about how “there’s smoke” to Nick Sirianni being replaced by Bill Belichick.
Obviously, that did not happen. The Eagles are moving forward with Sirianni ... and a significantly revamped coaching staff around him. Belichick appears to be shut out of this year’s coaching cycle.
But just because Sirianni did not get replaced by Belichick doesn’t mean the Eagles were not interested in going that route.
Or that it won’t happen next year.
