Nick Sirianni Deserves A Chance From Fans In 2024
I have said many times that Nick Sirianni did a very poor job in 2023. He is the main reason the Eagles collapsed and then couldn’t pull the nose up. All the heat he has taken about last year is fair. The Eagles have zero path to the heights we all expect if he doesn’t do better in 2024.
I do think the rhetoric is going too far now though now that OTAs have begun. Sirianni has a chance to turn things around, and I am willing to give him the chance.
Nick Sirianni Was Not The Only Problem
Nick Sirianni was not the only guy to have a bad year last year. In fact, he may not have had the worst season. Howie Roseman was horrible in 2023. The defense was bad because of bad players that he picked. Bringing back James Bradberry was a horrible decision. Letting TJ Edwards leave was a terrible move.
While Sirianni takes the heat for it, Howie is the one who made the decision to fire Sean Desai. The defense got significantly worse after Roseman hired Matt Patricia even though the schedule got easier. We all knew it then, and we know it now. Yet, we have forgiven Howie for his many failures. Why can’t we give Sirianni a shot?
Jalen Hurts took a step back in 2023. He wasn’t bad, but he wasn’t at the MVP level he was in 2022. He went from 6 interceptions to 15. Remember when he and AJ Brown freelanced at the end of the Seattle game? His perfect leadership record up to that point took a hit. The cliches he normally used stopped working. He also couldn’t lead them out of the issues, just like Sirianni. We all believe in Hurts still, as we should.
I am not saying that Nick Sirianni is going to bounce back. He didn’t do a good job last year and will have to adjust to being the CEO coach. He deserves an open mind though. He has the same chance to bounce back as Howie and Hurts has. I am rooting for him, and you should be too.

The Club Tyrone Roster: All 11 Current Members
Justin Anderson
He is the Club Tyrone OG. Who amongst us can’t remember the great defensive effort he gave against Dwyane Wade? You can’t? Well, it happened, and it was magical. He is tough player who needs to be back in the NBA.
Jordan Mailata
Another OG of Club Tyrone. He became a member in 2019 before he ever played for the Eagles. What is not to like about a guy that size coming from Australia trying to play in the NFL? The fact that he has become a massive part of the Eagles’ future wasn’t expected, but we are glad it happened.
Ranger Suarez
Nobody in the world is cooler than Ranger Suarez. When they ask him to start, he performs. When he has been asked to come out of the bullpen in the postseason, he performs. He plays smooth defense, and his heart rate rarely rises. He is the fastest climbing members of the roster.
Josh Sweat
The best sack celebration in the NFL is in Club Tyrone. A Super Bowl champion who has become a starting stalwart with the team. I was worried that he wouldn’t be back when the talk was about his and Reddick’s exit. Sweat will bounce back this year.
Mickey Moniak
The best Mickey in the history of the MLB. Moniak is still just 26 years old. Don’t count out the former #1 overall pick out. He hit 14 home runs in 2023. Plus, he netted you Brandon Marsh in a trade.
Edmundo Sosa
This is a guy who brings a lot of energy. He has been very good since he joined the Phillies. Some are calling for him to play more, but either way he is a very valuable piece. He brings joy when he plays.
Joel Farabee
Farabee is currently the only Flyer in the club. He has not yet gotten to the level that I thought he would. I still think he has 30 goals in him. Maybe 2024-2025 is the year he takes the step.
Adam Haseley
This one may have been a miss. At the time he was a 1st round pick who got to the majors quickly. Now we see that while he has a decent glove, his bat is just not up to par.
Johan Rojas
Last season he went from a complete afterthought in the minors to a starter is center field in the postseason. He still needs to grow at the plate, but he plays plus defense. The change in mindset to be better defensively started with him.
Kody Clemens
Kody with a K is the newest member. I didn’t think he would be such a heady guy, but it is impossible not to like him. He has had a big shadow hanging over him from his dad forever and he has persevered. I don’t even mind that his name is spelled incorrectly.
Cameron Payne
Fans were skeptical when the Sixers acquired Cam Payne. Fans took a liking to Patrick Beverly even though he is very poor at basketball now. Payne came in and played well for the Sixers, while Beverly now must serve a suspension IF he is in the league in 2024. I hope they bring Payne back.
