Overview
- Stoutland, speaking on Jason and Travis Kelce’s New Heights podcast on Monday, said the Eagles’ problems were basic execution and calling the wrong plays into the wrong looks.
- He said the short‑yardage quarterback sneak known as the “tush push” tailed off because a change at center disrupted timing, turning what he called “organized mass” into “just mass.”
- Philadelphia’s offense averaged 22.3 points per game in 2025, ranking 19th, as drives stalled in key spots despite a roster packed with proven talent.
- The team responded by firing offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo and hiring Sean Mannion, while Stoutland left after 13 seasons and said he will take a year away from coaching.
- ESPN reporting cited by multiple outlets said late‑season run‑game tweaks were installed without what Stoutland viewed as proper consultation, highlighting communication and coordination issues inside the staff.
