Key Highlights

  • Lurie.""It's too soon to think about that."Jalen Hurts, when asked if he wants Kevin Patullo back as offensive coordinator.
  • Says he puts his trust in Roseman, Sirianni and Lurie.
  • Tim McManus (@Tim_McManus) January 12, 2026 Hurts talked instead of finding a "home base" for the offense next season, essentially an identity that never materialized.
  • The Eagles usually had one solid half in a game and struggled in the other -- such as in the loss to the 49ers, in which they blew a halftime lead and kicked only two field goals in the second half. What kind of home base does Hurts envision?"We've got time to figure it out," Hurts said. Hurts even had two games this season in which he failed to complete a pass in the second half.
  • That should be almost impossible for any NFL quarterback, much less the Super Bowl MVP."It was a challenging year," Hurts said. Hurts couldn't get on track against an injury-depleted 49ers defense, and he threw incomplete into double coverage on fourth down when the Eagles still had a chance to win, ending Philadelphia's bid to repeat. Saquon Barkley rushed for 865 fewer yards than last season, when Kellen Moore was in charge of Philadelphia's offense.
