Eagles players back Sirianni in NFLPA grades, Offensive Coordinator tells a different story

Eagles fans have heard it for two years now. Nick Sirianni is on the hot seat. The locker room is fractured. The culture is slipping. The message isn’t landing.

Meanwhile, inside the building? The players just handed him an A.

The leaked 2025 NFLPA report card tells a story that national talking heads refuse to acknowledge: the guys who actually suit up on Sundays believe in Sirianni. Not just tolerate him. Believe in him.

And if you want the real smoking gun from that survey, it’s not even Sirianni’s grade.

It’s the offensive coordinator’s.

Eagles Players Back Sirianni — Loudly

Via ESPN and Kalyn Kahler, here is how the Eagles ranked in each category of the NFLPA survey.
The locker room is outdated. Seems like the guys want a plane with more first-class-type seating. A little surprised that Nick rates ahead of Jeffrey and Howie. pic.twitter.com/ya87CVXUIG

Sirianni received an A from the players. Higher than Jeffrey Lurie. Higher than Howie Roseman. Higher than most of the organization.

For a head coach who gets treated like he’s coaching for his life every September, that’s not just solid — it’s emphatic.

Players don’t hand out A’s because they like a guy’s press conferences. They hand them out because they trust him. Because they feel supported. Because the culture works.

The defensive coordinator got an A+. Special teams got an A. Position coaches graded out as A- across the board. Strength staff? A-. Training staff? A.

For all the noise outside the NovaCare Complex, the Eagles’ locker room clearly doesn’t think the head coach is the issue.

The Eagles Offensive Coordinator Grade Tells the Real Story

Now let’s talk about the grade that matters.

The offensive coordinator? C+.

While the rest of the coaching staff is pulling A’s, the guy running the offense barely cracked average. And this is coming from the players, the ones who lived it every day.

All year long, the national conversation bent over backwards to avoid blaming Kevin Patullo. It was execution. It was injuries. It was vibes. It was literally anything except the guy designing and calling the offense.

Yet when the anonymous survey comes out, the grades line up exactly with what we all watched on Sundays.

You don’t get a C+ in a room full of A’s by accident.

If you’re still arguing that last season’s offensive struggles had nothing to do with the coordinator, you’re ignoring the one group whose opinion actually matters: the players.

And they told you everything you needed to know.

Eagles Culture Is Stronger Than the Narrative

There are issues. The locker room facilities graded poorly. Team travel got an F — which honestly explains why the Eagles come out angry on the road. Those things need fixing.

But culturally? Structurally? From a coaching standpoint?

The Eagles are in a good place.

Free agents see this stuff. Agents see this stuff. When players consistently grade leadership highly, that matters. Stability matters. Trust matters.

Sirianni getting an A while the offensive coordinator lagged behind isn’t some coincidence. It’s clarity.

The players separated the head coach from the problem.

And now, so should everyone else.

The outside world can keep manufacturing hot-seat narratives every August. Inside the building, the Eagles just made it clear who they believe in.
