Schefter Drops Eagles Tease + Sixers Might Be Back

In partnership with

The Chase continues. Adam Schefter sent Eagles fans into a frenzy this week after suggesting Nick Sirianni could end up calling plays if the team doesn’t find the right offensive coordinator. Reality check: that’s not happening. Sirianni has shown time and again he doesn’t want that role, and the Eagles aren’t about to repeat past mistakes by heading into a season without a true OC. Despite the panic, all signs still point to Philly landing a coordinator and moving forward with structure on offense.

Meanwhile, across town, Sixers fans finally have something to feel good about again. Joel Embiid looks like his old self, moving better than he has in years and reminding everyone why he’s the franchise centerpiece. After a brutal stretch of injuries and frustration, Embiid’s resurgence has the fanbase celebrating and even thanking the surgeon who helped bring him back. For the first time in a while, there’s real optimism brewing in Philly basketball.

Let’s get into it.
