Kevin Patullo received a daunting task when the Philadelphia Eagles named him their offensive coordinator for the 2025 season, succeeding Kellen Moore. Six games in, however, he has become public enemy no. 1 from angry fans who want him gone.

On Thursday, the defending Super Bowl champions hit a new low when they suffered a 17-34 defeat at the woeful New York Giants. Much of the blame went to Patullo, who watched as Jalen Hurts and AJ Dillon turned the ball over in succession in the fourth quarter:

"He’s Brian Johnson 2.0," one compared.
"I swear, I think Kevin Patullo be working for the other team," another posited.
"If he is still coach by the bye, we will have a 2023 repeat," another warned.

Besides Hurts, Saquon Barkley was also mediocre, failing to see the end zone for the second straight week.

Tight end Dallas Goedert was the Eagles' leading receiver, catching nine passes for 110 yards and a touchdown to extend his scoring streak to four games, while primary wideout AJ Brown had his best game since Week 3, covering 80 yards on six grabs.

Insider says Kevin Patullo does not deserve all the blame for Eagles' offensive woes

It is no secret that the Eagles' offense has seen a noticeable decline under Kevin Patullo.

There is AJ Brown's widely-covered alleged spat with Jalen Hurts over the diminution of his role, but Saquon Barkley has not helped either, with him failing to reproduce the hundred-yard heroics that made him the 2024 Offensive Player of the Year. The offensive line has also taken a hit, especially with the absences of guards Landon Dickerson (currently injured) and Mekhi Becton (now a Charger).

But for NBC Sports Philadelphia's Reuben Frank, not every mistake can be blamed on the offensive coordinator:

"You see big plays that get called back by penalties, potential big plays where Jalen Hurts and the receiver just don’t connect, possible big plays that are wiped out by a breakdown on the offensive line. ...If he makes a successful play call and the play isn’t successful for whatever reason, that’s not on him. That’s poor execution or just a great play by the other team."

And of course, head coach Nick Sirianni must also shoulder some of the blame, this being his system:

"When you’re an offensive head coach and the offense isn’t functioning, you certainly deserve a share of the blame. ...If these issues continue through the bye week, I wouldn’t be shocked if Sirianni does make a change. But I don’t believe fixing the offense is as simple as changing coordinators. Yeah, Patullo could be better. So could everybody else."

The team's next game will be at the Minnesota Vikings on October 19. Kickoff is at 1 pm ET on Fox.
