The Eagles are 13-1 and have clinched a playoff spot already, with the NFC East title in reach this week.

So, Brandon Graham is not going to second-guess any of the coaching decisions.

Nick Sirianni and the Eagles coaching staff came under fire for their play-calling in Sunday’s win over the Bears. Running back Miles Sanders was basically written out of the game plan until late in the first half, not getting a carry until 24 minutes into the game.

Ultimately, Sanders got 11 carries for 43 yards on the ground. Graham was asked on “Angelo Cataldi and the Morning Team” if it was fair for Eagles fans to criticize the play-calling.

“You know what, I’m going to let coach do what he’s been doing,” Graham responded. “We’ve been winning. I understand you’re not going to like everything, but they see certain things and the game plan is the game plan until you have to adjust at halftime.

“I felt like as the game went on we adjusted. I know how it is in Philly, people want us to run the ball, but I know that I trust the coaches. Whatever has been working, I’m not going to question it now.”

The Eagles’ success thus far doesn’t mean Sirianni or anyone else in the organization is above criticism. But to Graham’s point, it’s tough to argue with the results so far.
