Philadelphia Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni is getting crushed on X for his controversial decision to go for it on 4th and 1 with 14 seconds remaining in the first half, instead of kicking a field to tie the game at 3.
Sirianni elected to go for a fake tush push, which failed, and the Saints took a 3-0 lead into the locker room.
NextGen Stats "strongly" recommended a field-goal in that situation, which would have given the Eagles a plus-8.1% win probability.
Eagles fans and local media crushed Sirianni on X, as did bigger names like Chris Long, Seth Joyner, Nick Wright and even Bill Simmons.
