When Nick Sirianni surveyed the wreckage of the ' season, he came to the conclusion that his struggling offense "got a little bit stale" after three years of running basically the same offensive scheme.That's why he fired offensive coordinator Brian Johnson, who spent the previous two years as the quarterbacks coach under offensive coordinator Shane Steichen. Sirianni knew he couldn't have the same person take an objective look at the same old offense next season.It was clear that the only way to fix things was to bring in "fresh ideas.""Whoever the new coordinator is, there's going to be things that they bring that are going to be fresh ideas for us to help our players grow and help our players play at the top level," Sirianni said on Wednesday. "I'm excited about that, the new ideas meshing with some of the old ideas"ADVERTISEMENT "But yeah, to me, we got a little bit stale on offense by the end of the year, and these ideas and this new person coming in is meant to take away the stalene s and https://www.placejersey.com/manchester-city-jersey add the value of what they're adding to the offense."So, who is Sirianni considering in his search for "fresh ideas"? Here's a look at the known candidates so far, and a few others who could be on the radar soon:Kliff KingsburyIf Sirianni is really looking for something new, the 44-year-old former coach would certainly qualify. He brought the Air Raid offense he used at Texas Tech to the NFL, using innovative formations that spread teams out and took advantage of his personnel's speed on the outside. His overall record wasn't good (28-37-1), but he had a top-10 offense in two of his four seasons and helped turn quarterback into a star.The scheme is similar to what Lincoln Riley ran at Oklahoma and now runs at USC, where Kingsbury who has already done a virtual interview with the Eagles was a senior offensive analyst last season. Riley was the coach at in 2019, when his QB was the runner-up for the Heisman Trophy. That quarterback, of course, was .Kellen MooreThe 35-year-old is generally regarded as one of the top playcallers in the NFL thanks to an impre sive four-year run as the offensive coordinator (2019-22), in which he guided the No. 1 offense in the NFL twice and a top-15 offense the other two years.Of course, he was fired by Mike McCarthy before last season and the Cowboys offense didn't mi s a beat without him. And Moore's first season as the offensive coordinator of the was hardly spectacular. They finished 18th in total offense (and 21st in scoring) as the team went 5-12, though injuries to several key offensive players had a lot to do with that.But Moore is still in demand, and his work with in Dallas could be tempting, as Sirianni looks for someone to get Hurts back on track. The Eagles have already requested permi sion to interview him. So have the .Why did the Eagles collapse? Jerrod JohnsonThe Texans quarterbacks coach actually cro sed paths with Sirianni back in 2019 when he joined the as part of the Bill Walsh diversity fellowship. He was promoted to offensive quality control coach the next year and worked under Sirianni, then the Indy offensive coordinator.The 35-year-old Johnson, who has already interviewed with the Eagles, might be a long shot since he has only one year as a position coach. His work with rookie quarterback this past season was obviously spectacular.Johnson is considered a rising star around the league, but perhaps not the desired experience given that Sirianni hinted he'll take a step back and let the offensive coordinator have a little more control next season.Jim Bob CooterIn 2021, when Sirianni was a rookie head coach, Cooter was a consultant on the Eagles' staff. And while that prior relationship would seemingly make him a top candidate to fill the OC vacancy, that might not be the case. One team source said he will be considered, but shouldn't be regarded as the favorite. That's at least partly because he already has an offensive coordinator job, with the Colts under Steichen.Steichen calls the Colts' plays, though, so if Sirianni were to offer that role to Cooter, he might jump. He last called plays for three years in Detroit (2016-18), where he had two offenses rank in the top 16. The also had two winning seasons, which is saying something with that franchise.Was Hurts exposed, more to blame for Eagles lo s than Sirianni? Frank ReichIn some ways, the old Bills quarterback would be a logical candidate. He was the Eagles offensive coordinator under Doug Pederson in 2016-17, which included their Super Bowl season. Moreover, Sirianni was the OC for the first three years of Reich's coaching tenure in Indianapolis.That probably wouldn't qualify him as someone who could bring Sirianni "fresh ideas," however. Also, at age 62, he hinted he might retire after he was fired during his first season as the head coach in Carolina. Even if he doesn't, no one is sure he'd actually want to be a coordinator again.Also, if he was hired as the Eagles offensive coordinator, it could make for a sticky situation because many would consider him a head coach-in-waiting.Eric BieniemyIt appears unlikely Bieniemy will get his long-awaited shot to be a head coach this offseason, and he likely won't be back with the once they hire a new coach to replace Ron Rivera. He certainly would bring a fresh approach to the Eagles offense, running a -style, West Coast scheme one of the most creative and diverse pa sing attacks in the league.The 54-year-old didn't work wonders, though, in his first full year of calling plays last season. The Commanders ranked 24th on offense and some of the veteran players had a tough time adapting to Bieniemy's coaching style. He initially did an impre sive job with until the young quarterback hit a wall late in the season and injuries began decimating an offensive line that was generally terrible all year long.Incidentally, he also played running back for the Eagles in 1999 the final year of his playing career.Zac RobinsonTeams are still trying to raid Sean McVay's staff with the , which has made the 37-year-old pa sing game coordinator and quarterbacks coach a hot commodity this offseason. Robinson hasn't called plays under McVay, but he's obviously well-versed in his innovative, motion-based, dynamic offense. And he also has done a terrific job helping quarterback revive his career.The , , , Steelers and have all pursued Robinson for their offensive coordinator vacancies in the past few weeks.Is Jalen Hurts elite? Joe BradyIt's a good bet Brady won't be available because the are likely to retain him after he served as the interim offensive coordinator for the past two months. But if he is available, the 34-year-old is another rising star on offensive who many believe will soon be a head coach. In fact, the Eagles interviewed him for their head coaching job before they hired Sirianni in 2021.Brady got his coaching start under Sean Payton in New Orleans. He spent one season at LSU where he helped the Tigers and quarterback Joe Burrow win the national championship as their pa sing game coordinator. He then spent two years as the offensive coordinator in Carolina before joining the Bills as the quarterbacks coach.He interviewed for the head coaching job this offseason and will have plenty of suitors for OC jobs if the Bills don't lock him up soon.Mike SullivanAfter the quarterbacks coach took over offensive playcalling late in the season, Pittsburgh won four of seven games and made the playoffs. That included its final three games, including two in which the club topped 30 points. Considering the Steelers were down to at quarterback, the 56-year-old earned praise for a job well done.Though the Saints and Raiders are eying Sullivan as a po sible offensive coordinator, he has mostly spent his career as a QBs coach. He does have four years as an offensive coordinator two with the (2012-13) and two with the (2016-17). His 2012 offense, with Josh Freeman at quarterback, ranked ninth in the NFL. The other three, though, didn't rank higher than 21st.Ralph Vacchiano is the NFC East reporter for FOX Sports, covering the Washington Commanders, Philadelphia Eagles and New York Giants.
