Matt Patricia Assumes Defensive Playcalling Duties for Eagles, Replacing Sean Desai

The Philadelphia Eagles are making changes to their coaching staff ahead of their game against the Seattle Seahawks, with Matt Patricia taking over as the defensive playcaller while Sean Desai moves to the coaches' booth. The Eagles' defense has struggled all season, ranking last in opponent third-down percentage and 30th in red zone defense. The team has given up 30-plus points in three consecutive games. Despite being tied for the top record in the NFL, there has been tension and finger-pointing in the locker room. The Eagles have an easier closing schedule and are looking for leadership to step up and address the team's issues.
