It was no ordinary loss for the Philadelphia Eagles. Not only did they fall to the Jacksonville Jaguars on the final play of a game they practically had in the bag, but Nick Sirianni’s situation is now under even greater scrutiny following the dramatic finish in London.
“I didn’t make the right decision. I lost us that game,” Sirianni told everyone after his team’s loss. From now on, it remains to be seen how things unfold for the Eagles’ head coach.
Decision-making by a coaching staff can be crucial, often determining the outcome of games. This time, the coin landed on Jacksonville’s side, as a clutch kick sealed an epic victory.
A movie-like finish in London
The end of the Eagles vs. Jaguars matchup at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium went down straight to the wire. Right after Philadelphia thought they might pull it off, Ameer Abdullah ripped off a massive 53-yard kickoff return to set up the game’s final drive.
With time expiring, Jacksonville kicker Cam Little stepped up and drilled a clutch 57-yard field goal right as the clock hit zero, snatching a heart-stopping 19-17 walk-off win for the Jags.
