Breaking News: Troy Aikman calls out Nick Sirianni on live broadcast as Eagles vs Packers slumps to 16-year low…see more

The Eagles were, unsurprisingly, trying to drain the clock by running the ball late on, but the Packers got a third-down stop with 33 seconds left.

Philly was on Green Bay’s 35-yard line, and many assumed that the Eagles would punt the ball to pin the hosts deep in their own territory. “Now, because they went for it, there’s 27 seconds left, but there’s life for Green Bay,” Buck said.

“They’ve got good field position, and they don’t need much to get (Brandon) McManus into field goal range.” “Sirianni will be answering a lot of questions about that decision on fourth down, but he escapes Lambeau Field with a win.”

“So the end of the game, we are up three and I would have liked to be in a little closer to kick a field goal,” Sirianni said after the game when asked about the decision. “Again, you play every situation a little bit differently, but it was into the wind on that one.

I knew the kick would have to be a little bit lower trajectory of a kick on that particular one. I’ve got a lot of faith in our offense. It didn’t work out on this one. We just didn’t get it, but I stand put on that decision, especially being up three because you go up six, they are still going to need a touchdown.

So we would have ended the game if we would have got that and I’ve got a lot of faith in our guys to be able to do that. But the reason I didn’t kick the field goal, again, being up three, it was just the trajectory into the wind there on that particular one.”
