The Philadelphia Eagles made a major shakeup in their defensive coaching ranks by handing over defensive play-calling to senior assistant Matt Patricia. Despite a strong first half against the Seattle Seahawks, the defense let down in the game's biggest moment, resulting in a 20-17 defeat. Coach Nick Sirianni stated that he made the decision in the best interest of the team, as the defense had been struggling. The Eagles now have a 10-4 record and are in a virtual tie with the Dallas Cowboys for the NFC East lead.
