Sources: Eagles fired offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo.
Eagles now will be going on their fifth OC in five years, with two of them leaving for head coaching jobs.
Eagles 2nd half drives last 3 games:

#Eagles
Here is what I would be trying to do over the next 10 days to fix the Eagles:
Offense
1โฃ Demote Kevin Patullo. The offense is predictable, stale, and can't even get calls in on time.
2โฃ Call a ton of empty - it forces defenses to declare coverage structure and pressure locations pre-snap. It opens up the QB run game. It hurts the Saquon run game, but that's in the trash heap right now anyway.
3โฃ Literally never put a 2nd TE on the field. Run 11 personnel and spread the field.
4โฃ Run Jalen Hurts 8-10 times a game. The QB run game infuses life into an offense.
5โฃ Put rules in for scramble drill and bench WRs who don't follow them or who show a lack of effort on routes.
6โฃ Don't call a zone run play that doesn't have a QB read element in it. Major in gap scheme runs.
7โฃ Throw the ball downfield. Hurts was 3-4 passing on throws of 20+ air yards and also drew a penalty flag on a 5th attempt.
8โฃ Figure out if Matt Pryor or Fred Johnson can play LG until Landon Dickerson comes back.
9โฃ Either call pass plays from pistol/UC or ditch them entirely and go back to all plays being from shotgun
Defense
This one is less concerning to me. Getting outphysicaled and embarrassed sucks, and I don't think the missing players excuse that, but I generally trust Fangio. You can hide a bad CB2 between DeJean and Q. You have to get Mukuba to stop busting so many coverages, though, and that should come with time from the rookie.
I would trade a day 3 pick for a DT. Byron Young simply shouldn't be playing snaps for this football team. I don't think an EDGE rusher really helps you unless you go after a big name.
For the most part, I think getting healthy and more reps for Mukuba will fix most of the defense.
They did a study on 1,500 ppl and how social media impacted them. They discovered every social app except for YouTube causes mental health issues. Instagram was the most damaging.
