Eagles Losing Both Coordinators a 'First-World Problem' After Super Bowl

While some think it could be the downfall of the Philadelphia Eagles this season, one NFL.com writer believes the departure of two coordinators is among the league's overblown storylines this offseason.

If a Philadelphia Eagles fan loses connection to their provider during a game, that's a problem, but it's what many would call a first-world problem as some populations in the world have much bigger issues to worry about. 

And according to NFL.com, Philly's loss of offensive coordinator Shane Steichen and defensive coordinator Jonathan Gannon are in that same category, and any worries surrounding their departures are overblown.

"(Losing Steichen and Gannon) can't go overlooked. But it can be overblown, and I think that's what's happening here," NFL.com writes. " ... If losing both coordinators is the Eagles' biggest worry now, these should be considered first-world problems for an NFL team to have."

Reports of a team's demise have come prematurely in years past, and NFL.com seems to think that's what's happening with Philadelphia right now. 

The opinion is also backed by the fact the Eagles' offense is coach Nick Sirianni's baby, and wasn't Steichen's. 

With Sirianni still in place, the offensive tone should remain mostly the same, and may even get a bit more diversified with a new coordinator running the show, especially one the site speculates may draw head coaching interest himself very soon. 

On defense, the unit could be even better under new defensive coordinator Sean Desai.

So if you're worried about the loss of both Philadelphia coordinators, don't be.

If this opinion is correct, those departures are more about the strength of what the Eagles have built in this version of the team, and not about the weakening of it through the NFL poaching its coordinators.
