Maintaining a healthy work-life balance is critical, particularly for those involved in the high-stress environment of professional sports. Unfortunately for Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo, his problems at work reared their head right at his doorstep.
Vandals egged Patullo's Moorestown, New Jersey home after the Eagles' 24-15 loss to the Chicago Bears on Black Friday, police told ESPN. Video of the incident emerged on social media, and it featured a message from one of the vandals to Patullo that only an Eagles fan could craft: "Get the [expletive] out of Philly. Go Birds."

It's been a nightmare debut season for Patullo the play-caller, as A.J. Brown has repeatedly demanded more targets, Saquon Barkley isn't breaking off many big plays, and Jalen Hurts has struggled with accuracy and aggression downfield. So, in short, not much is working.
Still, Eagles coach Nick Sirianni is sticking by Patullo, as he confirmed Monday the play-calling duties are unchanged following the team's two-game losing streak. The Eagles get another chance to justify their faith in Patullo with Monday night's game against the Los Angeles Chargers, but if the offense sputters again, the heat under the OC's seat will inevitably heat up once again.
