None of these outlets carries a lean label. Times come from each outlet's own feed and show when we saw its headline, not necessarily when it first published elsewhere.

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni publicly accepted responsibility following his team's 19-17 defeat against the Jacksonville Jaguars in London on Sunday, according to reports from ESPN and NBC Sports. Both outlets highlighted Sirianni's postgame remarks admitting that his tactical choices in the final seconds caused the loss.

According to NBC Sports, the pivotal sequence began with eight seconds remaining when Philadelphia took a 17-16 lead on a 48-yard field goal. Rather than conceding a touchback, Sirianni directed the kickoff into the designated landing zone. Jaguars returner Ameer Abdullah fielded the ball at the 8-yard line and ran it back 53 yards, enabling kicker Cam Little to convert a game-winning 57-yard field goal as time expired.

Addressing reporters afterward, Sirianni stated that he failed to make the proper call and fully owned the misstep, according to NBC Sports. He noted that the mistake would stay with him just like costly errors from his playing days, while acknowledging that he had previously studied similar late-game scenarios under the league's updated kickoff guidelines.
