Former Eagles CB Asante Samuel calls out coach Nick Sirianni after brutal London loss: 'You lost the game'
The Philadelphia Eagles flew all the way across the Atlantic Ocean just to hand a victory to the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Unsurprisingly, former All-Pro cornerback Asante Samuel has seen enough.
Eight seconds left, a one-point lead, and a squib kick sealed it.
Instead, Nick Sirianni gifted Jacksonville a live return, setting up an improbable walk-off win.
Speaking on the "Say What Needs To Be Said" show, Samuel put Sunday's 19-17 collapse squarely on Philadelphia's head coach.

"Of course, the team was going to have his back and say, 'No, coach, it's not on you.
It's on us.' But all the coach had to do was call a squib kick.
A squib kick at the end of the game is normal and done all the freaking time." Samuel torched Sirianni for his lack of awareness in crunch time.
"Nick Sirianni must have had a lapse in his brain or something and wasn't paying attention for him to miss out on that situation," Samuel said.
"There's no way your team fights that hard for that long, and you let your team down by not making sure the right call is being made." The blunder erased what should have been a gritty road win.
Down Saquon Barkley and DeVonta Smith to hamstring injuries, Philadelphia took a 17-16 lead with eight seconds left on Jake Elliott's 48-yard field goal.
