Sirianni quite didn’t have any good options at the time due to winning the fucking Super Bowl. From reports it seemed the plan was to promote nussemeir since he’d called plays before, albeit at the college level, and that blew up when he followed Moore to New Orleans, and they decided to hire Patullo due to him being with the team for so long and knowing how the offense worked. Keep in mind Sirianni also hired Kellen Moore, Shane Steichen, Vic fangio, and Jonathan Gannon
