So let’s talk about it.
Let’s set the stage here for a moment.
But as we’ve seen throughout the history of football, that’s not always the case.
It’s very rarely ever the case.
You think that window lasts forever, but it slams shut aggressively close.
Nick Sirianni never stopped believing in his ways.
But then…complete and utter disaster.
The start of the 2024 was as tumultuous as could be.
That there was still a rift between Nick Sirianni and Jalen Hurts.
There were so many different ways this could go wrong.
There were so many different ways this team could have crashed and burned out yet again.
But Nick Sirianni is all about connection.
Nick Sirianni is all about togetherness.
“you’ve got the option to’t be great without the greatness of others”.
The fans may have doubted him.
The media may have doubted him.
But Nick Sirianni never stopped believing in his ways.
And now here we are 4 months after that bye week.
They went on the most dominant postseason run in NFL history, putting up 145 points in 4 games.
He became the first Eagles head coach to make two Super Bowl appearances.
Nick Sirianni had this team as locked in as humanly possible.
Nick Sirianni had this team as together and connected as humanly possible.
53 players, coaches, training staff, equipment managers, ball boys.
He had the entire organization all rowing in the same direction towards a common goal.
Vince Lombardi, John Madden, Nick Sirianni.
But the thing about Nick Sirianni is that he’s quite literally a Philly sports fan.
The phrase is “opposites attract”, so I guess that would mean that similarities repel each other.
Nick Sirianni and Philly fans were like two magnets going up against one another.
Luckily it’s not up to the fans, and it’s not up to the media.
The Eagles stuck with Nick Sirianni because they trusted his vision.
His players love him.
His coaches love him.
And although it took a little longer than it should have, the city of Philadelphia loves him.
