Nick in Philly

[indyagent17]

It’s amazing they are only 10 minutes from taking his team to the superbowl. Best Offensive Line great weapons around Hurts. The defense is really solid too. With what is considered to be by Eagles fans the worst Owner in the league in Lurie they had and continue to have a terrific season. It’s only Nicks second season it really shows how poorly we underestimated him.

What exactly were we supposed to do with Siriani?

[holeymoley99]

I think we valued him quite a bit, we couldnt fire his mentor to elevate him,he wouldnt have even accepted as we know how much he loves Reich. Im happy for him and Pascal too

Many forget….   Sirianni started poorly and slowly in Philly.   His intro news conference was considered terrible and I’m probably being generous.  
 

Then the regular season started, and the Eagles I believe started 1-3 and 2-5.   
 

There were plenty of stories that wondered if Sirianni would finish his first year as the HC?   But his team turned it around going I think 7-3 and they made the playoffs.   Then they won 13 games this regular season?   Or was it 14? 
 

Suddenly, Sirianni is highly thought of.  Hey, I’m glad for him.  I’m just saying he started badly and almost didn’t get a chance to show what he can do.  Sometimes a little patience goes a long way.

 The Eagles have been playing well but they had the second easiest schedule in the league, beat a so-so Giants team and a SF team that was down to its 4th string qb. 
  I hope KC wins for 3 reasons:

1. I love the way Mahomes plays 

2. I hate the Eagles (the laundry, not the players).

3. I’m dying to see somebody try and lift Andy up on their shoulders.

WRs - 2 #1 WRs, one through a trade

OL - top 3 in the league at least 

QB - evolution of Hurts as a passer has been amazing 

 

DL - Hargrave, Suh, Joseph all great FA signings to add to an already deep outstanding DL

LBs - key FA signing with Haason Reddick that changed everything 

CBs - key FA signings in Bradberry and C J Gardner Johnson in the slot who can possibly shut down Kelce to go with Darius Slay

 

They have talent at every level of offense and defense. If the Chiefs pull this off, it would be one heck of a coaching job that would have to be executed.

 

Its night and day, the Eagles talent vs Colts talent. To say Sirianni had help would be understating it.

The Eagles . I want Sirianni and Zach Pascal to get rings.  

 

Like watching Mahomes play, but still prefer Philly to win.  The Eagles are the more rounded team as far as talent goes.

I think Sirianni has a lot to do with that, not only his team.

The eagles have superior talent compared to the colts. Their FO went out and made great trades and free agent aquisitions. They showed how to build a super bowl roster unlike Ballard.

Yrs, that was my point.   Let’s give Sirianni credit.   I think he’s earned it.

I agree that the Eagles are the better team. Great players at almost every position.  I think they will win but I am not rooting for them.

  Hmm…yet they beat those inferior Colts by 1 point? A game in which (by the way), the Colts would have won if not for a missed face mask.

   I’m not saying the Eagles don’t have a darn good team but consider their schedule and who they’ve played in the playoffs (Giants and 5th string QB 49ers) .

    If they go out and beat KC by multiple scores, my hats off to them. Until then, I think they are a bit overrated, especially here in Philly.

Nick Sirianni landed a "dream job" in Philadelphia.

 

Great owner and GM.

 

A team that has improved it's roster during his time there.

 

Not a significant amount of injuries this year.

 

Best wishes to the Eagles - I predict they dominate the Super Bowl and hoist their second Lombardi.

That bears repeating. Owners (and fans) are often ridiculously impatient. Some of the best coaches and players ever had rocky starts.
