Philadelphia Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni is tired of hearing the negativity about quarterback Jalen Hurts. And following the Eagles’ 55-23 drubbing of the Washington Commanders in Sunday’s NFC Championship Game, he was ready to fire back. “How ’bout our quarterback,” Sirianni asked during the NFC trophy presentation. “He’s a stud. I knew he was […]

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni did more than praise God after winning the NFC title. He excitedly asked “How about our QB?” when addressing the grit of Jalen Hurts. The coach and quarterback get one more crack at a Super Bowl ring. They’re heading back to the big game for the second time in […]

When the Philadelphia Eagles take the field against the Washington Commanders in the NFC Championship game, they unquestionably have home-field advantage. The game is taking place at The Linc, the stadium will be filled with Eagles fans no matter how many Commanders come into town, and considering their reputation, South Philly will show out like […]

Heading into the 2024 NFL season, the Philadelphia Eagles made a concerted effort to get younger at cornerback, even if it meant taking a step back from their high water mark in 2022. They released long-time slot cornerback Avonte Maddox – before eventually re-signing him on the cheap – drafted a pair of younger cornerbacks […]

The Philadelphia Eagles survived an injury to quarterback Jalen Hurts and a fourth quarter comeback attempt by the Los Angeles Rams to win their divisional round matchup and advance to the NFC Championship Game against the Washington Commanders. While the Eagles won 28-22, running back Saquon Barkley did the heavy lifting against the Rams as […]

Tell me if you’ve heard this one before: the Philadelphia Eagles recorded a big win to advance their Super Bowl goals, but in doing so, their top wide receiver, AJ Brown, ended the game with a stat line typically reserved for WR3s, not former Pro Bowlers with five 1,000 yard receiving seasons on his resume. […]

When news broke that Nakobe Dean’s third 2024 season had come to an end following an unfortunate patellar tendon injury against the Green Bay Packers, fans of the Philadelphia Eagles openly stumped for Jeramiah Trotter Jr. to take his spot next to Zack Baun. On paper, it makes sense, right? “Axman Jr.” has a Philadelphia […]

Following their divisional-round victory over the Los Angeles Rams, Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts and cornerback Quinyon Mitchell were a bit banged up. And on Monday, head coach Nick Sirianni kept the injury updates rather vague ahead of the NFC Championship Game against the Washington Commanders, per Josh Alper of Pro Football Talk. “We’ll have […]

When the Philadelphia Eagles needed a big defensive play in their snowy Divisional Round showdown against the Los Angeles Rams, it felt like Jalen Carter always stepped up and delivered the goods. He sacked Matthew Stafford early, hurting his ribs in the process, then Peanut punched the ball out of  Kyren Williams’ hands to set […]

With the Philadelphia Eagles’ 28-22 win over the Los Angeles Rams in the Divisional Round of the NFL Playoffs, Nick Sirianni has led his team to 16 total wins on the season when combining the regular season and playoffs.

Nick Sirianni may have to ruminate about Jalen Hurts’ injury, but he can bask in the performance of Saquon Barkley.

And it took Saquon […]

After a week of anticipation, it’s (almost) finally here: the Philadelphia Eagles versus the Los Angeles Rams for a chance to make one step closer to the Super Bowl. Soon, all the talk will be over, the predictions will be pointless, and the action will be at hand, with Jalen Hurts set to prove once […]

As the Philadelphia Eagles prepare to fight tooth and nail against the Los Angeles Rams for a spot in the NFC Championship game, there’s one specter hanging over the team’s heads like something out of Eastern State Penitentiary: Kellen Moore interviewing for head coaching jobs. That’s right, while Nick Sirianni, Vic Fangio, and the rest […]

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts and head coach Nick Sirianni have resolved their strained relationship, which reportedly stemmed from differences in their vision for the team’s offense at the end of last season. The turnaround has been pivotal in the Eagles’ success this year, culminating in a 14-3 record and a spot in the Divisional […]

The Los Angeles Rams cruised past the Minnesota Vikings with a dominant 27-9 victory on Monday night’s wild-card game. Rams head coach Sean McVay offered his thoughts as his team prepares for their upcoming clash with the Philadelphia Eagles. “They’re real,” McVay stressed. “Obviously, we have a familiarity. I got a little bit of a […]

When the Wild Card Weekend cameras captured AJ Brown reading the book Inner Excellence on the sidelines during the Philadelphia Eagles win over the Green Bay Packers, it made certified Philly haters lose their darn minds. Some just knew it was a response to only catching one pass for 10 yards, others took it as […]

When news broke that Nakobe Dean suffered a playoffs-ending torn patellar tendon in the Philadelphia Eagles’ 22-10 win over the Green Bay Packers, it added a bittersweet tinge to what should have been a celebratory occasion in South Philadelphia. Though he may not get all of the accolades as his teammate Zack Baun, who will […]

Though the Philadelphia Eagles and Green Bay Packers had to duke it out for a full 60 minutes to decide which team would advance in the 2025 NFL Playoffs, it certainly felt like the former was in the driver’s seat pretty much from the jump in the lopsided contest. Okay, technically, it took one play […]

In a moment during their Wild Card victory over the Green Bay Packers, Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley made a selfless play that likely won them the game. And following the game, head coach Nick Sirianni had nothing but positive words for the Eagles’ running back, per PHLY’s Zach Berman on X. “Once you […]

It seemed like any time the Philadelphia Eagles needed something big defensively during Wild Card Weekend, Nolan Smith was the one making the play. That’s right, from his big sacks on Jordan Love, one on third-and-3 in the second quarter and the other on first-and-10 on the Packers’ final drive, to his relentless pressure that […]

Though it was an ugly 22-10 win for the Philadelphia Eagles as Saquon Barkley said, beating the Green Bay Packers in the wild-card round of the NFL Playoffs, it seemed to be a trend from the players that they will take the victory nonetheless. As Eagles star Jalen Hurts returned after being in concussion protocol, […]

With the Philadelphia Eagles having secured their spot in the playoffs with multiple game weeks to spare, the opportunity was there for them to rest quarterback Jalen Hurts to make sure that he was going to be in tip-top shape for when the postseason came around. Hurts had been nursing a concussion over the past […]

Before diving headfirst into this topic, it’s important to note that this article is not easy to write. This Philadelphia Eagles team is a true juggernaut. After a disappointing 2024 season, head coach Nick Sirianni has revamped his coaching staff and roster. Some key additions include hiring accomplished offensive coordinator Kellen Moore and signing Pro Bowl running […]

Since signing a one-year, $3.5 million contract to join the Philadelphia Eagles during the offseason, Zack Baun has been experiencing an absolute whirlwind the likes of which he never could have imagined at the NFL level. Originally drafted in the third round out of Wisconsin, Baun was largely used as a rotational rushing outside linebacker […]

As the Philadelphia Eagles gear up for their big Wild Card Round showdown against the Green Bay Packers at Lincoln Financial Field, fan sentiment has been mixed, to say the least, as the excitement surrounding the game has been dimmed somewhat by Kellen Moore’s future. You see, just one year after landing in Philadelphia, Moore […]

On paper, the Philadelphia Eagles are facing off against an above-average defense in the Wild Card Round of the 2025 NFL playoffs. Despite ranking finishing in the NFC North at 11-6, the Packers have found a way to get things done in all facets of the defensive side of the ball, ranking 13th in passing […]

The Green Bay Packers could absolutely beat the Philadelphia Eagles on the road over Wild Card weekend. But if the Eagles are full strength, that’s going to tough sledding for the Pack. Remember, these two teams got together to kick off the 2024 NFL Season in Sao Paulo, Brazil back in September, and the Eagles […]

After being a largely forgotten part of the Philadelphia Eagles’ offense for the vast majority of the 2024 NFL season, few fans expected Jahan Dotson to do much of anything in Week 18 against the New York Giants. One of the few starters who actually played in the regular season finale, Dotson had the game […]

With Jalen Hurts still in concussion protocol and Kenny Pickett on the mend from an aggravated rib injury, Tanner McKee was thrust into action in Week 18 and did a bang-up job for the Philadelphia Eagles, completing 27 of his 41 attempts for 269 yards plus two touchdowns.  McKee looked cool under pressure, showed some […]

The Philadelphia Eagles wrapped up the 2024 NFL season with a 20-13 victory over the New York Giants, setting up a showdown with the Green Bay Packers in the postseason. But right now, star quarterback Jalen Hurts has been in the midst of concussion protocol, and did not play on Sunday against the Giants. He […]

Heading into Week 18, the Philadelphia Eagles are going to look very different from the juggernaut that won 13 of their last 16 games heading into the regular season finale. For one thing, Saquon Barkley will not be on the field, as his pursuit of the single-season rushing has officially been ended by Nick Sirianni […]

After collapsing down the stretch of the 2023 campaign, the Philadelphia Eagles have bounced back resoundingly, posting a 13-3 record and locking up the No. 2 seed in the NFC playoff picture as we head into the final week of the regular season. As a result, questions about head coach Nick Sirianni’s job security have […]

The Philadelphia Eagles dominated the Dallas Cowboys in Week 17 as running back Saquon Barkley became the ninth player to reach 2,000 rushing yards in a season. The veteran RB is in striking distance of breaking Eric Dickerson’s long standing rushing record. However, with a meaningless game against the New York Giants in Week 18, […]

When news broke that Saquon Barkley was not going to play in the Philadelphia Eagles’ Week 18 regular season finale against the New York Giants, the one person fans wanted to hear from – save SB 2K himself – was head coach Nick Sirianni. Now granted, the decision was controversial, to say the least, with […]

Heading into Week 18’s game against the New York Giants, Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley is 101 yards away from becoming the NFL’s all-time leading single-season rusher. When Week 18 comes to an end, Barkley will almost certainly still be 101 yards short of Eric Dickerson’s record, as Nick Sirianni has made the controversial […]

When Kenny Pickett had to leave Week 17 after aggravating his rib injury, the Philadelphia Eagles had to turn to Tanner McKee to close out the game. The results, as it turned out, were very good, with the pride of Stanford completing three of his four passing attempts for 54 yards and two touchdowns. Discussing […]

When Tanner McKee connected with AJ Brown for his first career touchdown during the Philadelphia Eagles’ Week 17 win over the Dallas Cowboys, it was a big deal for the player affectionately known as the “Morman Missle.” Originally drafted in the sixth round out of Stanford back in 2023, McKee patiently waited his turn for […]

The Philadelphia Eagles are locked into the No. 2 seed in the NFC, but they have a decision to make with running back Saquon Barkley, who is 99 yards away from breaking Eric Dickerson’s rushing record. Will Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni play Barkley against his old team, the New York Giants, to let him […]

While there are a lot of ways to describe Philadelphia Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni, passion is undoubtedly one of them. One of the winningest coaches in the NFL since he entered the league, Sirianni wears his heart on his sleeve, even when some fans want him to chill the heck out. And for the […]
