Philadelphia Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni didn’t hide his emotions after his team got off to a hot start against the New York Giants in the NFC divisional round on Saturday night.
The red-hot Giants came to Philly to face an Eagles team with a not-quite-100-percent quarterback Jalen Hurts, but Sirianni’s squad had no trouble jumping out to a 14-0 lead by the end of the first quarter.
Sirianni has no trouble showing what he thinks of any given NFL moment on the sideline, and you could easily tell how hyped he was to see the Eagles playing so well at such a pivotal moment.

Sirianni also found an incredibly fascinating way to fire up his team before Saturday’s playoff game.
I’m told Nick Sirianni in the team meeting last night showed the Eagles the rap battle from Eminem‘s 8 Mile movie and the players loved it

It was clear that Sirianni and the Eagles were, ahem, losing themselves to the moment to start the game. You could even argue that they were owning it, and weren’t ever going to want to let it go.
After all, they only had one shot to advance to the NFC championship game, and they didn’t want miss their chance to go. This opportunity could come once in a lifetime. So, they’d better.
They’ll hope to see more excited Sirianni glimpses as the NFL playoffs continue.
