Nick Sirianni was in usual form following the Philadelphia Eagles’ thrilling victory over the Buffalo Bills on Sunday.
The Eagles head coach was more than just fired up as he walked back to the locker room following the 13-12 win, taking a dig at Bills fans at Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park, N.Y.
“There’s not so much talking from the Buffalo fans anymore. Wooo! Not so much [talking] anymore. Love this s—,” Sirianni mentioned in a video captured by NBC Sports activities Philadelphia as he was strolling up the tunnel.
Eagles vast receiver A.J. Brown was strolling alongside Sirianni and appeared barely amused by his head coach’s antics. It additionally appeared that Sirianni was so fired up within the second that he walked by the doorway to the Eagles’ locker room earlier than turning round.
Sirianni’s postgame second was harking back to one following the Eagles’ win over the Kansas Metropolis Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium in 2023. In that clip, Sirianni yelled, “I do not hear s— anymore, Chiefs followers! See ya!”

Eagles followers are actually hoping for a unique destiny this 12 months, possibly even a Tremendous Bowl repeat, however Sunday’s one-point win wasn’t probably the most convincing. Quarterback Jalen Hurts did not full a move within the second half whereas the Payments scored touchdowns on their ultimate two drives. Payments QB Josh Allen, nonetheless, threw an errant move on the two-point conversion that may’ve received Buffalo the sport.
Sunday marked the second time this season that the Eagles received a sport wherein Hurts did not full a second-half move, narrowly escaping in each victories (the opposite was a 31-25 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 4). Because the Eagles solely put up 190 complete yards of offense on Sunday and dropped to twenty fourth in complete offense, Sirianni took accountability for the crew’s continued offensive woes.
“I’ve to assist. I put it on myself,” Sirianni informed reporters. “I’ve to assist with some issues there, with some issues that I do know we need to get referred to as. [Eagles offensive coordinator] Kevin [Patullo] did job in that first half. However I’ve obtained to assist in that second half a little bit bit, getting some issues that we need to get referred to as there.
“I must do a greater job in that second half,” Sirianni added. “I didn’t do a ok job. I’m all the time going to take a look at myself at first. I don’t know. I gotta take a look at it. I gotta take a look at the tape. We weren’t in a mode of claiming, ‘Hey, 13-0 is sufficient.’ Not in opposition to this quarterback, not in opposition to this offense. So I don’t assume our mindset was ever that. However I gotta do a greater job in that situation. I’ll put that on myself.”
