Eagles’ Nick Sirianni One Win Away From NFL History

The Philadelphia Eagles will try to clinch the NFC East title on Saturday, and head coach Nick Sirianni has a shot at some personal history as well.

Sirianni is in his fifth season leading the Eagles as the team's head coach. Sometimes, he has been a polarizing figure among the fanbase, but there is no denying the fact that he knows how to win games. So far in his head coaching career, Sirianni boasts a 57-25 record in the regular season. That's good for a .695 winning percentage, which is the fifth-best of all time among head coaches, behind Guy Chamberlin, John Madden, Vince Lombardi, and George Allen.

If the Eagles can take down the Washington Commanders on Saturday, it will be his 58th win as the team's head coach. That would break a tie with Hall of Famer Paul Brown for the second-most wins as a coach in NFL history in their first five seasons, as pointed out by Philadelphia anchor Jeff Skversky on X.

"Eagles HC Nick Sirianni will move past Hall of Famer Paul Brown for 2nd most regular season wins by a head coach in his first 5 seasons in NFL history with a win Saturday at Commanders," Skversky wrote on X.

The current record is out of reach for Sirianni. Longtime San Francisco 49ers head coach George Seifert holds the record with 62 wins through his first five seasons leading the franchise from 1989 through 1993. Over that stretch, Seifert led the 49ers to a 62-18 record.

Right now, Sirianni boasts a 57-25 record as the Eagles' head coach.

There was a time after the 2023 season when it wasn't clear if Sirianni had a long-term future with the franchise. The Eagles collapsed in 2023 and then started the 2024 season with a 2-2 record. The noise was loud, but Philadelphia turned things around and won Super Bowl LIX. Now, Sirianni clearly isn't going anywhere anytime soon.

Some may not like the way he operates, but this guy is a winner.
