Eagles coach Nick Sirianni is left in tears during National Anthem at the start of Super Bowl LVII

Emotions have finally caught up with Philadelphia Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni ahead of this year’s Super Bowl after he was seen crying flood of tears during the National Anthem.

The 41-year-old, who’s only in his second coaching season in the NFL, has led the Eagles to their second Super Bowl game in 11 years after Philadelpbhia beat Tom Brady and the England Patriots back in 2018. 

That was the team’s first Vince Lombardi Trophy in franchise history.

This year, Sirianni and his players will look to emulate their 2018 success against the Kansas City Chiefs after having gone 16-3 overall during the regular season and NFL playoffs.

Last month, Sirianni’s three children stole the show at Philly’s NFC title postgame press conference by imitating their father’s mannerisms.

As Philadelphia’s head coach was touching base with reporters on his side’s 7-31 win against the San Francisco 49ers, his daughter, Taylor, did her best impression of her father, polished off with several hand gestures. 

On more than one occasion, however, Sirianni had to take his head coaching Eagles cap off and show his paternal side by telling his children on how to behave. 

What’s more is that Taylor was told to stop her shenanigans on numerous occasions and her reaction to one of her father’s warnings was utterly hilarious when she seemed ultimately defeated by pouting in front of cameras. 

‘We have so many meetings about that of what we’re going to do in these scenarios. Calls we might call, what we would call if we’ve already called that and everything like that. So… hey you guys needs to stop,’ Sirianni said, warning his kids to stop their horseplay once more.

‘Taylor, stop it,’ he then said, who was trying to talk back to him, before telling his two young boys: ‘Hey, stop it, stop it. Look forward and stop.’ 

Meanwhile, ahead of Super Bowl LVII, Sirianni praised NFL coach and mentor Frank Reich for his development as a head coach after having spent three years as the offensive coordinator for the Indianapolis Colts under Reich from 2018-20.

They also worked together as assistants for three years with the Chargers. 

‘Frank would always say this to me: ”No man suddenly becomes different than his cherished thoughts and habits.” Meaning no one suddenly becomes different. You are who you’ve been the whole time,’ Sirianni said.

‘This is a bigger game than this or this. They’ve all been big. I show a picture to the team every week of a mountain. There’s the top of the mountain, you can see it, but the guy’s vision is just on the steps right there [ahead]. Your focus doesn’t change because the situation or the game around you or the opponent changes.’

‘You still focus on one step at a time. The higher you climb on the mountain … it gets windier, the conditions get tougher, it gets a little steeper, it gets a little harder to breathe.’

‘So now what an unbelievable time to just focus on the next step and don’t look up.’ 

The Eagles will battle the Kansas City Chiefs from Glendale, Arizona. This year’s Super Bowl will be broadcasted on Fox Sports.
