Nick Sirianni tries to become seventh coach to win his first six home playoff games

Nick Sirianni tries to become seventh coach to win his first six home playoff games

Our Summary

Eagles coach Nick Sirianni is set to lead his team in a home playoff game on Sunday afternoon. A victory would mark Sirianni's sixth consecutive home playoff win, joining an elite group of coaches who have achieved this milestone. The list includes Bill Belichick, Marv Levy, Pete Carroll, Sean Payton, Kyle Shanahan, and Paul Brown. Unlike Levy, Shanahan, and Brown, Sirianni has already secured a Super Bowl victory. The Eagles will face a formidable opponent in the San Francisco 49ers, who have overcome significant injuries to remain strong contenders. The 49ers have not lost their playoff opener since the 2001 wild-card round against Green Bay.
