The Eagles snatched him away from the Colts, where he was serving as the OC.
Eagles are hiring Colts’ OC Nick Sirianni as their head coach, sources tell ESPN. Sirianni spent three seasons as a Chiefs’ assistant coach, five seasons with the Chargers, and the past three with the Colts. Now the 39-year-old Sirianni becomes the lead man in Philadelphia.

You mean to tell me that the Eagles dumped Doug Pederson to hire a guy who was unknown by 99% of NFL fans before this very moment?
That doesn’t seem like a smart move at all. This is a mind-boggling decision.

Philly fans are notorious for being brutal and unforgiving. That’s kind of why I love them so much. If a coach fails, they get eaten alive.
Now, the franchise is being handed off to Nick Sirianni. Yeah, no offense to Nick, but this has disaster written all over it.
I mean, this dude is so unknown he doesn’t even have a Wiki page.

Best of luck, Philly! Sounds like you guys are going to need it!
