After showing some moxie early on during a Sunday afternoon showdown at Lincoln Financial Field, the Philadelphia Eagles rolled over and took the L for the seventh week in a row, effectively handing the New York Giants the keys to the NFC East for the first time since 2011.
And to add insult to injury, while being booed on his way to the locker room, a video surfaced showing head coach Nick Sirianni potentially flipping the bird to Birds fans on his way off the field.
… or did he?
Talking to reporters on Monday before Philly's Week 10 bye, Sirianni was asked point blank if he flipped off fans after the Eagles' Week 9 loss and unequivocally denied it.
“Yeah, when Bob told that to me, absolutely not,” Sirianni said. “That was a surprise to me, but absolutely not.”
Now granted, just because Sirianni said he didn't flip the bird doesn't mean fans haven't dissected the video like the Zapruder film, determining how much the finger rose off his hand versus his other finger while examining his expression to note for any malice.
Did Sirianni do it? Or was it all just clever camera trickery? In the end, does it really even matter? The Eagles already have two more losses in 2026 than they had in 2025, and it's not even Thanksgiving. With a week off to give fans a breather before another chance at heartbreak in a Keystone State showdown against the Pittsburgh Steelers, at least Sirianni gave fans something else to talk about besides the Eagles' increasingly poor on-field product.
