Nick Sirianni and the Philadelphia Eagles are officially the 2025 Super Bowl LIX Champions. They won with a devastatingly dominant performance on Sunday night against the Chiefs, delivering a 40-22 throttling that wasn’t nearly as close as the final score indicates. Right after the big win, Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni shared a special moment with his family. He and his son did the E-A-G-L-E-S chant in his postgame interview with FOX.

Sirianni guided his team to a dominant performance on Sunday, one of the more dominant performances we’ve ever seen against a Patrick Mahomes-led Kansas City team. The Philadelphia defense sacked Mahomes six times. Perhaps even more impressive was the fact that the Eagles defense didn’t blitz once. Vic Fangio, the defense coordinator for Philly, will forever be remembered for that Super Bowl performance.

They forced Mahomes into two interceptions, one of which was a back-breaking pick six by Cooper DeJean, a rookie corner from Iowa. Not only that, but they also forced a fumble, which was another crucial play.

The celebrations will continue for the Eagles as the 2025 NFL season has officially come to an end.

Oh, how things can change in a calendar year. Last season, following the Eagles NFC Wild Card Round defeat to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, many had Sirianni labeled as a dead man walking. Some wanted him fired on the spot. Now, he’s a Super Bowl champion. And no, he won’t be getting canned anytime soon.

Since taking over for Doug Pederson after the 2020 season, all Sirianni and the Eagles have done is win. Sirianni is 48-20 in the regular season, the fifth-highest winning percentage among head coaches in NFL history. But coaches are ultimately judged by their postseason success, and Sirianni will soon have a ring to show off in addition to a Super Bowl appearance in 2022.

That Philadelphia team failed to get it done against Kansas City. But not this version of the Eagles, who can now call themselves Super Bowl champions forever.
