Reid has mastered the art of managing the big game while Sirianni has not reached that point. The Philadelphia coach has been through it and he was close on his first Super Bowl attempt. Now he must show that he has caught up to Reid. It’s a major challenge that few have been up to at this point.

The Kansas City Chiefs have had a lot of success under head coach Andy Reid, and they wanted to make sure the Philadelphia Eagles know all about it ahead of the matchups between the two teams in the Super Bowl on Feb.

The Giants needed a win and some help in Detroit to keep their Super Bowl defense alive. The Eagles were simply eager to end a season that had devolved into a 4-11 mess, hoping to avoid an 11th loss in the final 12 weeks. Reid brought a little friend with him — the Super Bowl ring he’d earned as an assistant for the Packers back in 1996.

Nick Sirianni never coached alongside Andy Reid, but the two share a bond as coaches who have led the Eagles to a Super Bowl. Reid managed to make only one in 14 seasons with the Eagles, while Sirianni is already in his second in Year 4.
