He expressed his gratitude.
Philadelphia Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni expressed his gratitude to Jesus on national television moments after his team secured a dominant victory in Super Bowl LIX. Following the Eagles’ 40-22 win over the Kansas City Chiefs, Sirianni began his post-game interview by saying, “Thank you, God, thank you, Jesus,” acknowledging his faith and the blessings he felt had led them to this achievement.
The win marked the Eagles’ second Super Bowl title in franchise history. Sirianni, who faced significant pressure at the start of the 2024 season, celebrated the moment with his players on the field. With four minutes left in the game, the team had already doused their coach in Gatorade as they cruised to victory, holding a lead of up to 34 points at one point.
During his interview with Fox Sports, Sirianni gave credit to God and also praised his team for their collective effort. He emphasized the importance of teamwork, stating, “This is the ultimate team game. You can’t be great without the greatness of others.” Sirianni highlighted the contributions of everyone involved, from the players and coaching staff to Eagles general manager Howie Roseman, who had assembled the championship-winning roster.
After lifting the Vince Lombardi Trophy, Sirianni responded to those who had doubted the Eagles throughout the season, saying the team didn’t care about outside opinions. Their focus had always been on winning, regardless of how it was perceived. He reiterated his gratitude by once again saying, “Thank you, God, thank you, Jesus.”
Sirianni was also seen celebrating with his family on the field, embracing his wife and children. As he hugged his youngest son, Miles, he emotionally remarked, “Here come the happy tears,” sharing the joy of the moment with his family. The win marked a triumphant conclusion to the season, and Sirianni reflected on the team’s determination to finish strong, recalling the players’ desire for a parade and a ring ceremony that would follow their championship run.
