The Philadelphia Eagles made a deep run in the 2022 NFL playoffs, resulting in a Super Bowl berth.
While they weren’t able to add another Lombardi to the franchise’s trophy case, the Eagles look to be in a great position for 2023 and beyond.
They signed Jalen Hurts to a contract extension during the offseason, tying him to the team through 2028.
This was an exciting development for one of the most passionate fanbases in the league.
In a recent press conference shared via NBC Sports Philadelphia, Nick Siranni called Philadelphia “the best sports town in America.”

Eagles fans are routinely touted as extremely passionate, and other fans around the league even refer to them as “crazy.”
The passion of Philadelphia was put on full display in 2018 when they won their last Super Bowl.
In the aftermath of this victory, fans were seen running around the streets, flipping cars, and climbing up street poles.
If the Eagles are to win the Super Bowl again in 2023, their fans might react in a similar, if not a more extreme passion.
It appears that Siranni is fully aware of what the city is capable of, and seems excited about their potential if the team does win another Super Bowl.
Will the Eagles break through again, finding themselves as a top team in the NFC?
They have a top-five offense and defense, as evidenced by their play last season.
If they’re able to stay healthy, the Eagles might be a team to watch, given the general weakness of the conference.
