The Week 1 win over Washington was more sluggish than expected for the Eagles. But they emerged 1-0. Which has added to coach Nick Sirianni’s impressive record in the month of September.
He’s 14-4 in his sixth season during the first month of the campaign. Via NBC Sports research, that gives him the all-time third-best winning percentage in September, based on a minimum of 15 games.
The leaders are George Allen, at 26-4, and Potsy Clark, at 15-4-3. (And, yes, that’s the second time Potsy Clark has been relevant to the early weeks of the 2026 season.)
Sirianni can move to 15-4 with a win in Tennessee on Sunday. And if quarterback Jalen Hurts throws three touchdown passes, he’ll become the first quarterback in franchise history to have three or more touchdown passes in the first two games of a season.
It won’t be easy for Sirianni to get to 16-4. September ends for the Eagles with a Monday night visit to Chicago, and a rematch of last year’s Black Friday drubbing by the Bears.
