![PHILADELPHIA — Now in his fourth season, the Eagles’ Nick Sirianni is 42-19 as a head coach in the NFL. That’s a better record than Don Shula, George Halas, Paul Brown, Tony Dungy, George Siefert, Andy Reid, Curly Lambeau or Bill Belichick had when any of them started out as a head coach in this league. Sirianni has taken the team to the playoffs every year, is on track to do so again, and went to the Super Bowl in just his second season.

In the midst of a four-game winning streak while preparing to face a wounded Cowboys squad, his unforced error at Friday’s press conference caused a controversy. Quarterback Jalen Hurts had sat out of practice on Wednesday, listed on the injury report as “rest.” But Sirianni, when asked a seemingly innocuous question about Hurts’ “load management” this week, volunteered that it was because of an ankle injury, not rest — until a public-relations person spoke up from the side of the auditorium.
