Brandon Graham fired back at New York Giants defensive back Julian Love after his comments about Nick Sirianni.
It all began when Love stated that anybody could’ve stepped in to coach the Eagles to the Super Bowl, basically dismissing his coaching skills. Sirianni, who’s in his second year as head coach, led the Eagles to Super Bowl LVII set for next week.
“He’s in for a free ride. You and I could coach this team,” Love said. He also didn’t like how Sirianni was acting on the sidelines, either.
Philadelphia Eagles star Brandon Graham had heard enough, so he fired back at the Giants star.
“People always got something to say when they’re at home,” Graham said. “I just know that coach Sirianni — it don’t matter — what he did last year, with a team that nobody thought was gonna do much, he ended up getting us to the playoffs. Then for his second year, that’s what you’re supposed to do — you’re supposed to get better, bring players in to do exactly what you need them to do and we did that.
“A lot of people just mad because of what happened this season and I understand. It definitely carried no weight because coach proved himself each and every day and if you’re not in here, you wouldn’t really know that. It’s just all lip service.”
The Eagles swept the Giants in the regular season and then eliminated them in the playoffs.

Love and the Giants had a great season and went 1-1 in the playoffs. New York took down the Minnesota Vikings in the NFC Wild Card Round. Trash talk between rivals will always exist, but not much can be said when one of you are getting ready to play in the Super Bowl.
