What…?
When it comes to Philadelphia Eagles fans, they’re quite notorious for being a bit prickly, but that’s an understatement. It doesn’t matter if it’s an opponent or their own team, Birds fans are trying to make their feelings known. And it was on full display Sunday when Philadelphia played at home against the Cleveland Browns.

For most of the game, the Eagles played lackluster football, and needless to say, the fans weren’t happy with it.

Fortunately for Birds fans, the Eagles were able to pick up a win against a Browns team, but, well, it sucked.
Philadelphia head coach Nick Sirianni was then caught on camera mocking an Eagles fan, pointing to his ear, presumably to suggest that after hearing the dubbing, he could no longer hear it.

How stupid is Nick Sirianni to mock the Eagles fan base?
He may be cocky about winning, but you better believe Philadelphia fans will remember this the next time they lose at Lincoln Financial Field. If Philadelphia’s Nick Silani continues to have an up-and-down season, you can’t help but feel like this could be the end. How on earth can you have a toxic relationship with a franchise in that city? What about your fans?
It’s not, that’s the way it is. A dead man is walking.
