Chiefs coach Andy Reid offered advice to Eagles’ Nick Sirianni on how to handle the bye week and Philly has found great success ever since.

The Giants needed a win and some help in Detroit to keep their Super Bowl defense alive. The Eagles were simply eager to end a season that had devolved into a 4-11 mess, hoping to avoid an 11th loss in the final 12 weeks. Reid brought a little friend with him — the Super Bowl ring he’d earned as an assistant for the Packers back in 1996.

Nick Sirianni never coached alongside Andy Reid, but the two share a bond as coaches who have led the Eagles to a Super Bowl. Reid managed to make only one in 14 seasons with the Eagles, while Sirianni is already in his second in Year 4.
