Eagles' Nick Sirianni loses his cool after barely escaping 1-4 Browns with a win

The Philadelphia Eagles were barely able to walk away with a win over the 1-4 Cleveland Browns on Sunday at the Linc.

But they pulled it off, beating the Browns 20-16.

Philly fans were not happy with head coach Nick Sirianni overall and started the "fire Nick Sirianni" chants and boos at halftime when the game was tied 10-10.

They kept those chants going well into the fourth quarter and Sirianni had some words to say back to them while the clock ticked down to the Birds' narrow victory.

After the game, Sirianni had a message for the fans.

"We thrive off the crowd when they cheer for us," Sirianni said, "That's all I'll say. When our crowd cheers for us we thrive off of them. We hear them when they boo, we don't necessarily like it. I don't think that's productive for anybody but when they cheer for us and when we got em rolling, we love it."

He also had a message for the media (and fans), when asked about the Eagles' offense that remains the only team in the NFL that has not scored in the first quarter this season.

"Ya'll are making a big deal about it [Eagles' slow start offensively]," Sirianni said. "We're going to figure it out. We're going to fix it. We know how to score. We get it, you guys have a job to do and you're going to fixate on one thing. Like, 'they haven't started fast' or 'they haven't turned the ball over.' We got it. We're going to do everything we can do to fix it. I don't want that to be in their heads. That's why I'm telling you guys we got it.

"We'll figure it out. Sometimes you get things in your head and you continue and it kind of works. But the defense started their ass off. It was 10-nothing and the defense didn't let up a play. So they played their ass off. So they started fast and we'll get it figured out on offense. We will get it figured out on offense."

The Eagles, despite not having their identity figured, are 3-2 on the season and will take on the New York Giants at MetLife Stadium in Week 7.
