The controversy stems from the Eagles’ use of the “tush push” play, which sealed the win on a critical 3rd-and-1 conversion. Chiefs defensive tackle Chris Jones accused the Eagles of jumping offsides, a claim Sirianni dismissed during a post-game press conference.
“I think that the one clip I saw of it was slowed down so much that I’m not sure you can see that to the naked eye... Losers always complain, while winners...” Sirianni trailed off, leaving his thought unfinished but the implication clear. The comment, reported by Josh Alper of Pro Football Talk, suggests Sirianni views the Chiefs’ complaints as sour grapes from a defeated team.

The Eagles executed the “tush push” seven times, drawing scrutiny after the close contest. Fans and analysts online debated the play’s legality, with some echoing Jones’ offsides concerns. Sirianni, however, doubled down, insisting his team’s perfection in execution justified the result, avoiding any admission of potential rule-bending.
Chiefs head coach Andy Reid declined to escalate the feud, focusing instead on preparation: “We lost a tough one. Our focus is on getting better, not trading barbs.” Yet, the Chiefs’ locker room reportedly buzzed with frustration over the officiating and Sirianni’s taunt.
The remark has fueled social media firestorms, with #ChiefsKingdom firing back at Sirianni and #FlyEaglesFly celebrating the dig. For Chiefs fans, it’s a call to arms ahead of their Week 3 matchup, while Eagles supporters see it as bold leadership.
As the rivalry heats up, Sirianni’s words could motivate both teams. The Eagles host the Los Angeles Rams in Week 3, but the Chiefs’ response looms large. Will Kansas City use this as fuel to reclaim dominance, or will Philadelphia’s swagger carry them further?
