PHILADELPHIA (KYW Newsradio) — How would you like to compete against Philadelphia Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni?
In just over a year of being the head coach of the Eagles, Sirianni has displayed a unique personality, whether it's a plant analogy (described below) or wearing a shirt that says "Beat Dallas" the week of facing the Cowboys.
Competition is a core value of Sirianni, so he also caught headlines in 2021 for revealing that he played draft prospects in "rock paper scissors" to gauge their competition level.
While that game was so 2021, there's a new mini contest that Sirianni has rolled out for 2022, with an emphasis on the word "mini."
Thanks to UNC quarterback Sam Howell, via Pro Football Focus' Trevor Sikkema, we learned that the Eagles had Howell shoot basketballs on a mini hoop.
"I don't think everyone liked my rock, paper, scissors stuff last year," Sirianni said jokingly from the NFL Combine in Indianapolis.
"No, but in all seriousness, if we can figure out when we get in there, a little bit of [a player's] competitiveness, if we can get a little sense of that, that's a plus, right?"
In honor of Sirianni's methods, we're asking you which is the best way to gauge your level of competitiveness.
In the spirit of the exercise, we decided to unilaterally add Tic-Tac-Toe to the poll, and sincerely hope in the future that Sirianni takes us up on our suggestion.
Also, after voting, feel free to suggest another game you feel exemplifies strong competition in the replies section of the Twitter poll.
