Eagles defensive end Brandon Graham says playing for Nick Sirianni reminds players of why they wanted to play football in the first place: It's fun.

Graham said the 41-year-old Sirianni is part of a generation of coaches who can relate to players and understand what makes the players tick.

"You've got a coach who's young, who's being him, just having fun," Graham said. "It's a game, so he tries to make it fun for us. That's how you get the most out of your players. When you try not to make a game fun, and it's too serious, it ain't gonna end well for you on game day."

For Graham and his teammates, being at the Super Bowl is a lot more fun than doing whatever the players on 30 other teams are doing right now.
