Eagles GM Howie Roseman compares winning Super Bowls to first-time sex, reflecting on Philly's championships, team roster upgrades, and his bold, entertaining leadership style.
Philadelphia Eagles General Manager Howie Roseman, never one to shy away from colorful commentary, has stirred the pot with a rather unconventional analogy for winning Super Bowls. In a recent interview, he likened the experience to, well, having sex for the first time. Yes, really.
Roseman, who now boasts two Vince Lombardi trophies on his resume, made the comparison while reflecting on his team's big wins. His Eagles clinched their first Super Bowl victory in 2018 by defeating Tom Brady’s New England Patriots, and they recently secured another triumph last month by thwarting the Kansas City Chiefs’ quest for a three-peat.
When asked about the feeling of winning two championships, Roseman didn’t hold back. "The first one," he began, before pausing to check if the show was rated PG or PG-13. Then came the zinger: "It’s almost like the first time you have sex. You’re just glad you had sex. It’s not even about the quality of it. The second time, it’s like, ‘Wow, I can actually have fun and enjoy this.’"
Well, that’s certainly one way to put it. Thankfully, Roseman didn’t delve deeper into the metaphor, leaving it at that. But his point about savoring the moment after the first big milestone? It actually resonates, even if the delivery was, let’s call it, *unexpectedly candid.*
Roseman’s success as GM is undeniable. His first Super Bowl title came with Nick Foles’ electrifying performance, which turned the quarterback into a Philadelphia legend. But this year’s championship roster, featuring stars like Saquon Barkley, A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, and Dallas Goedert, arguably outshines the 2018 squad headlined by LeGarrette Blount, Jay Ajayi, and Alshon Jeffery. The difference in quality between the two teams might just justify Roseman’s cheeky comparison.
In the offseason, Roseman has shown no signs of slowing down. Reports suggest the Eagles are making bold moves, including releasing James Bradberry and Darius Slay, while also securing a record-breaking contract extension for Offensive Player of the Year Saquon Barkley. Clearly, Roseman’s enjoying this phase of his career—and doing so with his signature flair.
Love him or hate him, you’ve got to admit: Howie Roseman knows how to keep things interesting, both on and off the field.

Okay, Howie, comparing Super Bowl wins to sex? Bold choice, but not entirely off the mark. It’s a little cringey, sure, but the point about savoring success the second time around does land. Still, maybe next time he could try an analogy that doesn’t double as a TMI moment.
