Speaker 1: We welcome you to Eagles three sixty on this Wednesday
Speaker 1: at an Overcare complex in our Exfinity studio on Eagles
Speaker 1: insider Dave Spadaro along with Joe Di Camera, the Eagles
Speaker 1: getting ready for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday at
Speaker 1: Lincoln Financial Field. Lots of questions about this football team, Joe,
Speaker 1: particularly at the quarterback position. We don't know who's going
Speaker 1: to be the quarterback on Sunday. We know that Mark
Speaker 1: Sanchez is taking reps. Thaddeus Lewis gets a repper two here.
Speaker 1: What is the best case in your mind, the best
Speaker 1: case scenario for the Eagles against Tampa Bay. Well, you
Speaker 1: want whoever's going to play to play well. I mean,
Speaker 1: that's ultimately what it's all about. I think if you're
Speaker 1: the Eagles and you want Sam Bradford to be the
Speaker 1: starting quarterback, then you want him to be healthy and
Speaker 1: ready to go this week. Whether he can be or not,
Speaker 1: you know, obviously time remains to be seen on that.
Speaker 1: But look, I think Mark Sanchez can get in there
Speaker 1: and operate this offense. You know fairly well, he did
Speaker 1: it last year. Obviously started all stronger, you know, went
Speaker 1: more downhills the season went on. I don't think there's
Speaker 1: really a huge discernible difference Dave at this point between
Speaker 1: the two quarterbacks. That would just be, you know, my
Speaker 1: personal opinion. I kind of disagree with that. I think
Speaker 1: Bradford has really come on in the last few weeks.
Speaker 1: His mobility is greater, his command of the offense is better.
Speaker 1: He seems to be throwing. It's more confidence. The offense
Speaker 1: has moved the football. The problem with the Eagles offense
Speaker 1: as I see it, no matter who the quarterback, has
Speaker 1: been here, not just this year, but in the two
Speaker 1: previous seasons. And I keep saying it, the red zone
Speaker 1: offense has been ineffective against Miami. Two of five I've
Speaker 1: in the red zone, including the Mark Sanchez interception in
Speaker 1: the end zone, of course, and that's the one that
Speaker 1: gets the most attention, but the Eagles had two other
Speaker 1: opportunities to score. I just think Sanchez is a very
Speaker 1: good backup player, a good quarterback. But Bradford, to me,
Speaker 1: after shaking off the rust for most of the first
Speaker 1: half of I just think the last couple of weeks,
Speaker 1: he's really come on. Well, he certainly had, but here's
Speaker 1: the thing. I'll say this about the Dolphins game. I
Speaker 1: don't feel like Dave he was as strong in that
Speaker 1: game as the perception was as the statistics indicate. Having
Speaker 1: seen the film yesterday with Jaws down in the NFL films,
Speaker 1: for instance, first play of the game, Brent sellec completely
Speaker 1: uncovered by the Miami defense, one hundred percent uncovered. So
Speaker 1: when Bradford hits him, Selleck makes a nice little move,
Speaker 1: gets down the field on the right sideline, and ultimately
Speaker 1: Dave goes he I think it was about sixty yards.
Speaker 1: That's not a huge credit for Sam Bradford. That doesn't
Speaker 1: mean Sam Bradford or something credit for the offense. It's
Speaker 1: a huge credit for the offense. But the guess uncovered
Speaker 1: so well. I mean it's a good design, sure, I
Speaker 1: mean we're I'm not like going play by play with
Speaker 1: Sam Bradford, but nineteen to twenty five is in press. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And I just think he's blaying a lot better now
Speaker 1: than he was back in a week one, two, three,
Speaker 1: four five. I totally agree with that. I think the
Speaker 1: upside with Sam Bradford. To me, to answer the original question,
Speaker 1: to me, the best case scenario is that Sam Bradford
Speaker 1: gets healthy and is the quarterback on Sunday. Now, I think, no,
Speaker 1: I think that's fair. I would I would agree with that.
Speaker 1: Maybe I didn't state that well enough initially. Okay, fair point,
Speaker 1: they wins, But no, how would you believe I do
Speaker 1: agree with that because I think Mark Sanchez is what
Speaker 1: he is. I think we have a good feel for
Speaker 1: what he is. He's a very quality backup quarterback. He
Speaker 1: can be a bottom end starting quarterback in this leg,
Speaker 1: as he's been before. But I agree with the basic
Speaker 1: premise that Sam Bradford has a greater ceiling and therefore, ultimately, yes,
Speaker 1: you want to see him in there and see what
Speaker 1: that what that ceiling becomes. Yeah, and Mark Sanchez was
Speaker 1: productive and until the end zone interception, really had the
Speaker 1: tempo going, had the offense going. And look, anyway, that's
Speaker 1: that's the big topic, the quarterback situation. We get some
Speaker 1: more of that a little bit later on. We'll talk
Speaker 1: a lot more about this football team heading into an
Speaker 1: another huge game, But first get to get you caught
Speaker 1: up in everything having It's not just Sam Bradford and
Speaker 1: the injury questions. There are plenty of other players who
Speaker 1: we don't know if they're gonna go on Sunday. Here's
Speaker 1: your update. Hi everyone, I'm Alex Smith and this is
Speaker 1: your three sixty update. The Eagles were back at work
Speaker 1: here at the Novicare Complex as they get set for
Speaker 1: Sunday afternoons matchup with the Tampa Bay Bucks. The big
Speaker 1: news today came from head coach Chip Kelly, who said
Speaker 1: that quarterback Sam Bradford still has not passed the NFL's
Speaker 1: concussion protocol, so they're still waiting for him to clear
Speaker 1: that before he can get back out on the practice field. Meanwhile,
Speaker 1: we heard from quarterback Mark Sanchez who said it's still
Speaker 1: up in the air as to who gets to start
Speaker 1: at quarterback on Sunday. I don't know. I'm waiting for
Speaker 1: the call from the coach. So Sam and I are
Speaker 1: both studying hard. Fat's in there and Steve in the
Speaker 1: same way. So we're all working Harden. We'll all be ready, buddy.
Speaker 1: We also heard from Sanchez and head coach Chip Kelly
Speaker 1: on Gerald McCoy and this talented Tampa Bay defense and
Speaker 1: the challenges that they present. And I think a lot
Speaker 1: of in that defense when you have that type of guy,
Speaker 1: and you know, when the Bucks were in their heyday
Speaker 1: and they had Warren Sapp. You know, you really need
Speaker 1: that three technique type of player to be a disruptive
Speaker 1: force free and that's what he is. You know, we
Speaker 1: faced him two years ago and have seen him firsthand
Speaker 1: when we played them down there, and he was as advertised.
Speaker 1: He's a very disruptive force in there and certainly someone
Speaker 1: that we're going to make sure we're aware of where
Speaker 1: he is. I think they're one of the best we've seen.
Speaker 1: Those two linebackers inside are tough manys, no slaves. That
Speaker 1: guy's a heck of a player. I think their secondary
Speaker 1: I think certainly Moore's playing really well for him, and
Speaker 1: we faced him in Dallas, you know, so he's got
Speaker 1: a good comfort level with us. You know, so that's
Speaker 1: another guy to look out for. Last, but certainly not least.
Speaker 1: We caught up with a number of the Eagles defenders
Speaker 1: who spoke about where this defense is right now and
Speaker 1: where they need to improve moving forward. If we clean
Speaker 1: that up and then we want to be a dominant defense,
Speaker 1: we have to eliminate those little mistakes that we can control,
Speaker 1: and once we do that, then we'll be a dominant defense.
Speaker 1: And you know again, we have to keep up in
Speaker 1: the turnover about it. We didn't get the turnovers that
Speaker 1: we wanted last week. We have to continue to do that,
Speaker 1: but we definitely have to just snuff teams. We get turnovers,
Speaker 1: get turnovers and I think, I mean, I don't, I
Speaker 1: don't notice. That's falls rizone efficiencies. But we can't allow touchdowns.
Speaker 1: It's crush time every week. Man. You know NFCS Well,
Speaker 1: I told you I have been a part of some
Speaker 1: crazy endings and you just never know. We just got
Speaker 1: to make sure we went up. We got seven games
Speaker 1: and we just need to win this one. With all
Speaker 1: of the questions surrounding the quarterback situation, There's sure to
Speaker 1: be a lot of news coming out of the Novacare
Speaker 1: Complex before Sunday's game, so be sure to stay tuned
Speaker 1: to Philadelphia Eagles dot com throughout the week for all
Speaker 1: of the latest Eagles news. Thanks so much, Alex, We've
Speaker 1: got a lot to get to Today. Chip Kelly comes
Speaker 1: into studio. We'll talk about the NFC East. There's still
Speaker 1: a chance for the Philadelphia Eagles, in fact, a very
Speaker 1: good chance for the Eagles. When we return, however, to
Speaker 1: Eagles three sixty We're gonna talk a little bit with
Speaker 1: some cover two segments. Here Chris McPherson with a couple
Speaker 1: of Philadelphia reporters, Josh Parnell, Brandie Gowton, their perspective on
Speaker 1: this four and five Eagles team. I got tickets, Metro tickets.
Speaker 1: You need a Metro ticket? Talk to me, please. I

Speaker 1: We are back. It's Eagles three sixty Dave Spidero, Joe
Speaker 1: Di camera. Time now for Chris McPherson to take over
Speaker 1: the show. He's got covered too. Hello everyone, Chris McPherson,
Speaker 1: and welcome to this week's edition of Cover two here
Speaker 1: on Philadelphia Eagles dot Com. You figured that we would
Speaker 1: be talking about a big win over the Miami Dolphins
Speaker 1: before looking ahead to Tampa Bay, but alas that is
Speaker 1: not the case. To break down the twenty and nineteen loss,
Speaker 1: I brought it Josh pon Hill from Bury seven and
Speaker 1: then notorious BLG Brandley Guten from Leaving Green Nation. Josh,
Speaker 1: I'll let you start things off here. What is the
Speaker 1: biggest reason for the Eagles loss? Well, I mean officsive
Speaker 1: line play that average just two point three yards per carry.
Speaker 1: Dominicansu just really disrupted the run game pretty much after
Speaker 1: the first two drives the whole game, three tackles for losses,
Speaker 1: three quarterback hits. He just was able to do whatever
Speaker 1: he wanted to against Kelsey against Kelly Tobin. So that
Speaker 1: was the big reason. Was his penetration really not giving
Speaker 1: Murray or Matthews a chance to even get to the
Speaker 1: last scrimmage on someplace brighton anything other than the offensive line.
Speaker 1: Your special team is obviously huge concern. I mean, that
Speaker 1: was such a st of the team last year. And
Speaker 1: for them to have a pump blocked second of the
Speaker 1: season they had one earlier this year, and to miss
Speaker 1: that chip shot of a field goal that would have
Speaker 1: put them up nineteen to three at the time, I mean,
Speaker 1: special teams has just been a real big disappointment for
Speaker 1: this team. Brandon, As we look ahead to Sunday's game,
Speaker 1: there's a chance in Mark Sanchez, depending on Sam Bradford stats,
Speaker 1: will have to start in his absence. So does the
Speaker 1: offense change if Sanchez has applied. I don't think it
Speaker 1: changes in a way that you know, you're not seeing
Speaker 1: a huge drop off from from Bradford to Sanchez at
Speaker 1: this point. I think you know Sanchez is what he is.
Speaker 1: He went pretty much five and four as a starter,
Speaker 1: kind of at the four and four, but he kind
Speaker 1: of helped win that Texans game last year, So he's
Speaker 1: going to go in there. I think he gives the
Speaker 1: team a chance to win, and I think that's what
Speaker 1: you really want out of a backup quarterback. Josh, what
Speaker 1: does Sanchards bring to the table if he has to start.
Speaker 1: I mean, he's one of the best pack of quarterbacks
Speaker 1: in the league. And what he brings is just the
Speaker 1: experience of last year. I think you really saw that
Speaker 1: the Dolphins game because once he came in, Chip didn't
Speaker 1: really change the play calls are attacking downfield. They were
Speaker 1: able to do the same things. They able to take shots.
Speaker 1: They weren't always completed, whether it was a drop or
Speaker 1: it was just an overthrow, but they were able to
Speaker 1: do the same things. And he doesn't have to be
Speaker 1: great to win this game against the Buccaneers. He just
Speaker 1: has to be solid and he's more than capable of
Speaker 1: doing that. All right, gentlemen, the Eagles set at four
Speaker 1: and five. They've not been able to get over that
Speaker 1: five hundred hump the entire season. Josh, what is the
Speaker 1: biggest reason for that or what would you say is
Speaker 1: been the biggest disappointment to this point in this season
Speaker 1: looking at this team overall, well, I think consistency, not
Speaker 1: necessarily just the offensive line, but you know Caleb Sturgis
Speaker 1: in the kicking game and key moments, and it's just
Speaker 1: whenever the Eagles need not necessarily a big play but
Speaker 1: just kind of a solid play, they'll turn the ball over.
Speaker 1: They'll make a crucial mistake that will either give up
Speaker 1: the lead or take away the chance to take the lead.
Speaker 1: I mean the Sanchez interception, the stur just missfield goal,
Speaker 1: the blocked punt. They just do a lot of things,
Speaker 1: and you know these are units that normally are pretty good,
Speaker 1: but in some key moment, but they're just not consistent
Speaker 1: and they make crucial mistakes. Blg most disappointing aspect in
Speaker 1: your estimation. One of the most disappointing things I think
Speaker 1: this season has been the decline or the unexpected disappointing
Speaker 1: performances from players you think you would usually be able
Speaker 1: to count on. I mean, you look at Jason Kelsey,
Speaker 1: a guy who's only twenty seven pro bowler last year,
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, you know he's struggling this year.
Speaker 1: And that's something you really couldn't really address going into
Speaker 1: the season. You weren't finishing last year and saying, hey,
Speaker 1: we need to fix the center spot. So when you
Speaker 1: have areas like that where you're supposed to have players
Speaker 1: you can count on and they're not living up to that,
Speaker 1: it's really hard. Even you look at John Dornbos, who
Speaker 1: who's been struggling with some of his long snaps. I
Speaker 1: mean guys like that who usually rely on to be
Speaker 1: good players, and that the fact that they can't, you
Speaker 1: can't rely on them like that, I think that's been
Speaker 1: a big disappointment. He's Brandley Gouton from Blie and Green Nation.
Speaker 1: He's Josh Pannell from Burst Wait for Seven, and I'm
Speaker 1: Chris McPherson. Thank you very much for joining us on

Speaker 1: Jamis Winston a huge challenge along with some of the
Speaker 1: other weapons. But when we return to Eagles three sixty,
Speaker 1: Joe Decameron and I are going to break down the
Speaker 1: NFC East again and yes, the Eagles are just as
Speaker 1: far whether you like it or not, from the top
Speaker 1: of the division. Pairs small fries with your favorite for

Speaker 1: to buy or sell NFL tickets. Visit NFL ticket exchange
Speaker 1: dot com. All right, Joe, a couple of games here
Speaker 1: in quick order. Give me some wins and losses. Eagles
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay Oh Man, Well, we predict these things in April,
Speaker 1: and the schedule comes out wrong or probably wrong if
Speaker 1: we do it right now. But here's the deal. Winnable
Speaker 1: games home versus Tampa at Detroit, losable games at New England.
Speaker 1: Chalk it up, el Beyond that, they're all winnable, they're
Speaker 1: all losable. The key is the Eagles gotta get to eight,
Speaker 1: and they gotta beat the New York Giants the final
Speaker 1: week of the season. That's really what I mean. I'm
Speaker 1: telling you, Dave, we can talk about Nate. I think
Speaker 1: nine to seven. Here's what I'm gonna say. In less
Speaker 1: the Redskins go eight and eight, which they may, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna give you two categories. Category one, Washington does not
Speaker 1: get to eight and eight. If the Washington Redskins don't
Speaker 1: get to eight and eate the Philadelphia Eagles need to
Speaker 1: do two things to win the division. They need to
Speaker 1: get to eight and eight and they need to beat
Speaker 1: the Giants week seventeen. That will win the Eagles the
Speaker 1: division under that umbrella left formula. Go ahead, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: have the the green view here. I believe the Eagles
Speaker 1: will steal one of these games. Okay. Now, New England
Speaker 1: will be a very crazy, tough game to win. We
Speaker 1: all know that. I think Buffalo winnable here, Arizona, that's
Speaker 1: the game that I'm sorry Now I'm going on with
Speaker 1: the premise here, of course, that the Eagles beat Tampa Bay. Eagles,
Speaker 1: take care of business in Detroit, have a nice little
Speaker 1: ten day rest, go out to New England a little
Speaker 1: beat up after their game. They don't have Jordan Edelman.
Speaker 1: Give New England a good game. Hey, is it crazy
Speaker 1: for me to think the Eagles can beat the Patriots? Yes, okay,
Speaker 1: that's where we Let's take a look at the NFC
Speaker 1: East Giants, leading the division at five and five. They
Speaker 1: have a bye week on Sunday this weekend. They are
Speaker 1: playing good football. Tough loss to the Patriots last week,
Speaker 1: and I think that that offense, the way that ELI
Speaker 1: is running that offense, probably gives the Giants maybe the
Speaker 1: edge over the rest of the division. But I think
Speaker 1: that and the fact that they have that Week seventeen
Speaker 1: game at homes the big thing. I mean, they had
Speaker 1: you know, that's ultimately huge. Eagles went into Dallas two
Speaker 1: years ago and won that game. But let's you remember
Speaker 1: Tony Romo was out Week seventeen. Typically that week's seventeen matchup,
Speaker 1: you have it at home. That's big. Now, the Giants
Speaker 1: have played better football than the Eagles this season, but
Speaker 1: not by much. Giants have had some very tough losses.
Speaker 1: Eagles have had some very bad losses. If you understand,
Speaker 1: you know, sort of the distinction. I mean, obviously, what
Speaker 1: the Giants did versus in New England the other day
Speaker 1: was impressive, and in the day they lost their five
Speaker 1: and five Eagles win their game. It's a tie now,
Speaker 1: all as you know, the Giants have lost Victor Cruz
Speaker 1: for the season. They bring Hakeem next back. I think
Speaker 1: Eli Manning Davis the quarterback. If you had to choose
Speaker 1: one from the division you'd want for the rest of
Speaker 1: the season, I think Eli's that guy. But they do
Speaker 1: still lack a pass rash and a good defensive backfield,
Speaker 1: and there are issues there. They come back from the
Speaker 1: buy at Washington then they play the Jets and then
Speaker 1: at Miami. So it's not an easy road for any
Speaker 1: of these teams, certainly not for the New York Giants.
Speaker 1: Washington a big win over New Orleans over the weekend.
Speaker 1: They this weekend go down to Carolina. That is a
Speaker 1: very tough game for Washington, and then they've got the
Speaker 1: Giants at Chicago home with Buffalo again, a tough road
Speaker 1: for them. It is the thing that scares me is
Speaker 1: I just think at some point Carolina loses. I mean,
Speaker 1: I just think they have to. At some point Carolina
Speaker 1: fandoms is gonna lose a football game. I don't think
Speaker 1: Washington is a very good team. I say that every
Speaker 1: week they're still in the mix. I think it defines
Speaker 1: in many ways why you know there's mediocrity in this
Speaker 1: division and how just with this NFL format, Remember used
Speaker 1: to have six divisions. Now you have eight divisions. That
Speaker 1: means you have four teams in a division instead of five.
Speaker 1: It means you have a chance for eight and eight
Speaker 1: and seven to nine teams to make the playoffs. We've
Speaker 1: seen that over the last couple of years in a
Speaker 1: couple of different instances. We're seeing that again this year day.
Speaker 1: We're seeing that with the NFC East. We're seeing that
Speaker 1: with the AFC South. I don't think the Washington Redskins
Speaker 1: or any great team by any stretch, but they're in
Speaker 1: the mix in a mediocre division. By the way, they
Speaker 1: ran the ball a lot better the other day. Their
Speaker 1: offensive line played a really good game, and Kirk Cousins
Speaker 1: has played some better football of late. So you know,
Speaker 1: the offensive player of the week for his performance against
Speaker 1: the same can't discount them. I have discounted them many
Speaker 1: times over. Yeah, and I guess I gotta stop saying yeah.
Speaker 1: I think they're better than we give them credit for.
Speaker 1: They've They've played hard football all season long. How about
Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys getting Tony Romo back a two and
Speaker 1: seven football team. This is a moment where the Cowboys
Speaker 1: think that they can run the table starting this weekend
Speaker 1: in Miami. It will be difficult to do. Tony Romo
Speaker 1: Still's got to rush to shake off. The defense has
Speaker 1: been pretty good, not great. The question is how many
Speaker 1: games can the Cowboys make up with the Romo back
Speaker 1: in the lineup. Look, they're not done yet, but they're
Speaker 1: darn well close to it. They really are Dave. I mean,
Speaker 1: first off, they're a mess. All the Greg Hardy stuff,
Speaker 1: you know, with the practice at the meeting and showing
Speaker 1: up late, everything to do with that. It's just a
Speaker 1: bad situation in Dallas. And from a probability standpoint from
Speaker 1: two and seven coming back, you know, as Romo re
Speaker 1: emerges here, I just don't say it, Dame. I mean,
Speaker 1: I just I think that. I think the percentage chances
Speaker 1: are so enormous at Green Bay Carolina. Here's what they
Speaker 1: would need in all seriocens. They would need the teams
Speaker 1: in the NFC East to lose these, like the Eagles games.
Speaker 1: They would need the Eagles solution Buffalo, they need the
Speaker 1: Eagle solute Arizona. And they need the Eagles and the
Speaker 1: Giants and the Redskins to lose the games out of
Speaker 1: the division so that that division comes all the way
Speaker 1: down to seven and nine at the end, which by
Speaker 1: the way, is possible if it comes down to seven
Speaker 1: and nine. To do the math, what does that mean?
Speaker 1: They got to go. Let me tell you them, Heges
Speaker 1: are gonna going to run here, Eagles are gonna going
Speaker 1: to run here. By this time, in a couple of weeks,
Speaker 1: we're gonna be talking about a six and five football
Speaker 1: team above five hundred and surging into New England. So
Speaker 1: that's our look at the NFC East. When we return,
Speaker 1: we'll get back to reality. Chip Kelly and Studio talking
Speaker 1: about Tampa Bay. Another huge game, poor the Eagles at

Speaker 1: Welcome to our exclusive one on one with head coach
Speaker 1: Chip Kelly, presented by Wah Wah Tampa Bay comes to
Speaker 1: town on Sunday. Coach led by the quarterback Jameis Winston.
Speaker 1: What have you seen from him this year? He's seen
Speaker 1: a lot of improvements since the season started. I think
Speaker 1: he's been the development you can see a game by game.
Speaker 1: He continues to see new coverages, new fronts. When and
Speaker 1: once he sees him, he gets acclimated to him and
Speaker 1: continues to play better. But I think from game one
Speaker 1: to now, I think you've seen a great improvement from
Speaker 1: He's a talented player and you gotta be aware of
Speaker 1: him because not only can he throw the ball. He
Speaker 1: can also beat a um running the ball. I think
Speaker 1: there's some toughness to him. He's been hit around and
Speaker 1: banged up a little bit through a key block in
Speaker 1: overtime against the Falcons. You know, he's a he's he's
Speaker 1: a really really good football player, and the team seems
Speaker 1: like it's responded to a young leader down there. They
Speaker 1: play hard. They had a big win on Sunday against Dallas.
Speaker 1: They do. I think love He's doing a really good
Speaker 1: job with that team. He's a heck of a football coach.
Speaker 1: They're they're really They've got some good playmakers on defense
Speaker 1: that are that are making plays from m McCoy and
Speaker 1: uh Levante David and their new inside linebacker Kwan Alexander's
Speaker 1: making some places for him. Uh. They're really dedicated to
Speaker 1: running the football. On the offensive side, they they're they
Speaker 1: they'll use multiple tight informations, they'll play with a fullback
Speaker 1: um and then they're starting to throw some shots down
Speaker 1: the field with Jamis and then Evans at wide receivers
Speaker 1: playing really little for yeah, Mike Evans, that big body,
Speaker 1: the big catch radius. What kind of challenges that for defenses?
Speaker 1: You know, I think it's a different you know, he's
Speaker 1: in the Dez Bryant category in terms of the size
Speaker 1: for a receiver, much like Dez or Julio Jones in
Speaker 1: terms of getting matched up with those guys. Has such
Speaker 1: a big catch radius and then when it's a contested
Speaker 1: one on one ball, it's it's a tough matchup because
Speaker 1: he is so big and is so physical. He talked
Speaker 1: about their defense, but is it one that is built
Speaker 1: on size strength or is it more of a speed
Speaker 1: kind of thing. It's built on speed. You know. Levey
Speaker 1: is a Tampa two disciple, you know, coach that defense
Speaker 1: under coach Dungee when it, you know, really kind of
Speaker 1: started to catch in this league. It's a lot like
Speaker 1: Dallas's defense with Rod Marinelli. Very athletic and fast on
Speaker 1: the defensive line. One gap penetrators, speed at the linebacker spots,
Speaker 1: guys that can run sideline to sideline. You know, Lavante
Speaker 1: David is an All Pro linebacker. The young rookie Kwan
Speaker 1: Alexander playing the mic linebacker is another speed guy. So, um,
Speaker 1: there's a lot of speed on the defensive front and
Speaker 1: you're going to get a lot of movement. It's interesting
Speaker 1: how you create matchups and on Sunday against Miami. It
Speaker 1: was zach Ertz and Brent Seller involved a lot in
Speaker 1: the passing game. You ask the tight ends to do
Speaker 1: a lot. Can you talk about all their responsive Well,
Speaker 1: it's said, you know, really the most diverse position on
Speaker 1: the team because they're asked to block like an offensive linement,
Speaker 1: but then run routes and catch like a wide receiver,
Speaker 1: so that you know that they have a skill set
Speaker 1: in terms of being a receivers and being out and
Speaker 1: routes all the time, but they also have the mentality
Speaker 1: of an offensive linement for what we do with those
Speaker 1: guys in the running games. So it takes real versatile
Speaker 1: players to do it, and we're real fortunate to have
Speaker 1: two really good ones in Sellic and Arts. It takes
Speaker 1: really tough guys to do it too. Brent has been
Speaker 1: here for a long time. He caught a lot of
Speaker 1: passes early in his career. He's been asked to do
Speaker 1: a lot of blocking. How has he stayed at the
Speaker 1: top of his game. He's been great. He's just really
Speaker 1: a selfless leader in terms of whatever we ask him
Speaker 1: to do for the good of the team and what
Speaker 1: it will help us to win football games. He could
Speaker 1: care less. If he has zero catches and blocks well
Speaker 1: in the run game, then he's happy. He's all about
Speaker 1: just winning and really the ultimate teammate. And it seems
Speaker 1: like Zach is that way too, particularly blocking. And I
Speaker 1: wonder when you drafted Zach the kids who come out
Speaker 1: of college so they get a lot of time to
Speaker 1: hone their blocking skills. Well, I think Zach did you
Speaker 1: know he came from a really good football program at
Speaker 1: Stanford that's known for their tight ends, playing multiple tight
Speaker 1: ends and running the football. So you know what David
Speaker 1: Shad does when with that whole team at Stanford, it
Speaker 1: really prepares especially at the tight ends to play in
Speaker 1: the National Football League. Ship. You got a lot from
Speaker 1: Nelson Agelore back from the injury on Sunday. Where is
Speaker 1: he in his developments? Um, he's coming along. He obviously
Speaker 1: missed a couple of games with the ankle sprain. Um
Speaker 1: you know really had worked very hard at his rehab
Speaker 1: in terms of being able to get back. It was
Speaker 1: great to get him back out in the field, give
Speaker 1: us another weapon out wide. Um contributed, But we expect
Speaker 1: even more of him out of this week because I
Speaker 1: think he'll be just a little bit more healthy than
Speaker 1: he was last week. The NFL is a long season,
Speaker 1: highs and lows. How does the team respond after? What
Speaker 1: have you seen from the team? They were great, We
Speaker 1: had a great day at training today. They know, you know,
Speaker 1: every week is its own unfolds in its own individual way.
Speaker 1: It's it's really its own season, so to speak. And uh,
Speaker 1: you know, they came back today there you know, they
Speaker 1: understand what happened and one point loss to Miami, but
Speaker 1: the you know, the big things. You can't let Miami
Speaker 1: beat him twice. They came back out today and their
Speaker 1: sole focus is on Tampa Bay and they're to a man,
Speaker 1: they still the goal is still there for this football team.
Speaker 1: The goals that you set out at the beginning of
Speaker 1: the season, well, our goals very simple, is to win
Speaker 1: every game each week. And that's all we're really concerned
Speaker 1: with them. We have only one game this week to
Speaker 1: prepare for. That's Tampa Bay, and that's what those guys
Speaker 1: are doing. Thank you very much, coach. Good look against
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay. Pair small frides with your favorite for two

Speaker 1: Dave Spidero, Joe to camera. We're here every Monday through
Speaker 1: Friday at five o'clock on Philadelphia Eagles dot Com. You know,
Speaker 1: one of the injuries that has been talked about a
Speaker 1: lot previously to this week, but not discussed as much
Speaker 1: is Jason Peters, who looked like he would try try
Speaker 1: to give a go on Sunday against Miami, did not
Speaker 1: not practicing on Wednesday. You hope he's back on the
Speaker 1: field on Thursday and in the lineup on Sunday without
Speaker 1: Jason Peters. Joe, this offensive line a really good game
Speaker 1: in Dallas and a really not so good game against Miami. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's kind of a strange one. It's a little bit
Speaker 1: of a conundrum day because I think in many ways
Speaker 1: it defied logic that the Eagles played their best offensive
Speaker 1: line football this season in some of the games Jason
Speaker 1: Peters miss. Now it's no knock against Jason Peters. I
Speaker 1: think the group came together and you go back to
Speaker 1: three or four games ago, they really had progressed in
Speaker 1: it was really to their credit, and I think Chip
Speaker 1: was doing things schematically that we're helping them out and
Speaker 1: getting the quarterback out of the pocket more and all
Speaker 1: that sort of stuff. But they really had played better football.
Speaker 1: Last week they took a big step back. Now, I
Speaker 1: will say there's there are moments when you've got a
Speaker 1: credit the opposition, and Dave, this is one. And this
Speaker 1: isn't to let the Eagles off the Hulk. We'll get
Speaker 1: to it in a moment. But in dom Nickinsue played
Speaker 1: an absolute all world game on Sunday, all right. I mean, look,
Speaker 1: the guy's a potential Hall of Famer. You know, he's
Speaker 1: got a shot. He played a Hall of Fame type
Speaker 1: game and he was an incredibly disruptive force. So you
Speaker 1: got to understand the context of that as far as
Speaker 1: the opponent. With that said, the offensive line did struggle,
Speaker 1: and there it was more than just Sue. And there
Speaker 1: were plays including you know, the final play of the
Speaker 1: game were essentially Sam Bradford and no time and you'll
Speaker 1: throw it short to Jordan mad You no time. That's
Speaker 1: not Sam Bradford, Mark Sanchez. That's not Sanchez's fault. It's
Speaker 1: not Jordan matthews fault. There was no time it was
Speaker 1: because you know, a lineman got beat. So I think
Speaker 1: to address what you're talking about, Dave, getting Peter's back,
Speaker 1: We've always known all along. Getting Peter's back is the
Speaker 1: objective clearly, and putting him in there and having the
Speaker 1: rest of the line filter out and obviously having then
Speaker 1: that new group play together is clearly what gives the
Speaker 1: Eagles the best chance to Yeah, so we will find
Speaker 1: out as the week goes along about Jason Peters and
Speaker 1: Connor Barrowin as well on the defensive side. A lot
Speaker 1: of injury questions with the Eagles and every team in
Speaker 1: the NFL. Amrosso's on the menu segment What's ahead for
Speaker 1: us on Eagles three sixty on Thursday, Glenn mcnow in
Speaker 1: studio with me. We get his bold predictions, as outlandish
Speaker 1: and completely wrong as they may be, it's a lot
Speaker 1: of fun. We go behind enemy lines and talk to
Speaker 1: Jenna Lane from Sports Talk Florida. Merrill Reese also joins
Speaker 1: us in studio. I'm sure it was a tough week
Speaker 1: for Merrill after that very difficult loss against the Miami
Speaker 1: Dolphins and a lot lot more to get too. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and there look, there's a lot up ahead. There's still
Speaker 1: a great opportunity for the Eagles. As we know, it's
Speaker 1: a mediocre division. It's in the Eagles hands. I mean,
Speaker 1: I think that's the one thing that's good. It's in
Speaker 1: the Eagles hands. I know a lot of people right
Speaker 1: now very frustrated. Look, here's the bottom line, and a
Speaker 1: couple of days Eagles play the game. If they win
Speaker 1: the game, five and five tie for the division league.
Speaker 1: You know, now you got a shot six games sprint
Speaker 1: to the end. If you lose, you're not out of it.
Speaker 1: You're a game behind with six to go, You're still
Speaker 1: in it. But it's bad, it's bad business, especially knowing
Speaker 1: New England's coming up. That's this is mathematically not a
Speaker 1: must win game, but it is a really have to
Speaker 1: have game. It is, and I think in a lot
Speaker 1: of ways that it's also about because if you lose
Speaker 1: back to back to Miami and Tampa Bay, who look,
Speaker 1: they're they're not going to finish two and fourteen, they're
Speaker 1: not going to finish five and eleven. But they're not
Speaker 1: quality football teams at some point. In order to have
Speaker 1: a viable shot to do something, you have to be
Speaker 1: able to take care of the teams that just aren't
Speaker 1: really that good, and that is one of them. Coming
Speaker 1: into town on Sunday to Tampa Bay Buckers, a young,
Speaker 1: developing team playing with a lot of confidence. We'll see
Speaker 1: how the Eagles fair. We thank you for joining us
Speaker 1: here on Eagles three sixty today. For Jody Camera, I'm
Speaker 1: Dave Spidero. We tell you hey, have a great Eagles Day. Everybody. Okay,
