WEBVTT - Postgame Show: Eagles Lose 37-31 vs the Dolphins 0:00:02.720 --> 0:00:06.280 Eagles Entertainment. Okay, a beautiful day in South Florida, but 0:00:06.400 --> 0:00:08.760 not a beautiful day for the Eagles, who falled to 0:00:08.800 --> 0:00:11.680 the Dolphins. Thirty seven thirty one is your final score. 0:00:11.720 --> 0:00:13.760 We are here to break it all down on the 0:00:13.800 --> 0:00:16.920 postgame show, presented by Rico Amy Campbell as always, joined 0:00:16.960 --> 0:00:19.919 by Ike Grease and Fran Duffy. A lot to talk 0:00:19.960 --> 0:00:24.279 about here, kind of a shocking game. We talked about 0:00:24.320 --> 0:00:28.120 Fran before the game that this is a dangerous Dolphins team, 0:00:28.120 --> 0:00:31.440 not to be underestimated. And Ryan Fitzpatrick once again has 0:00:31.560 --> 0:00:34.519 never lost to the Eagles. Initial thoughts coming out of 0:00:34.520 --> 0:00:39.360 this one, I mean, that's dumbfounded. You were just that 0:00:39.440 --> 0:00:42.400 last stat is it's crazy. You know, we talked about 0:00:42.440 --> 0:00:44.640 this is a team that was competing. They were not 0:00:44.760 --> 0:00:47.360 the team that was tanking that everybody in the national 0:00:47.400 --> 0:00:49.479 media wanted it to seem like over the first three 0:00:49.560 --> 0:00:50.960 quarters of the season. This is a team that was 0:00:51.000 --> 0:00:53.040 battling to win. They had won two of their last 0:00:53.040 --> 0:00:56.240 four coming into the game. Eagles just couldn't get done. 0:00:56.240 --> 0:00:58.279 Defense had not was not the defense that we had 0:00:58.280 --> 0:01:00.880 seen over the last four or five weeks. You know, 0:01:01.000 --> 0:01:02.480 give up that money point it was one of a 0:01:02.520 --> 0:01:04.959 five straight drive, so they scored touchdowns six straight drives, 0:01:05.000 --> 0:01:07.800 so they scored touchdowns for Miami. It's tough to win 0:01:07.840 --> 0:01:09.760 that way. Miami scores the most points that they had 0:01:09.800 --> 0:01:12.520 scored all season long in this month and the Eagle's 0:01:12.560 --> 0:01:15.520 fault to five and seven. Yeah, just real surprising. You know, 0:01:15.600 --> 0:01:18.240 Fran touched on the defense, the defense which had played 0:01:18.240 --> 0:01:21.520 so well over the last month, getting everybody back, getting 0:01:21.560 --> 0:01:25.240 everybody healthy, Jim Schwartz being able to go deep into 0:01:25.280 --> 0:01:29.080 its playbook, being able to play man coverage against you know, 0:01:29.120 --> 0:01:31.520 the last four teens with some pretty good quarterbacks and 0:01:31.600 --> 0:01:35.560 mixed in there. I'm a little surprised today that Ryan Fitzpatrick, 0:01:35.640 --> 0:01:38.759 DeVante Parker able to have a type of success they 0:01:38.800 --> 0:01:42.560 were able to have today. Ryan Fitzpatrick very familiar going 0:01:42.640 --> 0:01:45.920 up against this Eagle secondary. This personnel sort of knows 0:01:45.959 --> 0:01:49.120 what works against them. Obviously last year with Tampa being 0:01:49.120 --> 0:01:51.559 able to throw the ball up to guys like Mike Evans, 0:01:51.640 --> 0:01:55.400 Chris Godwin's big guys, giving his guys an opportunity to 0:01:55.400 --> 0:01:58.720 make plays. You know, that chemistry with DeVante Parker show 0:01:58.800 --> 0:02:01.680 today where it really not the Devonte Parker had a 0:02:01.680 --> 0:02:05.400 lot of open windows to be able to complete balls 0:02:05.440 --> 0:02:08.760 there just going up and catching fifty fifty balls over 0:02:08.840 --> 0:02:10.959 the top of dbs. I mean, he had a career 0:02:11.040 --> 0:02:14.720 day today one hundred and fifteen nine yards on seven catches. 0:02:14.840 --> 0:02:17.160 So that just tells you we averaged twenty two point 0:02:17.200 --> 0:02:19.880 seven yards per catch, two touchdowns in a lot of 0:02:19.880 --> 0:02:22.680 show stopping moments there. One thing that really stood out 0:02:22.720 --> 0:02:24.880 to me is the Eagles were very much in this. 0:02:25.000 --> 0:02:26.799 They had the lead, they had a two touchdown lead, 0:02:26.800 --> 0:02:29.440 and weren't able to put this team away. They score 0:02:29.520 --> 0:02:31.960 going into half, they score on the first possession coming 0:02:31.960 --> 0:02:34.360 out of the half. What changed after that that they 0:02:34.360 --> 0:02:36.639 weren't able to get anything going after that, and they 0:02:36.639 --> 0:02:39.040 really couldn't stop the bleeding on defense. Yeah, I mean 0:02:39.200 --> 0:02:42.320 the big thing was defensively, they certainly could not get 0:02:42.320 --> 0:02:44.799 a stop in that certain I mean outside of the 0:02:44.880 --> 0:02:46.680 drive where they took a kneel at the end of 0:02:46.680 --> 0:02:49.000 the first half. I had mentioned earlier they had scored 0:02:49.040 --> 0:02:51.920 on five or six drives touchdowns in a row, So 0:02:51.960 --> 0:02:55.960 the defense couldn't get a stop. Offensively, they were before 0:02:56.000 --> 0:02:57.320 me pretty well you mentioned. I mean that was a 0:02:57.360 --> 0:02:59.760 big thing to go into halftime, say okay, we're gonna 0:02:59.760 --> 0:03:02.640 score touchdown before half. Come out going a nice drive 0:03:02.639 --> 0:03:05.440 and score it, then reach the end zone again. You know, 0:03:05.480 --> 0:03:07.160 after that, they had a couple of drives that just 0:03:07.200 --> 0:03:09.880 did that couldn't get going. Uh, you know, some incompletions 0:03:09.960 --> 0:03:12.360 down the field. I thought Carson went overall in this game, 0:03:12.480 --> 0:03:15.639 did a nice job getting later in the progression, was patient. 0:03:16.000 --> 0:03:18.080 You saw checkdowns, you saw a lot of the things 0:03:18.080 --> 0:03:19.600 that you know, I think a lot of fans were 0:03:19.600 --> 0:03:22.359 clamoring for what even coach Peterson, Doug Peterson had said, 0:03:22.440 --> 0:03:24.360 you know, let the offense work for you. He was 0:03:24.440 --> 0:03:27.079 playing too that. Then you just had some in completions 0:03:27.160 --> 0:03:29.720 late in the game. The run game couldn't really get going. 0:03:29.760 --> 0:03:31.760 There were some flashes of it, but not enough to 0:03:32.080 --> 0:03:35.640 sustain and keep the clock and keep the football on 0:03:35.680 --> 0:03:37.320 both sides. They just did not do enough to win 0:03:37.360 --> 0:03:40.320 this game. Yeah, and I thought, you know, listen, when 0:03:40.440 --> 0:03:43.280 when you're a struggling team coming all two straight losses 0:03:43.320 --> 0:03:47.000 like the Eagles are, you know, you had very small 0:03:47.080 --> 0:03:50.200 room for aram, right, and so while they starting to 0:03:50.280 --> 0:03:53.520 play almost a perfect first half, were coming out in 0:03:53.560 --> 0:03:56.800 the second half after that first touchdown the opening drive. 0:03:57.120 --> 0:04:00.720 Some of their bugaboos showed their heads again. You know passes, 0:04:01.080 --> 0:04:04.320 you know, overthrows, you know where Carson was sort of 0:04:04.360 --> 0:04:06.200 volved where he missed some guys that was open. I 0:04:06.240 --> 0:04:08.760 thought he missed al Sean on a deep throw where 0:04:08.760 --> 0:04:11.800 al Sean was wide open down the field. Zach Ertz 0:04:12.040 --> 0:04:15.720 couple key drops there where he was where Carson put 0:04:15.800 --> 0:04:18.200 some nice throws in there, But you don't necessarily hold 0:04:18.240 --> 0:04:22.560 onto the ball. Also, penonies, false starts, holding calls down 0:04:22.600 --> 0:04:24.800 in the red zone to sort of backed you out 0:04:24.800 --> 0:04:27.240 of field goal range as well as took you out 0:04:27.240 --> 0:04:32.200 of deeper territory as far as being able to score there. 0:04:32.520 --> 0:04:34.880 Those are things that in the second half they weren't 0:04:34.920 --> 0:04:36.640 doing in the first half. They showed up in the 0:04:36.680 --> 0:04:39.359 second half, and it's riley. They struggled to put points 0:04:39.360 --> 0:04:41.159 on the board in the second half, whereas in the 0:04:41.200 --> 0:04:44.200 first half I thought they played almost a flawless first 0:04:44.200 --> 0:04:46.200 half where they were able to move the ball up 0:04:46.240 --> 0:04:49.240 and down the field. Yeah, both teams penalized a lot 0:04:49.240 --> 0:04:52.039 in this one. Philadelphia ten penalties for ninety one yards 0:04:52.080 --> 0:04:53.479 and that was on both sides of the ball. Like 0:04:53.520 --> 0:04:56.719 you mentioned, Miami seven for fifty nine. Not as many 0:04:56.800 --> 0:04:58.960 yards there, but still I think with the Eagles to 0:04:59.120 --> 0:05:02.080 what you saw was critical timing with some of those 0:05:02.120 --> 0:05:05.280 penalties that were drive killers for them or drive extenders 0:05:05.320 --> 0:05:07.960 for Miami. Yeah, you saw the personal foul late in 0:05:07.960 --> 0:05:09.960 the game, a couple of late hits on Ryan Fitzpatrick 0:05:10.440 --> 0:05:13.400 that certainly helped extend drives and propel them into the 0:05:13.480 --> 0:05:16.560 end zone. Some pass interference penalties that went both ways, 0:05:17.040 --> 0:05:20.400 offensive PI, defensive PI. It was just one of those 0:05:20.400 --> 0:05:22.360 games and you kind of had a sense early on, 0:05:22.600 --> 0:05:25.000 like after they had that that fourth and four for 0:05:25.040 --> 0:05:27.520 a touchdown to Vante Parker, where all right, like, this 0:05:27.600 --> 0:05:29.480 isn't going to be a game where you know, it's 0:05:29.480 --> 0:05:30.680 not gonna be a boat rice. The Eagles are not 0:05:30.720 --> 0:05:32.279 going to run away. Even when they took that two 0:05:32.279 --> 0:05:34.600 score lead, Miami always felt like they were in it, 0:05:34.720 --> 0:05:36.839 you know, whether it was negative plays from the Eagle side, 0:05:37.279 --> 0:05:40.080 positive plays from the from the Miami side, penalties, it 0:05:40.120 --> 0:05:42.080 was just it was a very weird game. It was 0:05:42.080 --> 0:05:45.280 a really really weird game to watch live. Interesting to 0:05:45.320 --> 0:05:47.880 see what it looks like on film tomorrow, but not 0:05:47.880 --> 0:05:50.200 not the result that people were expecting. Yeah, interested to 0:05:50.240 --> 0:05:52.280 hear kind of where some of those breakdowns were when 0:05:52.279 --> 0:05:54.360 you get to look at this a little closer. Another thing, 0:05:54.560 --> 0:05:57.160 talking about the offensive breakdown, and like you mentioned that 0:05:57.480 --> 0:05:59.480 the run game not really able to get going there 0:05:59.520 --> 0:06:03.960 that much. In terms of the breakdown, they're the Eagles 0:06:04.200 --> 0:06:08.400 ninety two rushing yards to whereas the passing yards two 0:06:08.520 --> 0:06:11.280 hundred and ninety four passing yards. So they were actually 0:06:11.279 --> 0:06:13.720 pretty successful. Actually had that was like my halftime one 0:06:13.720 --> 0:06:15.880 of my halftime notes. They're getting it done through the air, 0:06:16.120 --> 0:06:17.920 but then you kind of see that lack of balance 0:06:18.000 --> 0:06:20.280 killed them down the stretch. Yeah, I mean, listen, they 0:06:20.360 --> 0:06:22.120 ran the ball very well in the first half. I 0:06:22.120 --> 0:06:25.240 thought Males Sandras was some nice chunk plays in there, 0:06:25.240 --> 0:06:27.640 and even in the second half when they had control 0:06:27.680 --> 0:06:30.040 of the game early in the second half, the problem 0:06:30.200 --> 0:06:32.480 was is that the defense not being able to get 0:06:32.520 --> 0:06:35.480 stops Miami being on sort of that role where they 0:06:35.520 --> 0:06:40.320 score on five straight possessions. They scored touchdowns. Doug He's 0:06:40.440 --> 0:06:43.520 sensing that the game was sort of getting away from him. 0:06:43.600 --> 0:06:46.039 So you're kind of caught between do you want to 0:06:46.040 --> 0:06:49.240 go into trying to play ball control offense or do 0:06:49.279 --> 0:06:51.839 you want to remain aggressive and trying to move the 0:06:51.880 --> 0:06:55.560 ball down the field through the air, and unfortunately we 0:06:55.640 --> 0:06:59.200 had to get away from the running game because Miami 0:06:59.279 --> 0:07:02.080 did so well moving the ball through there, really putting 0:07:02.080 --> 0:07:04.520 the pressure on the Eagles offense. He's trying to keep 0:07:04.600 --> 0:07:06.839 up with them. In the second half, you saw that 0:07:06.920 --> 0:07:10.320 two touchdown score lead closed real quickly. It was twenty 0:07:10.360 --> 0:07:12.520 eight to fourteen at one point, and next thing you know, 0:07:12.840 --> 0:07:15.520 it was thirty four to twenty eight before you blinked. 0:07:15.640 --> 0:07:18.160 And that's just how fast Miami was moving the ball 0:07:18.200 --> 0:07:21.240 in chunk plays. So as an offensive play caller, you 0:07:21.280 --> 0:07:24.560 can certainly understand where Doug is sensing that the game 0:07:24.680 --> 0:07:27.160 is kind of getting away from him and he wants 0:07:27.160 --> 0:07:29.720 to sort of remain aggressive, but at the same time 0:07:29.800 --> 0:07:32.720 trying to remain balanced by trying to eat up some 0:07:32.800 --> 0:07:34.880 of that clock and give his defense a little bit 0:07:34.880 --> 0:07:37.520 of a break. One of the players that I felt was, 0:07:37.960 --> 0:07:39.280 you know, almost I don't want to say the the 0:07:39.400 --> 0:07:42.280 turning point, but the offensive p I call, you know, 0:07:42.320 --> 0:07:44.600 against the Eagles in that you know, in the third quarter, 0:07:45.160 --> 0:07:46.800 you know, he ended up being a three and out, 0:07:46.840 --> 0:07:50.160 but the offensive pass interference on Nelson Agiler on the 0:07:50.200 --> 0:07:53.880 past intended for alshon Jeffrey that was gone the other way. 0:07:54.320 --> 0:07:56.840 On the other way. It's one I think the coaching 0:07:56.880 --> 0:07:59.120 point probably for Nelson is not to stop his feet there. 0:07:59.440 --> 0:08:01.200 You're asking for the flag to be thrown. If he 0:08:01.240 --> 0:08:03.480 just runs his route, Um, you know, he's probably does 0:08:03.520 --> 0:08:05.400 not get the flag thrown him in that situation. But 0:08:05.560 --> 0:08:07.640 I think ultimately when you look at this game, just 0:08:07.720 --> 0:08:09.880 kind of looking at these third quarter drives, you know, 0:08:09.880 --> 0:08:11.760 you had a third quarter, you had a third third 0:08:11.760 --> 0:08:14.320 down sack, you had the third down penalty. The Eagles 0:08:14.400 --> 0:08:15.720 at the end of the day were pretty good on 0:08:15.760 --> 0:08:18.960 third down. There are fifty percent, but those crucial plays 0:08:19.360 --> 0:08:21.560 on third and long. I mean that that costing the 0:08:21.560 --> 0:08:23.760 game in the second half. Well yeah, go ahead, I'm 0:08:23.800 --> 0:08:26.600 just gonna say those are those are drives that if 0:08:26.640 --> 0:08:29.200 you convert on third down there, you're able to keep 0:08:29.200 --> 0:08:32.439 that Dolphins offense on the sideline as opposed to putting 0:08:32.480 --> 0:08:34.960 them back on the field and not giving your defense 0:08:35.000 --> 0:08:37.839 an opportunity to rest defense play like they were on 0:08:37.960 --> 0:08:40.720 their heels in that third and fourth quarter. Well yeah, 0:08:40.760 --> 0:08:42.840 those third down numbers on the other side, if you're 0:08:42.840 --> 0:08:45.360 looking at Miami's numbers, they were five of twelve forty 0:08:45.360 --> 0:08:47.800 two percent. But that's a little deceiving because throughout most 0:08:47.800 --> 0:08:49.839 of the game they were in the high fifty percentages 0:08:49.920 --> 0:08:51.959 on that category. They were three for three on four 0:08:52.040 --> 0:08:54.960 three for three on fourth down, and four for four 0:08:55.040 --> 0:08:57.120 in the red zone there, So you just see the 0:08:57.160 --> 0:09:00.280 difference in execution there as well. Can we talk about 0:09:00.280 --> 0:09:03.880 the trick play? What is it with the angles defense 0:09:04.320 --> 0:09:06.199 that gets full and buy a trick? I mean, and 0:09:06.240 --> 0:09:08.120 that is a trick play. I've never seen anything like 0:09:08.160 --> 0:09:12.000 that before. It was the kicker catches the touchdown from 0:09:12.040 --> 0:09:15.480 the holder for Miami to get in the end zone. There. Um, 0:09:15.480 --> 0:09:17.240 that was you know, it's kind of fun to watch. 0:09:17.240 --> 0:09:19.120 You hate that it's against you, but as a fan 0:09:19.160 --> 0:09:22.000 of the game, it was like, okay, okay, Bright, like 0:09:22.160 --> 0:09:24.839 what is your thought on that? Because as a defensive player, 0:09:24.880 --> 0:09:27.480 like if that had happened week after week at at 0:09:27.480 --> 0:09:29.600 one point you say, okay, you know, tip of the 0:09:29.600 --> 0:09:31.400 tip of the cap to to the offense. Hey, you 0:09:31.400 --> 0:09:33.280 know that's that's a that's a nice play. The play 0:09:33.360 --> 0:09:35.280 last week with Russell Wilson was a great throw on 0:09:35.320 --> 0:09:39.520 the flea flicker. This one great play design as Amy said, um. 0:09:39.600 --> 0:09:41.520 And on one side of it, you say, all right, well, 0:09:41.559 --> 0:09:43.040 you know this is how they're gonna have to score points. 0:09:43.040 --> 0:09:44.760 They gotta pull all the tricks out of their back 0:09:44.880 --> 0:09:46.000 to try and move the ball on. It's on the 0:09:46.040 --> 0:09:48.120 other side you say, this is clearly an area where 0:09:48.120 --> 0:09:49.800 they think that you know, we we are prone to 0:09:49.840 --> 0:09:51.960 giving up trick plays. As a defensive player, how do 0:09:51.960 --> 0:09:53.840 you kind of view that, Well, you gotta view it 0:09:53.920 --> 0:09:58.360 as a team views us as an unfundamental team. Right, 0:09:58.400 --> 0:10:00.640 So the way I look at that is is that 0:10:01.000 --> 0:10:05.960 those plays work when your defense lacks sort of the 0:10:06.040 --> 0:10:09.840 ability to stay fundamentally sounding there. And in the defense 0:10:09.880 --> 0:10:13.000 the principles of the defense. Defense is called like that. 0:10:13.160 --> 0:10:15.400 Even in a field goal safe, there are man and 0:10:15.520 --> 0:10:18.959 man principles in that defense. So once those plays break, 0:10:19.280 --> 0:10:22.000 you notice on all those trick plays there is a 0:10:22.000 --> 0:10:25.800 man coverage breakdown. Someone has allowed their man to run free. 0:10:26.120 --> 0:10:29.320 Same thing happened last week versus Seattle where the receiver 0:10:29.480 --> 0:10:32.400 was allowed to break free and run. Same thing happened 0:10:32.400 --> 0:10:35.920 in the New England touchdown. And in this play against 0:10:35.920 --> 0:10:38.280 the Dolphins. You know, it's a play to kind of 0:10:38.320 --> 0:10:40.880 catch you off guard because of the formation. But if 0:10:40.880 --> 0:10:43.800 you just rely on the principles of the defense and 0:10:43.840 --> 0:10:46.839 go back to your responsibilities in your defense, when that 0:10:46.960 --> 0:10:49.160 play breaks, it's just like a botch snap. When a 0:10:49.240 --> 0:10:52.000 botch snap happens, what are your principles, What are your 0:10:52.080 --> 0:10:55.440 fundamentals in that defense? What are your responsibilities? This is 0:10:55.480 --> 0:10:57.800 my man. You gotta put your eyes on your guy. 0:10:58.120 --> 0:11:00.880 What happened there is they see the all snapped to 0:11:00.960 --> 0:11:04.720 the kicker, and everybody decides I'll go getting, I'll go getting, 0:11:05.000 --> 0:11:07.719 and you leave your man uncovered. Easy play for the 0:11:07.800 --> 0:11:10.839 kicker to toss the ball to the other guy. Guy's 0:11:10.920 --> 0:11:14.640 wide open. That's that's a that's a play that's ran 0:11:14.679 --> 0:11:18.920 against a team where the opponents feel like you aren't 0:11:18.920 --> 0:11:22.199 fundamentally sound right you When once a play breaks down, 0:11:22.559 --> 0:11:25.160 there's mental breakdowns as well in that defense. So, if 0:11:25.160 --> 0:11:27.559 you're Jim Schwartzen, what is the teaching point this week 0:11:27.600 --> 0:11:29.400 when you're looking at that film? Is it is it 0:11:29.480 --> 0:11:31.760 that place specifically or are you taking those three that 0:11:31.840 --> 0:11:34.440 we saw at the last three weeks, New England, Seattle, 0:11:34.559 --> 0:11:36.839 and Today. Well, you gotta be you gotta be aware 0:11:36.920 --> 0:11:40.040 that teams are gonna attempt these type of players against you. Right, 0:11:40.120 --> 0:11:45.280 So the the I guess the responsibility and news defense 0:11:45.320 --> 0:11:47.800 would be keep your eyes on your luggage, meaning keep 0:11:47.840 --> 0:11:50.200 your eyes on your man. When that play breaks down, 0:11:50.320 --> 0:11:53.319 just plaster your guy. Trust that the other guys are 0:11:53.320 --> 0:11:56.400 going to do their job. There's always the responsibility of 0:11:56.440 --> 0:11:58.920 the pass rush to get after the quarterback, to get 0:11:58.960 --> 0:12:01.720 after the punter or the hicker when they're running a fake. 0:12:02.040 --> 0:12:04.599 When the guys are eligible to go out as receivers, 0:12:04.920 --> 0:12:07.800 there's man to man responsibilities there. You got to do 0:12:07.880 --> 0:12:10.000 your job and trust that the other guys are doing 0:12:10.040 --> 0:12:11.880 their job. Yeah, do your one to eleventh. I mean 0:12:11.960 --> 0:12:13.760 that's really they keep your eyes and your luggage thing 0:12:13.800 --> 0:12:16.280 was a term I've definitely heard, you know, throughout the 0:12:16.280 --> 0:12:19.400 course of just under talking with defensive coaches, and you know, again, 0:12:19.440 --> 0:12:21.760 that's the thing is when you are asked to play 0:12:21.840 --> 0:12:24.200 very aggressive, and that's the mentality of this Eagles team 0:12:24.240 --> 0:12:26.760 is that they're going to be very aggressive defensively, attack 0:12:26.800 --> 0:12:29.120 anything that moves. You're going to be prone to those 0:12:29.200 --> 0:12:31.600 kinds of certain kinds of those plays. You don't want 0:12:31.600 --> 0:12:33.360 it to bee through the extreme of where they're at 0:12:33.480 --> 0:12:35.520 right now, where every week it seems there's some kind 0:12:35.520 --> 0:12:37.679 of gadget that's working for you for a big play. 0:12:37.760 --> 0:12:39.960 But that's the mindset now. They just got to, you know, 0:12:40.040 --> 0:12:41.560 kind of rain it back a little bit. Like what 0:12:41.600 --> 0:12:43.200 I said, let's do them in a little bit more 0:12:43.240 --> 0:12:45.240 on the Devonte Parker matchup. I know there's going to 0:12:45.280 --> 0:12:46.760 be a lot to watch in the film with this, 0:12:46.880 --> 0:12:50.360 but you know, several different Eagles dbs on him throughout 0:12:50.400 --> 0:12:52.120 this game. It was a lot of Ronald Jarby, a 0:12:52.160 --> 0:12:55.160 little bit of Jalen Mills here and there. He continued 0:12:55.200 --> 0:12:58.200 to be successful against this Eagles secondary. What did you 0:12:58.240 --> 0:13:00.280 see that this team can build on when it comes 0:13:00.280 --> 0:13:02.400 to just stopping a big play receiver like that. I'm 0:13:02.400 --> 0:13:04.000 gonna be honest, I don't even know that the film 0:13:04.040 --> 0:13:05.760 will even tell much more than what we saw on 0:13:05.800 --> 0:13:07.560 TV because this was a guy that just went up 0:13:07.559 --> 0:13:09.520 and won. I mean it's not like they did a 0:13:09.520 --> 0:13:12.199 great job of scheming him open and he was wide 0:13:12.200 --> 0:13:14.079 open over the middle. How did that happen? Or he's 0:13:14.080 --> 0:13:16.079 wide open along the sideline? How did that happened? This 0:13:16.160 --> 0:13:17.800 was him just going up and winning. He was He's 0:13:17.800 --> 0:13:20.040 a big receiver. That's why he was a top fifteen pick. 0:13:20.240 --> 0:13:23.360 This was a career game for him. Yeah, he's gonna 0:13:23.400 --> 0:13:25.080 make a lot of money because he's pretty sure he's 0:13:25.080 --> 0:13:28.360 a free agent after the year. Yeah, it's difficult as 0:13:28.360 --> 0:13:30.480 a defense, right. You look at those plays and Jayalen 0:13:30.559 --> 0:13:33.760 Mills or Ron Darby on several of those catches, they're 0:13:33.880 --> 0:13:37.120 right there in position to make a play. That's just 0:13:37.280 --> 0:13:40.280 trust between the quarterback and the wide receiver throwing the 0:13:40.320 --> 0:13:42.880 ball up there and DeVante Parker going up there to 0:13:42.880 --> 0:13:45.600 make a play. As Franz said, it's a guy who's 0:13:45.640 --> 0:13:48.679 a former top fifteen overall pick that's been somewhat of 0:13:48.679 --> 0:13:51.200 a disappointment through out of his career. Out of his career, 0:13:51.559 --> 0:13:54.480 this being a contract year for him, he seems to 0:13:54.520 --> 0:13:56.960 be locked in. He's certainly having the best year of 0:13:57.000 --> 0:13:59.760 his career. Chose the wrong day for us as Eagles 0:13:59.760 --> 0:14:02.440 fans to have the best day of his career as 0:14:02.440 --> 0:14:05.880 a pro. But this type of talent and potential has 0:14:05.920 --> 0:14:08.920 always been in DeVante Parker. I think you're starting to 0:14:08.960 --> 0:14:12.679 see where he and Ryan Fitzpatrick are sort of getting 0:14:12.679 --> 0:14:16.559 on the same page chemistry wise, and Fitzpatrick, like I said, 0:14:16.920 --> 0:14:20.760 having familiarity going up against his secondary He knows that 0:14:20.800 --> 0:14:23.360 they're shorter and may struggle with playing the ball in 0:14:23.400 --> 0:14:25.720 the air at times. Gives this guy a chance to 0:14:25.760 --> 0:14:27.400 make a ball, make a play on the ball in 0:14:27.440 --> 0:14:30.720 the air. DeVante Parker give him credit. Came through catches 0:14:30.760 --> 0:14:33.120 to day. Yeah. Wellok, And when this game started and 0:14:33.160 --> 0:14:34.680 frant and I were talking about it in the pregame 0:14:34.680 --> 0:14:37.520 show with Ryan Fitzpatrick, you know, it's feast or famine. 0:14:37.560 --> 0:14:40.120 He could throw, you know, five touchdown, six touchdowns. He 0:14:40.160 --> 0:14:42.640 could throw five interceptions. You don't know what you're gonna get. 0:14:42.760 --> 0:14:44.360 He comes out on the first throw of the game 0:14:44.360 --> 0:14:46.920 throws an interception Torontod Darby and I'm thinking, Okay, this 0:14:46.960 --> 0:14:50.040 is this is the Ryan Fitzpatrick that's showing up today. 0:14:50.080 --> 0:14:52.240 And then that was not what we saw throughout the 0:14:52.240 --> 0:14:56.360 rest of the game. From your perspective as a defensive guy, 0:14:56.840 --> 0:15:00.880 what is it about him? Well, the biggest thing he 0:15:00.920 --> 0:15:04.600 has going for him is he's a gun slinger. Yeah, 0:15:04.760 --> 0:15:09.360 he's a fearless player. Obviously a journeyman. His faugh to 0:15:09.360 --> 0:15:11.480 stay in this league for a decade and a half 0:15:12.160 --> 0:15:15.920 has had success, a modern success, and sort of pockets 0:15:16.280 --> 0:15:20.400 of his career obviously has bounced around seventh time he 0:15:20.440 --> 0:15:24.600 faced the Eagles in a different uniform. And we've seen 0:15:24.680 --> 0:15:26.840 the best of Ryan Fitzpatrick, and we've seen a few 0:15:26.880 --> 0:15:29.000 games in there where we know he'll turn the ball over. 0:15:29.360 --> 0:15:32.880 But here's a guy who plays the game fearlessly, understands 0:15:32.920 --> 0:15:36.000 that his time in his league is borow time. He's 0:15:36.000 --> 0:15:38.520 going to make the most of his opportunities when he 0:15:38.560 --> 0:15:40.960 gets his opportunities out there. He plays with sort of 0:15:40.960 --> 0:15:44.880 a fearless, reckless sort of approach to the quarterback position. 0:15:45.160 --> 0:15:48.520 And that's that's called high stakes poker. And you know 0:15:48.600 --> 0:15:51.200 he can live by it or die by it. Unfortunately 0:15:51.240 --> 0:15:53.680 for us as Eagles fans, we've seen some of his 0:15:53.800 --> 0:15:57.840 better games in the NFL, and today he certainly had 0:15:57.880 --> 0:16:00.160 another one. To me, you know, one of the things 0:16:00.200 --> 0:16:02.240 I'm excited to see tomorrow when I watched the film 0:16:02.360 --> 0:16:05.800 is the second half the past. The first half pass 0:16:05.880 --> 0:16:08.720 rush was after Ryan Fitzpatrick. I mean, you saw it 0:16:09.000 --> 0:16:11.400 was three sass in the first half, but a few 0:16:11.480 --> 0:16:13.760 near misses as well. Derek Barnett nearly had a strip 0:16:13.800 --> 0:16:16.080 sack at one point. They had a couple really close 0:16:16.160 --> 0:16:18.480 hits just as he got rid of the football and 0:16:18.520 --> 0:16:20.720 I mentioned it on the Kickoff Show that this is 0:16:20.720 --> 0:16:22.200 the guy that wants to turn it loose. He's going 0:16:22.280 --> 0:16:24.560 to get the ball out quickly. I think when you 0:16:24.560 --> 0:16:26.080 saw in the second half, and this is what I'm 0:16:26.120 --> 0:16:28.920 interested to see, is that he felt that the rush 0:16:29.040 --> 0:16:30.960 was there. He hit the top of his drop. Ball's 0:16:31.000 --> 0:16:33.440 coming out. So the rush, that's why you tend to 0:16:33.480 --> 0:16:35.600 see a little bit more blitzing as well, because they said, 0:16:35.640 --> 0:16:36.960 you know, we gotta we have to get there fast. 0:16:37.000 --> 0:16:38.840 We have to get there fast because the ball's coming out. 0:16:39.040 --> 0:16:40.840 It's gonna be interesting to see what happened on film 0:16:40.880 --> 0:16:43.320 because to me it seemed like but it's not even 0:16:43.320 --> 0:16:45.400 what they were doing schematically to get you know, to 0:16:45.480 --> 0:16:48.040 get the negate the pass rush. This was a Fitzpatrick 0:16:48.040 --> 0:16:49.920 game of top of the drop, I'm getting rid of 0:16:49.920 --> 0:16:51.520 the football. Yeah. I think that's going to be an 0:16:51.520 --> 0:16:54.480 interesting thing that we can learn more about as as 0:16:54.520 --> 0:16:56.920 a time of folds, because, like you said, the pass 0:16:56.960 --> 0:16:59.240 rush was getting after him kind of early on, and 0:16:59.280 --> 0:17:01.760 then and then they were able to kind of get 0:17:01.760 --> 0:17:03.600 things get things going. All right, let's hear from the 0:17:03.600 --> 0:17:06.520 head coach about this one. You know, you look at you, 0:17:06.680 --> 0:17:08.720 I look back on it, and um, we just had 0:17:09.840 --> 0:17:12.800 too many inconsistent plays, didn't make enough plays to finish 0:17:12.840 --> 0:17:16.040 the game. UM. Penalties really kind of set us back 0:17:16.040 --> 0:17:19.000 a little bit. UH, lack of execution, you know, offensively 0:17:19.000 --> 0:17:21.320 on third doubt you just there were there were enough 0:17:21.320 --> 0:17:23.360 things to go around. I think I think that uh 0:17:23.560 --> 0:17:26.719 just kept us from finishing and sustaining the game. How 0:17:26.800 --> 0:17:29.600 deflating is a loss like this with so much on 0:17:29.640 --> 0:17:31.359 the line, you know, you guys have any ability to 0:17:31.400 --> 0:17:33.399 be tied for first and you come down here against 0:17:33.400 --> 0:17:35.399 the Dolphins team that's really struggling and not to be 0:17:35.440 --> 0:17:39.080 able to pull this out. Um, I'm asking a football team, listen, 0:17:39.080 --> 0:17:42.040 this is the NFL. They compete, They compete hard. UM. 0:17:42.119 --> 0:17:44.360 We knew that coming down here. I think what's deflating 0:17:44.440 --> 0:17:47.040 is the is the and the part that's disappointing. And 0:17:47.080 --> 0:17:50.719 we always control what we can control, and you know 0:17:50.800 --> 0:17:55.080 it's about us and to uh, um, you know, not 0:17:55.119 --> 0:17:58.320 to not to do the things that that we are 0:17:58.359 --> 0:18:02.080 capable of doing today. The lack of inconsistency all around 0:18:02.359 --> 0:18:06.960 you know, UM, is the most disappointing thing. Struggle on 0:18:07.000 --> 0:18:10.480 the outside with Parker, your Scott, it's a good player. 0:18:10.640 --> 0:18:14.200 He's a good player. Uh, you know, and and uh, 0:18:14.240 --> 0:18:16.680 our guys were in position, and then you know they'll 0:18:16.680 --> 0:18:18.560
