Speaker 1: Hello everyone, and welcome to Eagles three sixty Eagles insider
Speaker 1: Dave Spiderow with Glenn mac Now on this Tuesday bounce
Speaker 1: back day at an overcare complex. Eagles have turned the
Speaker 1: page are looking ahead to the New Orleans Saints on Sunday.
Speaker 1: We of course, will continue to dissect every morsel of
Speaker 1: this one and three football team and finish up our
Speaker 1: conversation about the game in Washington. And yes, my thoughts,
Speaker 1: David worried about it, like the Atlanta game, it was
Speaker 1: a game that they really had the opportunity to win.
Speaker 1: They had the ball at the fifty yard line with
Speaker 1: what seven minutes to go to the Eagles. They had
Speaker 1: Washington deep in its own zone with a couple of
Speaker 1: minutes to go. The Eagles had every chance to win
Speaker 1: this thing and they should have. And we've said that
Speaker 1: more than once. And what does it sigling about a
Speaker 1: team that does not finish off games? Okay, the playoff teams,
Speaker 1: you know, you look back, I would have loved to
Speaker 1: have had that game in October. Yeah, these are the
Speaker 1: games you put away, right, Yeah they are. And there
Speaker 1: the Eagles have really had kind of fortunate scheduling so far.
Speaker 1: They played teams with a lot of injuries. They played
Speaker 1: the Listen, Washington is not a high caliber team, Kirk
Speaker 1: Cousins at their quarterback, you had every opportunity to win
Speaker 1: that There will be tougher games down the road against
Speaker 1: much better quarterbacks. And Dave you really hope that you
Speaker 1: don't regret this. The one good side is again and
Speaker 1: I know we say this every week, but it's true.
Speaker 1: The division is so poor. The Cowboys are now more
Speaker 1: banged up. It's still kind ye there, Yeah, no, it's
Speaker 1: very much there. The Eagles have everything to play for
Speaker 1: and they start on Sunday against a Saints team that
Speaker 1: comes off a stirring victory over the Dallas Cowboys. Will
Speaker 1: take our first look at New Orleans and just a
Speaker 1: little bit, but let's get you started on the day
Speaker 1: that was for the Philadelphia Eagles. It's our Eagles three
Speaker 1: sixty update with Alex Smith. Hi everyone, I'm Alex Smith
Speaker 1: with your three sixty update. The Eagles are at one
Speaker 1: and three, and while it's not quite the record that
Speaker 1: they had hoped for four games into the season, we're
Speaker 1: able to catch up with some of the veterans inside
Speaker 1: the locker room who are with this team in twenty
Speaker 1: thirteen when the team also started one in three, but
Speaker 1: we're able to turn things around and win the NFC East.
Speaker 1: If you go back to the first year we were here,
Speaker 1: we started off one and three and we had a
Speaker 1: couple of games in there where we were really really
Speaker 1: porous at running the ball. So, you know, I think
Speaker 1: this is something that we can get corrected. That we
Speaker 1: will get corrected, and by no means as to say,
Speaker 1: you know, an end of the season type deal, which
Speaker 1: is put us kind of being portrayed out to be.
Speaker 1: But you know, I still think we have a lot
Speaker 1: of room for improvement. We have players, and once we
Speaker 1: get this thing going, we'll have it. Right. Everyone kind
Speaker 1: of just jailed at the same time. Um, Obviously we
Speaker 1: had a new scheme going in and that we never run. UM.
Speaker 1: A lot of guys were new UM and there, I mean,
Speaker 1: there are some similarities that we have the same record,
Speaker 1: but we're a very different team as well. Another veteran
Speaker 1: that we caught up with inside the locker room on
Speaker 1: the subject is linebacker Brandon Graham, who is very honest
Speaker 1: about how the team gets sick of talking to the
Speaker 1: media about the losses and how that gives them extra
Speaker 1: motivation to hit the practice field to turn things around.
Speaker 1: Everybody asking these same questions. You know, we just got
Speaker 1: tired of it, and then I think that's what we're
Speaker 1: feeling right now. We don't want to We hate to
Speaker 1: come in here after a loss and have to talk
Speaker 1: to the media. Here are these questions. I know it's
Speaker 1: y'all job, but you know, I think that's what give
Speaker 1: us that spark too, because a lot of guys we don't.
Speaker 1: We hate coming in here after a loss because we
Speaker 1: got to hear it outside when I'm going to the
Speaker 1: store stuff like that. I know, we know, trust me,
Speaker 1: we want to get it fixed. It's like everybody else.
Speaker 1: And I'm telling you it's I I'm not even gonna
Speaker 1: talk no more. I'm just I'm just working. We just
Speaker 1: we're just going to work and we see y'all. Sunday,
Speaker 1: before today's Eagles practice began, we heard from offensive coordinator
Speaker 1: Pat Shermer, who spoke about how quarterback Sam Bradford is
Speaker 1: getting more comfortable both in the system and with the
Speaker 1: weapons around him. I think he's more and more comfortable.
Speaker 1: He's becoming more and more comfortable with not only the concepts,
Speaker 1: but who's running the concepts. And I think there's been
Speaker 1: times throughout the season, and then there's been times when
Speaker 1: he was off the mark. And I think you saw,
Speaker 1: you know, periods within the game last week where we
Speaker 1: were on the mark and we caught the ball, and
Speaker 1: so I think that's what we're shooting for. But I
Speaker 1: think he's getting more and more comfortable with how we
Speaker 1: run our offense and then the guys he's thrown to.
Speaker 1: To hear all of Shermer's press conference, along with all
Speaker 1: of defensive coordinator Bill Davis's press conference, be sure to
Speaker 1: keep it right here on Philadelphia Eagles dot com for
Speaker 1: all the latest Eagles news. Thanks so much, Alex At
Speaker 1: Eagles three sixty and when we return, we're going to
Speaker 1: talk about the New Orleans Saints, big win for them
Speaker 1: on Sunday night. But next up, Glenn and I are
Speaker 1: going to talk about some adjustments that we think the
Speaker 1: Eagles should make, might make, maybe consider, get this team
Speaker 1: back on track and wins some football games. Hi, my
Speaker 1: name's Jim Taylor. I've been with back me for thirty
Speaker 1: four years. Our Lancis to brand beef is the best around.
Speaker 1: We cut our meat fresh every day and we actually
Speaker 1: have customers come from other stories just for our meat.
Speaker 1: Freshness is our number one priority. No one beats our freshness.
Speaker 1: We have the precious apple, the Christie's Lettuce fresh produces
Speaker 1: what we do. We do the best cake decorating in
Speaker 1: the area, hands down, one hundred and twenty three years strong.
Speaker 1: Come on in. You'll see the changes, you'll feel it,
Speaker 1: you'll love it. Give any more, chips, Bellas. I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: We were daydreaming about that VIP tailgate and game tickets. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that pregame sideline experience exactly. Believe in Eagles season tickets.
Speaker 1: You both had the new Instant game from the Pennsylvania Lottery. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the Eagles Instant Game with top prizes of fifty grand
Speaker 1: and second chance prizes including season tickets the Pennsylvania Lottery.
Speaker 1: Bring your dreams to life. Eagles insider Dave Spiderow with
Speaker 1: Glenn mcnow here at Eagles three sixty times to talk adjustments, suggestions.
Speaker 1: Put your coaching cap on him. All right, Well, you
Speaker 1: can't reinvent it. You can refine it, and you can
Speaker 1: do what's working well for you. And I think what's
Speaker 1: working well for them is hitting the backs out of
Speaker 1: the backfield. Short passes to the backs is working much
Speaker 1: better than running game. I think they've got to do that, Dave.
Speaker 1: I know, I said a couple of weeks ago, I
Speaker 1: wanted to see kind of some trick plays, and well,
Speaker 1: it wouldn't worked great the man he had a whole
Speaker 1: sideline to go to if he had held the ball.
Speaker 1: But I think what they need to do is kind
Speaker 1: of at least disguise more what they're gonna do. I
Speaker 1: heard Seth Joyner this morning talk about how he knows,
Speaker 1: based on how the Eagles line up, how they're going
Speaker 1: to run. I think the coach really has to try
Speaker 1: to get more diversion and one more thing I really
Speaker 1: think would help. Right now, zach Ertz has ten catches
Speaker 1: at the quarter poll, he's on pace for forty receptions.
Speaker 1: It's not going to do. You know, the best play
Speaker 1: they had last week was that touchdown pass that got
Speaker 1: called back for the illegal formation YE got against zach
Speaker 1: ERTs more involved, I'll say offensively. I hate to use
Speaker 1: the cliche, and we've heard it from the coaching staff,
Speaker 1: we've heard it from the players. The word is execute.
Speaker 1: You are not going to be able to reinvent this offense. Yes,
Speaker 1: you can simplify things, you can refine things. I am
Speaker 1: more a favor if you want to do something a
Speaker 1: little bit crazy, a little bit nutty, spreading the field
Speaker 1: and throwing the football. Working it that way, it seemed
Speaker 1: to be effective for the Eagles in the second half
Speaker 1: against the Redskins. I'm maybe considering this as a pass
Speaker 1: first offense if your line is healthy enough to help
Speaker 1: you do it. You know, they lost a lot of guys.
Speaker 1: Get the ball out quick, three step drops, get it
Speaker 1: out quickly. Give Sam Bradford some kind of pocket to
Speaker 1: throw from, okay, and then we're holding the ball would
Speaker 1: be nice as well. And what about defensively? All right, defensively,
Speaker 1: to me, it's kind of a week to week and
Speaker 1: against Drew Brees, the best thing you can do. He
Speaker 1: is really smart. Drew Brees is throwing four under touchdown
Speaker 1: passes for a reason, and he can read your defense.
Speaker 1: But Drew Brees is five ft eleven this week. What
Speaker 1: you really have to do is get the pressure up
Speaker 1: the middle. So really, if I'm Billy Davis, I'm kind
Speaker 1: of stacking the whole thing to come right up the
Speaker 1: middle on Drew brees. They can't run the ball very well,
Speaker 1: and he's and his arm is kind of her his
Speaker 1: shoulders hurting. So that's my planis to just pressure us.
Speaker 1: I think it's a really interesting challenge for the defense.
Speaker 1: I believe that the Saints are going to throw the
Speaker 1: football short intermediate. A lot of the running backs tight
Speaker 1: end here and there, throw not much down the field
Speaker 1: of Marcus Colston. So how will the Eagles cover. We've
Speaker 1: heard all summer about up at the line of scrimmage,
Speaker 1: in your face, pressure man press combinations in the secondary,
Speaker 1: and yet we really haven't seen a lot of that.
Speaker 1: We saw Washington absolutely destroy this defense. Cross routes, the
Speaker 1: shallow crosses, the screens, stuff in the flats. I expect
Speaker 1: that from New Orleans this week. And I think it
Speaker 1: might be time for Bill Davis to be really, really aggressive. Now.
Speaker 1: He blitzed on the final play the touchdown passed to
Speaker 1: Pierre our Song and Kirk Cousins executed, but it took
Speaker 1: a perfect pass to do so it might be time
Speaker 1: to unleash a little bit more. Okay, Eagles have to
Speaker 1: get more of a pass rush. Well, I understand the
Speaker 1: concept to keep your hands up, yeah, which is great,
Speaker 1: but Eagles need a little bit more in the kicka
Speaker 1: and yes they do, and stunt and again stunt up
Speaker 1: the middle because that's the best place if you're going
Speaker 1: to stop your reason. He's a Hall of Famer, but
Speaker 1: you gotta get in his face up the middle. And
Speaker 1: let's make sure everybody is clear about this. This is
Speaker 1: absolute gibberish. I was just envisioning coaches actually watching this segment. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and how Billy Davis has taken notes right now. We're
Speaker 1: just trying to find solutions just like everyone else. We
Speaker 1: want the Eagles to get back on track and get
Speaker 1: a big win on Sunday against those New Orleans Saints.
Speaker 1: Speaking of the Saints, we take our first look at
Speaker 1: New Orleans, a one in three football team coming to
Speaker 1: down on Sunday. How do they look? We're gonna find
Speaker 1: out when Eagles three to sixty comes back. With extra
Speaker 1: twenty checking from sant ANDERI you can get paid twenty
Speaker 1: dollars a month just direct deposit fifteen hundred dollars or
Speaker 1: more and paid two bills a month with the online
Speaker 1: bill pay feature. Then you can get paid twenty dollars
Speaker 1: a month. That's just the way it works, So what
Speaker 1: are you waiting for? Hundred thirty yards? Now? Bill's got
Speaker 1: a very tough lie here. Looks like we have some
Speaker 1: sort of sea monster in the water hazard here. I
Speaker 1: believe that's a cracking Bruce. It looks like he's gonna
Speaker 1: go with the nine hore. That may not be enough club. Well,
Speaker 1: he's definitely gonna lose his stroke on this whole. If
Speaker 1: you're a golf commentator, you whispered. It's what you do.
Speaker 1: If you want to say fifteen percent, I'm more on
Speaker 1: car insurance. He switched to Geico. It's what you do.
Speaker 1: This golf course is electric. I got tickets, Metro tickets.
Speaker 1: You need a Metro ticket ofalk to me, please, I
Speaker 1: don't even know he's real tickets if you know, just
Speaker 1: to touch it, this leather legit. I mean, how do
Speaker 1: we really know? It looks good? Right? No, I'm paying myself.
Speaker 1: I gotta make Does a baby need a Metro ticket,
Speaker 1: I'll give her one on me. These tickets. They're not
Speaker 1: stealing your soul. You can look at him. May no
Speaker 1: what he wants to buy tickets from a guy on
Speaker 1: the street. I don't understand. I sept to Philly. I

Speaker 1: to Eagles three sixty. Eagles insider Dave Spidero Glen mcnow
Speaker 1: with me here, and before we get into the Saints,
Speaker 1: let's take a look at the Eagles upcoming schedule. It
Speaker 1: is not an easy one for the Eagles. The upcoming
Speaker 1: schedule presented by NFL Ticket Exchange power by Ticketmaster, or
Speaker 1: the only one hundred percent verified way to buy or
Speaker 1: sell NFL tickets visit NFL ticket exchange dot com. Well, Glenn,
Speaker 1: it's the same. And then as the Giants both at
Speaker 1: Lincoln Financial Field, a chance, a chance to start the
Speaker 1: second quarter off the season really the right way? Well, yeah,
Speaker 1: you're one game behind in the division. Shockingly, at one
Speaker 1: in three, the Saints are one in three. Also, you know,
Speaker 1: I watched the Saints be Dallas the other night. They
Speaker 1: look pretty good, but the Saints are not off to
Speaker 1: a good start. They're beatable, and a lot of it
Speaker 1: is Drew Brees is not he and potentially the Giants
Speaker 1: the best team in the division. And then at Carolina undefeated.
Speaker 1: Tough game, but let's focus on the New Orleans Saints.
Speaker 1: On Sunday, Drew Breese comes marching to town and we
Speaker 1: begin at the quarterback position, Breeze and Sam Bradford. Bradford
Speaker 1: finally getting that passing game on track down the field.
Speaker 1: On Sunday, Drew Brees finally getting back on the field
Speaker 1: and leading New Orleans to the victory. Look, we've seen
Speaker 1: Drew Brees many times. Smart, accurate, good timing, doesn't make
Speaker 1: a lot of mistakes. But he has slowed down in
Speaker 1: his career. He is not the same Drew Brees we
Speaker 1: saw win a Super Bowl a few years ago. He's
Speaker 1: slowed down, and I gotta tell you he's much more
Speaker 1: prone to turnovers than he used to be. I think
Speaker 1: he had seventeen or nineteen last year. He's thrown a
Speaker 1: couple of this year. Drew Brees does that more, and
Speaker 1: probably because the rotator cough, he's lost some zip on
Speaker 1: the ball, so he's not gonna beat you on that
Speaker 1: deep out pattern. But the Eagles don't anticipate a lot
Speaker 1: of fun in games with the defensive coverages because Drew
Speaker 1: Brees knows what you're doing. It's going to come down
Speaker 1: to basic, fundamental good technique. When you have an opportunity
Speaker 1: to pick off the football, you do. So Eagles need
Speaker 1: to take advantage of some of those flutterballs that might
Speaker 1: come out of Drew Brees's hands at the running back position. Really,
Speaker 1: it's a battle of two teams with three headed monsters.
Speaker 1: We know DeMarco Murray who had the big run on Sunday,
Speaker 1: and not much more. We know Ryan Matthews didn't get
Speaker 1: a lot of touches on Sunday after the big game
Speaker 1: against the Jets, and then Darren Sproles has done a
Speaker 1: little bit of everything for this football team. With New Orleans.
Speaker 1: It's mark Ingram, it's Kerry Robinson, it's c J. Spiller
Speaker 1: who had the big catching run against Dallas. It's a
Speaker 1: kind of an interesting combination of what the Eagles do
Speaker 1: and what the Saints do. A good backfield for both teams.
Speaker 1: A good backfield. All those Saints, like Eagles, haven't run
Speaker 1: the ball. They're averaging just three point four yards a run,
Speaker 1: which is just about worse than the league. Of course,
Speaker 1: the Eagles no better. Right now, Spiller's the big play guy.
Speaker 1: He was injured, he's back. You're right. He made that
Speaker 1: big play to beat Dallas last week. He's a very
Speaker 1: dangerous guy out of the backfield. Ingram is better on
Speaker 1: catching passes than he is on running the ball, and
Speaker 1: I think that's what Breeze wants to do. They don't
Speaker 1: have much of a running game like the Eagles. They
Speaker 1: throw effectively to their back and that hurt the Eagles
Speaker 1: against Washington. That quick release, the quick throw into the flat,
Speaker 1: the shallow crosses. Linebackers, safety's huge assignment on Sunday. Now,
Speaker 1: a wide receiver for the Eagles, Jordan Matthews leads the way,
Speaker 1: but there have been some drops this season through the
Speaker 1: first quarter of the season that really has plagued the
Speaker 1: Eagles wide receivers, a group that Chip Kelly lauded entering
Speaker 1: the season depth talent, size, good group, deep group, over
Speaker 1: the boards, depth wear down. The defense really hasn't happened.
Speaker 1: Although for the Eagles on Sunday, good to see Riley
Speaker 1: Cooper go for the top, good to see Miles Austin
Speaker 1: go for the top right and Nelson Aguilar get involved
Speaker 1: on a deep play, and that's really what they gotta do.
Speaker 1: It was shocking how well they threw the deep ball
Speaker 1: last week after not being to do it all year.
Speaker 1: And I've said this every week. I want to see
Speaker 1: agwall are much more involved, and maybe that's going to happen.
Speaker 1: And for the Saints, Marcus Colston still the big threat,
Speaker 1: big body, not real fast before. He's had a great
Speaker 1: NFL career. He's had a great career. They keep thinking
Speaker 1: Brandon Cooks is gonna be their guy. He was the
Speaker 1: rookie last year. He's averaging just ten pointy eight yards
Speaker 1: a catch. They've also got Willie Sneety's a possession receiver.
Speaker 1: The Saints, other than their running backs, really don't have
Speaker 1: that deep threat that's going to kill you. They're more
Speaker 1: about short possession than they used to. And defensively, the
Speaker 1: staff that really jumps out at you with two teams
Speaker 1: whore statistically pretty even. The Saints without an interception in
Speaker 1: four games and that's kind of shocking. Now they've had
Speaker 1: some players injured. Jerryus Bird back on the field. Keenan Lewis,
Speaker 1: they're really good cornerback who back in twenty and thirteen
Speaker 1: shutdown to Seawan Jackson in the playoff win. He is
Speaker 1: back in the lineup. So the Saints a lot healthier
Speaker 1: than they were in September. Glenn, And you know, they
Speaker 1: played a good game against the Cowboys. They played a
Speaker 1: good game against the Cowboys. The Cowboys are missing a
Speaker 1: lot of guys. You can run on the Saints now.
Speaker 1: And I think we said this probably last week against Washington,
Speaker 1: but the Saints are given up four point three yards
Speaker 1: it carry. It's more than a full yard than the
Speaker 1: Eagles are giving up. We talked how much about the
Speaker 1: passing game and how that might be the future, but
Speaker 1: I really believe this is a week you can run
Speaker 1: on the Saints. And boy, wouldn't it be nice to
Speaker 1: see the Eagles get that. To see DeMarco Murray get unleashed. Yeah,
Speaker 1: early and often would be a great theme for the
Speaker 1: Eagles fans who will be in South Philadelphia on Sunday.
Speaker 1: So that's our first look at the New Orleans Saints.
Speaker 1: When we return to Eagles three sixty, we're taking a
Speaker 1: little trip down Fantasy Lane is our fantasy spin, and
Speaker 1: that's coming up next. This falling Duncan Donuts, get lost

Speaker 1: roadstreet line to my part boy Margaret frankfort Line all
Speaker 1: night time for a little fantasy football here on Eagles
Speaker 1: three sixty, and that means it's time for Alex Smith
Speaker 1: and the Guru Joe Dolan. Hi everyone, I'm Alex Smith,
Speaker 1: and welcome to another edition of Fantasy Spin, presented by
Speaker 1: Bud Light. I am joined as always by Joe Dolan,
Speaker 1: the managing editor over at Fantasy Guru dot com. Joe.
Speaker 1: Last week, the Eagles really opened things up in the
Speaker 1: passing game against Washington, showing off that vertical threat. How
Speaker 1: does that affect things in your fantasy lineup this week? Well,
Speaker 1: I'm starting to consider Sam Bradford again, Alex. To be
Speaker 1: quite honest with you, Sam Bradford said after the game
Speaker 1: against Washington that it was just kind of a look.
Speaker 1: It was a good matchup for them to attack down
Speaker 1: the field and lo and behold they did it. So
Speaker 1: far this year, the Eagles have had the misfortune of
Speaker 1: facing some pretty darn good defenses, either defenses that are
Speaker 1: better than people expected or defenses that people knew were
Speaker 1: going to be good. I don't think that's the case
Speaker 1: this week. The Saints are going to have a lot
Speaker 1: of problems defensively this year. They've already had them. I
Speaker 1: think the Eagles can get the run game going a
Speaker 1: little bit better than they have and that will of
Speaker 1: course open up things down the field. I think Sam Bradford,
Speaker 1: with four teams on by this week, is going to
Speaker 1: be a guy who's going to be in consideration for lineups,
Speaker 1: and frankly, I don't think Sam Bradford was the main
Speaker 1: reason the Eagles dropped the game against Washington last week.
Speaker 1: His level of play is getting incrementally better. I would
Speaker 1: expect to see Sam Bradford have a nice game at
Speaker 1: home against the Saints and Joe fear surprise start this week.
Speaker 1: You're going with a guy who's a little bit under
Speaker 1: the radar, but we saw him have a very nice
Speaker 1: game against the Eagles on Sunday. Yeah, it's Chris Thompson,
Speaker 1: the running back from Washington. Now, I I've been pushing
Speaker 1: Matt Jones on this program on this segment, and for
Speaker 1: the most part, I'm still pretty happy about that. But
Speaker 1: Matt Jones took a back seat against the Eagles last
Speaker 1: week because the Eagles and one of the best run
Speaker 1: defenses in the NFL. Instead, Washington deployed Chris Thompson, who's
Speaker 1: kind of their third down scatback. Receiving option. I think
Speaker 1: he's got a shot to have a nice game this
Speaker 1: week against Atlanta alex As you know, Darren Sproles and
Speaker 1: DeMarco Murray had big games as receivers against the Atlanta Falcons.
Speaker 1: They gave up a lot of catches to Shane Vereen
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago. So I think Chris Thompson's
Speaker 1: the type of running back who can really come through
Speaker 1: for you in one of the heavier buy weeks early
Speaker 1: in the season. If you are desperate for a running
Speaker 1: back in the PPR League, I think Chris Thompson could
Speaker 1: come through for you. As for your surprise fit this week,
Speaker 1: or going with the guy who's coming off a three
Speaker 1: touchdown performance, you have to explain this one, Timmy Joe. Well,
Speaker 1: it's Jeremy Hill the Cincinnati Bengals. And here's what I
Speaker 1: want people to be aware of. I'm not saying that
Speaker 1: Jeremy Hill is a guy you absolutely must bench, but
Speaker 1: if you've got some options on your bench, maybe you
Speaker 1: stash Todd Gurley and you're really excited to get Todd
Speaker 1: Gurley going. I would rather do that than play Jeremy
Speaker 1: Hill this week against Seattle, the Bengal offense has been great,
Speaker 1: but I want to point one thing out. In a
Speaker 1: three touchdown game, Jeremy Hill had only nine carries, so
Speaker 1: it's not like he was the lead back. It's not
Speaker 1: like he was the foundation of the Bengal offense. I
Speaker 1: just want people to be careful with chasing points in
Speaker 1: a bad matchup. So Jeremy Hill, I'm not saying he's
Speaker 1: worthless this week, just that you have to downgrade him
Speaker 1: and understand that even though we scored three touchdowns only
Speaker 1: nine carries last week, Giovanni Bernard still had more touches
Speaker 1: than he did and Joe last, but certainly not least
Speaker 1: give us one running back and one wide receiver. Who
Speaker 1: you're keeping an eye on this week. Well, one guy's
Speaker 1: still a free agent. That's a Mod Bradshaw, but the
Speaker 1: reports had him working out for the Colts on Monday.
Speaker 1: If Mod Bradshaw signs with the Colts, I'm very intrigued
Speaker 1: to see what this does to the value of Frank Gore.
Speaker 1: Gore has been playing in almost exclusive snap share in
Speaker 1: that backfield. They do need somebody else, and the fact
Speaker 1: that Bradshaw's really good in pass protection could mean Frank
Speaker 1: or comes off the field at third down situations, which
Speaker 1: would hurt his fantasy value. And another guy that I'm
Speaker 1: looking at this week we're actually going to see in
Speaker 1: Philadelphia is Willie Sneed, the wide receiver of the New
Speaker 1: Orleans Saints, a guy who was getting a lot of
Speaker 1: hype preseason as a receiver for the Saints with Brandon Coleman.
Speaker 1: While Coleman's snap share was higher earlier in the season,
Speaker 1: he's been gradually losing snaps and Sneed's been getting them.
Speaker 1: Sneed provides a little bit of a vertical element to

Speaker 1: the one that they will have a tough time stop for.
Speaker 1: God's the ones that are gonna be really tough. Are
Speaker 1: gonna be the offensive line, because that's if you don't
Speaker 1: have an offensive line. We know this, you can't run anything.
Speaker 1: So those subs are gonna have to step in the Tobin's,
Speaker 1: they're gonna have to step in. Those guys are gonna
Speaker 1: have to do a good job. Because I think you
Speaker 1: can overcome the defensive injuries. I do. I don't think
Speaker 1: you can overcome a bad offensive line. So this is
Speaker 1: really where the guys who spend their whole life clinging

Speaker 1: positions in practice, this is the week where those guys

Speaker 1: how the Eagles just block out all this negativity and
Speaker 1: focus on winning a football game on Sunday, to keep
Speaker 1: their ear plugs in and keep their ears glow. One
Speaker 1: thing I haven't heard to must win, Glenn. Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: a must It's been a must Winston's week one. Actually,
Speaker 1: you know what it's Here's why it's not a must
Speaker 1: win because the rest of the division is so awful
Speaker 1: and Dallas loses Dunbar and they lose Sean Lee. I
Speaker 1: know this week the Giants looked the best, David. I
Speaker 1: told you earlier. Somebody's got to win this division at
Speaker 1: nine and seven. Somebody might win this division at eight
Speaker 1: and eight. And it really still could be the EU
Speaker 1: and the in the NFC, the Packers, the Cardinals and
Speaker 1: one other Seahawks, Seahawks or the Falcons and the and
Speaker 1: the Carolina Panthers. You're not making it, and nobody else is. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you're not gonna make it. You're not gonna make it
Speaker 1: as a wildcard, but you could. You could win this division.
