Speaker 1: There. It is the big turning point in today's game.
Speaker 1: The Panthers trying to punt T J. Edwards with the block,
Speaker 1: Sean Bradley comes up with the recovery the Eagles. Jalen
Speaker 1: Hurts runs it in for his second rushing touchdown of
Speaker 1: the day. Eagles fans come on in. A win's a win,
Speaker 1: and the Eagles got it today down in Carolina. Not
Speaker 1: too pretty at times, but the Eagles find themselves back
Speaker 1: in the win column. Gabriella D. Givanni here with Fran
Speaker 1: Duffy and I Grease. Where do we start, guys, Well,
Speaker 1: victory is a victory, right. You're gonna take the wins
Speaker 1: any way that you can get them. It certainly wasn't
Speaker 1: the prettiest of games for three and a half quarters
Speaker 1: there if you're looking for explosive offensive plays coming off
Speaker 1: of the way they played last week versus Kansas City.
Speaker 1: But I gotta be honest with you, being a defensive
Speaker 1: guy and primarily a special teams guy, this game warms
Speaker 1: my heart. I mean, this was This was one of
Speaker 1: those games where the defense needed to answer the call
Speaker 1: after last week giving up touchdown after touchdown. They answered
Speaker 1: the challenge from their head coach. They came out today
Speaker 1: and they were truly the difference makers. We knew it
Speaker 1: would be a different game for the offense going up
Speaker 1: against a better defense today, so the Eagles defense needed
Speaker 1: to steal some possessions. They were able to do that,
Speaker 1: got their offense some short field position, and finally man
Speaker 1: a block punt to set up the game winning score
Speaker 1: for the Eagles. It doesn't feel as good as it should,
Speaker 1: but on the plane ride back, I guarantee you I
Speaker 1: win as a win. And that's the thing is that
Speaker 1: when you have a win like this, you can kind
Speaker 1: of look at this in two different ways, right guys.
Speaker 1: It's if you want to try and make sure you're
Speaker 1: competing at the end of the year, you need as
Speaker 1: many ws in the first half as possible. And for
Speaker 1: a new regime, a new coaching staff, having a win
Speaker 1: like this can be one of those character building wins
Speaker 1: that later on in the season you reflect back on, Hey,
Speaker 1: remember when we were down in Carolina, we never were
Speaker 1: out of it. We've stayed, we fought, we got back
Speaker 1: tooth and nail and came back and won that football game.
Speaker 1: And it took all three sides of the football it
Speaker 1: absolutely took all three sides, but starting kind of where
Speaker 1: I did on the defense, I think this was a
Speaker 1: huge bounce back game for the defense. Last week, the
Speaker 1: offense and showed up big, the defense couldn't get it done.
Speaker 1: This week, it was a little bit different. The first
Speaker 1: half felt very similar, honestly to the Dallas game, where
Speaker 1: the offense just couldn't establish a rhythm. They couldn't get
Speaker 1: things going. They looked like they were struggling with the
Speaker 1: game plan that was at hand. Some of the play
Speaker 1: calling looked difficult for them to execute. But the defense.
Speaker 1: The difference in this game in the Dallas game was
Speaker 1: the defense was able to keep digging the offense out,
Speaker 1: digging them out, digging them out until they could get
Speaker 1: something going. Yeah, and we knew that the Carolina offensive
Speaker 1: line was the week pointed this offense. Dallas had a
Speaker 1: field day getting at the Sam Donald last week, so
Speaker 1: you knew that the Eagles were gonna make some hey
Speaker 1: against this offense. It was gonna start up front, and
Speaker 1: our defensive line led the way. Jay Von Hargray every
Speaker 1: week he's in the backfield getting a sack. Fletcher got
Speaker 1: his first sack of the season Josh Swept with a
Speaker 1: sack as well, and we got turnovers once they started
Speaker 1: hitting Sam. Sam Donald became a different quarterback. Three interceptions
Speaker 1: by the Eagles cornerback duo here in this game, and
Speaker 1: the big thing for me just looking at down and
Speaker 1: I think on both sides of the football, you can
Speaker 1: look the Eagles offensively struggled on third down in this game.
Speaker 1: A lot of those third downs though, third and six,
Speaker 1: third and seven, third and nine, third and long. Right
Speaker 1: then you go to some of those big stops on
Speaker 1: third down. You mentioned the sack by Cox, the sack
Speaker 1: by Hargrave, the sack by Josh Sweat, what happened with him,
Speaker 1: They were third and long sacks. The defense a lot
Speaker 1: more success when it's not third and two, third and three,
Speaker 1: third and one, where the offense now just has to
Speaker 1: play pitch and catch underneath a lot of the buzz
Speaker 1: going into this game with Sam Donald's ability to run
Speaker 1: the ball. So far this season, we haven't seen much
Speaker 1: of what Sam Donald as a quarterback in the league
Speaker 1: has looked like. When he was in with the Jets.
Speaker 1: We've seen a little bit more of him, But like
Speaker 1: you said earlier this week, just because these rush for
Speaker 1: five touchdowns this season doesn't make him Lamar Jackson, right,
Speaker 1: But I think the good thing that the defense did
Speaker 1: today was pressuring him, pressuring him, and that's when Sam
Speaker 1: Darnold goes back to those things that he struggled with
Speaker 1: early on in his career. He throws those interceptions, and
Speaker 1: when you can stack turnovers like that, I think it
Speaker 1: creates such a momentum shift for this defense to keep
Speaker 1: coming back onto the field and just chipping away. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I thought I thought the defense did a nice job
Speaker 1: of keeping the big play off of them. They didn't
Speaker 1: get the ball thrown over their head, started creeping towards
Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage a little bit more each each series.
Speaker 1: Carolina had some success running the football. I think there
Speaker 1: were times where they were able to take advantage of
Speaker 1: some of the defenses that we were in. But I
Speaker 1: noticed that Jonathan Gaining switched some things up to date,
Speaker 1: gave Carolina some different looks. Stuff that they saw the
Speaker 1: film wasn't necessarily what they saw out there today, and
Speaker 1: I think that helped out from a coverage standpoint, that
Speaker 1: allowed our cornerbacks to at least sit back there and
Speaker 1: keep their eyes on Sam Donald felt like a little
Speaker 1: bit more cover three. We need you have a single
Speaker 1: high safety. That second safety rolled down. But I don't
Speaker 1: want to get too carried away with that until going
Speaker 1: back and watching the film. But certainly Veagles having more
Speaker 1: success being able to slow those drives down, not as
Speaker 1: many big chunk plays, both on the ground and through
Speaker 1: the air. I'm curious to see what you guys think
Speaker 1: about the linebacker play today. We talked a lot about
Speaker 1: the pressure up front, but I as though some of
Speaker 1: the struggle still came with that linebacking corps at times. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, Chumba Hover had a nice day of running
Speaker 1: the football. We still need to do a better job
Speaker 1: of getting off the blocks. Still too much catching and
Speaker 1: trying to run around blocks. And in the NFL, you
Speaker 1: do that, the offensive linemen just push you past the hole,
Speaker 1: and the running backs are so they're so smart and
Speaker 1: they're patient, they'll just wait until that lane opens up.
Speaker 1: We need to do a better job of attacking downhill,
Speaker 1: press those linemen bag in the hole, and then more importantly,
Speaker 1: get off the blocks and be able to make the tackles.
Speaker 1: Until we prove we can do that, we're gonna get
Speaker 1: those talse cracks. We're gonna get the tame same type
Speaker 1: of runs they started against the San Francisco forty nine.
Speaker 1: Is we're gonna see that every week, Yeah, no doubt.
Speaker 1: And I think that that too is the big thing
Speaker 1: when you look at this defense and how they're trying
Speaker 1: and how they try to put this thing together, is
Speaker 1: that you're gonna get some big runs, right, You're gonna
Speaker 1: get some of those tube hover to the to the
Speaker 1: outside for seven, get them out for six, get up
Speaker 1: for five. But when they throw the ball, they were
Speaker 1: able to squash down on Sam Darnold and those receivers
Speaker 1: four third and law and get off the field. And
Speaker 1: the other part of that is Jonathan Gannon, the design
Speaker 1: of this defense when they run it is to give
Speaker 1: up those type of plays. Again, it just worked to
Speaker 1: perfection to day because once Carolina got down to the
Speaker 1: red zone, they weren't scoring touchdowns. You know, once they
Speaker 1: got close to them green zone, they weren't scoring touchdown.
Speaker 1: Kicked a lot of field goals today, So they moved
Speaker 1: the ball in between the twenties, but they didn't lead
Speaker 1: the touchdowns. For all right, let's measure the offensive side
Speaker 1: of the ball. Big thing that everybody was looking for
Speaker 1: this week to see how the Eagles can capitalize in
Speaker 1: the red zone, something they've struggled with the past few weeks.
Speaker 1: They can march down the field, but they could not
Speaker 1: score when it came to the red zone. So we
Speaker 1: did see some scoring in the red zone today, which
Speaker 1: was great. However, that first half, like we touched on
Speaker 1: when we opened the show, was tough for that Eagles offense. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the offense didn't really get unlocked until they had the
Speaker 1: big play to Quiz Walkings in my opinion, and then
Speaker 1: you know, Jalen was able to run that in for
Speaker 1: a touchdown. The block punt obviously set up great field
Speaker 1: position led to the game winning touchdown. Down some things
Speaker 1: to be to be corrected. From an offensive standpoint, I'm
Speaker 1: not so sure they came in with the same game
Speaker 1: plan they ran against the Kansas City Chiefs. I would
Speaker 1: have liked to have seen a little bit more of that,
Speaker 1: a little bit more throwing the ball down the field.
Speaker 1: It seemed as if Carolina was aware about the deep
Speaker 1: ball and for the most part in the first half,
Speaker 1: and they forced everything to be thrown underneath, and that
Speaker 1: makes it it just makes it hard for an offense
Speaker 1: to really score if you don't have the explosive plays.
Speaker 1: I mean, when you think about the touchdown we scored,
Speaker 1: it came from the Quiz Watkins explosive play, those eight
Speaker 1: ten play drives. Man, that's what the defense wants you
Speaker 1: to have to do in order to score. No question.
Speaker 1: We talked about that on the defensive side, and that's
Speaker 1: why the defensive identity is what it is, right because
Speaker 1: it's hard to do that on offense. I think I
Speaker 1: think the big thing early in this game, you just
Speaker 1: couldn't get Jalen Hurts into a rhythm right. And when
Speaker 1: you reflect back on the win in Atlanta even last
Speaker 1: week against Kansas City, Jalen Hurts was in that rhythm
Speaker 1: early and often, and I feel like that led to
Speaker 1: sustained success. We just didn't get that early. But like
Speaker 1: I said, after that deep ball of Quest Watkins, I
Speaker 1: thought they moved the ball really well. Last week. You know,
Speaker 1: the story was it was one of Jalen Hurts as
Speaker 1: if not his best performance so far in the league.
Speaker 1: So it seemed like two different quarterbacks. Really we're looking
Speaker 1: at from last week to this week because last week
Speaker 1: he commanded the offense, he had so much pois. His
Speaker 1: pocket presence was very, very impressive. He was throwing really
Speaker 1: good screen passes. The screen pass was not working out
Speaker 1: too well today. So it was just interesting to see
Speaker 1: coming off of the game he had last week. We
Speaker 1: talked so much about confidence in his development and his growth.
Speaker 1: I'm not saying he took a few steps back. It
Speaker 1: just was different quarterback play than we saw last week.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, welcome to the life of an NFL quarterback.
Speaker 1: It's gonna be that way from week to week. Some
Speaker 1: defenses you face, you're gonna hear your eyes are gonna
Speaker 1: pop because you want to say, man, we got a
Speaker 1: lot of opportunities to make some plays there. And then
Speaker 1: there are some defenses that you're gonna face and you're
Speaker 1: gonna find out it's gonna be tough slating today. I
Speaker 1: thought for the most part, he remained patient back there.
Speaker 1: You know, he obviously, like in every game, it's gonna
Speaker 1: be throws that he wishes he could have back. You know,
Speaker 1: guys that he may have missed that he wished he
Speaker 1: had gotten the ball too. But for the most part,
Speaker 1: I loved he never gave up, his confidence, never wavered.
Speaker 1: You saw him on the sideline, keeping his teammates head
Speaker 1: in the game, and he never held his head down.
Speaker 1: And when your quarterback has the ability to have that
Speaker 1: type of mental toughness, you're never out of the game.
Speaker 1: You could tell all he was looking for was for
Speaker 1: his defense or somebody to give him an opportunity to
Speaker 1: make a play off TJ. Edwards at the podium whatever there. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it was something that you know, we worked during all
Speaker 1: week and um, you know, we knew if we got
Speaker 1: a certain look from them, if they blocked it a
Speaker 1: certain way, that we could switch it and go do
Speaker 1: a different kind of rush. And um, I mean it
Speaker 1: just it worked out perfectly. Sean Bradley picked a hip
Speaker 1: and it was I was free. So it was just
Speaker 1: like how we drew it up. Yeah, yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: it's just it's the ultimate team sport, right. You need everybody, um,
Speaker 1: at all times to be at their best, and um,
Speaker 1: you know one side's not as well the other side.
Speaker 1: I got to pick them up just like you know,
Speaker 1: it's gonna happen other ways during another game. So um,
Speaker 1: it was really the ultimate team win. It feel great today.
Speaker 1: I'd never block a point before, so it felt it
Speaker 1: felt really good. Um, yeah, first one, so hopefully more
Speaker 1: to come time. H Yeah, No, I thought he I
Speaker 1: thought he did well. I think every day comes in
Speaker 1: with the open mindset, wants to learned as much as
Speaker 1: he can. And um, you know, I think a guy
Speaker 1: who just comes in every single day and works and
Speaker 1: works and works and wants his body to be right,
Speaker 1: and um, you know, mentally he's doing everything he can
Speaker 1: to be right for us. So uh, you know, obviously
Speaker 1: he's got a lot of a lot of talent and
Speaker 1: it's just good to see him out there healthy and
Speaker 1: running around. To be honest with him, yeah, yeah. They
Speaker 1: gave us a kind of the same look in one
Speaker 1: of our early rushes, and um, you know, we kind
Speaker 1: of just switched a couple of things up on the
Speaker 1: on the second rush and Ray we get home. So
Speaker 1: it was awesome. Yeah. No, I think we we all
Speaker 1: wanted to come in and put our best foot forward. Um.
Speaker 1: I think that, you know, the past couple of weeks
Speaker 1: has been, um, not to our standard. And you know,
Speaker 1: when you get a bunch of guys who are working
Speaker 1: towards a common goal and want to do anything they
Speaker 1: can to help improve this team, um, you know, good
Speaker 1: thing is gonna happen, and we got the right leadership,
Speaker 1: the right the right guys in this room, and um,
Speaker 1: you know it just it just goes to show what
Speaker 1: you know, hard work and keeping your mind on the
Speaker 1: right things we'll do for you. So I thought we
Speaker 1: played well today. Um, nothing, nothing too crazy. To be
Speaker 1: honest with you, I think it's just guys, you know,
Speaker 1: executing an assignment with violence, and um, knowing that we
Speaker 1: want to stop the run and we're you know, the
Speaker 1: foot off eagles. You know, we don't want to give
Speaker 1: up you know, big runs and things like that. So
Speaker 1: you know, obviously always room to improve, but just coming
Speaker 1: out there and putting our best foot forward, it felt
Speaker 1: really good today. Yeah, there was no quit, no panic.
Speaker 1: Um you know, I think that the biggest thing that
Speaker 1: can happen is start freaking out and try to switch
Speaker 1: a bunch of things up. And um, you know, I
Speaker 1: think our guys just we just hunkered down and make
Speaker 1: sure that we were doing our assignment well. And um,
Speaker 1: you know I'll played them and scored more points than them.
Speaker 1: I just think it was it was such a big
Speaker 1: team win. To be honest with you, on all phases,
Speaker 1: good sir, I appreciate you all right. That was t
Speaker 1: J Edwards. He was a difference maker today. He said,
Speaker 1: big team win. That's exactly what it was. And it's
Speaker 1: no secret who comes to town on Thursday, Tom Brady
Speaker 1: in the Buccaneers. So how important was this win today?
Speaker 1: Obviously they needed to find a way to get in
Speaker 1: the wind column. But knowing what's down the line, I know,
Speaker 1: you want to stay present and focus on what's at hand,
Speaker 1: but Thursday night comes pretty quick, Yeah, no doubt. I
Speaker 1: mean the players obviously aren't looking ahead to Thursday night.
Speaker 1: Just the very fact that they've lost three in a row.
Speaker 1: I mean, that is a terrible taste of having your
Speaker 1: mouth in the National Football Wage. Consecutive weeks with losses,
Speaker 1: it makes the weeks seem so much longer. No one's
Speaker 1: happy at home, no one's happy walking around the building.
Speaker 1: So for almost a month the Eagles have had this
Speaker 1: cloud hanging over them. So today's win is a huge
Speaker 1: win just from a mental health standpoint, right, And they
Speaker 1: needed to get a w just so they can get
Speaker 1: that confidence going again. I know the TJ said no
Speaker 1: one had lost confidence, but man, when you don't get
Speaker 1: the results you're looking for after all the work you
Speaker 1: put in, it can be deflating. So I'm sure this
Speaker 1: the rod back home is going to feel good for him.
Speaker 1: It'll be a much more of a fun riding back
Speaker 1: home than we thought it would be after those first
Speaker 1: couple quarters in this game, I think the big thing
Speaker 1: is just again and he reflected on it very early there,
Speaker 1: TJ just a full team win, having all three sides contribute,
Speaker 1: having the defense pick up the offense when in the
Speaker 1: past it's been vice versa. I think that that was
Speaker 1: important a big takeaway here for this w Something important
Speaker 1: that I thought he said was at halftime, no one panicked.
Speaker 1: Jonathan Gannon didn't panic and trying to make all kinds
Speaker 1: of adjustments, which I think the defense reflected that in
Speaker 1: the second half because they didn't really change too much
Speaker 1: up They stuck to what they planned to do. They
Speaker 1: had a better understanding what Carolina was showing them offensively,
Speaker 1: but they just stayed the pace. They stayed the course
Speaker 1: of the game and ended up working out for them. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And I thought outside of the first drive that Carolina
Speaker 1: when they had the ball to them, you know, I
Speaker 1: thought the Eagles defense played pretty well in the first
Speaker 1: half no need to make a lot of adjustments. They
Speaker 1: gave up that field goal, but the fact is they
Speaker 1: held them to a field goal once they got down there.
Speaker 1: And I thought coming out in the second half that
Speaker 1: the defensive line would start to win those battles up front,
Speaker 1: and that's really what took over. They were doing a
Speaker 1: nice job and the secondary switching up the coverages. You know,
Speaker 1: Darius got the interception in the first half, so not
Speaker 1: surprised that Jonathan Gannon didn't do a whole lot of
Speaker 1: adjustments at the half. Just fine tune some small things,
Speaker 1: but continue to get out to Sam Donald. And Sam
Speaker 1: Donald was a completely different quarterback in the second half.
Speaker 1: I thought in the first half he was too comfortable
Speaker 1: back there. Second half he never looked comfortable. I think
Speaker 1: you mentioned the getting the cloud out from over your
Speaker 1: head with the wind, and I think that definitely is
Speaker 1: applicable for the entire team. But just defensively, think about
Speaker 1: those guys kind of exercising some of these demons. Right.
Speaker 1: You had Darius Slay come up with two picks, Fletcher Cox,
Speaker 1: he gets his first sock of the season. I think
Speaker 1: the defense as a whole, we're gonna feel pretty good
Speaker 1: I think coming away from this win, it was good
Speaker 1: and he saw Josh Schutt, Barnett Williams. It was excellent
Speaker 1: to see from the defense. Looking at the other side
Speaker 1: of the offensive line, obviously still shuffling some things around.
Speaker 1: We saw Jordan my Lot at right tackles today. Andre
Speaker 1: Dillard stayed at left tackle since Jordan returned. M Definitely
Speaker 1: some struggles along that offensive line, but again we're looking
Speaker 1: at different combination week after week after week. There's there's
Speaker 1: some kinks you gotta work out, but they're rolling with
Speaker 1: the punches. Yeah, and you know, Jordan my Alta gave
Speaker 1: up a couple of sacks out there today, But I'll
Speaker 1: take my hat off to Jordan Um playing a new position.
Speaker 1: I'm sure that knee isn't one hundred percent healthy. I've
Speaker 1: had that mcl sprain before. Um. He gutted it out.
Speaker 1: He was out there, looked tough to band at the
Speaker 1: knees at times. Hasan reddick nice job getting under the
Speaker 1: blocks out there and forcing Jordan to sort of get
Speaker 1: on his heels a little bit. But I thought for
Speaker 1: the most part he battled Um. Like I said, gave
Speaker 1: up a couple of sacks, but I'll take my hat
Speaker 1: off to him. Man. He suited up and he went
Speaker 1: out there with his guys. They knew that they were
Speaker 1: short a right. We actually have to go back to
Speaker 1: the podium. DeVante Smith, Hey, y'all doing all right? Questions.
Speaker 1: Good for you guys to come back and get that win.
Speaker 1: I mean on sideline, that was talked the whole time,
Speaker 1: just keeping our heads up knowing that we was in
Speaker 1: the game. Defense played great, knowing that they was giving
Speaker 1: us opportunities. So offense, we just had to keep lifting
Speaker 1: each other up, keep keep pushing. And that's what we did. So,
Speaker 1: I mean, it feels good back and I'm gonna win
Speaker 1: inside another I mean control you control, I mean, we
Speaker 1: don't have no control over that. Just keep pushing. I mean,
Speaker 1: just keep doing what we gotta do. Um, knew that
Speaker 1: there was gonna play a lot of zero, so that
Speaker 1: was the main thing. Noting that they was gonna play
Speaker 1: a lot of zero. So we had an answer with
Speaker 1: the quick game. So just going in knowing that when
Speaker 1: they brought zero, we just had to have an answer
Speaker 1: for it. Um, just the intensity and just us being disciplined.
Speaker 1: We was killing ourselves. So it was just the whole
Speaker 1: talk was just stop killing ourselves, so to stop making
Speaker 1: a little small mistakes and just keep pushing. I mean,
Speaker 1: everybody's happen right now, exciting. Um, just just to keep going.
Speaker 1: I mean the defense they did what they did. Um,
Speaker 1: they kept m getting stops for us, and we just
Speaker 1: went out there and just execute it. So that was
Speaker 1: the whole thing. Just on one side of the ball
Speaker 1: is um doing what they got to do that they're
Speaker 1: gonna pick the other side up. And that's what they did. Mindset.
Speaker 1: I mean after the fine ball, I mean I was
Speaker 1: little mad, but I mean you gotta let it go.
Speaker 1: Game still going. You can't sit up there, Um think
Speaker 1: about that the whole time. So I mean just corrected. No,
Speaker 1: I gotta catch the ball and take it fast. So
Speaker 1: I mean nothing not control over there, just catching talking
Speaker 1: move on. So UM it was big because we needed
Speaker 1: that spark offense. We needed that big play, and that's
Speaker 1: that was what we were saying. We just need somebody
Speaker 1: to make a big play. And he stepped up and
Speaker 1: he made it. This our game. We knew it was
Speaker 1: never out of the game. Defense playing great, we just
Speaker 1: gotta score. So that was the whole thing. Just hit
Speaker 1: the defense out because they're doing everything they can't for us,
Speaker 1: so let's do it for them. Oh man, every time
Speaker 1: we was in the hold, it's just like execute, be disciplined,
Speaker 1: do your job. Um No, I mean that's that's slay,
Speaker 1: big play slay, that's what we do. Um. So, I
Speaker 1: mean he went out there, he made plays, but um
Speaker 1: after the fun but he can't talk to him and
Speaker 1: say let it go. And I mean that's what I did. So.
Speaker 1: I mean, like I said, defense played great. Gotta score.
Speaker 1: I mean, every time you go out there, it's like
Speaker 1: you have to score. But when that happened, I mean,
Speaker 1: it was a great feel position for us. It was
Speaker 1: like we gotta capitalize on it. Just everybody lifting everybody
Speaker 1: up because once again we knew we were still in
Speaker 1: the game. We knew that on offense you had small
Speaker 1: things to tune. Defense playing great, so everybody knew that
Speaker 1: we were still in games. It was just lifting each
Speaker 1: other up, all right, thought your rookie DeVante Smith, he said,
Speaker 1: we were always in the game. But I feel like
Speaker 1: the Eagles were also in the game against San Francisco,
Speaker 1: in the game against Kansas City, in the game today.
Speaker 1: But today it worked. Yeah, and I think they finally
Speaker 1: are learning how to make the plays latent games, because
Speaker 1: this is what most of the games in the NFL
Speaker 1: are like. They're going to be close games, and so
Speaker 1: it's the small things you gotta do latent games to
Speaker 1: be able to pull these wins out. And the fact
Speaker 1: that this was a complete team effort and the morale
Speaker 1: on the sideline was more of an encouraging atmosphere. The
Speaker 1: team is starting to build something. This is something you
Speaker 1: can build off. And I know we're looking at Thursday's
Speaker 1: game not to get too far ahead of ourselves, but
Speaker 1: these are the type of games that will allow you
Speaker 1: to go into those types of games. What a lot
Speaker 1: of confidence before the game starts. It validates process, right,
Speaker 1: and this football is a process oriented sport. Everything is
Speaker 1: all about the preparation and leading up in practice and
Speaker 1: all the reps, everything you do in the meeting room,
Speaker 1: everything that you do away from the field. And so
Speaker 1: to have that kind of result for look a team
Speaker 1: that you know, we talked about it all the time
Speaker 1: every single week. When you hear Jalen Hurts at the podium,
Speaker 1: here's Vante Smith at the podium, very business like, very
Speaker 1: process oriented. This kind of feeds into that mindset. Of course,
Speaker 1: he was asked about his touchdown that got taken off
Speaker 1: the board in the first half last week. The Eagles
Speaker 1: got three touchdowns taken off the board, all because of penalties. Okay,
Speaker 1: you have to lead the league in touchdowns being called back. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we're gonna go over to coach at the podium. Hey, guys,
Speaker 1: how's everybody doing. Yeah, yeah, it was. It was emotional
Speaker 1: in there, you know, just getting that getting that win
Speaker 1: and coming in there and being able to celebrate because really,
Speaker 1: what that felt like was a complete team win. And
Speaker 1: that's what it was. When one unit's down, the other
Speaker 1: units have to bring it up, and it wasn't. The
Speaker 1: defense was felt like it was up the whole game, right,
Speaker 1: They really did. They played an unbelievable game. Special teams
Speaker 1: were down a little bit early, but then they come
Speaker 1: back and make a play, and then the offense was
Speaker 1: down and then they gutted it out in the second
Speaker 1: half and some really meaningful play. So it was really again,
Speaker 1: it was just the definition of a team win. It
Speaker 1: was definition of what we talked about dog mentality. Because
Speaker 1: the offense it wasn't going good right for the offense.
Speaker 1: For a long time of that game it wasn't going good.
Speaker 1: But when they needed to make plays at the end
Speaker 1: and it was still tight, they made the plays that
Speaker 1: we needed to make there. So I'm really happy for
Speaker 1: the guys. Every guy in there should be really happy
Speaker 1: for themselves. Um. Again, it's just a great team win,
Speaker 1: you know it was. It was just what the defense
Speaker 1: was giving him right there. It was just trying to
Speaker 1: get us into a flow of the game. We weren't
Speaker 1: in a flow in the first half and so and
Speaker 1: we were doing some things where were some called runs. Um.
Speaker 1: So we went to a little bit of the quarterback
Speaker 1: read game, UM and got some good plays off of it.
Speaker 1: And so a good job by him. It really it
Speaker 1: really felt like we were in a rut all the
Speaker 1: way until that one where he pulled it right where
Speaker 1: he had the one where he pulled it around the
Speaker 1: edge and went up the left side. Um, Well, we
Speaker 1: had to quess big play before that, but um, that
Speaker 1: really helped us get going and be able to move
Speaker 1: the football. So yeah, obviously I have to go back
Speaker 1: and look at everything about what we were doing. I
Speaker 1: could tell you you know, what they were doing. They
Speaker 1: had a good game plan for us, and they and
Speaker 1: they do a good job of scheming, uh the team
Speaker 1: that they're they're playing, you know, some different unscouted looks
Speaker 1: that they gave us and that we had to adjust to.
Speaker 1: And you know, really happy with our offensive staff to
Speaker 1: get you know, especially the run game guys with a
Speaker 1: stout and Jason Michael that that kind of would feed
Speaker 1: in me a couple of really good runs that that
Speaker 1: we needed to get going a little bit in the
Speaker 1: run game. And then obviously too with what we did
Speaker 1: in the in the four minute was really good. Minus
Speaker 1: the stepping out of bounds, but the running of the
Speaker 1: football in that four minute when you had to run
Speaker 1: the football was was really was really good and well executed. Yeah,
Speaker 1: uh yeah, it was. It was incredible. The guy came
Speaker 1: free off the right side. Again, I got to see
Speaker 1: why it came free and what happened, but the guy
Speaker 1: came free on the right side and he just scrambled
Speaker 1: and made a put big play found Davante in the
Speaker 1: end zone. Guys had good spacing as an offense in
Speaker 1: the end zone and Jalen just extended to play. And
Speaker 1: I mean because that guy came as clean as you
Speaker 1: possibly could come again. I gotta see what happened. It
Speaker 1: happened fast, and I didn't see exactly what happened. My
Speaker 1: eyes were down the field. But to have a guy
Speaker 1: come that clean and be able to evade it and
Speaker 1: then get it and then make the two point conversion,
Speaker 1: that's huge because when you're up I always think this
Speaker 1: is an offense. When you're down three is an offense,
Speaker 1: you know, it's it feels different when you're down one,
Speaker 1: like you're, hey, let's go get a field, gonna win
Speaker 1: this game. It does, it feels different. I thought that's
Speaker 1: a that's a huge play, not in just the sense
Speaker 1: that you go up three, but in sense of what
Speaker 1: it feels like as an offensive coach in that scenario
Speaker 1: and an offensive player in that scenario. So really good play.
Speaker 1: By how hard conversations that you had defensive room? Would
Speaker 1: you notice that guy? What kind of adjustment? Yeah, I
Speaker 1: mean the hard at any time you have a loss,
Speaker 1: you know there's gonna be hard conversations. Shoot, when you win, like,
Speaker 1: there's gonna be hard conversations in the offensive room. Right
Speaker 1: when we watch this game. Now, we got to move
Speaker 1: on pretty quick. But when we're talking, when we're going
Speaker 1: on that plane ride home. There's gonna be hard coversations there.
Speaker 1: So the hard conversations is just being truthful with each
Speaker 1: other and holding each other uncountable no more in that.
Speaker 1: And the hard conversations doesn't mean you know, I know,
Speaker 1: I'm fiery and I'm up in your face and this
Speaker 1: and that here and there, But that doesn't mean that's
Speaker 1: what it's like and there. It can mean that sometimes,
Speaker 1: but sometimes it's just the way. It's just being honest
Speaker 1: with each other and telling the truth. But great job
Speaker 1: of just the dog mentality of our defensive players and
Speaker 1: our defensive staff. I mean, they played, they played a
Speaker 1: great game. They have three we have three turnovers, so
Speaker 1: that what it was, they have three turnovers? That how
Speaker 1: many sacks that we have three? That's it fell felt
Speaker 1: a little bit more all on third down, I mean,
Speaker 1: and then just what they were they just they just
Speaker 1: came together and played a great game. And it is
Speaker 1: and that's what this league's about. Like you're not gonna
Speaker 1: play your best game every week. It's about putting back,
Speaker 1: putting together, you know, starting again and starting again and
Speaker 1: starting again and starting again. That's dog mentality, I don't
Speaker 1: you know. And that's gonna be the same message this
Speaker 1: week to the defense and the defensive coaches. Hey, you
Speaker 1: guys played incredible. You you you won this game for us.
Speaker 1: We start again, and we start again, and we start
Speaker 1: again and we start again. Conversation. Yeah, I thought like
Speaker 1: my job at that point was we all knew it
Speaker 1: was wasn't going great. It was like, Okay, it's not
Speaker 1: growing great. Why isn't it going great? And let's get
Speaker 1: solutions instead of you know, I've said this before about
Speaker 1: my college coach Larry Harris. He was the type of
Speaker 1: guy that was in your face all week and then
Speaker 1: when the game came, he kept his composure of the
Speaker 1: entire time and made the adjustments needed to make to
Speaker 1: go and be able to do our job. And that's
Speaker 1: what I felt like. My job was a leader, like hey,
Speaker 1: I get it. And the same thing with when Miles
Speaker 1: stepped out of bounds there like he's like there there's
Speaker 1: an argument going on outside and said squash it. Next
Speaker 1: play next play, next, play, next play because and just
Speaker 1: find the solutions of it instead of me. So there
Speaker 1: was I don't want to say it was hard conversations,
Speaker 1: just like what can we do to get going that's
Speaker 1: what it was more like, and that's all We're about
Speaker 1: to be able to do that in the midst of
Speaker 1: the game. Sure, yeah, I mean when you're you're looking
Speaker 1: at your call shot, your calling plays that you thought
Speaker 1: would be good and and you know, some of the
Speaker 1: quick stuff, some of the screens. Again that that's a
Speaker 1: tribute to them and how they played us a little bit.
Speaker 1: I got so much respect for for Coach Snow and
Speaker 1: Coach Rule. They're really good, they're really good coordinators. They
Speaker 1: had a good game plan versus So we just had
Speaker 1: to switch it up a little bit. Um, you know,
Speaker 1: because we still through quick in the second we hit
Speaker 1: Davante on a slant, two slants, like so there were
Speaker 1: still some calls being being called and um that we
Speaker 1: wanted to get to. But some of that screen game
Speaker 1: they took us out of. And that's sometimes that's all
Speaker 1: you need, right is a big play, like when the
Speaker 1: defense is keeping it close like that, When the defense
Speaker 1: is keeping it close like that and keeping you in
Speaker 1: the game and keeping you in the game, keeping you
Speaker 1: in the game. You know, we know we have good
Speaker 1: playmakers on this team, explosive playmakers on this team. Like again,
Speaker 1: so it was just so much credit to the defense
Speaker 1: of keeping that close and then to hit that play
Speaker 1: that you know, almost breathe new life into the offense, right,
Speaker 1: and it's like, all right, let's go. And then you
Speaker 1: get a pass interference and then we get in on
Speaker 1: the goal line and we sneak it in and we
Speaker 1: get points there and make it make it a new game,
Speaker 1: and and just it felt different after that. So um,
Speaker 1: so that that was a big play in the game,
Speaker 1: and great job by Jail and finding it a great job.
Speaker 1: I thought Jailing overthrew him. And it was just unbelievable
Speaker 1: to see to see Quez put the burners on and
Speaker 1: go and go and track that ball. So great, great
Speaker 1: individual play by both those guys. Protection was really good,
Speaker 1: felt like on that play as well. Yeah, execution was unbelievable.
Speaker 1: I like, uh, you know, I've seen them working on
Speaker 1: that this week, um during practice during walkthrough, so well, well, uh,
Speaker 1: schemed up by by coach Clay, coach Pnunzio on coach Brown.
Speaker 1: They did a great job of scheming that play up, um,
Speaker 1: and then the players did a great job of execute
Speaker 1: and so um, it just was again that's why you practice,
Speaker 1: and that's why you walk through and that's why you
Speaker 1: do all those things because everything that comes up in
Speaker 1: those and those things comes up in the game. So
Speaker 1: great execution and again that that that again just what
Speaker 1: the defense did, what the special teams did. It really,
Speaker 1: it really, it was just a total team win. Big gosh.
Speaker 1: I just I just saw the fight all game in
Speaker 1: the and again the dog mentality of it's not going well,
Speaker 1: but just keep going, or undefense, it is going well,
Speaker 1: just keep going. And so I just saw their fight
Speaker 1: in there in there and this their next play mentality
Speaker 1: the entire game. Um, and that's what it's got to be,
Speaker 1: because it's it's sometimes you win ugly like that and
Speaker 1: that and that's just the way it is in this league.
Speaker 1: We all know that. We've all seen enough games where
Speaker 1: you there sometimes you win ugly, and but it's just
Speaker 1: a matter of keep fighting, keep going. And it was
Speaker 1: and we you know, it was emotional. It was good.
Speaker 1: It was a great win to get that. When you
Speaker 1: games are tight like that and you win that, that
Speaker 1: feels great. That's a good emotion to have. Uh, you know,
Speaker 1: we look order to getting that being able to repeat
Speaker 1: that feeling that we had in the locker room. But
Speaker 1: it's a short week against a good opponent. Um, we
Speaker 1: know we'll have a challenge just this Thursday night, all
Speaker 1: right right now? Actually yeah yeah, you know, we got
Speaker 1: a great disguise as we man, we know our first
Speaker 1: thing was like ton of confused the quarterback as much
Speaker 1: as we could. And we did that the day a little. Uh,
Speaker 1: we did that the day and um, like I said,
Speaker 1: um made the play that was coming to me that
Speaker 1: it need to be made. Man, No, I don't know.
Speaker 1: You must sat watch the game. Yeah I was. I'll
Speaker 1: follow in the whole game. Yeah what he that means
Speaker 1: because he motioned from that other side to that side,
Speaker 1: so he was on my side. I went to his side,
Speaker 1: then he motioned over to another side. Yeah yeah bo did. Um.
Speaker 1: I was just looking at that as you know, I
Speaker 1: watched football, you know, um, were watching all kind of football,
Speaker 1: like a little defenses and uh and I know for
Speaker 1: Carolina's got a great defense. So my mindset was like, hey, man,
Speaker 1: we know as a defense, they got a great defense.
Speaker 1: On the end, we gotta get a ball number two
Speaker 1: a lot, I mean number one a lot, you know,
Speaker 1: because they helped him out. You know, because like I said,
Speaker 1: they got a great defense over there, and uh, you know,
Speaker 1: we did our job try to minimize it and um,
Speaker 1: you know it was good on time of possession. You know,
Speaker 1: we try to help shorten that up for the offense
Speaker 1: to get the ball. So we did our job today
Speaker 1: and oh man, it's great. Man. It's a busy week though.
Speaker 1: Read but man, shout out to my teammates. Man for
Speaker 1: real though, because a lot of times I couldn't go
Speaker 1: to practice. H I ain't getting a lot, ain't getting reps.
Speaker 1: Kind of like that, just walking through no zoom calls.
Speaker 1: Baby board was born, and um, you know Rod and
Speaker 1: all the dB guys, Man, I asked him. I told him,
Speaker 1: like a man, I'm need every one to day. You know,
Speaker 1: I ain't prepared to watch as much as I could,
Speaker 1: you know. Uh so man, just you know I lean
Speaker 1: on no guys so well we could each other. And
Speaker 1: you know I appreciate them boys for have my back
Speaker 1: out there and put me position to make the places
Speaker 1: down to meet that second beneficial It's not it's just
Speaker 1: not beneficial to me. Is it beneficial to us as
Speaker 1: a team? Man? Uh? You know my coach, No, you know,
Speaker 1: I'll you know I love to compete, you know, So
Speaker 1: what we need me to do, I'm doing that at
Speaker 1: what I can. You know, so, uh huh isn't my
Speaker 1: best game? No? I mean I had a lot of
Speaker 1: great games. Just that the fact that you know, some
Speaker 1: of the balls I didn't get through at and I'm
Speaker 1: just just the only we considered as the best game
Speaker 1: because I got two picks. But other than that, straight
Speaker 1: what I ain't had to you know, coach, Uh, I
Speaker 1: think coaches like you know what, slave, You're gonna just
Speaker 1: let you, you know, do what you want to do.
Speaker 1: You know, you go out there and compete. You know,
Speaker 1: like I said, it's the game plan. They drew a
Speaker 1: great grand game plan and uh, I got coach, No,
Speaker 1: I want to I just want to compete. Man, whatever
Speaker 1: you need me to do, I'm gonna do it in
Speaker 1: my highsibility and um and I'm gonna do it for
Speaker 1: the team. Shot out yeah of course help you what
Speaker 1: do I mean? We're two different type of defenses. So
Speaker 1: you know I watched him because he followed DJ and um,
Speaker 1: you know song making plays you know a song with
Speaker 1: uh what I can steal from it? And you know, yeah,
Speaker 1: he over there playing great ball. So shoot, man, I
Speaker 1: learned from everybody. I'm not one of them older guys
Speaker 1: that can't look at younger guys that I can't learn
Speaker 1: from them. I couldn't learn from them. I want to guys,
Speaker 1: I want to suck. I'm just sponge. I just want
Speaker 1: to know what everybody do to win. And um, I
Speaker 1: watched him play. He kind of like, you know, control
Speaker 1: the game with him. So I said, I'm still some
Speaker 1: of this. And then um, I started controlling the game.
Speaker 1: Huh Oh. I just told him we're about that fun man.
Speaker 1: You your playmaker. Man, You're gonna make plays. Man gets
Speaker 1: gold on cat football. So I told him to be head,
Speaker 1: keep play man. We go. We're here for y'all. You know,
Speaker 1: as a team as a unit, we uh we helped
Speaker 1: each other up today and we did a great team
Speaker 1: win to day. Uh well, he ain't changed much. He
Speaker 1: ain't changed. He had to change that. What it is
Speaker 1: is that and you know it was just simple and
Speaker 1: easy for us, and um, you know, we went out
Speaker 1: there exec at a high level. And um, you know,
Speaker 1: we always been talking about takeaways. Takeaways and we see
Speaker 1: how much of affect the game. And you know, and
Speaker 1: he's been telling y'all for longest that takeaways gonna come,
Speaker 1: And now that they came, you know, say how much
Speaker 1: we affect the game? You know we're doing oh man,
Speaker 1: Like I felt like, you know, they were in a
Speaker 1: two minute situation and I felt like, uh, you know,
Speaker 1: they were trying to get the ball to you know,
Speaker 1: speed guy. Um I think to play previously before that
Speaker 1: they went to the same guy, and um, that guy
Speaker 1: has been lining up in that uh formation, you know
Speaker 1: all day. So I just kind of ready to play,
Speaker 1: you know, before it even happened, and you know made
Speaker 1: the play. I mean I really I'm following too, if
Speaker 1: you want to think about it, like, you know, he
Speaker 1: follows who he's following. You know, I got the other guy.
Speaker 1: That's how I look at it. Yeah, I mean yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, match up, you know, put your best guys
Speaker 1: against our best guys and you know, um, you know
Speaker 1: our pass rush. You know, we got a lot of
Speaker 1: guys up there, you know, so Russian coverage go together.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, I feel like, um, that's pretty much how
Speaker 1: it happens, you know. Um, you know, it's just one
Speaker 1: of those things that you know, you can't really time
Speaker 1: or put a timetable to it. You know, it's just
Speaker 1: they just occur. You know. I think we proved that
Speaker 1: for one, we're a tough team, you know that, uh
Speaker 1: you know, can fight back through anything. And uh, you
Speaker 1: know I told you guys earlier in the week, like
Speaker 1: it's still early. You know, we're still trying to iron
Speaker 1: out some kinks, man, and uh, you know we came
Speaker 1: and you know got the victory today. Man, that was huge. Man.
Speaker 1: I mean those guys getting pressure all day, you know,
Speaker 1: making that guy you know kind of throw off, throw
Speaker 1: off his back leg and you know, get him a
Speaker 1: little routed a little bit. You know, all we had
Speaker 1: to do is you know, be tight and coverage and
Speaker 1: you know, be there on the spot. Say that again,
Speaker 1: m hm um, Like like I said, like Slay, you
Speaker 1: know he's following a little bit um this week. And
Speaker 1: I think you know, we did a lot of our
Speaker 1: same things. You know that we did. You know, I
Speaker 1: can't really give you guys a game playing, but uh,
Speaker 1: I definitely think we came out of executed right. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: hi each other. I was definitely a momentum swing um
Speaker 1: when coverage and rush working together. We're trying to get
Speaker 1: to the quarterback and they picking off Boss and even
Speaker 1: the block punt. It just changed the games. Uh uh.
Speaker 1: I mean we really just had to forget about last
Speaker 1: weekend move on. This was our challenge is trying to
Speaker 1: stop Carolina, and we just wanted to a big bounce
Speaker 1: back game. It wasn't everybody yourself. I mean, it's never
Speaker 1: just me. Um We got great guys on our d line,
Speaker 1: and everybody can win, um up front, so you just
Speaker 1: make everybody's job easier to win. Everybody can win any
Speaker 1: one the once. How I man just been blessed. Uh
Speaker 1: had some layoffs. Guy, I've been looking over me um Man.
Speaker 1: Just I mean, just continue to try to work every
Speaker 1: day and get better every week. Understandings. I mean, we're
Speaker 1: just trying to get wins. Um. It's hard to win
Speaker 1: in the NFL, so anyone we can get with, y'all
Speaker 1: appreciate it. Forward like this, I don't think we really
Speaker 1: care how we win. We're just trying to win every week. Um,
Speaker 1: And we definitely needed this win head into a short week,
Speaker 1: so we just gonna try to pick up on this
Speaker 1: next week. I think everybody, just the coaches and players,
Speaker 1: we just all just happy right now. Definitely, it was
Speaker 1: great uh, with a sack end and win. It was
Speaker 1: definitely a great time to be at home. All right.
Speaker 1: We heard from a handful of players, defensive guys as
Speaker 1: we talked about the defense showed up so big today.
Speaker 1: But great to see jay Von Hargrave consistent weekend and
Speaker 1: week out. Yeah, no doubt. I mean, listen, we say
Speaker 1: it every weekend, guys. The best player on the defensive
Speaker 1: side of the football shows up every week. Just saying
Speaker 1: disruptive force, I mean, really needs to be a for
Speaker 1: from an offensive lineman standpoint as to where his number
Speaker 1: ninety seven lining up at, and they still can't block you.
Speaker 1: But I like that. Greg Olsen pointed out something that
Speaker 1: is keen. We talk a lot about Fletcher Cox and
Speaker 1: whether or not he's you know, lost his staff as
Speaker 1: a king though not having the same amount of production.
Speaker 1: But Greg Olson pointed out, and rightfully, so offensive lines
Speaker 1: are still turning their protection to number ninety one. They
Speaker 1: want to know where number ninety one is at, and
Speaker 1: so that's going to allow for jay Von Hardgrave to
Speaker 1: get those single blocks and he's taking advantage of them.
Speaker 1: So I just wanted to point out that it is
Speaker 1: a team pass rushing sort of concept and the attention
Speaker 1: that's drawn from the other guys allows for jay Von
Speaker 1: to do what he's doing. Not that he isn't a
Speaker 1: great player, but just want you to know that the
Speaker 1: other guys also are helping in his success. And to
Speaker 1: continue that point, what happened when the OFFENSEI are we're
Speaker 1: gonna slide our protection towards Javon Hargrave, well flex and
Speaker 1: he gets over the right. So absolutely, those guys playing
Speaker 1: off each other A great takeaway from today. I don't
Speaker 1: I don't think it's lost on any of those guys
Speaker 1: that they feed off of each other, that their success
Speaker 1: is determined by all of them, not just one of them. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and and the other thing I thought I thought Steven
Speaker 1: Nelson pointed out is that the pass rush helps the coverage.
Speaker 1: The coverage also helps the pass rush. So when those
Speaker 1: guys on the back end are doing a great job
Speaker 1: of making the quarterback hold the football, now our guys
Speaker 1: up front had the opportunity to get after the quarterback.
Speaker 1: So today was a great example. I have both work
Speaker 1: with each other, because once Sam Donald started getting hit,
Speaker 1: he started throwing that ball up there, and the dB
Speaker 1: started getting interceptions. You're when you're in the film room
Speaker 1: on Monday, is that something you're like yelling through through
Speaker 1: the wall at the DV. He's like, hey, hey, he's good.
Speaker 1: Give me some of that. Yeah, yeah, I mean, listen,
Speaker 1: you gotta you gotta that. That's when the cornerbacks have
Speaker 1: to recognize that, and you gotta bring donuts in for
Speaker 1: the big fellas. Donuts in for the big fellas fed
Speaker 1: out the FEEDOM Well, I think it will be interesting.
Speaker 1: You know, we've been hinting at the quick turnaround for
Speaker 1: Thursday night, but the most interesting thing I think to
Speaker 1: look out for is because of this bounce back we
Speaker 1: saw from the defense this week, how can they stack
Speaker 1: that for Thursday Night. It's got to be the guys
Speaker 1: up front. I mean, that dude playing quarterback is arguably
Speaker 1: the smartest football player ever, but he's no different from
Speaker 1: any other quarterback than if you get hits on him,
Speaker 1: it's going to affect him in the pocket. So my
Speaker 1: biggest thing is with Tom Brady, leave as many guys
Speaker 1: as you can in coverage to close some of those
Speaker 1: windows up, and you gotta get after him with the
Speaker 1: front four. And I like our chances. I like our
Speaker 1: front four especially interior guys, they're get a chance to
Speaker 1: get out to Tom Brady. He likes to step up
Speaker 1: in the pocket. Not with ninety seven to ninety one there,
Speaker 1: he won't be stepping up. That's the thing is that
Speaker 1: with Tom Brady, like you know, the area that he
Speaker 1: stays on every he's not lea. It's about trying to
Speaker 1: get to that spot. And you're gonna do it with
Speaker 1: a four man rush. You're not fooling him with any
Speaker 1: kind of blitz. Is here upfront well, and he's seen
Speaker 1: how many defenses in his career, He's seen it all.
Speaker 1: He kind of just he kind of recognized and read
Speaker 1: a defense probably better than any quarterback at this point
Speaker 1: in time. Um, And so that will definitely be a challenge.
Speaker 1: But I don't think something that is too big of
Speaker 1: a challenge for this Eagles defense. I agree, I agree. Listen,
Speaker 1: Like I said, he's like any other quarterback. If you
Speaker 1: get enough hits on him, it's gonna start to affect
Speaker 1: him back there in the pocket. And especially at the
Speaker 1: tender age of forty four, as young as he is, Um,
Speaker 1: those hits start to add up and they start to accumulate.
Speaker 1: The biggest thing for us I believe will be is
Speaker 1: how we hold up on the back end versus those
Speaker 1: skill position guys. He's about Mike Evans, Chris Godwin and
Speaker 1: potential Hall of Famer and Antonio Brown. Yeah, that's that's
Speaker 1: a lot to have to handle from a coverage standpoint,
Speaker 1: and that's that's what makes defending that Tampa offense difficult
Speaker 1: for teams, especially because it's not even just those three guys.
Speaker 1: You've got the tight ends there are a big part.
Speaker 1: It doesn't look like we'll see rot Rob Gronkowski on
Speaker 1: Thursday night, but you still have Cameron Brayton, O J. Howard,
Speaker 1: and then they can run the ball. That's the thing.
Speaker 1: Get Leonard Fronette going downhill. He's a perfect fit for
Speaker 1: what they want to do offensively. You mentioned tight ends,
Speaker 1: and I want to kind of talk about the Eagles
Speaker 1: tight ends real quick, quiet day for them. They've been
Speaker 1: very useful in this offense the past few weeks in
Speaker 1: a variety of ways. Whether it just be kind of
Speaker 1: their versatility and the ability to switch off between Zach
Speaker 1: Ertz and Dallas Goddard. Obviously both of them are great
Speaker 1: blockers as well as pass catchers, but today they weren't
Speaker 1: too involved. Yeah, I'm not sure why. Maybe the cover
Speaker 1: is dictated that Jalen goes somewhere else with the football.
Speaker 1: That can happen at times. I gotta admit, man, I'd
Speaker 1: be looking for a number eighty eight, number eighty six,
Speaker 1: big bodies, they have their catch radius, both of them
Speaker 1: pretty good shorthanded receivers. And Dallas, my goodness, once he
Speaker 1: gets the ball in his hands, I've never seen anybody
Speaker 1: where He's rarely tackled by one guy once he gets
Speaker 1: the ball in his hand. So, particularly when you get
Speaker 1: down in the red zone, you want to see the
Speaker 1: tight ends become more of a focal point. Again, I
Speaker 1: don't know if the coverage that the Panthers were playing
Speaker 1: sort of dictate that Jalen goes somewhere else with the football,
Speaker 1: But I know as a quarterback, tight ends are your
Speaker 1: safety blanket and they usually are right down those hashes,
Speaker 1: and that's what Jalen likes to throw the ball. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Dallas left a touchdown on the field with a drop
Speaker 1: late in the game. Zach Hertz was targeted early on
Speaker 1: third down, but a couple of completions there again the
Speaker 1: offense unable to get into a rhythm from a pass
Speaker 1: game standpoint, and when you're not in that rhythm, now
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you're getting off the field. Not
Speaker 1: a lot of balls going on. We're gonna head over
Speaker 1: back to the podium, Jordan Mylattagy h still need a
Speaker 1: couple more practices at the wipes. So I'm surprised you
Speaker 1: should remember that, um, but yeah, it was. It was
Speaker 1: a good outing um for the boys. Just shout up,
Speaker 1: you know what this team, what kind of character this
Speaker 1: team has, and super proud of the defense and the offense.
Speaker 1: Will fighting, you know, to the end of the game. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: next play. So that's what we said to each other.
Speaker 1: When I gave up those two sacks. He came up
Speaker 1: to me, he said next play. When he threw that pick,
Speaker 1: I said next play to him, and we just kept
Speaker 1: fighting to the end. You know. That's the one thing
Speaker 1: that coach coaches is um us. You know, perseverance, great,
Speaker 1: what kind of character? What kind of character do you
Speaker 1: want this team to have? And so is that next
Speaker 1: play mentality, next man up mentality? And I think we're
Speaker 1: gonna be just fine. Great. Yeah, it's like, yeah, I dude,
Speaker 1: it's kind of weird playing with the brace on. I
Speaker 1: feel like a robot, really stiff. Um, I'm not gonna
Speaker 1: have to watch the film. Um. I honestly thought I
Speaker 1: had some great reps. Um. You know, I felt like
Speaker 1: at home again. Um. And there were some reps where
Speaker 1: you know, I was just laid off the ball or
Speaker 1: you know, it was just so loud in there that
Speaker 1: the point was a bit confusing. We'll play we were running.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I just got to look at the film
Speaker 1: and be really hard on myself next a couple of days. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I was late. Yeah, I'm not going to route out anybody.
Speaker 1: So um yeah, see you mean Jacks. That might be
Speaker 1: a coach question. To be honest, I just say, yes, sir,
Speaker 1: go over there, do my job. Turns out we did
Speaker 1: that play like how many times? We run that like
Speaker 1: five times, and it worked five times. So yeah, it
Speaker 1: was the timeline. It was the timeline. And you know,
Speaker 1: I think when you missed out two games, you kind
Speaker 1: of just want to double down. Your coach is big
Speaker 1: on doubling down on the process, and so for me,
Speaker 1: I had to focus on what was in front of me,
Speaker 1: and that was my rehab. So I doubled down to
Speaker 1: my rehab to come back and play UM with Carolina,
Speaker 1: and so whatever the team needed, I just say yes,
Speaker 1: sir always, you know, I mean, you guys from Philly
Speaker 1: know me. Whatever the team wants me to do, they
Speaker 1: think that's best, I'll do it no matter how bad
Speaker 1: he's gone, how all these things are. Yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: it's I don't know, he's so like he's such an
Speaker 1: old soul. He's got an old head on his young shoulders.
Speaker 1: So and it shows very late in games. He's still
Speaker 1: there talking us up. The great perseverance, you know, those
Speaker 1: are qualities that he himself possess. And he's a you know,
Speaker 1: he's all all by nor Buck. You know, he talks
Speaker 1: it and he walks it. And so that's it's very
Speaker 1: encouraging to see from your QB and you just want
Speaker 1: to make sure you have his back still being your friend.
Speaker 1: But what it's right now, it's great Andrea are great friends. Um.
Speaker 1: It's funny that he's kind of more relaxed now, So
Speaker 1: I kind of I love that for him. So you know,
Speaker 1: like I said, we're good still good friends. We still
Speaker 1: have a laugh, um, even in the locker room. So yeah,
Speaker 1: initially reaction I happened late in practice. Just Scott rolled
Speaker 1: up on um. That was kind of mad at first,
Speaker 1: but then you know, those kind of things happen in
Speaker 1: practice and you just gotta take it with your stride
Speaker 1: um and so kind of just had to focus on
Speaker 1: my rehab getting back for the boys and and for
Speaker 1: this team. So yeah, that's what I did, just double
Speaker 1: down on the process. Because all right, that was your
Speaker 1: right tackle Jordan Malata, who made the switch to the
Speaker 1: other side this week, returning from injury. He says he
Speaker 1: feels good. I don't know how much information he would
Speaker 1: give otherwise at the podium, but we talked about the
Speaker 1: offensive line earlier. They've they've been through the ringer just
Speaker 1: to start the season. Unfortunately, you have to give Coatal
Speaker 1: a lot of credit for coaching up these young guys.
Speaker 1: Obviously it was a veteran offensive line to start and
Speaker 1: now he's plugged and played a lot of young guys. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and I think, listen, they look good last week versus
Speaker 1: Kansas City. This week, they gave up a couple of pressures,
Speaker 1: but Carolina is a type of defense that's going to
Speaker 1: bring extra pressure. So I wasn't totally surprised that they
Speaker 1: gave up a sack or two out there, But to
Speaker 1: your point, Jeff Stalin's did an awesome job with these
Speaker 1: young guys and they're getting valuable experience. Right, even when
Speaker 1: the veterans come back, the fact that they will have played,
Speaker 1: these young guys will have played and got the game
Speaker 1: experience that they have it bows well for the future.
Speaker 1: And the the fact that they were put in in
Speaker 1: some difficult situations. This is good experience for him, right.
Speaker 1: The best way to learn is by being out there
Speaker 1: on the field. And Jodan my Lotta just exemplified this
Speaker 1: selfless attitude on that offensive line. Willing to move the
Speaker 1: right tackle so that Andre Diller can stay comfortable over
Speaker 1: there left tackle just speaks to the type of player
Speaker 1: he is. And it never really seemed that there was
Speaker 1: a play where mentally that they weren't into right. Right.
Speaker 1: I mean that second sack that I think was attributed
Speaker 1: to Jordan Milatta. I thought Greg Olson did an excellent
Speaker 1: job on the broadcast of pointing out that the entire
Speaker 1: offensive line was late coming off the ball, so something
Speaker 1: with the operation of the snap count was a little
Speaker 1: bit off on that play. But outside of that play,
Speaker 1: you didn't see them get completely fooled by a blitz
Speaker 1: and those mental gymnastics they're going to continue to Thursday night,
Speaker 1: Todd Bowles and that defensive scheme. You know that they're
Speaker 1: one of the most blitz happy defenses in the NFL.
Speaker 1: So this offensive line, Jordan Milatta all the way across,
Speaker 1: Andre Dillard, everybody in between, they're gonna have to make
Speaker 1: sure they're on top of their game in this matchup
Speaker 1: on Thursday. And we know that the one of the
Speaker 1: hardest parts about playing offensive line is the cohesion aspect
Speaker 1: of it, and so when you're switching guys around like that. Obviously,
Speaker 1: now Andre Dillard has some comfortability on the left side.
Speaker 1: You have to remember Jordan my Latta, he just started
Speaker 1: playing left tackle and now he's playing right tackle, which
Speaker 1: there could be pros and cons to that. He wasn't
Speaker 1: so settled in one position, and so that allows him
Speaker 1: to be reverse the tile across the line. However, like
Speaker 1: you said to your point friend, there wasn't too much
Speaker 1: that was off from that offensive line, which is a
Speaker 1: huge credit to the way that these guys have worked
Speaker 1: through the offseason through camp together that they are able
Speaker 1: to step in for Lane Johnson, Brandon Brooks. They're not
Speaker 1: stepping in for no name guys, right Especially, it wasn't
Speaker 1: a game like last week. Sorry, We're like there's play
Speaker 1: action and moving the pocket and all the different screens
Speaker 1: were hitting. Like last week, you would say, oh, that
Speaker 1: the game plan was great to help the offensive line out.
Speaker 1: I didn't feel like that was necessarily case in this one,
Speaker 1: that the offensive line had to hold up and protect.
Speaker 1: There was a lot of straight drop back pass and
Speaker 1: I thought they shot up well, yeah, justin on a
Speaker 1: fly last week. Lane Johnson being a late scratch before
Speaker 1: that game. This week, the guys got a chance to
Speaker 1: practice together all week, So I think that was beneficiary
Speaker 1: to him too, that you know, you're not being thrown
Speaker 1: in and you hadn't had the chance to practice all week.
Speaker 1: At least this week they got a chance to practice
Speaker 1: as a unit. Landon Dickerson over there at left guard.
Speaker 1: He looked comfortable today. Didn't hear his number called on?
Speaker 1: I don't believe today. That's always a good thing when
Speaker 1: your number or your name isn't mentioned as an offensive linney.
Speaker 1: And hopefully as they get more time to continue to
Speaker 1: practice together, you'll see that run game start to develop.
Speaker 1: You know, there's been a lot of criticism in the
Speaker 1: past few weeks where a lack of a run game.
Speaker 1: But hopefully over time as this offensive line can get
Speaker 1: a little more settled, God willing no more injuries and
Speaker 1: hopefully if Lane Johnson is able at some point to
Speaker 1: make a return, then that run game can get going.
Speaker 1: But we're gonna head actually back to the podium when
Speaker 1: we're here from Jalen Hurts, m M, yeah, I think, Um,
Speaker 1: we're executed enough to win the game. You know, often
Speaker 1: you come, um, come back after, come back after the game,
Speaker 1: maybe you left some stuff out there on the field,
Speaker 1: and you say we didn't we didn't play well enough. Well,
Speaker 1: we didn't play to our standard today offensively, but it
Speaker 1: was enough. Um, So we're gonna go back to Filly
Speaker 1: with this win, probably not enjoyed for twenty five hours,
Speaker 1: maybe maybe twelve since we got a short week. Twelve
Speaker 1: hours and um, get back to work. We got a
Speaker 1: big one Thursday night, y'all. Guys. Um, yeah, we were
Speaker 1: just executing. Um, it was executing at its purest form.
Speaker 1: Um running to play looks don't read making it making
Speaker 1: it happens, No, sir, No, sir, I'm not. I'm not.
Speaker 1: I don't want to talk about that. I want to
Speaker 1: talk about how the defense played. How dare Slay came out, Um.
Speaker 1: You know at another you know, Munchkin to the to
Speaker 1: the bunch this week and came out here and got
Speaker 1: two two peaks, um and Nelson Um came out here
Speaker 1: and got a peek. Um. And in the clutch situation. Um.
Speaker 1: And one thing I've always been preaching, I've been preaching, Look,
Speaker 1: we control the outcome of everything. That's the mentality want
Speaker 1: to have. But I believe truly, Um, we got to
Speaker 1: have each other's back through everything. And today you know
Speaker 1: we had each other's back as a complete team win. Um.
Speaker 1: You see special teams making the plays they're making. Um,
Speaker 1: defense making the plays they're making. Um, we had each
Speaker 1: other's backs. Um Man, that's the beauty of this sport.
Speaker 1: You know, get frustrated. So I always say, never get
Speaker 1: too how I never get too low. Um. You know,
Speaker 1: whether you whether it's a good, whether it's bad, you
Speaker 1: have a dog mentality and you flush it off. I'm
Speaker 1: leaving and move forward. You know. But it's our adversion,
Speaker 1: it's our perseverance, and it's all Um, the ability overcome,
Speaker 1: you know, And and I've said it, I believe in
Speaker 1: this football team. Um, I believe in these coaches. I
Speaker 1: believe in everybody here. We have everything we need. Um,
Speaker 1: we just need to continue to grow. The process doesn't
Speaker 1: change for us. We're gonna continue to grow. UM one
Speaker 1: percent better every day. Pay I ran every day. Um,
Speaker 1: keep keep going. Far from a finish football uh, a
Speaker 1: finish foot bought team, a finished product. Far from the
Speaker 1: finished product. Like, yeah, in that situation, you know, you
Speaker 1: don't know that they're gonna um take the take the
Speaker 1: seal route and leader lead a seven route open like that.
Speaker 1: And in a situation like that, you take a shot,
Speaker 1: take a shot down the field. He gets tacking on
Speaker 1: the fire aline game. Half time is here, half's over.
Speaker 1: So it was a selling situation where we're gonna take
Speaker 1: that quick get closer to field goals range, field goal range,
Speaker 1: or sell out of the bounce. Um, And I was
Speaker 1: doing what I was closed to. Do you know you
Speaker 1: have something like that that happens yea quiz? Um, I
Speaker 1: mean I told y'all before he wasn't a secret. And um,
Speaker 1: he's a big time player, a big time play and
Speaker 1: in definitely did a lot for this football team today. UM.
Speaker 1: And once again, the defense, the way they played, UM,
Speaker 1: kept chopping at it, kept chopping at it. Offensively put
Speaker 1: ourselves in in a ton of bad, bad situations. UM,
Speaker 1: a ton to overcome, but we presevered and where we overcame.
Speaker 1: He said the same, And it made me smile. It
Speaker 1: made me smile. UM, it made me smile because it's
Speaker 1: something that I preach. UM, I gotta taste of my
Speaker 1: own medicine right there in that moment, and it felt
Speaker 1: it felt good. It felt good. UM. Next play mentality,
Speaker 1: doll mentality, And that was just that was a situation
Speaker 1: where UM, I had to I had to have some
Speaker 1: dog mentality, show some perseverance and overcome. UM. And I'm
Speaker 1: just so happy we came together and found a way
Speaker 1: to win as a football team. We we I'm telling
Speaker 1: you man, I said, I said, I said it. Now
Speaker 1: we're still very close all self inflicted wounds. Ah, So
Speaker 1: we're just gonna get continue to grow, continue to stack. Um.
Speaker 1: We got a big one this week obviously, and be
Speaker 1: ready to go back to guy faxing the stage. We
Speaker 1: go back to that guy saw that. Why do you
Speaker 1: think support to kind of establish that trust. These guys know,
Speaker 1: I have a lot of trust in them. There's no
Speaker 1: doubt in my mind by anybody on that field. Um.
Speaker 1: You know we we we control us and I think
Speaker 1: it's as simple as that. We control the interceptions, the
Speaker 1: miss throws, mishaps, miss blocks, fumbles, whatever it is, we
Speaker 1: control that. UM. So I always get questions about how
Speaker 1: do we fix it? How do we fix it? It It
Speaker 1: doesn't happen overnight, And that's the reality of life. We're
Speaker 1: gonna continue to grow, want to sit better every day, um,
Speaker 1: and keep going far from the finished product most Um,
Speaker 1: it's a perseverance. UM. No, trying to try to never
Speaker 1: get too high, too low. Um. But but I'll say
Speaker 1: what helps most in those situations, UM is the teammates
Speaker 1: and who I have around him. Um, that's the beauty body.
Speaker 1: I said, it's a team sport. We had each other's
Speaker 1: back today. UM. You know it's it's never easy versus
Speaker 1: coach rule. We had to come back, UM when I
Speaker 1: played him at Baylor. But um, they're a great, great
Speaker 1: football team. Well coach out of respect for their coaches
Speaker 1: and their players. UM, but he just find a find
Speaker 1: a way to get it done today than think, all right,
Speaker 1: that was your quarterback. Jalen hurts, he's like this in
Speaker 1: a press conference. We've seen the same tone and attitude
Speaker 1: when they lost as we did when they win. Um.
Speaker 1: But I think that's a testament to who he is
Speaker 1: as a leader. It's it's just never enough for him.
Speaker 1: He always wants more wins win. I think he accepted that,
Speaker 1: but he knows that it's a long season. There's a
Speaker 1: long way to go. Yeah, And that's what you want
Speaker 1: to hear from your leaders, right, You want to hear
Speaker 1: that type of steady calmness, the confidence when things aren't
Speaker 1: going well. He's not overly emotional, he's not pointing a finger.
Speaker 1: He's accepting all blame himself. And then when the team wins,
Speaker 1: he obviously is happy with the w but he realizes
Speaker 1: there's some things out there that they still need to
Speaker 1: improve upon and get better with. It's what you want
Speaker 1: from your quarterback, you know, just that steady calm presence
Speaker 1: always that way, you know what you're going to get
Speaker 1: versus man you don't know what you're going to get
Speaker 1: when he steps to the podium. So I like Jalen's
Speaker 1: temperament and his approach to the game. You're just thinking
Speaker 1: back to last week. Everybody was kind of raving after
Speaker 1: the game about his performance and wanted to ask about it.
Speaker 1: He was like, look like we lost as Yeah, I
Speaker 1: feel like that kind of carries over to this week
Speaker 1: where the performance the numbers weren't as great, but everyone's
Speaker 1: talking about the comeback. He's like, yeah, like we won,
Speaker 1: but we still got things that we want to improve.
Speaker 1: That was a big team win, but we need a
Speaker 1: lot We need to get better in a lot of areas.
Speaker 1: Absolutely well, A big part of that team win was
Speaker 1: the defense. Today. Fran earlier this afternoon was able to
Speaker 1: break down the star of today's game, Darius Slay and
Speaker 1: one of his interceptions in this week's RICO Review. All Right,
Speaker 1: this week here on the RICO Review, we're gonna take
Speaker 1: a look at this interception first half by Eagles cornerback
Speaker 1: Darius Slay. Came in a very simple version of Cover two,
Speaker 1: where you're gonna see here is the safety Roddy McLeod.
Speaker 1: He's gonna head out to account for the deep half
Speaker 1: of the field. You're gonna get Anthony Harris, He's gonna
Speaker 1: do the same on his side. What you're gonna see
Speaker 1: here from Darius Slay is that he's going to be
Speaker 1: accounting for this flat area. Here's the cloud corner working
Speaker 1: underneath along the sideline. Now, what the Panthers are gonna
Speaker 1: do is they're running something that they feel a tax
Speaker 1: cover two. You're gonna get a vertical route from the
Speaker 1: outside receiver and a quick out from the number two receiver.
Speaker 1: What they're hoping is that Darius Slay sees that route
Speaker 1: coming here from the slot receiver and he steps up
Speaker 1: to attack it, and that opens up a void here
Speaker 1: for this outside receiver to run into. What Darius Slay
Speaker 1: does is he does not take the cheese. He sees
Speaker 1: that number two receiver working into the flat but he
Speaker 1: continues to sink, continues to sink, and he gets under
Speaker 1: this vertical route from the outside receiver. Does an outstanding
Speaker 1: job of takeaway the space. Let's let this roll and
Speaker 1: you can see the interception all leaping grab here as
Speaker 1: he climbs the ladder comes down with the interception. Just
Speaker 1: an outstanding pick here from the second year Eagles corner.
Speaker 1: Biggest play of the game here for this Eagles defense
Speaker 1: early on deep in Carolina territory. Gets the Eagles their
Speaker 1: first points of this game, and it all starts with
Speaker 1: outstanding technique and a great finish from Darius Slay. Now
Speaker 1: is your chance to vote for the Toyota Player of
Speaker 1: the Week. Go to Philadelphia Eagles dot com slash Toyota
Speaker 1: Player of the Week to cast your vote and get
Speaker 1: a chance at a brand new well Yoda. All right,
Speaker 1: let's see what we got our three nominees. We're gonna
Speaker 1: start off with t J. Edwards. There it is blocking
Speaker 1: the punt. He said that was his first blocked punt
Speaker 1: he's ever had in a football game in the NFL.
Speaker 1: Love it all right. Moving on our guy guys, Javon Hargrave.
Speaker 1: There he is causing all kinds of trouble up front,
Speaker 1: a lot of pressure, three total tackles, a sack, two
Speaker 1: quarterback hits, and a tackle for loss. We love it.
Speaker 1: And here he is. Big week for Darius Slay. He
Speaker 1: got a new baby and two interceptions, three total tackles,
Speaker 1: those two i nts and a tackle for loss. You
Speaker 1: love to see it. Big things from the defense today.
Speaker 1: Those are your three nominees for Toyota Player of the Week.
Speaker 1: What do we think gotta go with? Big Place Slay. Listen,
Speaker 1: Mama Slay gave baby, gave birth to baby Demetrius. Earlier
Speaker 1: in the week, New Proud Papa got two interceptions. Man
Speaker 1: gotta go with big play Slay. He gets it only
Speaker 1: because of the celebration after the second one, right baby afterwards.
Speaker 1: That's enough for I love it. I love it well.
Speaker 1: Hopefully we'll keep this defensive effort moving forward. Like we said,
Speaker 1: we've harped on it throughout the show. It's a short week.
Speaker 1: We know who's coming to town, Tom Brady and the
Speaker 1: reigning Super Bowl champions Thursday night. We're gonna look at
Speaker 1: our Jamison nightcap here preparing for what is to be
Speaker 1: a huge matchup at Lincoln Financial Field. The Bucks are
Speaker 1: four and one so far this year, is sitting first
Speaker 1: in the NFC South. Today they defeated the Dolphins forty
Speaker 1: five to seventeen guys forty five points they put up
Speaker 1: down in Miami. Last meeting against the Eagles came in
Speaker 1: twenty eighteen, so it's been some time. They got a
Speaker 1: new quarterback. I don't know if you ever heard of him,
Speaker 1: but it's gonna be a challenge for these Eagles. Oh
Speaker 1: no doubt about it and listen, Tampa, that game started
Speaker 1: off a little slow for them to day against Miami,
Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden they just exploded. And
Speaker 1: that's just that, just lets you know what that offense
Speaker 1: is capable of playmakers in every position. We know Tom
Speaker 1: Brady best to ever do it, but he's beatable. And
Speaker 1: we also know a little something about Tom Brady. So oh,
Speaker 1: that's right. The other thing to you to keep in mind,
Speaker 1: according to Twitter anyway, I'm just calling off seeing, but
Speaker 1: right here at the desk, tom Brady's hand in a
Speaker 1: rap at the press conference after this game against Miami.
Speaker 1: So something to monitor here over the next couple of days.
Speaker 1: Whoever tom Brady's suiting up with, there's a little extra
Speaker 1: juice when it comes to Philly. We know the history,
Speaker 1: Philly fans love the history. So it's gonna be an
Speaker 1: exciting week here at the Novecare Complex. Yeah, Thursday night,
Speaker 1: defending champs coming to town. As far as I'm going, sorry,
Speaker 1: they're right for the picking. I'll always extra when you're
Speaker 1: playing the defending champs. Yeah sure, all right, you gotta
Speaker 1: go home, and Drayson, you're Jamison. All right, we'll be
Speaker 1: back here on Thursday night for some Thursday night football.
Speaker 1: I'm Gabriella d Givanni for fran Duffy and I Greace.
Speaker 1: We'll see you next time.
