WEBVTT - Eagles 360: December 5 0:00:22.600 --> 0:00:25.720 December is the month in the NFL when the contenders 0:00:25.840 --> 0:00:29.120 separate themselves from the pretenders. And in their first game 0:00:29.120 --> 0:00:32.880 in December twenty sixteen, the Eagles fell flat in Cincinnati, 0:00:33.320 --> 0:00:36.760 losing thirty two to fourteen, and we're here to talk 0:00:36.800 --> 0:00:38.559 about it the day after. Not only that, but to 0:00:38.560 --> 0:00:41.040 talk about where the Eagles go from here. Hello everyone, 0:00:41.080 --> 0:00:44.159 and welcome to Eagles three sixty Dave Spidero along with 0:00:44.200 --> 0:00:47.760 the Hall of Famer Brian Westbrook after the I guess 0:00:47.760 --> 0:00:50.400 the low point of this season today, Brian, Eagles fall 0:00:50.479 --> 0:00:53.720 to five and seven and so many things went wrong 0:00:53.760 --> 0:00:56.560 in Cincinnati. How did it happen? Well, you know, in 0:00:56.680 --> 0:00:58.840 order for this team to win, they have to have 0:00:59.600 --> 0:01:03.080 zero eras, and unfortunately we made an awful lot of mistakes. 0:01:03.280 --> 0:01:05.920 But anytime you lose in this league, for the most part, 0:01:06.280 --> 0:01:10.040 it starts up front. Offensive line defensive line, and we 0:01:10.200 --> 0:01:13.880 got dominated a bit and both of those trenches offensively 0:01:13.920 --> 0:01:15.720 and defensively. And if you want to win, no matter 0:01:15.760 --> 0:01:18.360 who's your quarterback, no matter who's in the secondary, you 0:01:18.440 --> 0:01:20.640 have to win up front. We lost both of those battles. 0:01:20.720 --> 0:01:22.680 So many things to talk about here. Let's get you 0:01:22.720 --> 0:01:25.600 caught up with everything happening at an overcare complex. First, 0:01:26.120 --> 0:01:29.000 Doug Peterson met the media answered a lot of tough questions. 0:01:29.440 --> 0:01:32.679 Monday morning, Alex Smith is here with the Eagles three 0:01:32.840 --> 0:01:36.080 sixty update. Hi everyone, I'm Alex Smith here with your 0:01:36.080 --> 0:01:39.039 three sixty update. Well, Sunday another tough outing for the 0:01:39.080 --> 0:01:41.720 Eagles in Cincinnati as they fell to the Bengals by 0:01:41.720 --> 0:01:44.400 a final score of thirty two to fourteen, the third 0:01:44.480 --> 0:01:46.720 straight loss for the Eagles, and today we heard from 0:01:46.720 --> 0:01:49.080 head coach Doug Peterson on what his message is to 0:01:49.120 --> 0:01:51.640 the team as they enter into this final four game 0:01:51.720 --> 0:01:54.800 stretch with three of the games at home against division foes. 0:01:55.000 --> 0:01:57.360 And according to coach Peterson, it's a mix of tough 0:01:57.440 --> 0:02:01.280 love and still supporting his players. I think there's a 0:02:02.880 --> 0:02:05.200 a level of that tough love. There's got to be 0:02:05.240 --> 0:02:08.160 that accountability that I was talking about. Um, you know, 0:02:08.240 --> 0:02:11.280 I I implore and I challenge the leaders of the 0:02:11.280 --> 0:02:14.080 football team, you know, to to stand up and and 0:02:14.080 --> 0:02:16.920 and really not only hold themselves, but the rest of 0:02:16.919 --> 0:02:19.840 the team and uh and listen. It's not a it's 0:02:19.880 --> 0:02:22.320 not a panic move or anything like that, but just hey, 0:02:22.400 --> 0:02:24.400 let's just make sure we're doing things right. Everybody just 0:02:24.440 --> 0:02:27.720 do things right, do their jobs, do their assignments, um, 0:02:27.840 --> 0:02:29.560 you know, and and good things are going to happen. 0:02:29.639 --> 0:02:33.280 So obviously, again it starts with me, and uh, I've 0:02:33.320 --> 0:02:34.600 got to make sure that I'm doing it right and 0:02:34.639 --> 0:02:38.080 I'm holding myself accountable. And you know, as you mentioned 0:02:38.080 --> 0:02:40.400 earlier with with Jeffrey and Howie, if they're holding me 0:02:40.440 --> 0:02:42.959 accountable and all that, I mean, that's where it starts. 0:02:43.000 --> 0:02:44.799 And then I and I relay that message to the 0:02:44.800 --> 0:02:48.760 assistance and onto the team. Rookie quarterback Carson Wentz also 0:02:48.800 --> 0:02:52.480 had his struggles against the Bengals, throwing three interceptions against 0:02:52.520 --> 0:02:55.280 that Bengals defense, but today coach Peterson said that it's 0:02:55.320 --> 0:02:58.200 all part of the learning process as Carson starts to 0:02:58.200 --> 0:03:00.959 experience some of these growing pains here in his first season. 0:03:02.000 --> 0:03:03.720 You know, these are the some of the decisions that 0:03:04.160 --> 0:03:07.000 I made back when when the trade was made that 0:03:07.160 --> 0:03:09.200 if there was going to be some some growing pains, 0:03:09.200 --> 0:03:10.560 these we're going to be some of the pains we're 0:03:10.560 --> 0:03:13.280 gonna have to go through. And just him him understanding 0:03:13.280 --> 0:03:16.240 and him learning, and us growing together as as as 0:03:16.280 --> 0:03:20.000 an offense, he and I growing as coach and quarterback 0:03:20.080 --> 0:03:22.640 together and uh, it's all part of the It's all 0:03:22.680 --> 0:03:25.720 part of the process. And finally will close things out 0:03:25.760 --> 0:03:28.720 here with an injury update. Wide receiver Dorial Green Beckham 0:03:28.720 --> 0:03:31.639 suffered an oblique injury yesterday. He will be held out 0:03:31.639 --> 0:03:33.760 of practice on Wednesday, but he should be good to 0:03:33.800 --> 0:03:37.000 go for Sunday's game. Meanwhile, some good news for the Eagles, 0:03:37.000 --> 0:03:40.080 as running back Ryan Matthews, with his knee injury, is 0:03:40.120 --> 0:03:43.320 scheduled to practice this week and hopefully play on Sunday 0:03:43.320 --> 0:03:46.560 against the Washington Redskins. For a complete injury update and 0:03:46.640 --> 0:03:49.560 everything that you need to know from Coach Peterson's press conference, 0:03:49.720 --> 0:03:51.680 stay right here in Philadelphia Eagles dot com and the 0:03:51.720 --> 0:03:55.840 official Eagles mobile app. Thank you so much, Alex, Brian 0:03:55.920 --> 0:03:58.880 and I will now rehash what went wrong for the 0:03:58.880 --> 0:04:01.680 Eagles and just talk big picture as well. When we 0:04:01.720 --> 0:04:05.600 return to Eagles three sixty. We begin on the defensive 0:04:05.680 --> 0:04:09.240 side of the ball.

Brian Westbrook, and you knew 0:05:54.920 --> 0:05:57.960 pretty early in the game on Sunday that things were 0:05:58.000 --> 0:06:01.120 not going to go the way the Philadelphia Eagles had planned, 0:06:01.440 --> 0:06:05.640 especially from a defensive standpoint, Brian, the Bengals come out 0:06:05.680 --> 0:06:09.000 after a short Donnie Jones punt, go down the field, 0:06:09.040 --> 0:06:12.440 score a field going. Jalen Watkins had the football in 0:06:12.560 --> 0:06:15.120 his chest and couldn't hold in. I thought, oh, boys, 0:06:15.160 --> 0:06:16.960 this the way it's gonna be, And turns out that's 0:06:16.960 --> 0:06:18.960 the way it was. Well, you talk about missed opportunities. 0:06:18.960 --> 0:06:22.640 Obviously Jalen Watkins missed that opportunity. There were other opportunities 0:06:22.640 --> 0:06:24.880 where your defense has to get off the field and 0:06:24.960 --> 0:06:28.120 they only held the Cincinnati to fifty percent or third down, 0:06:28.160 --> 0:06:29.800 which is not very good. But when you have to 0:06:29.800 --> 0:06:32.880 get off the field, you put the offense in bad positions. 0:06:33.040 --> 0:06:35.240 Third and eight. There was a couple third and eight 0:06:35.520 --> 0:06:39.320 on on Cincinnati's second possession where we couldn't get off 0:06:39.320 --> 0:06:41.839 the field. Third and eight, twenty three yard completion down 0:06:41.839 --> 0:06:44.600 the field, another third and eight fifty yard completion down 0:06:44.640 --> 0:06:46.960 the field. If you want to win as a defense, 0:06:47.120 --> 0:06:48.520 you have to be able to get off the field, 0:06:48.640 --> 0:06:51.360 especially in third or now. You work so long, you 0:06:51.440 --> 0:06:53.640 work so hard to put a team in third and long, 0:06:53.839 --> 0:06:55.480 and when you don't get off the field, it just 0:06:55.520 --> 0:06:58.120 destroys you. It did destroy the Eagles defense. What are 0:06:58.160 --> 0:07:02.159 you seeing from this defense that early in the season 0:07:02.240 --> 0:07:05.400 got to the quarterback, disrupted the line of scrimmage, mixed 0:07:05.440 --> 0:07:08.760 in some blitzes, made some plays, took the football away. 0:07:08.839 --> 0:07:12.080 Not happening at all. Yeah, I think you're really depending 0:07:12.160 --> 0:07:15.000 on your front four to get a pressure on the 0:07:15.080 --> 0:07:17.400 quarterback early on in the game, and they're not getting 0:07:17.400 --> 0:07:20.119 that pressure with only four and so now you're putting 0:07:20.120 --> 0:07:22.200 it on Jim Swartz just a bit. Do you add 0:07:22.200 --> 0:07:24.600 blitzing to give up coverage in the back end or 0:07:24.640 --> 0:07:26.720 do you say, listen, we need you guys to get 0:07:26.760 --> 0:07:29.880 to the quarterback. Unfortunately, we talk about losing in the trenches. 0:07:30.080 --> 0:07:32.440 Our front four. They lost in the trenches yesterday. They 0:07:32.440 --> 0:07:34.720 got dominated, they got man handled, and they didn't put 0:07:34.840 --> 0:07:37.360 enough pressure on Andy Dalton. And if we want to win, 0:07:37.600 --> 0:07:39.640 the only way that this defense can win is to 0:07:39.640 --> 0:07:42.000 get pressure with four front and we lost that battle. 0:07:42.200 --> 0:07:44.280 And let's keep in mind that the Bengals played the 0:07:44.320 --> 0:07:47.680 game without aj Green, their star wide receiver, their best 0:07:47.760 --> 0:07:50.760 running back Geo Bernard out for the season with an injury. 0:07:51.160 --> 0:07:53.360 The Eagles knew going in that the right side of 0:07:53.400 --> 0:07:56.680 the Cincinnati offensive line was weak, and I thought Brandon 0:07:56.720 --> 0:07:58.920 Graham brought it as he has every week this year, 0:07:59.320 --> 0:08:02.120 I'm not sure anybody else really did well. You know, 0:08:02.160 --> 0:08:04.320 Brandon Graham. The thing that he does well is that 0:08:04.360 --> 0:08:06.640 he plays a pass and he plays the run with 0:08:06.720 --> 0:08:09.000 the same type of intensity. And that's what you need 0:08:09.040 --> 0:08:11.280 across the board if this defensive line is going to 0:08:11.360 --> 0:08:14.040 be successful. Color Barwin has to do it. Benny Logan 0:08:14.080 --> 0:08:15.720 has to do it, as well as Fletcher Cox. When 0:08:15.760 --> 0:08:17.640 they bring in Vinny Curry, he has to do the 0:08:17.720 --> 0:08:20.880 same thing. We're not seeing that same type of intensity, 0:08:21.000 --> 0:08:24.600 pride in effort in every single play from everyone across 0:08:24.640 --> 0:08:26.840 the board on the defensive line, and that's the only 0:08:26.880 --> 0:08:28.920 way that's the key to victory here for us on 0:08:28.960 --> 0:08:30.840 the defensive side of the ball is to win in 0:08:30.880 --> 0:08:33.440 the trenches. Not everyone is given that same type of effort. 0:08:33.520 --> 0:08:35.880 I don't mean to single him out, Brian, but we 0:08:36.000 --> 0:08:38.240 thought that Vinnie Curry going from a three to four 0:08:38.760 --> 0:08:41.080 two a four to three would make him more productive. 0:08:41.360 --> 0:08:44.320 It has been exactly the opposite. Maybe he's just better 0:08:44.320 --> 0:08:46.200 than a three four as a stand up outside linebacker. 0:08:46.240 --> 0:08:49.240 You know, Vinny has gotten pressure on certain situations, But 0:08:49.480 --> 0:08:51.400 as I watch a lot of his tape, I just 0:08:51.440 --> 0:08:54.040 see a guy that's getting to the what he's rushing, 0:08:54.080 --> 0:08:56.960 and so every time he's rushing at the point of contact, 0:08:57.000 --> 0:08:58.880 the offensive line is trying to get their hands on 0:08:59.240 --> 0:09:01.920 the Vinny Benn, he's allowing that to happen. As a 0:09:01.960 --> 0:09:04.160 defensive player at the point of contact, you have to 0:09:04.160 --> 0:09:06.160 be able to work your hands. You're slapping the way 0:09:06.160 --> 0:09:08.920 again the offensive guy's hands. You have a move, then 0:09:08.920 --> 0:09:10.760 you have the counter move, then you have the counter 0:09:10.800 --> 0:09:13.600 move to the countermove. And unfortunately Benny just doesn't have 0:09:13.640 --> 0:09:15.719 those moves right now. That's something that you can work 0:09:15.760 --> 0:09:17.640 on the practice. That's something that he has to get 0:09:17.679 --> 0:09:20.120 better on if he wants to be the highest paid 0:09:20.120 --> 0:09:22.720 defensive player as far as the defensive linement on our team, 0:09:22.960 --> 0:09:24.720 he has to work on those types of things to 0:09:24.760 --> 0:09:27.120 be effective. Right now with one of the half sacks 0:09:27.160 --> 0:09:29.960 on the season, he's not affective doing it. Ad linebacker 0:09:30.040 --> 0:09:33.080 Nigel Browden was really an impact player in the month 0:09:33.080 --> 0:09:36.200 of September and even into October. Lately, though Brian a 0:09:36.240 --> 0:09:38.360 lot of penalties, a lot of mistakes. What's going on 0:09:38.400 --> 0:09:40.720 with him, Well, he's playing sloppy football, I mean, and 0:09:40.800 --> 0:09:43.920 sometimes because you get frustrated at the linebacker position, you 0:09:44.040 --> 0:09:46.520 put yourself in bad situations and then you have to 0:09:46.600 --> 0:09:49.520 drag a guy down by a collar fifteen yard penalty. 0:09:49.720 --> 0:09:52.200 You can't, as a linebacker as really as any player 0:09:52.200 --> 0:09:55.000 on the team, penalize your team because if you're a 0:09:55.000 --> 0:09:57.000 bad play, you have to be in the right position 0:09:57.040 --> 0:09:59.440 at the right time, and if you don't, if you're not, 0:09:59.640 --> 0:10:02.160 you can't allow the penalty to happen. You can't drag 0:10:02.200 --> 0:10:04.559 a guy down by as collar. That's just too costly 0:10:04.600 --> 0:10:07.160 for a team. Fifteen yards tacked on the top of 0:10:07.200 --> 0:10:09.720 another fifteen yard penalty on the next play. That's going 0:10:09.760 --> 0:10:13.040 to hurt your football team. Undisciplined play has hurt this 0:10:13.120 --> 0:10:16.880 team to another game with multiple penalties, double digit penalties. 0:10:17.080 --> 0:10:18.920 You can't win that way in the NFL and in 0:10:19.040 --> 0:10:22.360 the secondary. The Eagles, when they got the Cincinnati Bengals 0:10:22.360 --> 0:10:25.679 to third down, Andy Dalton tore them apart. Ten of 0:10:25.800 --> 0:10:29.320 twelve passing he averaged on the game ten point seven 0:10:29.360 --> 0:10:32.720 yards per past attempt. That's a whopping number, and that 0:10:32.840 --> 0:10:37.079 speaks to coverage that's just not good enough. There's a combination. 0:10:37.120 --> 0:10:39.760 When you talk about coverage, you talk about pressure as well. 0:10:39.960 --> 0:10:42.040 When you have the pressure, it makes your coverage look 0:10:42.200 --> 0:10:45.200 off for well, when you're challenging receivers, it makes those 0:10:45.240 --> 0:10:47.400 guys up front look a little bit better. Right now, 0:10:47.480 --> 0:10:50.000 our coverage and our pressure are front with our front 0:10:50.000 --> 0:10:52.760 floor are not in sync, and we're too loose on 0:10:53.160 --> 0:10:55.800 the receivers. We're not challenging these guys as far as 0:10:55.800 --> 0:10:59.040 our defensive backstandpoint enough in a front we're not getting 0:10:59.040 --> 0:11:01.880 the pressure and so in a lose lose situation right now, 0:11:02.200 --> 0:11:04.440 they have to find a way to get to the quarterback. 0:11:04.720 --> 0:11:06.480 How do you find a way. You need a challenge. 0:11:06.520 --> 0:11:08.280 You need to start challenging guys. And I'm not talking 0:11:08.280 --> 0:11:11.239 about challenging the individual players. I'm talking about the cornerbacks, 0:11:11.440 --> 0:11:14.080 challenging the receivers. Not being afraid to get beat if 0:11:14.080 --> 0:11:16.199 you give up a big touchdown. Okay, now we have 0:11:16.280 --> 0:11:18.160 to change something up. But from the beginning of the 0:11:18.160 --> 0:11:20.360 football game, I want a guy to get in someone's 0:11:20.400 --> 0:11:22.480 face and challenge him. You have to beat me off 0:11:22.520 --> 0:11:24.280 the line of scrimmers. And then when you catch the 0:11:24.280 --> 0:11:26.880 ball in that small window, I'm gonna challenge you again 0:11:27.080 --> 0:11:29.200 and try to beat your hands so you're not catching 0:11:29.200 --> 0:11:31.720 that football. And I want these guys to show some effort. 0:11:31.720 --> 0:11:33.520 I want them to show some pride. I want them 0:11:33.520 --> 0:11:36.320 to challenge someone. It's a man versus man game, and 0:11:36.400 --> 0:11:38.440 if I could beat you, then we're gonna win that play. 0:11:38.720 --> 0:11:40.679 You have to win more plays than your opponent does. 0:11:40.679 --> 0:11:42.840 It's very difficult to assignment for the Eagles. On Sunday 0:11:42.840 --> 0:11:46.079 at Lincoln Financial Field, the Washington Redskins and that loaded 0:11:46.160 --> 0:11:49.160 offense come into town smarting after a loss to the 0:11:49.200 --> 0:11:52.120 Arizona Cardinals. On special teams, Eagles really didn't have a 0:11:52.120 --> 0:11:54.640 great day. Donnie Jones with that opening punk kind of 0:11:54.679 --> 0:11:57.560 set the tone. Caleb st just missed a field goal 0:11:58.160 --> 0:12:02.040 one positive, A big kickoff return by Kenyon Barner set 0:12:02.080 --> 0:12:04.800 up a touchdown, but not enough for the Philadelphia Eagles 0:12:04.840 --> 0:12:08.360 on defense on special teams. On offense, while we know 0:12:08.440 --> 0:12:12.559 the Eagles struggled sixty passing attempts by quarterback Carson Wentz 0:12:12.880 --> 0:12:15.439 far too many. What's going on on that side of 0:12:15.480 --> 0:12:18.160 the ball. We'll talk about it when we return to 0:12:18.280 --> 0:12:22.200 Eagles three sixty.

It has been 0:14:22.480 --> 0:14:25.800 quite a plummet for the Eagles offensively since that three 0:14:25.840 --> 0:14:28.440 and oh starts, since the loss of Lane Johnson after 0:14:28.520 --> 0:14:32.080 Week four. I point to that Brian as the start 0:14:32.520 --> 0:14:35.760 to a real struggle for the offense. That offensive line 0:14:35.800 --> 0:14:38.360 just hasn't been in since since Lane left. That's because 0:14:38.400 --> 0:14:41.000 you're moving pieces around. When you take one of your 0:14:41.040 --> 0:14:43.920 best players on offense, which is Lane Johnson represents, and 0:14:44.040 --> 0:14:45.840 you take them away. Now you have to move a 0:14:45.880 --> 0:14:47.840 guy here and move a guy there just to make 0:14:47.880 --> 0:14:50.960 things work as an offensive play call, or you're limited 0:14:51.000 --> 0:14:53.480 because you don't trust those guys as much as you 0:14:53.480 --> 0:14:56.000 trust an all pro type of guy like Lane Johnson. 0:14:56.120 --> 0:14:57.840 The other part is that you're not going to get 0:14:57.880 --> 0:14:59.840 the same production. You're not going to get the same 0:15:00.080 --> 0:15:02.600 plays from guys that are not Lane Johnson, because he's 0:15:02.600 --> 0:15:04.760 a very good football player. We need to be able 0:15:04.800 --> 0:15:07.080 to run the ball and win in the trenches right now. 0:15:07.080 --> 0:15:08.880 We haven't done that in a long time. And a 0:15:08.880 --> 0:15:11.000 lot of it started when Lane Johnson went out. And 0:15:11.040 --> 0:15:13.280 you know the argument of the run pass ratio. I 0:15:13.320 --> 0:15:15.920 really paid attention to it on Sunday. I didn't think 0:15:15.920 --> 0:15:18.080 it was a big deal. Look, too many four false 0:15:18.080 --> 0:15:21.440 start penalties in the first half in a stadium that 0:15:21.600 --> 0:15:24.680 was dead. I just don't know how it happens. Discipline. 0:15:24.760 --> 0:15:27.920 I mean these types of things. Obviously I haven't been 0:15:27.960 --> 0:15:30.960 to practice, but they are probably happening in practices and 0:15:31.000 --> 0:15:34.040 they really converted into games, and you can't do that. 0:15:34.280 --> 0:15:36.480 You have to be a discipline team, even when you're 0:15:36.480 --> 0:15:38.520 not at your best, even when you don't have all 0:15:38.520 --> 0:15:40.600 of your players there, you're missing some players. You have 0:15:40.680 --> 0:15:43.080 to be a discipline team to win, even when you 0:15:43.120 --> 0:15:45.760 go into Cincinnati against a team that only has three wins, 0:15:45.840 --> 0:15:48.200 you have to be a discipline team all season long. 0:15:48.240 --> 0:15:51.320 This team has struggled with penalties, false starts, personal fouls. 0:15:51.360 --> 0:15:54.000 Those types of things continue to occur. They have to 0:15:54.040 --> 0:15:56.240 find a way to start and get a way to 0:15:56.320 --> 0:15:58.920 get disciplined. Right now, the veterans need to step up 0:15:58.960 --> 0:16:01.520 and take charge of that. Brian Carson Wentz is the 0:16:01.600 --> 0:16:05.080 big story, the big picture story for this franchise, and 0:16:05.120 --> 0:16:09.320 everybody's saying, hey, there's mechanical issues. He's looking down receivers, 0:16:09.360 --> 0:16:13.000 he's staring down receivers, he's forcing passes. Three interceptions against 0:16:13.000 --> 0:16:16.200 the Bengals. What are you seeing from Carson start of 0:16:16.240 --> 0:16:18.920 the season through now? What I'm saying all of those things. 0:16:18.960 --> 0:16:21.920 I'm seeing them taking long strides in some of this passes. 0:16:22.080 --> 0:16:26.400 That's mechanics. I'm taking a long whooping arm throat. That's mechanics. Again, 0:16:26.760 --> 0:16:29.040 as a quarterback, as a season goes, really not just 0:16:29.080 --> 0:16:31.440 a quarterback, as a player, you have to focus on 0:16:31.480 --> 0:16:34.480 the small things to make those big things a lot easier. 0:16:34.640 --> 0:16:36.760 Right now, he's failing to some of those small things, 0:16:36.920 --> 0:16:39.320 and that happens over the course of the season. Those 0:16:39.360 --> 0:16:41.520 are the things that you have to say, Okay, I'm 0:16:41.520 --> 0:16:44.440 a critically watch the film. I made a mistake here 0:16:44.760 --> 0:16:46.320 and I need to fix that, and I'm going to 0:16:46.360 --> 0:16:48.680 go out and practice and work on that particular thing. 0:16:49.000 --> 0:16:50.720 If you have to do that as a player, it 0:16:50.840 --> 0:16:52.920 hurts some time to be critical of yourself, but at 0:16:52.920 --> 0:16:54.600 the same time, if you want to be better, you 0:16:54.680 --> 0:16:57.320 have to be critical. That's where Carson Wisbey's started. I'm 0:16:57.320 --> 0:17:00.360 the wide receiver corps. On Sunday, missing Jordan Matthew, Paul 0:17:00.360 --> 0:17:02.680 Turner stepped up and had a nice game in his 0:17:02.760 --> 0:17:05.960 first real productive game as an NFL player. Maybe have 0:17:06.080 --> 0:17:10.320 something there. At least he's really confident and easily catching 0:17:10.320 --> 0:17:12.600 the football. Football and they called the football well and 0:17:12.640 --> 0:17:15.719 that goes a long way for our wide receiver corps. 0:17:15.760 --> 0:17:18.600 They haven't been doing that very often and consistently enough. 0:17:18.880 --> 0:17:21.160 The one thing I did see and listen, Nelson Agilor 0:17:21.200 --> 0:17:23.240 didn't have a great gang, but at the same time 0:17:23.280 --> 0:17:25.560 he caught some difficult footballs. He went out there and 0:17:25.640 --> 0:17:28.920 looked more confident. I like that. That's building towards the future. 0:17:28.960 --> 0:17:31.240 That's getting better. Paul Turner did a great job of 0:17:31.320 --> 0:17:34.440 coming out catching some difficult balls and making some yards 0:17:34.480 --> 0:17:36.719 after the catch. I like that as well. We just 0:17:36.720 --> 0:17:38.720 need more of that. We need We didn't have enough, 0:17:38.920 --> 0:17:40.360 but we need a lot more of it, and zach 0:17:40.480 --> 0:17:43.920 ERT's fifteen targets a touchdown nine catches, his second red 0:17:44.000 --> 0:17:47.760 zone touchdown in three weeks. So there are slivers of 0:17:47.880 --> 0:17:51.000 optimistic happenings yesterday. The main thing that we need to 0:17:51.000 --> 0:17:53.520 focus on is protecting Carson Wentz and be able to 0:17:53.640 --> 0:17:56.280 establish a running game. We don't have to be consistently running, 0:17:56.400 --> 0:17:58.679 but our offensive line has to win up front. I 0:17:58.760 --> 0:18:00.840 talked about losing in the train. They have to be 0:18:00.880 --> 0:18:03.680 able to re establish that line of scrimmage. Too many 0:18:03.680 --> 0:18:05.920 times our offensive line is getting pushed two and three 0:18:06.000 --> 0:18:07.800 yards in the backfield. And I don't care who you're 0:18:07.840 --> 0:18:09.919 running back. I don't care how many run players you call. 0:18:10.119 --> 0:18:11.919 If your offensive line is two or three yards in 0:18:11.920 --> 0:18:14.719 your backfield consistently over the course of a game, you 0:18:14.720 --> 0:18:17.479 can't win, especially running in the football. Yeah. So it's 0:18:17.480 --> 0:18:20.000 a tough picture for the Eagles offense, no question about it. 0:18:20.400 --> 0:18:22.159 And they've got a few days to get ready for 0:18:22.200 --> 0:18:25.879 the Washington Redskins, the first of three NFC East games 0:18:26.160 --> 0:18:29.400 in these final four outings of the regular season. When 0:18:29.440 --> 0:18:31.919 we return to Eagles three sixty, we'll talk about that. 0:18:31.960 --> 0:18:35.600 We'll look ahead the Washington Redskins in town on Sunday. 0:18:35.880 --> 0:18:38.520 We're not talking playoffs here, We're talking get back in 0:18:38.600 --> 0:19:01.320 the win column against an NFC East rival. We'd simply 0:19:01.400 --> 0:19:04.800 right checking from Santime deir Bank. Just make one deposit, withdraw, 0:19:05.000 --> 0:19:07.679 transfer or payment each month to wait the monthly fee 0:19:07.840 --> 0:19:10.879 and there's no minimum balance. You're all right, it's simply 0:19:10.960 --> 0:19:18.960 right checking from santandir Bank. Remarkable things are happening at 0:19:18.960 --> 0:19:22.080 your local ACME. We're making changes and we're getting better 0:19:22.119 --> 0:19:27.440 every day, Cleaner, friendlier, fresher like fresher meat and seafood, 0:19:27.680 --> 0:19:31.240 and fresher produce and hundreds of organics.

ACME the official 0:19:42.960 --> 0:19:55.359 supermarket of the Philadelphia Eagles. You here and buy the tickets? Hey, buddy, 0:19:55.359 --> 0:19:59.160 you here for the tickets? Yeah, dude, what's the password? Man? 0:19:59.320 --> 0:20:02.880 Oh coach, what were you thinking? We're doing like a 0:20:02.920 --> 0:20:09.280 CD ticket deal instead of going NFL ticket exchange tickets 0:20:09.280 --> 0:20:11.040 from one fan to the other. We'll see it the game, 0:20:11.080 --> 0:20:21.280 all right, Yes, sir, all right, appreciate. Eagles are two 0:20:21.280 --> 0:20:24.440 and seven in their last nine games after that three 0:20:24.440 --> 0:20:26.919 and old start. Dave Spidero, Brian Westbrook, what in the 0:20:26.960 --> 0:20:31.280 world has happened? I think their fundamentals have fallen apart 0:20:31.400 --> 0:20:33.720 just a bit, and now we're relying on things that 0:20:33.760 --> 0:20:35.960 we're not very good at. We're relying on throwing the 0:20:36.000 --> 0:20:38.600 football down the field sixty times in the game, and 0:20:38.720 --> 0:20:41.000 our receivers and our quarterback are just not very good. 0:20:41.000 --> 0:20:43.400 At this point. We have to get back to some basics. 0:20:43.440 --> 0:20:46.399 Maybe that's running the football, maybe that's being dominant on 0:20:46.480 --> 0:20:49.280 the defensive front, but we have to do something good 0:20:49.359 --> 0:20:51.320 right now. Where we're doing is not the right thing. 0:20:51.320 --> 0:20:54.320 With September a mirage, Brian, I think we played some 0:20:54.359 --> 0:20:57.000 teams in September that are just not very good. Pittsburgh 0:20:57.080 --> 0:20:59.320 was not playing well at the time we ended up 0:20:59.359 --> 0:21:03.160 beating them. Chicago and Cleveland are not very good football teams, 0:21:03.240 --> 0:21:05.480 and I think that gave us a false sense of security. 0:21:06.160 --> 0:21:08.600 This team has some holes, it has some flaws. We 0:21:08.680 --> 0:21:11.280 have to get better in certain positions, and as the 0:21:11.359 --> 0:21:15.120 season has gone on, those positions are now glaring. Now 0:21:15.119 --> 0:21:17.080 we're seeing them more and more and more the one 0:21:17.119 --> 0:21:19.119 thing that we can control. We can't control who's on 0:21:19.160 --> 0:21:21.120 the team right now. The one thing that the people 0:21:21.160 --> 0:21:24.280
