One of those candidates Adam Gase, 0:00:54.880 --> 0:00:57.920 now the head coach of the Miami Dolphins, and five 0:00:58.080 --> 0:01:02.000 candidates remain, including Tom coffin interview today. Yes, indeed, some 0:01:02.160 --> 0:01:05.760 internal candidates like Pat Schermer and Duce Daley as you mentioned, Dave, 0:01:05.880 --> 0:01:09.640 some external candidates like the aforementioned Coughlin. The biggest key 0:01:09.680 --> 0:01:12.840 will be who will be the leader who could provide 0:01:12.880 --> 0:01:16.479 that advantage for the Philadelphia Eagles in the short term 0:01:16.600 --> 0:01:19.280 and hopefully build things for the long term to set 0:01:19.319 --> 0:01:22.120 the program in place to get them back to their 0:01:22.160 --> 0:01:24.320 winning ways.

We welcome you back 0:04:03.640 --> 0:04:07.240 to Eagles three sixty Eagles and Sider Dave SPIDERO Chris McPherson, 0:04:08.400 --> 0:04:10.880 and we know that the Eagles are meeting with coaching 0:04:10.960 --> 0:04:15.200 candidates Jeffrey Lourie Howie Rose McDonald Smolinsky. We are not 0:04:15.360 --> 0:04:17.440 part of it. We are watching, we are wondering, We 0:04:17.440 --> 0:04:19.880 are asking the same questions that you are. In the meantime, 0:04:19.920 --> 0:04:23.920 we've compiled some information on the candidates to break them down, 0:04:23.960 --> 0:04:27.520 give you an apples to apples comparison of all of 0:04:27.560 --> 0:04:30.119 the men. So let's start with dol Schremer, right, who 0:04:30.400 --> 0:04:32.200 coached the Eagles in the final game of the regular 0:04:32.200 --> 0:04:34.240 season against the New York Giants and the Eagles win 0:04:34.360 --> 0:04:37.760 that game. Schrmer's been there, He's done that. Chris, he 0:04:37.880 --> 0:04:40.040 seems on the surface and what we know of him 0:04:40.080 --> 0:04:42.520 to be a very strong candidate, very very strong candid. 0:04:42.560 --> 0:04:44.760 I think he offers the best of both worlds in 0:04:44.800 --> 0:04:47.599 the terms that he has head coaching experience from his 0:04:47.640 --> 0:04:50.080 time with the Cleveland Browns. He came up through the 0:04:50.080 --> 0:04:54.000 Eagles organizations, had two different stints as an assistant coach, 0:04:54.240 --> 0:04:56.880 and he's also learned the last couple of seasons from 0:04:56.960 --> 0:04:59.520 Chip Kelly, and I think he can combine some of 0:04:59.520 --> 0:05:01.839 the elements he's learned in the past and also some 0:05:01.960 --> 0:05:04.120 of what's worked when it comes to Chip Kelly. So 0:05:04.160 --> 0:05:07.400 if you're looking for stability, I think he's the closest 0:05:07.400 --> 0:05:09.960 who could provide it to kind of carry over what's 0:05:10.000 --> 0:05:12.520 happened the last couple of years, take the good from that, 0:05:12.720 --> 0:05:15.000 but kind of changed it and put his own little 0:05:15.000 --> 0:05:17.560 spin on it, mold it into his own. So from 0:05:17.600 --> 0:05:19.919 that standpoint, that's why I like Pat Schermer as a 0:05:19.920 --> 0:05:22.360 potential higher here for the Philadephia. You know the thing 0:05:22.360 --> 0:05:24.400 that Pat Schermer has done. He's come from the West 0:05:24.400 --> 0:05:27.160 Coast tree, the Andy Reid coaching tree, and he understands 0:05:27.200 --> 0:05:29.920 that offensive scheme, and he also learned a new way 0:05:29.960 --> 0:05:32.440 of doing things. And obviously what Chip did for the 0:05:32.480 --> 0:05:35.120 first couple of seasons here ten wins in both two 0:05:35.120 --> 0:05:38.640 thousand and thirteen and two and fourteen. You take some 0:05:38.720 --> 0:05:40.359 of that good with some of the things that happened 0:05:40.440 --> 0:05:44.000 last year. And Pat Shermer is candidate number one, and 0:05:44.520 --> 0:05:46.880 he's been there. Of the candidates, he's got two years 0:05:46.880 --> 0:05:51.040 of coaching experience, knows the Philadelphia market, knows the Philadelphia media, 0:05:51.120 --> 0:05:54.000 and knows this existing organization and the roster as well. 0:05:54.040 --> 0:05:57.360 So that is Pat Schremer the candidate internally who's got 0:05:57.400 --> 0:06:01.279 some head coaching experience. Another internal candidate running backs coach coach, 0:06:01.320 --> 0:06:05.080 deduced Staley has worked his way up the coaching ranks. 0:06:05.160 --> 0:06:10.120 Obviously a great player in Philadelphia, and Duce Staley knows 0:06:10.160 --> 0:06:12.800 the way it works with a player and the mindset 0:06:12.880 --> 0:06:15.279 of a player. And that's the advantage that Staley has 0:06:15.320 --> 0:06:18.040 obviously playing in Philadelphia, being a great running back here. 0:06:18.400 --> 0:06:21.839 Still a little young in his progression as a coach, 0:06:21.880 --> 0:06:25.560 but a valuable experience for Deuce. Interviewing for head coaching 0:06:25.680 --> 0:06:28.080 job Chris, and whether he gets his job or not, 0:06:28.200 --> 0:06:31.599 positions himself for some upward mobility, no question. I just 0:06:31.680 --> 0:06:34.240 love to hear dues coming from all the fans will 0:06:34.320 --> 0:06:37.000 come to Staley here at the Novercare Complex or at 0:06:37.000 --> 0:06:38.960 Lincoln Financial Field if he were to get the job. 0:06:38.960 --> 0:06:41.120 But as you mentioned, Dave, he has the playing experience 0:06:41.279 --> 0:06:44.400 and he's done well developing the guys on the roster, 0:06:44.520 --> 0:06:46.800 especially at the running back position. Over the last couple 0:06:46.839 --> 0:06:50.400 of seasons, we've seen the successful Lashawn McCoy has had 0:06:50.520 --> 0:06:53.560 during his tenure with the Philadelphia Eagles. So from that 0:06:53.680 --> 0:06:56.240 same point, he has the playing experience, he knows how 0:06:56.279 --> 0:06:58.440 to relate to players, he knows how to develop them, 0:06:58.640 --> 0:07:01.280 and look back in nineteen nine nine, Andy Reid was 0:07:01.320 --> 0:07:04.960 the quarterbacks coach, didn't have any coordinator experience. Well, Duce 0:07:05.040 --> 0:07:07.640 Daley is in that same position. He is a young, 0:07:07.880 --> 0:07:11.160 up and coming candidate. Is a time now we'll see, 0:07:11.240 --> 0:07:13.960 but definitely, like you said, if he's positioned himself nicely 0:07:14.000 --> 0:07:16.240 for the future here one way or the other. Candidate 0:07:16.320 --> 0:07:18.280 number three with us here and these are in no 0:07:18.360 --> 0:07:21.720 particular order, Doug Peterson. Now, the Eagles went out to 0:07:21.800 --> 0:07:24.960 Kansas City and interviewed Peterson after the Chiefs defeat of 0:07:25.000 --> 0:07:28.320 the Houston Texans on Saturday in that Wild Card game. 0:07:28.400 --> 0:07:32.760 Peterson the offensive coordinator underhead coach Andy Reid. In Kansas City. 0:07:32.920 --> 0:07:36.200 We know Peterson as the quarterback who helped pave the 0:07:36.240 --> 0:07:39.640 way for Donovan McNabb, the lane duck QB if you will. 0:07:40.040 --> 0:07:42.600 Peterson came to the Eagles in nineteen ninety nine with 0:07:42.840 --> 0:07:46.480 read to teach the Eagles the West Coast offense. It 0:07:46.600 --> 0:07:49.120 took a beating, but he did his job and then 0:07:49.200 --> 0:07:51.840 joined a coaching staff here has worked his way up. 0:07:51.920 --> 0:07:55.600 Chris very highly regarded around the league, has called some 0:07:55.680 --> 0:07:58.960 plays or least shared some of the duties with Andy 0:07:59.000 --> 0:08:02.080 Reid out in Kansas City. Calling the plays nosy West 0:08:02.080 --> 0:08:06.160 coach offense, doesn't have a ton of coaching experience. But 0:08:06.480 --> 0:08:08.760 for anyone who's mad, I mean we have. We see 0:08:08.800 --> 0:08:11.880 a rising star in Doug Peterson, a dynamic personality, no 0:08:12.000 --> 0:08:14.280 question about it. And again, like you said, Dave looked 0:08:14.360 --> 0:08:17.240 like with Staley, has the playing experience, has been the 0:08:17.320 --> 0:08:20.360 leader of teams, has been the quarterback here in Philadelphia, 0:08:20.400 --> 0:08:23.680 so he understands the market. And it's not just the 0:08:23.680 --> 0:08:26.880 West Coast principles. He's learned some different elements of different 0:08:26.920 --> 0:08:30.120 spread offenses the pistol during his time in Kansas City 0:08:30.320 --> 0:08:33.439 has adapted those and look, you look at this Chiefs offense. 0:08:33.720 --> 0:08:36.559 Alex Smith has developed into a nice quarterback. He doesn't 0:08:36.559 --> 0:08:38.720 turn the ball over very much. This is a run 0:08:38.760 --> 0:08:41.120 game that has continued to be productive even though they 0:08:41.160 --> 0:08:44.040 lost Jamal Charles midway through this season. And if you 0:08:44.080 --> 0:08:46.280 look at the numbers prior to his arrival in Kansas 0:08:46.320 --> 0:08:48.120 City and what the Chiefs have done in the last 0:08:48.120 --> 0:08:51.719 couple of years, Peterson has has put his stamp on 0:08:51.760 --> 0:08:53.640 this chief success and that's why they're playing in the 0:08:53.679 --> 0:08:56.240 Divisional round of the postseason. And so the Eagles confirming 0:08:56.280 --> 0:09:00.360 that they interviewed Peterson on Sunday. Now, obviously Peters and 0:09:00.400 --> 0:09:03.080 cannot come to terms with any team until after the 0:09:03.160 --> 0:09:06.079 Chiefs are finished in the playoffs. The Chiefs play at 0:09:06.120 --> 0:09:10.320 the New England Patriots on Saturday in Foxboro, Massachusetts. The 0:09:10.440 --> 0:09:15.400 next candidate, Ben McAdoo, offensive coordinator from the New York Giants. 0:09:15.840 --> 0:09:19.560 An innovative offensive mind. A former quarterbacks coaching green Fay 0:09:20.080 --> 0:09:22.880 worked very well with Aaron Rodgers there, has done some 0:09:22.920 --> 0:09:25.679 great things for Eli Manning the last couple of seasons 0:09:25.720 --> 0:09:28.960 with the New York Giants. The Eagles interviewed him last week. 0:09:29.200 --> 0:09:32.559 An intriguing name from the team up north. Chris, we 0:09:32.600 --> 0:09:35.200 don't know a whole lot about McAdoo other than what 0:09:35.320 --> 0:09:38.040 he looks a lot like him. He sounds a lot 0:09:38.080 --> 0:09:41.080 like him. So seems like it's a mini Andy Reid here. 0:09:41.200 --> 0:09:44.679 Possibly you look at the progression. Obviously Andy wasn't a coordinator, 0:09:44.720 --> 0:09:47.600 but still very similar in terms of his development in 0:09:47.720 --> 0:09:50.120 terms of the coaching ladder. But he's worked with some 0:09:50.280 --> 0:09:53.680 dynamic quarterbacks. You mentioned Rogers, you mentioned Manning, but look 0:09:53.679 --> 0:09:56.480 at the numbers and the success that they had working 0:09:56.480 --> 0:09:59.240 with macadoo, and that's something that you need in the NFL. 0:09:59.440 --> 0:10:02.480 You look at eight teams they're still in postseason contention, 0:10:02.720 --> 0:10:06.600 and they all have outstanding quarterbacks. The Eagles need to 0:10:06.600 --> 0:10:08.880 find out who their quarterback is going to be in 0:10:08.960 --> 0:10:11.920 twenty sixteen. With Sam Bradford said, to become a free 0:10:11.920 --> 0:10:13.960 agent and you want a guy who can be able 0:10:13.960 --> 0:10:17.800 to mold and develop that playmaker at that position. So certainly, 0:10:17.840 --> 0:10:19.880 when you look at the most important position in the game, 0:10:20.080 --> 0:10:21.960 if you can have someone like a Ben McAdoo who 0:10:22.040 --> 0:10:24.720 knows how to cultivate great quarterback play, that's definitely an 0:10:24.720 --> 0:10:27.080 asset to have. Yeah, in his late thirties, has already 0:10:27.080 --> 0:10:29.520 been with four teams in the league coaching in the 0:10:29.600 --> 0:10:32.960 NFL since two thousand and four. So despite the relatively 0:10:33.040 --> 0:10:36.480 young age by NFL head coaching standards, Ben McAdoo has 0:10:36.520 --> 0:10:40.400 a lot of experience understanding the league and someday will 0:10:40.400 --> 0:10:43.240 be a head coach. Could be in twenty sixteen with 0:10:43.320 --> 0:10:47.280 the Philadelphia Eagles now the Eagles. On Monday confirming their 0:10:47.320 --> 0:10:51.120 interview and intriguing one with former New York Giants head 0:10:51.120 --> 0:10:54.720 coach Tom Coughlin. Cofflin for twelve years, the head coach 0:10:55.000 --> 0:10:57.520 of the New York Giants two Super Bowl victories. He's 0:10:57.520 --> 0:11:01.720 won three in his nineteen years in the NFL working 0:11:01.720 --> 0:11:04.920 with Jacksonville. Working with the Giants started way back in 0:11:05.000 --> 0:11:08.600 the mid eighties with the Philadelphia Eagles as a wide 0:11:08.600 --> 0:11:11.800 receivers coach, and I mean at age sixty nine, it 0:11:11.800 --> 0:11:14.959 will be seventy when the season starts. Tom Coughlin brings 0:11:15.400 --> 0:11:19.080 instant credibility, instant respect, a lot of energy. If you 0:11:19.120 --> 0:11:22.760 want to restore order to an organization and set some 0:11:22.920 --> 0:11:27.079 discipline in place, Tom Cofflin could be the guy certainly 0:11:27.280 --> 0:11:29.920 brings a lot of attention to Philadelphia should this happen. 0:11:30.000 --> 0:11:33.040 Trist Tom Cofflin a name that kind of came into 0:11:33.440 --> 0:11:35.839 unto the forefront late last week, catching a lot of 0:11:35.840 --> 0:11:38.800 people by surprise. It makes a lot of sense when 0:11:38.840 --> 0:11:42.200 you understand the entire coaching field out there. Nobody has 0:11:42.240 --> 0:11:44.760 the resume of Tom Cofflin, no question about you. Look 0:11:44.760 --> 0:11:47.000 at the spectrum here of the coaching candidates, and you 0:11:47.080 --> 0:11:49.960 have the young and up and comers like Douce Daley, 0:11:50.160 --> 0:11:53.000 like Ben McAdoo. You have coach like Patch Shermer, who 0:11:53.000 --> 0:11:55.160 has been a head coach in the National Football League, 0:11:55.240 --> 0:11:58.679 and then you have the experience the veteran leadership the 0:11:58.800 --> 0:12:01.679 sea with a resume. Tom Coughlin, who is the winning 0:12:01.720 --> 0:12:04.440 his head coach in Jacksville Jaguar's history, was the first 0:12:04.520 --> 0:12:07.000 ever head coach of that franchise, and in the last 0:12:07.040 --> 0:12:09.240 twelve seasons, we've seen what he's done with the New 0:12:09.280 --> 0:12:11.679 York Giants, taking them to two Super Bowls. So he 0:12:11.679 --> 0:12:14.319 can thrive in a tough media market. He'll be able 0:12:14.320 --> 0:12:17.360 to handle Philadelphia. Like you said, Dave, he has had 0:12:17.400 --> 0:12:19.760 success here. He's been a coach here in Philadelphis who 0:12:19.800 --> 0:12:22.200 understands being here. I just think, like you said, if 0:12:22.200 --> 0:12:26.040 you're trying to instantly change the culture. You've talked about 0:12:26.040 --> 0:12:29.320 emotional intelligence, something that Jeffrey Leurier said during his press 0:12:29.360 --> 0:12:32.400 conference a week ago. That's something that Tom Coughlin will 0:12:32.400 --> 0:12:34.320 bring to the table with his ability to relate to 0:12:34.320 --> 0:12:36.760 his players. You've seen all the moving tributes from them 0:12:36.840 --> 0:12:39.640 from the time that he announced his resignation. No question 0:12:39.679 --> 0:12:42.040 that he left a lasting impact on that franchise. The 0:12:42.160 --> 0:12:44.319 question is with Coughlin, a how long would he want 0:12:44.320 --> 0:12:46.280 to be the head coach at age seventy when the 0:12:46.280 --> 0:12:49.160 two and sixteen season begins, and then what happened to 0:12:49.200 --> 0:12:51.559 the Giants in recent seasons. They won the Super Bowl 0:12:51.720 --> 0:12:54.160 in two eleven, but this has been a team that 0:12:54.200 --> 0:12:58.200 has really struggled in the last several seasons. They really 0:12:58.520 --> 0:13:00.040 did not put much of a great product on the 0:13:00.120 --> 0:13:04.040 field in two and fifteen. A lack of personnel. Yeah, 0:13:04.160 --> 0:13:05.880 that had a lot to do with it. Injuries, no 0:13:06.000 --> 0:13:08.240 question about it. The defensive side of the ball for 0:13:08.320 --> 0:13:11.600 the Giants could not keep pace with the prolific offense. 0:13:11.600 --> 0:13:14.840 So Tom Coughlin the latest candidate the Eagles have interviewed six. 0:13:15.360 --> 0:13:17.760 There is nothing scheduled as far as we know in 0:13:17.800 --> 0:13:21.080 the future. The NFL owners meetings this week in Houston. 0:13:21.559 --> 0:13:24.760 So we're either hitting the pause button, Chris, or maybe 0:13:24.800 --> 0:13:26.360 the Eagles have something going that they want to get 0:13:26.400 --> 0:13:29.160 done very quickly. There's a wait and see approach. Everyone's 0:13:29.240 --> 0:13:31.040 verying tree to find out what's going to happen here. 0:13:31.080 --> 0:13:34.360 Is there something beyond Monday's interview with Coughlin, or is 0:13:34.360 --> 0:13:37.040 it maybe there'll be one of these six guys Adam 0:13:37.120 --> 0:13:40.560 Gase in Miami. Five candidates so far that the Eagles 0:13:40.559 --> 0:13:43.400 have interviewed. Who remained candidates for this job in twenty 0:13:43.559 --> 0:13:46.000 and sixteen So that is our look at the coaching 0:13:46.040 --> 0:13:49.720 candidates to date for the Eagles vacant head coaching job. 0:13:50.080 --> 0:13:53.200 This is Eagles three sixty. When we return, we're going 0:13:53.240 --> 0:13:56.559 to talk about one of the Eagles young rising stars 0:13:56.600 --> 0:14:01.120 and wide receiver, Jordan Matthews.

It has been a highly productive two 0:15:48.480 --> 0:15:50.840 seasons in the NFL for the man to my left. 0:15:50.880 --> 0:15:54.400 We welcome you into our Extinity studio at the Novercare Complex. 0:15:54.440 --> 0:15:57.840 I'm Eagles insider Dave Spidero along with wide receiver Jordan Matthews, 0:15:58.200 --> 0:16:01.640 who is now Jordan. You're an NFL veteran? Now true? 0:16:02.160 --> 0:16:03.920 How does it feel? How's the body feel after season? 0:16:03.920 --> 0:16:06.760 I always wanted to understand that from a wide receiver, 0:16:06.840 --> 0:16:08.520 you run so much, you get hit so much. How 0:16:08.520 --> 0:16:10.560 do you feel the day after season? Surprisingly, actually I 0:16:10.600 --> 0:16:13.240 feel pretty good. I mean I dealt with some energies 0:16:13.360 --> 0:16:15.640 kind of in between the season, but e finishing off, 0:16:15.680 --> 0:16:18.800 I actually feel pretty pretty good. I'm excited about all 0:16:18.800 --> 0:16:21.160 season training. I'm gonna take a couple couple of weeks 0:16:21.960 --> 0:16:24.200 off just really get the body completely back. But then 0:16:24.480 --> 0:16:26.720 I think i'll be abready hit training completely healthy one dcent, 0:16:26.760 --> 0:16:28.600 So I'm excited about that. Do you just literally lay 0:16:28.640 --> 0:16:30.400 around for a couple of weeks and just stay away 0:16:30.440 --> 0:16:32.400 from everything? Um, you know, you definitely want to go 0:16:32.440 --> 0:16:34.480 see get to see some people, maybe hang out with 0:16:34.480 --> 0:16:36.120 some family members or some friends that you never get 0:16:36.160 --> 0:16:38.720 to spend time around. Uh, you know, travel a little bit, 0:16:39.440 --> 0:16:41.480 but the main thing is you definitely want to rest. 0:16:41.520 --> 0:16:43.520 I think sometimes I'm so round bunks because I'd like 0:16:43.560 --> 0:16:45.280 to do a lot of things that I look up 0:16:45.280 --> 0:16:46.800 and I'm like, man, I've i even rested. I've been 0:16:46.800 --> 0:16:48.920 flying everywhere. I've been doing things most of the day. 0:16:49.000 --> 0:16:51.040 So just actually trying to find a week or two 0:16:51.120 --> 0:16:54.320 just to actually sit back, chill, maybe go find somewhere 0:16:54.360 --> 0:16:56.720 to vacation app actually just kind of kick back and 0:16:56.760 --> 0:16:59.480 actually relaxed. Jordan, how would you kind of describe your 0:16:59.480 --> 0:17:02.480 first two seasons from an individual standpoint and other teams first, 0:17:02.480 --> 0:17:06.320 but from an individual standpoint, Um, I would say for me, 0:17:06.480 --> 0:17:09.400 I think, um, just stuff to build on is definitely motivation. 0:17:09.480 --> 0:17:12.160 I think I've left some meat on the bone. Um. 0:17:12.400 --> 0:17:14.680 You know, personally, I know that, you know, I could 0:17:14.680 --> 0:17:16.439 play better, and I think that, you know, when when 0:17:16.480 --> 0:17:18.920 people come to me with some of the numbers, may 0:17:19.200 --> 0:17:21.160 show me kind of what I've been able to accomplish, 0:17:21.320 --> 0:17:22.600 you know, with helping some of my teammates over the 0:17:22.640 --> 0:17:24.760 first two seasons. It actually just makes me that much 0:17:24.800 --> 0:17:26.679 hunger because I'm just like, man, like, this is what 0:17:26.720 --> 0:17:28.240 I've been able to do, and I feel like I'm 0:17:28.240 --> 0:17:30.240 not even close to my best then, you know, I 0:17:30.240 --> 0:17:32.880 feel like this guy's limit. Um. You know, I think 0:17:33.400 --> 0:17:35.919 a lot of my family members that called me, they 0:17:35.920 --> 0:17:38.040 were wondering if I would up said that didn't get 0:17:38.080 --> 0:17:39.919 to be a thousand yard mark. But I was like, 0:17:39.920 --> 0:17:42.320 you know, I think it's actually very fitting. I think, um, 0:17:42.359 --> 0:17:45.360 it's the perfect you know things to show that hey, 0:17:45.480 --> 0:17:47.760 you're not there yet, you can't You're still come up 0:17:47.760 --> 0:17:49.840 a little bit short. So that might be that extra 0:17:49.920 --> 0:17:51.879 value and that may be the extra rep that you do, 0:17:52.040 --> 0:17:53.639 you know, as far as work, and that may be 0:17:53.680 --> 0:17:55.399 the extra you know. A couple of minute she put 0:17:55.440 --> 0:17:57.719 on the judgment see and just really becoming the complete 0:17:57.720 --> 0:17:59.800 wide receiver I can be so, like I said, for me, 0:17:59.840 --> 0:18:02.480 I like the sky's modmit. I'm really excited about myself 0:18:02.480 --> 0:18:05.080 and this team moving forward. Does the game continue to 0:18:05.080 --> 0:18:07.640 slow down for you? I know it does to one degree, 0:18:07.640 --> 0:18:10.080 but does it continue as you go along? Yes? Definitely? Um. 0:18:10.320 --> 0:18:13.720 I mean, I mean I remember my first year. My 0:18:13.760 --> 0:18:16.359 stance would sometimes to be so tense. Can I be 0:18:16.359 --> 0:18:18.440 worried about so many things? I mean half the time 0:18:18.440 --> 0:18:20.480 I can actually see the check that Kelsey and Sam 0:18:20.560 --> 0:18:22.480 were gonna make before they even make it, So I'm 0:18:22.480 --> 0:18:24.960 already like, okay, well this cover is coming. Already know 0:18:25.040 --> 0:18:26.720 I'm getting the bar here, so I need to be ready. 0:18:26.720 --> 0:18:28.679 I need to give a good a good move, I 0:18:28.720 --> 0:18:31.680 think us. So it's crazy because sometimes you gotta wait 0:18:31.680 --> 0:18:33.880 to like the end of the season or midway through 0:18:33.880 --> 0:18:36.520 season and see some of these things started coming into fruition. 0:18:36.600 --> 0:18:38.439 But I mean even in the Dallas game, you know, 0:18:38.480 --> 0:18:41.040 we were able to hull up before that last call, 0:18:41.600 --> 0:18:44.080 and Sam was just like, hey do this, do this. 0:18:44.160 --> 0:18:46.600 If this guy gets this leverage, hit him with this move. 0:18:46.680 --> 0:18:49.440 He just does, and I'm like, okay, Well, once he 0:18:49.560 --> 0:18:51.480 lined up, I was an old game over. Already know 0:18:51.560 --> 0:18:53.960 it's coming. Just your rookie year, you just thinking about 0:18:54.000 --> 0:18:56.480 so many things. You rush things, you try too hard, 0:18:56.680 --> 0:18:59.280 be pressed. Now I really feel like I let the 0:18:59.320 --> 0:19:02.119 game come to me. Don't get me down by making mistake. 0:19:02.160 --> 0:19:04.359 I don't do all on it. I already know that 0:19:04.359 --> 0:19:05.720 that opportunity is going to come back. So it was 0:19:05.760 --> 0:19:07.960 just it's really excited for me moving into year three. 0:19:08.080 --> 0:19:09.960 We have obviously a lot of change coming for the 0:19:09.960 --> 0:19:12.600 Philadelphia Eagles. You are going to be impacted greatly by it, 0:19:12.840 --> 0:19:15.560 not only quarterback coach. We don't know what's gonna happen. 0:19:15.600 --> 0:19:17.200 How do you feel about everything kind of heading into 0:19:17.240 --> 0:19:21.080 this thing? You know, at the same time, it's hard 0:19:21.080 --> 0:19:23.960 to sometimes say like all the time you're excited, because 0:19:24.000 --> 0:19:27.560 then that might be some people maybe possibly losing jobs. 0:19:27.560 --> 0:19:29.600 That could be term a hole for other people. You know, 0:19:29.680 --> 0:19:31.680 I'm in a position where, you know, as a second 0:19:31.720 --> 0:19:33.760 round pick, you know, I've had a pretty good first 0:19:33.760 --> 0:19:35.640 two years that you know, maybe have a little bit 0:19:35.640 --> 0:19:38.439 more stability. But definitely I'm interested to see what's going 0:19:38.520 --> 0:19:40.480 to happen as far as the coach, as far as 0:19:40.480 --> 0:19:43.280 Sam you know, moving forward, Like I said, I've talked 0:19:43.280 --> 0:19:46.920 about one Sam back. You know, I'm definitely interested to 0:19:46.960 --> 0:19:48.360 see he's going to be our new coach. I hadn't 0:19:48.359 --> 0:19:50.720 definite but respect for coach Killing what he was able 0:19:50.720 --> 0:19:52.240 to do for this program and to do for me. 0:19:52.720 --> 0:19:54.679 But at the same time, you know, I think the 0:19:54.680 --> 0:19:56.320 thing that I'm the most you know, if I would 0:19:56.320 --> 0:19:58.240 be excited about anything, is just I feel like that 0:19:58.280 --> 0:20:00.600 competitive spirit is going to get litt you can get 0:20:00.800 --> 0:20:03.520 inside of everybody. Nobody can look at this off season like, Okay, 0:20:03.520 --> 0:20:05.159 I can rest, I know my coach is gonna be 0:20:05.359 --> 0:20:07.639 I can relax. It's a fresh leave for everybody, so 0:20:07.680 --> 0:20:09.040 people have to have their hard head on. I know 0:20:09.080 --> 0:20:10.640 there's gonna be a job interview and they come back. 0:20:10.880 --> 0:20:13.359 Jordan last one. I know you're super competitive. It's all 0:20:13.359 --> 0:20:15.760 about the team and you haven't experienced the thrill of 0:20:15.800 --> 0:20:19.040 the playoffs yet. I've gotta be that taste is there 0:20:19.080 --> 0:20:22.960 in you right, It definitely is like it's still weirs met. 0:20:23.000 --> 0:20:25.360 The season's over. You know, if you're a rookie year, 0:20:25.720 --> 0:20:28.000 there's nothing you've done so much. You finish college, you 0:20:28.040 --> 0:20:29.800 went straight to training, you went straight to combine, you 0:20:29.880 --> 0:20:32.159 went straight to senior ball, you come to commnicamp and 0:20:32.240 --> 0:20:34.359 you never stop, so by the time the season is 0:20:34.480 --> 0:20:36.280 you feel like you've been through the playoffs. At the time, 0:20:36.520 --> 0:20:39.240 especially if you have a productive rookie season, you're just like, man, 0:20:39.560 --> 0:20:42.400 you know, like if I get to breathe. But when 0:20:42.400 --> 0:20:45.360 it's over, as a veteran second year player, you're like, no, 0:20:45.640 --> 0:20:48.560 we gotta keep playing ball. We gotta win games. I mean, 0:20:48.600 --> 0:20:51.320 that Redskins game really hurt. You really hurt. And then 0:20:51.400 --> 0:20:54.080
