Speaker 1: Welcome everyone to Eagles three six to Eagles insider Dame
Speaker 1: Spidero along with Glenn mc now on this Tuesday. We've
Speaker 1: got a lot to talk about with this Philadelphia Eagles,
Speaker 1: first place team, first place teams. It feels better, doesn't
Speaker 1: it if you feel a little grinny after riding for
Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys on my Oh absolutely, I held my
Speaker 1: nose and there were times I couldn't do it, but
Speaker 1: you just you need the greater grid. It was actually
Speaker 1: perfect game because both teams look absolutely awful. Last two
Speaker 1: minutes of the game were terrific. Deshan Jackson just a
Speaker 1: phone head decision and then it comes back with a
Speaker 1: Touchdowt gat Yeah. And so the Cowboys. However, the Cowboys win,
Speaker 1: and all is good in the valley because now you
Speaker 1: have the real opportunity. Yeah, and all four teams are
Speaker 1: still in it in the NFC East. We will talk
Speaker 1: about the division of course a little later on, we'll
Speaker 1: talk about fantasy football and the playoffs situation that you
Speaker 1: might be in. Are you in the playoffs one out
Speaker 1: of two? Okay, then you're in as well, and we'll
Speaker 1: talk about this current Eagles team. Glenn, there's a lot
Speaker 1: going around about the team now, the reported DeMarco Murray
Speaker 1: unhappiness with his role or at least questioning his role
Speaker 1: in the offense. Ryan Matthews back on the practice field today. Good.
Speaker 1: Hopefully he'll be in line to play on Sunday against
Speaker 1: a really good Buffalo Bills team, which I think should
Speaker 1: not be underrated at all. I think they're really good.
Speaker 1: I thought it was really close. Yeah, really, and both
Speaker 1: teams kind of struggling for the playoffs. So you beat ship, Kelly,
Speaker 1: how are you gonna handle the running backs. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: not care for now about DeMarco Murray and his feelings.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna look at the opponent and decide what is best.
Speaker 1: I have four options there, and I will use all
Speaker 1: those options. That's the way to do. Down the road,
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to deal with DeMarco Murray and his
Speaker 1: contract and his unhappiness. But right now, you just got
Speaker 1: a win game. Yeah, and the Eagles do have depth.
Speaker 1: Why not use the depth, including Darren Sprowles and Kenyon Barner.
Speaker 1: So the Eagles making some moves with the roster. The
Speaker 1: Eagles back on the training field, putting the win on Sunday,
Speaker 1: behind them, looking ahead to the first of three straight
Speaker 1: home games. Huge moment for the Eagles here in December.
Speaker 1: Let's get you caught up with everything happening at the
Speaker 1: Overcare Complex. It's our Eagles three sixty update. Hi everyone,
Speaker 1: I'm Alex Smith and this is your three sixty update.
Speaker 1: The Eagles were back at work here at the Novicare
Speaker 1: Complex on Tuesday as they get set for another AFC matchup,
Speaker 1: this time with the Buffalo Bills as they come to
Speaker 1: Lincoln Financial Field on Sunday. The big story here at
Speaker 1: the Novicare Complex was the return of former Eagles running
Speaker 1: back with Sean McCoy. We heard defensive coordinator Bill Davis
Speaker 1: as well as players inside the locker room on what
Speaker 1: will be like to face the Eagles all time leading
Speaker 1: rusher Shady Hunt topping right now, he's playing the best
Speaker 1: you've seen him play. He's peaking right now, like like
Speaker 1: he does a lot of times. I think always in
Speaker 1: November in December, you've seen him be at his best.
Speaker 1: I know he has a specific skill set. Really, I
Speaker 1: think he's the only back in the league with with
Speaker 1: you know what he has. UM. He's obviously um probably
Speaker 1: one of the most elusive runners in the game. Um,
Speaker 1: it's definitely gonna be emotional. The fans reactions are going
Speaker 1: to be emotional. I think Shady was loved here by
Speaker 1: a lot of people. Are the fans especially. I think
Speaker 1: the fans love him. I don't know. We'll see on
Speaker 1: Sunday how they ultimately felt. One thing we do know
Speaker 1: that he does love to you know, cut cut back,
Speaker 1: and you know, change the direction of the field. So
Speaker 1: I just don't want to end up on them nobody's
Speaker 1: highlight type. Last night, the Dallas Cowboys defeat at the
Speaker 1: Washington Redskins on a late field goal, and as a result,
Speaker 1: the Eagles, Redskins, and Giants are now all tied for
Speaker 1: first place at five and seven, And while the five
Speaker 1: and seven record isn't exactly where the Eagles thought they
Speaker 1: would be at this point in the season, we heard
Speaker 1: from players on still being tied for first at this point.
Speaker 1: Somebody told me we'd be in first place. How to
Speaker 1: believe them? But but you know, the means in which
Speaker 1: we had to get there is obviously, uh something I
Speaker 1: don't think anybody predicted. You can believe anything. You believe
Speaker 1: what you're wanted with that's the maintain he's just saying it,
Speaker 1: but you gotta believe, and I think for the team
Speaker 1: that everybody's sticking to the other fan but leaving each other.
Speaker 1: And finally, an injury update here from the Novacare Complex.
Speaker 1: Running back Ryan Matthews did return to the practice field
Speaker 1: today and afterwards he spoke about how he feels and
Speaker 1: how he's optimistic to return to the lineup on Sunday. Speed. Um,
Speaker 1: you know, it's amazing how how the speed can change,
Speaker 1: you know, and uh so how fast it if you know,
Speaker 1: you take a few days off, a week off, a
Speaker 1: couple of weeks off, you know, and come back, it's fast.
Speaker 1: So you know, you start to get the timing down
Speaker 1: and uh you know, just really get your legs back
Speaker 1: under you and every day and that will wrap things
Speaker 1: up for this edition of the three sixty Update. Be
Speaker 1: sure to stay tuned to Philadelphia Eagles dot com throughout
Speaker 1: the week for all of the latest Eagles news. Thanks
Speaker 1: so much, Alex. When we return to Eagles three sixty,
Speaker 1: we're going to talk about the win on Sunday. We
Speaker 1: talked about it all last week. Big games, big moments,
Speaker 1: big upsets. Well, the Eagles certainly pulled one off on Sunday.
Speaker 1: Where does it rank in the mind of Glenn mcdowe
Speaker 1: in terms of all time Eagles upsets. We've got that
Speaker 1: and his takeaways in just a moment. Pair small brides
Speaker 1: with your favorite for two fifty on the break menu
Speaker 1: at McDonald's. I got tickets, Metro tickets. You need a

Speaker 1: I'm paying myself. I gotta make Does a baby need

Speaker 1: I can see every touchdown from every game. Sunday afternoons
Speaker 1: we can still see you get NFL Red Zone from
Speaker 1: NFL Network. Click to learn more. We welcome you back
Speaker 1: at the Eagles three to sixty insider Dave Spider along
Speaker 1: with Glenn macdown. We will wrap up the win against
Speaker 1: New England right here. And it was really an incredible game,
Speaker 1: big play after big play, Eagles digging out from a
Speaker 1: fourteen to nothing deficit, and it was a huge upset,
Speaker 1: let's be honest. Play. We talked about it last week.
Speaker 1: Where do you think it ranks? You know, it remains
Speaker 1: to be seen because at the end of the year,
Speaker 1: if they make the playoffs and this was the turning point,
Speaker 1: it will be a huge upset. The best upset I
Speaker 1: could ever find, and you and I talked about it
Speaker 1: last week. Was when Dick Vermeil goes to Dallas in
Speaker 1: nineteen seventy nine beats the Cowboys. Eagles hadn't beating them
Speaker 1: in however, many games, eight games, ten games, twenty games,
Speaker 1: and that really helped turn around the franchise. If the
Speaker 1: Eagles don't win over the next few weeks, this game
Speaker 1: will be a footnote. If the Eagles do, this will
Speaker 1: be one of the great upsets. Yeah, and the fact
Speaker 1: that the Patriots were shorthanded perhaps tamped down that the
Speaker 1: idea of this huge upset. But don't Yeah, no, but
Speaker 1: still in the moment, you understand that the Eagles defense
Speaker 1: going against a New England offense, had missed some of
Speaker 1: its key pieces, particularly Julie Julian Edelman, Rob Gronkowski in
Speaker 1: the running back situation with Dion what's his name? Dean Lewis,
Speaker 1: thank you very much out for the season. So New
Speaker 1: England was missing some pieces. They got creative. But a
Speaker 1: really nice game from the field, your takeaways. I talked
Speaker 1: about it all day. Here you go. Number one. The
Speaker 1: star of the game was Fletcher Cox and that was
Speaker 1: discussed a little bit today in the defensive coordinators news conference. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Barwin and Graham each had the two sacks, but it
Speaker 1: was Fletcher Cox who was the one inside running up
Speaker 1: pushing Brady out of the middle. He had was credited
Speaker 1: with ten hurries. Tom Brady was hit thirteen times in
Speaker 1: this game. He's not used to that. He doesn't like that.
Speaker 1: And now, by the way, dave a little tip of
Speaker 1: the cat the caps to a guy that you and
Speaker 1: I have debated over time. Vinny Curry played a lot,
Speaker 1: played very effect Yes he did, all right, So number
Speaker 1: two Lane Johnson, I thought, had his best game of
Speaker 1: the season. Played the entire game at right tackle, where
Speaker 1: it seems he's a little more comfortable right now. Had
Speaker 1: a penalty early on, but after that, no pressures at
Speaker 1: all on the quarterback from right tackle Jason Peters. He
Speaker 1: did have that game saving block at the end, but
Speaker 1: he was called for five penalties during the game, and
Speaker 1: that was that was problematic. And I thought that Matt
Speaker 1: Tobin really worked nice and I think I'm not sure
Speaker 1: we're referenced it earlier in the day, working with Johnson
Speaker 1: getting out to the edge. The Eagles clearly wanted to
Speaker 1: run to the edge, and that's why they went with
Speaker 1: Darren Sprowls and Barner rather than DeMarco Murray. Really good
Speaker 1: show of athleticism from Tobin from Kelsey Eagles. I thought
Speaker 1: they'd a nice job inside on the offensive line. All right. Well,
Speaker 1: then let's talk about the running game as number three,
Speaker 1: because that's one of them, which is Chip finally took
Speaker 1: the different look at the running game. People have been
Speaker 1: talking about this debating at the entire time and with
Speaker 1: Matthews out, what are they gonna do? Well? He did
Speaker 1: it this time with Sprowles getting the most work he
Speaker 1: got since early last season, with Kenyan Barner, who we
Speaker 1: talked about last week getting in there. Those guys combined
Speaker 1: twenty four carries for one hundred and five, DeMarco Murray
Speaker 1: eight for twenty four. Now, so what is it going
Speaker 1: to mean going down the road? What is it going
Speaker 1: to mean against the Bills? Against the Bills powerbacks have
Speaker 1: done well Spencer wear from Casey, Chris Erie from the Jets.
Speaker 1: They've done better against guys like Lamar Miller from Miami.
Speaker 1: So how's that going to play out this well? I
Speaker 1: think DeMarco is a good inside runner. We saw it
Speaker 1: on the nineteen yard gain he had in the fourth
Speaker 1: quarter to the Edges. Mixed bag with DeMarco this season
Speaker 1: clearly does not have that up the field quickness that
Speaker 1: Ryan Matthews has, that Darren Sprowles has, but there certainly
Speaker 1: is an important place in this offense for DeMarco Murray
Speaker 1: We've not heard from him today. We expect to hear
Speaker 1: from him later in the week, and this might be
Speaker 1: a better week for him given how Buffalo plays defense.
Speaker 1: All right, Number four, let's talk about Sam Bradford a
Speaker 1: little bit. Who played well. He didn't play great, but
Speaker 1: he had no turnovers and of course stats the key
Speaker 1: and what I really liked is he stood in there
Speaker 1: a couple of times under pressure. He completed two very
Speaker 1: important third down passes under pressure. The touchdowns under pressure,
Speaker 1: the one to Riley Cooper at the end that was
Speaker 1: big and no turnovers. Here's my one concern. Never throws deep.
Speaker 1: There really wasn't a thrower of fifteen yards, and I
Speaker 1: think the opportunities were there still checking down way too.
Speaker 1: You didn't see the opportunities down a fantasy wide receivers
Speaker 1: open down the field. I'm not sure the route tree
Speaker 1: allows a lot of options down the field, and I
Speaker 1: think that's something the Eagles must add to this offense.
Speaker 1: You've got to stretch the defense now, perhaps they will
Speaker 1: go a little deeper. The Bills are down one cornerbacks
Speaker 1: Deevon Gilmour won't play this week. Buffalo has just four
Speaker 1: healthy cornerbacks. Perhaps Jonathan Krauss, who made his debut as
Speaker 1: an Eagle on Sunday, caught the shallow cross. He's got
Speaker 1: the speed to go down the field. We know Sam
Speaker 1: has the arm to get it down there. We've got
Speaker 1: to get make sure the Eagles give him time against
Speaker 1: a really good pass rush they had on Sunday and
Speaker 1: a good front here. I thought Sam Bradford had the
Speaker 1: most impressive one hundred and twenty yard passing day because
Speaker 1: he didn't turntakes, because the Eagles were two of two
Speaker 1: in the red zone, an area they've struggled, and because
Speaker 1: of that third down pass to Riley Cooper on third
Speaker 1: and eleven. That was a bullet under pressure, all right,
Speaker 1: So you and I will both look this week to
Speaker 1: see if guys are open deeper because you've got to
Speaker 1: get it right. And number five, it was great to
Speaker 1: see Malcolm Jenkins back in the slot, which where he
Speaker 1: has kind of Billy Davis had pulled him away from
Speaker 1: there over the last few weeks. He's clearly better in there.
Speaker 1: And on the Nickel who was playing the slot and
Speaker 1: he had a great, great game, had had the hurry
Speaker 1: on the blitz was great, and coverage and of course
Speaker 1: had the ninety nine yard interception. That's where Malcolm Jenkins
Speaker 1: is most effective. That's where he played, and I think
Speaker 1: that's where's gonna play against the brol And I actually
Speaker 1: think that maybe his most effective play. It's obviously more
Speaker 1: difficult to it's difficult to trump ninety nine intercept returned
Speaker 1: for a touchdown. But two snaps earlier, New England gets
Speaker 1: down to the one yard line there first in goal,
Speaker 1: they're rushing, hurrying, hurrying. The Eagles understand that that's what
Speaker 1: they do in those situations, and they handed off the
Speaker 1: football and Jenkins made penetration and had a big tackle
Speaker 1: for a loss and that pushed the Patriots back just enough.
Speaker 1: On second down, Brady throws it out of the endzone.
Speaker 1: Third down, of course, the interception return. I thought that
Speaker 1: first down tackle really set the tone for the Eagles
Speaker 1: defense in that stand, and it was a goal line
Speaker 1: stand that ultimately won the game for him. That was it, man, Yeah,
Speaker 1: jumping out of the chair. See yeah, so good. Those
Speaker 1: are your takeaways. Nice win for the Eagles over the
Speaker 1: New England Patriots. And now we focus on what's ahead
Speaker 1: for the Philadelphia Eagles. And what's ahead is a chance
Speaker 1: to win the NFC East. Three teams tied at five
Speaker 1: and seven one the Dallas Cowboys at four and eight.
Speaker 1: When we returned to Eagles three sixty, we're gonna talk
Speaker 1: about the tour in playoff race in the NFC East night.

Speaker 1: welcome you back to Eagles three sixty Dave Spidero Eagles
Speaker 1: Insider with Clinton mcnow. We're gonna take a trip around
Speaker 1: the NFC East, brought to you by Bob's Discount Furniture.
Speaker 1: And it's kind of been that season for the NFC
Speaker 1: East and now as we head down that stretch around
Speaker 1: the final quarter of the season, it's all jam together,
Speaker 1: just like we thought it would be. Glenn, as you
Speaker 1: handicapped his race, who's the lead horse in the race?
Speaker 1: I think it's the Eagles now. And I'm really I'm
Speaker 1: really not saying that because I'm here, and here's here's
Speaker 1: why I think it's the Eagles now. Um Washington, Washington
Speaker 1: loses its home to Dallas last night. They're just not
Speaker 1: a very good team. They make dumb mistakes. They can't tackle,
Speaker 1: they drop a lot of passes, and I don't trust
Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins in a playoff race. They're currently technically ahead
Speaker 1: because of head to head, but they got a tough
Speaker 1: schedule too. They're at the Bears. That's not so tough.
Speaker 1: They got the Bills. Well, okay, maybe not. They got
Speaker 1: the Bills. Yeah, pardon me. I think Chicago is a
Speaker 1: pretty good team, Okay, especially alright, you know what, maybe
Speaker 1: they are lost. They Chicago lost to San Francisco, and
Speaker 1: maybe Chicago comes back this week, and only because Washington
Speaker 1: hasn't won a way, hasn't won on the road field, right,
Speaker 1: And they have three I said they have a touch gin. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but they have three on the road now, and amazingly,
Speaker 1: we're gonna probably have to depend on the Cowboys one
Speaker 1: more time at the end to beat them the last
Speaker 1: week to win it. So that's I think they're just
Speaker 1: not a very good team. The Giants, who seemed always
Speaker 1: to me to be the alternative if the Eagles didn't
Speaker 1: win it, they're really hitting the skids right now. They've
Speaker 1: lost I think three in a row, four out of
Speaker 1: the last five. Here a couple of things with the Giants.
Speaker 1: They get no pass rush whatsoever, right, and that's hell
Speaker 1: on them. That's what they always want on and their offense.
Speaker 1: All of their money this year went into their offense.
Speaker 1: They're supposed to score thirty points a game. They've only
Speaker 1: done that four times. And now left tackle Eric Flowers
Speaker 1: with a high ankle sprain. So that's a real problem
Speaker 1: for Eli Manning that blindside not protected. Well, Dallas Cowboys
Speaker 1: still in it, well theoretically, but no Green Bay game
Speaker 1: on the road. Yeah, let's see who do they have. Okay,
Speaker 1: so they're at the Packers. They got to lose that,
Speaker 1: I think, So Okay, they're home to the Jets. The
Speaker 1: Jets are pretty good. Yep, They're at the Bills, and
Speaker 1: then they're December, and then they host Washington and then
Speaker 1: they host Washington. So no, I don't think Dallas can
Speaker 1: be it. I think it's going to be a tie
Speaker 1: in the end somewhere, which means it's going to be
Speaker 1: head to head and I really and look, I think
Speaker 1: the Eagles schedule is very difficult down the stretch, even
Speaker 1: though there were three games at Lincoln Financial Field. Buffalo
Speaker 1: is a good quality football team. The Arizona Cardinals. We
Speaker 1: know what they've done. They're leading the NFC West. They're outstanding.
Speaker 1: Then Washington comes to town. Okay, that's a win, we think,
Speaker 1: but still a good team, and they seem to have
Speaker 1: the Eagle's number a little bit here and particularly Ryan
Speaker 1: Carrigan against Lane Johnson. And then the season goes to
Speaker 1: FedEx Or to a MetLife Stadium. Eagles and the Giants
Speaker 1: could possibly be flexed. Could the Eagles possibly play Arizona
Speaker 1: on Sunday night, Washington on Saturday night and then the
Speaker 1: Giants on Sunday night with the division at States. Yes,
Speaker 1: they could all have straight primetime game. Doesn't happen unless
Speaker 1: the Eagles take care of business starting Sunday. And you know,
Speaker 1: you know who's gonna Buffalo the Bills, my childhood team. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's what's going to decide the vision because they still
Speaker 1: play three of these NFC teams, So that's gonna be
Speaker 1: the key. Yeah, and now the Bills will have a
Speaker 1: little bit of incentive we know with Lashan McCoy. We'll
Speaker 1: talk about that a little bit later in the show.
Speaker 1: When we return, we're going to talk about fantasy football

Speaker 1: here to give his spin about the playoffs. The playoffs, Yes,
Speaker 1: it's fantasy football. Hi everyone, and welcome to another edition
Speaker 1: of Fantasy Spin, presented by Bud Light. I'm Alex Smith,
Speaker 1: joined by Joe Dolan, the managing editor of Fantasy grew
Speaker 1: dot com. Joe, let's start things off today by talking
Speaker 1: about the Eagles running backs. Obviously, one of the most
Speaker 1: surprising storylines from that big win for the Eagles over
Speaker 1: the Patriots on Sunday was that DeMarco Murray only had
Speaker 1: eight carries. So, if you're a fantasy owner out there
Speaker 1: right now, what do you do with the Eagles backs. Well, unfortunately,
Speaker 1: you've just got to consider it a complete running back
Speaker 1: by committee at this point. And the Eagles are the
Speaker 1: Eagles have to win games, Alex. They're in first place
Speaker 1: right now, the first Maybe they're a little lucky they're
Speaker 1: in first place, but nonetheless they're in first. They've got
Speaker 1: to try to win games and get to the playoffs.
Speaker 1: They've got to do it with the most effective players
Speaker 1: in their backfield, and for now that appears to be
Speaker 1: Darren Sproles until Ryan Matthews gets back. I can't remember
Speaker 1: the last time Darren Sproles had nineteen offensive touches in
Speaker 1: a game, but he had it against the Patriots, and
Speaker 1: the Patriots really had no answer for Darren Sprowles. Now,
Speaker 1: I assume the Eagles are going to try to get
Speaker 1: to Marco where we're going this week against Buffalo, which
Speaker 1: has had a little bit of a worse run defense
Speaker 1: than people think. But I'm expecting a committee approach in
Speaker 1: the Eagles backfields. It's going to be game to game,
Speaker 1: and I think you're going to have to essentially roll
Speaker 1: the dice if you start Murray Sprowls or hopefully coming
Speaker 1: back soon, Ryan Matthews, Ryan Matthews is a guy I've
Speaker 1: been telling anybody who asked me, he's out there on
Speaker 1: your waiver wire, go pick him up. He was incredibly
Speaker 1: effective earlier in the season before his concussion. I really
Speaker 1: hope Ryan Matthews gets healthy and gets on the fields.
Speaker 1: His health certainly is priority number one. I'm sure he's
Speaker 1: itching to get back on the field, and when he does,
Speaker 1: I would expect to see him have a significant role.
Speaker 1: So Ryan Matthews is a guy who could in the
Speaker 1: last three or two or three weeks of the right
Speaker 1: of the season, including your fantasy playoffs, I think he's
Speaker 1: somebody who can end up carrying your team. But back
Speaker 1: to the full point, it's gonna be a committee approach.
Speaker 1: I think it's going to be. They're gonna give DeMarco
Speaker 1: Murray crack. If he's effective, he's gonna keep getting crack.
Speaker 1: They're gonna give Darren Sproles a crack. If he's effective,
Speaker 1: he's going to keep getting cracks. And if Ryan Matthews
Speaker 1: isn't back, they're gonna give Kenyon Barner a shot. So
Speaker 1: if you're using any of these guys, you've just got
Speaker 1: to hope their first couple carries go really well because
Speaker 1: they're gonna get carries. Then for the rest of the game, Joe,
Speaker 1: the fantasy football playoffs are upon us, well for most
Speaker 1: of us anyway. Earlier we've gone over guys who had
Speaker 1: good playoff schedules and bad playoff schedules. But just for
Speaker 1: this week in particular, who are a couple of good
Speaker 1: matchups that you like? Well, there's an obvious one of
Speaker 1: the quarterback position, that's Jamis Winston, and the Tampa Bay
Speaker 1: Buccaneer's Jamis Winston playing very well. I would assume he's
Speaker 1: the front runner for Rookie of the Year right now,
Speaker 1: and he's going up against the New Orleans Saints, who
Speaker 1: have I think Ron Jaworski called it arguably the worst
Speaker 1: defense he's ever seen, and the numbers back that up.
Speaker 1: Jameis Winston, in his second career start, accounted for two touchdowns,
Speaker 1: including a rushing touchdown against the Saints, and he is
Speaker 1: playing a lot better now than he was earlier in
Speaker 1: the season. So I think Jameis Winston at home has
Speaker 1: a good shot at putting up a multiple TV performance
Speaker 1: this week if you need a streaming quarterback. Additionally, Devontae Parker,
Speaker 1: the rookie receiver of the Miami Dolphins. He had a
Speaker 1: touchdown last week. The Dolphins didn't throw the ball basically
Speaker 1: at all, as they were focusing on the run game
Speaker 1: under new offensive coordinator Zach Taylor, but Devontae Parker had
Speaker 1: a touchdown catching his first career start. Made an incredibly
Speaker 1: athletic play. So Devonte Parker is somebody against the New
Speaker 1: York Giants this week. That poor secondary, that bad defense
Speaker 1: with very little pass rush. I'm excited to see what
Speaker 1: he can do. And Joe, how about the opposite side
Speaker 1: of that coin. Two guys who don't have such a
Speaker 1: good matchup this week. Yeah. Latavius Murray of the Oakland Raiders,
Speaker 1: the running back actually ended up having this past week
Speaker 1: his best game since Week three against the Browns against
Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs. However, he's going up against the
Speaker 1: Denver Broncos this week. He had only thirteen carries for
Speaker 1: thirty nine yards back in Week five. Not exactly a
Speaker 1: matchup I am looking to exploit. If I have Latavius Murray,
Speaker 1: He's a flex at best. And then Julio Jones of
Speaker 1: the Atlanta Falcons going up against Josh Norman and the
Speaker 1: Carolina Panthers. Look, this Falcon offense has been abysmal of late,
Speaker 1: and I think a lot of that's on Matt Ryan
Speaker 1: and Josh Norman is the type of corner who can
Speaker 1: shut down a number one receiver. I think if you
Speaker 1: have Julio, you just gotta suck it up and play him. Understand,
Speaker 1: this is a brutal matchup and there is no way
Speaker 1: I'm touching Matt Ryan in this game. Our thanks to

Speaker 1: Three sixty. Eagles insider Dave Spiderow, along with Glenn MacNell,
Speaker 1: who I must pat on the shoulder, correctly predicted last
Speaker 1: week that the Eagles would sack Tom Brady, Tom terrific,
Speaker 1: Tom Amazing four times, and in fact they did Connor
Speaker 1: Barwin and Brandon Graham two each. So give us a
Speaker 1: tease of what you got in store for Buffalo. All right,
Speaker 1: So here's one thing, and we're gonna talk about Lashawn
Speaker 1: McCoy all week, clearly, and by Thursday i'll give you
Speaker 1: his overunder on yardage. But here's the thing that I
Speaker 1: think is going to be interesting to watch, and I'll
Speaker 1: make this prediction. Tyrod Taylor is a running quarterback. The
Speaker 1: Eagles have only really faced two running quarterbacks this year
Speaker 1: in Cam Newton and Jameis Winston. Winston didn't really run
Speaker 1: at all against him. I'm gonna tell you this, he's
Speaker 1: gonna run. Tyrod Taylor is gonna run for fifty yards
Speaker 1: against the Eagles. Doesn't mean Eagles are gonna lose, but
Speaker 1: it's something we haven't really seen this year, and I
Speaker 1: think it's going to happen this week. Not sure that's
Speaker 1: a good thing. If he's running for fifty yards, I'm
Speaker 1: not sure it's a good thing either. And I can't
Speaker 1: wait to hear you're over under for Lashawn McCoy, who
Speaker 1: has not been shy talking about this return to Philadelphia,
Speaker 1: and it's certainly a rivalry game for him, a revenge game, Glenn.
Speaker 1: And later in the week, we're gonna talk about some
Speaker 1: of the Eagles players who've left town and come back
Speaker 1: in opposing uniforms, the success rate, the thrill rate, some
Speaker 1: games that will just never forget. I thought the Terall Owens,
Speaker 1: that's the one game that one fantastic. Otherwise, what do
Speaker 1: we have on the menu for you? Are m rosso
Speaker 1: was on the menu segment here? Well, we're gonna take
Speaker 1: our first look at Eagles and bills tomorrow with myself
Speaker 1: and Joe de camera here and of course Ship Kelly
Speaker 1: has weekly exclusive one on one presented by WAH WAH
Speaker 1: will have him in studio for Wednesday's show. I will
Speaker 1: look at the Eagles defense on Philadelphia Eagles dot Com
Speaker 1: and impressive performance against Tom Brady. How equipped are the
Speaker 1: Eagles down the st wretch? How do you feel about that?
Speaker 1: How do we feel about Eagles? Understand? Yeah? Defense? Um,
Speaker 1: if they can play as they play the other day,
Speaker 1: I feel pretty good about it. Glenn mcnow, thank you
Speaker 1: so much for joining us. Great stuff. We'll see you
