WEBVTT - Post Game Show: Eagles Beat The Texans 0:00:25.400 --> 0:00:28.440 Hello Eagles fans, and welcome to the postgame show. President 0:00:28.480 --> 0:00:31.400 of by Rico. I'm Chris McPherson alongside I Greece. We're 0:00:31.440 --> 0:00:33.960 gonna hear from Greg Hosell later on in the show. 0:00:34.040 --> 0:00:36.320 The Eagles getting back on the winning side of things 0:00:36.360 --> 0:00:38.519 with a thirty one to twenty one victory over the 0:00:38.520 --> 0:00:40.960 Houston Texans to get to six and two on the season, 0:00:41.200 --> 0:00:43.760 and coupled with a Cowboys loss, they will be in 0:00:43.840 --> 0:00:46.800 first place in the MC East. But the question is 0:00:47.080 --> 0:00:49.320 at what costs as Nick Foles left the game in 0:00:49.360 --> 0:00:52.479 the first quarter with a shoulder injury and linebacker Damiko 0:00:52.640 --> 0:00:55.560 Ryans went out with an ankle injury in the fourth quarter, 0:00:55.840 --> 0:00:59.240 but stepping up Mark Sanchez coming into the game and 0:00:59.440 --> 0:01:02.600 leading the offense very efficiently. We check out the boss 0:01:02.600 --> 0:01:05.319 score fifteen to twenty two for two hundred and two 0:01:05.400 --> 0:01:08.520 yards and two touchdowns, the last one to Jerry Macklin 0:01:08.560 --> 0:01:11.160 to seal the game in the fourth quarter. The Eagles 0:01:11.240 --> 0:01:13.920 relying on the run game, McCoy going for twenty three 0:01:13.959 --> 0:01:17.160 carries one hundred and seventeen yards, and Macklin, with a 0:01:17.240 --> 0:01:20.000 big game, gets the first touchdown and the last touchdown 0:01:20.080 --> 0:01:22.280 of the day, six catches one hundred and fifty eight 0:01:22.360 --> 0:01:24.840 yards a pair scores for him and Jordan Matthews. Who 0:01:24.880 --> 0:01:27.520 is Mark Sanchez go to guy all throughout the training 0:01:27.520 --> 0:01:30.360 camp and the preseason. He caught the first touchdown pass 0:01:30.440 --> 0:01:33.720 from Sanchez in this game to get the Eagles going one. 0:01:33.800 --> 0:01:37.000 Sanchez went in. But like overall your thoughts on Mark 0:01:37.080 --> 0:01:41.000 Sanchez stepping up and playing for Nick folsterday, he did 0:01:41.000 --> 0:01:42.600 a great job. I mean, it really was the tale 0:01:42.600 --> 0:01:44.679 of two halves. In the first half, I thought the 0:01:44.720 --> 0:01:47.920 Eagles relied heavily on the passing game and it paid 0:01:47.960 --> 0:01:50.120 all for him, as they were able to get seventeen 0:01:50.160 --> 0:01:52.120 points in that first half, but it also costs them. 0:01:52.120 --> 0:01:54.560 They turned the ball over a few times through the 0:01:54.560 --> 0:01:56.640 passing game. To come out in the second half, they 0:01:56.640 --> 0:01:59.120 made a conscious effort to run the ball in the 0:01:59.160 --> 0:02:01.360 second half, they died nominated at the time of possession. 0:02:01.640 --> 0:02:04.200 Shady McCoy got the ball in the second half, Chris 0:02:04.240 --> 0:02:07.440 Polk ran hard picking up key first downs, and then 0:02:07.520 --> 0:02:10.080 Darren spros this guy is a first down maker. There 0:02:10.080 --> 0:02:12.359 were times where he looked to be stopped short of 0:02:12.480 --> 0:02:14.720 the first time first down and it was just sheer 0:02:15.160 --> 0:02:18.119 will and effort that allowed him to pick up those 0:02:18.160 --> 0:02:20.120 first downs. So really it was a teller two halves. 0:02:20.160 --> 0:02:22.240 Great job in the first half taking care of a 0:02:22.280 --> 0:02:26.280 depleted Houston secondary, But I thought Chip Kelly recognized that 0:02:26.400 --> 0:02:28.480 there were some mistakes being made in the passing game 0:02:28.720 --> 0:02:31.000 and wanted to go to a more ball controlled offense 0:02:31.000 --> 0:02:33.000 in the second half. He was able to do that. 0:02:33.200 --> 0:02:35.399 Lost some key players in the second half that we'll 0:02:35.440 --> 0:02:37.520 get into we'll talk about a little bit, but losing 0:02:37.600 --> 0:02:41.639 Harriman's on the offensive line also aided in their efforts 0:02:41.680 --> 0:02:43.560 are going with the running game. And you know what, 0:02:43.720 --> 0:02:47.320 I know we lost key players Nick Foles, Damko Ryan's today, 0:02:47.440 --> 0:02:50.640 but I tell you what not that they're backups. Came 0:02:50.680 --> 0:02:53.240 in there and did the same thing those guys would 0:02:53.240 --> 0:02:55.200 do if they were playing. But I didn't notice that 0:02:55.200 --> 0:02:56.960 there were backups in there. And that's the one thing 0:02:57.000 --> 0:02:59.280 I like about this team. Chip Kelly has this thing 0:02:59.320 --> 0:03:02.040 with the next man up when someone goes down. Well, 0:03:02.280 --> 0:03:04.639 each guy that had to step up today in place 0:03:04.760 --> 0:03:06.960 of a key injury starter, they did a very good 0:03:07.040 --> 0:03:09.320 job and it didn't look like the Eagles offensively or 0:03:09.440 --> 0:03:12.880 defensively miss the beat. Just an all around great win. 0:03:13.040 --> 0:03:15.519 I think the numbers will skew how well the deep 0:03:15.560 --> 0:03:17.480 has played for the majority part of the game. I 0:03:17.480 --> 0:03:20.959 thought they basically hurt themselves with two drives there. But 0:03:21.639 --> 0:03:23.880 all in all, you needed to get this win on 0:03:23.919 --> 0:03:27.040 the road. They split two tough role games Cardinals Houston 0:03:27.200 --> 0:03:29.400 couldn't afford to lose both. They get the one here 0:03:29.680 --> 0:03:32.200 in Houston when they depleted team. I think it was 0:03:32.200 --> 0:03:35.120 a very good effort. I was definitely impressed with the 0:03:35.200 --> 0:03:38.400 running game, particularly in the red zone. They made an 0:03:38.400 --> 0:03:40.720 effort to run the ball in the red zone, and 0:03:40.800 --> 0:03:42.720 I think it's set up the passing plays to play 0:03:42.760 --> 0:03:45.920 action pass to Jeremy Macklin in the past, earlier to 0:03:46.040 --> 0:03:48.240 Jordan Matthews in the red zone. How big was it 0:03:48.320 --> 0:03:50.680 for the Eagles to have all three of their backs healthy, 0:03:50.840 --> 0:03:53.560 something that they've not had all through of the court season. 0:03:53.640 --> 0:03:57.000 Chris Polkas bottle the hamstring injuries. Darren Sprawls missed last 0:03:57.000 --> 0:04:00.000 week with a nice spring. They haven't had these three guys, 0:04:00.000 --> 0:04:02.880 guys who offer so much to his Eagles offense. You 0:04:02.880 --> 0:04:05.080 know McCoy can do it all. Sprowles, as you're a 0:04:05.120 --> 0:04:06.840 change of pace, guy and Polk as a guy who 0:04:06.920 --> 0:04:08.640 just powers the ball in between the tackles that he 0:04:08.720 --> 0:04:11.119 goes in there for the touchdown. And Polk also had 0:04:11.160 --> 0:04:14.720 that critical, critical firstdown late in the game to get 0:04:14.760 --> 0:04:17.200 the Eagles that help keep the drives going for this team. 0:04:17.760 --> 0:04:19.839 It's huge to have all three of these guys available. 0:04:19.839 --> 0:04:23.320 I mean for chipping for deuce. With all three guys available, 0:04:23.360 --> 0:04:26.360 now you have three different styles of runners and whatever 0:04:26.400 --> 0:04:29.119 the situation calls for, he can go to that back. 0:04:29.160 --> 0:04:30.880 You know, I love Shading McCourt and he's a great 0:04:30.920 --> 0:04:33.320 all purpose back. We've saw him carried a load for 0:04:33.360 --> 0:04:35.880 this franchise for the last three or four years. But 0:04:36.000 --> 0:04:37.960 the luxury of having a guy like Chris Polk and 0:04:38.120 --> 0:04:41.080 Dan Sproles in your repertoire, it allows you to have 0:04:41.200 --> 0:04:44.160 specialty plays for these guys and when you need tough yardage, 0:04:44.320 --> 0:04:46.360 not the shade he can't do it, but it's more 0:04:46.400 --> 0:04:49.400 suited for Chris Polpe to do it. A shoulder square 0:04:49.440 --> 0:04:53.080 to the line downhill runner, physical runner typically breaks the 0:04:53.120 --> 0:04:55.880 first or second tackle when he's carrying the football. That's 0:04:55.920 --> 0:04:57.719 what you need in your short yardage. You need someone 0:04:57.960 --> 0:05:00.520 that's a scatback. That can make someone missing open field. 0:05:00.520 --> 0:05:02.640 That's also great out of the backfield catching the ball 0:05:02.920 --> 0:05:05.800 that Darren spros for you. Shade of McCoy is more 0:05:05.839 --> 0:05:08.600 of your all around guy. It's just a different flavor 0:05:09.080 --> 0:05:11.760 that you can present to the defense at any given moment. 0:05:11.800 --> 0:05:14.839 It makes the offense that much more difficult to contain 0:05:14.880 --> 0:05:16.760 if you're a defense when you have all three of 0:05:16.760 --> 0:05:19.440 these guys at your disposal. Like you mentioned polkas a 0:05:19.480 --> 0:05:21.480 short yards guy, what do you think of Chips call 0:05:21.760 --> 0:05:24.159 to go for a fourth and one down there in 0:05:24.160 --> 0:05:26.040 the red zone. Eels were up three at the time, 0:05:26.160 --> 0:05:28.200 but they wanted to put the game away. It was 0:05:28.279 --> 0:05:29.919 huge and it's the one time this year that I 0:05:30.040 --> 0:05:32.520 wasn't scared. Hell yeah, it's the one time where I 0:05:32.520 --> 0:05:34.719 said go for it, Chip. Every other time this shop 0:05:34.839 --> 0:05:37.120 and like, well take two points, coach, we're on the road. 0:05:37.400 --> 0:05:39.880 This was a classic case where you go win the 0:05:39.880 --> 0:05:44.039 football game. You've been dominating this game, and to I guess, 0:05:44.040 --> 0:05:46.280 to your own detriment, you've allowed this team to hang 0:05:46.360 --> 0:05:49.280 around somewhat. This is your opportunity to stick the dagger 0:05:49.320 --> 0:05:51.039 in them and show them that you're the better team. 0:05:51.240 --> 0:05:53.440 I love the call going for it on fourth down. 0:05:53.680 --> 0:05:56.159 It was the right call. They got it barre less, 0:05:56.320 --> 0:05:59.480 but it was the right call. And it's how it's 0:05:59.520 --> 0:06:01.360 what you need to do when you're a good football team, 0:06:01.520 --> 0:06:05.479 when you're the better team, you need to basically inflick 0:06:06.320 --> 0:06:09.160 your personality, your toughness on the opposing team. And that's 0:06:09.160 --> 0:06:10.880 what the Eagles were able to do that dictate the 0:06:10.920 --> 0:06:13.880 game to the opposition. That certainly what the Eagles did. 0:06:13.920 --> 0:06:17.000 The one concern, we would say, turnovers, five of them 0:06:17.040 --> 0:06:19.160 on the day for the Eagles, and that's really what 0:06:19.360 --> 0:06:22.280 allow this Texans offense all their points coming off turnovers, 0:06:22.440 --> 0:06:24.919 allow them to stay in the football game. Eagles just 0:06:25.000 --> 0:06:28.080 clear that one aspect of it much better shape and 0:06:28.080 --> 0:06:30.919 to be enjoying this one a lot sooner instead of 0:06:30.920 --> 0:06:33.279 having to nervously sweat it out and worry about such 0:06:33.279 --> 0:06:35.920 fourth down calls. They're late in the game, So that'll 0:06:35.960 --> 0:06:37.440 be one thing to keep an eye on. Now, we 0:06:37.480 --> 0:06:39.400 want your reaction to the game. We're gonna have your 0:06:39.400 --> 0:06:41.200 phone calls later on in the show, but if you 0:06:41.240 --> 0:06:43.480 want to get on early, you want to let us 0:06:43.480 --> 0:06:45.200 know what you think of the Eagles win. To get 0:06:45.240 --> 0:06:47.960 to six and two, on the season, respond with your 0:06:47.960 --> 0:06:51.800 social posts using the hashtag Fly Eagles, Fly Fans, and Houston. 0:06:51.839 --> 0:06:53.719 We're seeing it throughout the course of the game, and 0:06:53.760 --> 0:06:56.479 I'm sure at homes and sports bars all over the 0:06:56.520 --> 0:06:59.240 Delaware Valley and we'll put the best post there on 0:06:59.360 --> 0:07:01.200 our tag feature. Let's make sure to get some of 0:07:01.240 --> 0:07:03.839 your posts on as we see what's happening. So we're 0:07:03.960 --> 0:07:05.919 here from head coach Chip Kelly. What are we going 0:07:06.000 --> 0:07:08.520 to hear from the injury standpoint? Obviously, everyone's waiting to 0:07:08.520 --> 0:07:11.520 see what the result of Nick Foles having the shoulder injury. 0:07:11.520 --> 0:07:13.240 He went in the locker room for X rays in 0:07:13.280 --> 0:07:15.440 the first half, he did not come back in the game, 0:07:15.480 --> 0:07:17.720 and then Demiko Ryans had to have the car come out. 0:07:17.880 --> 0:07:20.800 Very scary, very nearraking to see that for him at 0:07:20.800 --> 0:07:23.960 the ankle injury. So it'll be interesting to see. But overall, 0:07:24.000 --> 0:07:26.120 from the defensive standpoint, you knew the name of the 0:07:26.160 --> 0:07:29.360 game was to stop Aaron Foster. He had one hundred 0:07:29.440 --> 0:07:31.640 yards or more in six of the Texas eight contests 0:07:31.680 --> 0:07:34.560 this season. Walt didn't come anywhere closer that today with 0:07:34.680 --> 0:07:37.120 just fifty six yards on the ground and then took 0:07:37.200 --> 0:07:39.600 himself out of the game after. I don't know the 0:07:39.600 --> 0:07:42.760 exact extent of the injury he suffered, but tried to go, 0:07:42.880 --> 0:07:45.640 try to move laterally on the run, went down and 0:07:45.720 --> 0:07:47.800 you saw him throw his helm on the sideline and 0:07:47.880 --> 0:07:49.720 that was it for him on the day. Yeah, another 0:07:49.720 --> 0:07:52.080 week for his defense is facing a tough running back. 0:07:52.160 --> 0:07:54.800 Another week that they don't allow a running back to 0:07:54.800 --> 0:07:56.360 get over one hundred yards. I mean, I like the 0:07:56.400 --> 0:07:59.400 way this front seven has played for the most part 0:07:59.400 --> 0:08:02.320 of the season. They gang tackle, they rallied to the football. 0:08:02.560 --> 0:08:06.080 They play sound fundamental defense. No one tries to do 0:08:06.160 --> 0:08:09.000 too much. If you have a certain gap responsibility. Each 0:08:09.040 --> 0:08:13.040 guy seems to be in their gap, fulfilling their responsibility. 0:08:13.320 --> 0:08:15.480 And then most importantly, when they come up and wrap 0:08:15.560 --> 0:08:18.200 up to make tackles, Uh, you get you get a 0:08:18.440 --> 0:08:21.160 you know, several guys there to make plays, and you 0:08:21.200 --> 0:08:22.840 want to drop back and throw the ball against this 0:08:23.000 --> 0:08:25.720 front seven. Well, we missed a couple of sacks out 0:08:25.720 --> 0:08:30.520 there to day. I don't know how many they have credit. 0:08:30.600 --> 0:08:32.679 He collects a paycheck as well, so I guess he's 0:08:32.720 --> 0:08:34.559 not going to just allow you to sack in the times. 0:08:34.559 --> 0:08:36.760 But I thought he was under the rest an awful 0:08:36.800 --> 0:08:39.600 lot today. And it wasn't because Jo Davis was dialing 0:08:39.679 --> 0:08:42.320 up a bunch of blitzers. They were getting into Ryan 0:08:42.360 --> 0:08:45.240 Fitzpatrick while with their front for Trent Cole in the 0:08:45.280 --> 0:08:50.040 backfield several times. Connor Barwin, you know, Michael Kendridge back there. 0:08:51.200 --> 0:08:53.440 I like the way this front seven has played for 0:08:53.480 --> 0:08:55.600 the most part this season. They really have. They've gotten 0:08:55.640 --> 0:08:58.400 better each week. They seem to be at full strength now. 0:08:58.480 --> 0:09:02.000 Well with Damiko Ryans getting banged. Question, yes, we had 0:09:02.000 --> 0:09:05.080 to see where that leaves us, but uh, definitely impressed 0:09:05.840 --> 0:09:07.920 with the effort today from those guys, Kendrick to the 0:09:08.000 --> 0:09:10.000 very strong game was in the backfield on a number 0:09:10.080 --> 0:09:12.719 of occasions able to disrupt the game there. That was 0:09:12.840 --> 0:09:17.000 very fitting that on the Texans final pass play, Fitzpatricks 0:09:17.080 --> 0:09:19.280 dropped back the ball's bad the line of scrimmage and 0:09:19.320 --> 0:09:22.280 it's one Connor Barwin one of the seven four Texans 0:09:22.280 --> 0:09:25.040 going back for their homecoming in Houston, all seven of 0:09:25.040 --> 0:09:27.920 them contributing to the win. So especially Andrew Gardener, who 0:09:27.920 --> 0:09:30.200 came in for the injured Todd Harriman. You knew that 0:09:30.240 --> 0:09:33.400 he was trying to soldier on through that biceps injury 0:09:33.440 --> 0:09:35.800 had to come out in the second half. But you 0:09:35.840 --> 0:09:38.360 just talk about the effort the offensive line gave with 0:09:38.559 --> 0:09:41.880 both he Jason Kelsey, Jason Kelsey. You know he had 0:09:41.920 --> 0:09:45.520 some you know, some not as strong blocks. But speaking 0:09:45.600 --> 0:09:47.120 of the game, we're not gonna send it to energie 0:09:47.120 --> 0:09:50.400 Samon Houston. Let's hear from the head coach design this 0:09:51.280 --> 0:09:56.520 man caves or whatever it is? All right, again, it 0:09:56.520 --> 0:10:00.520 looked like he was pretty bad. Yeah, I just the replay. 0:10:00.559 --> 0:10:02.360 I haven't I don't have anything official on it, but 0:10:02.480 --> 0:10:06.400 it didn't look good. Same thing. He's in a sling 0:10:06.480 --> 0:10:08.760 right now. That's all I got until Um, I didn't 0:10:08.760 --> 0:10:09.880 get I didn't hear the rest of it. So I 0:10:10.360 --> 0:10:16.680 meet with them after this. So Tod hurt his ankle, so, um, 0:10:16.800 --> 0:10:20.079 he just said he felt like his I think it's 0:10:20.080 --> 0:10:21.480 the ankle on the same side as the elbow. So 0:10:21.520 --> 0:10:23.400 he was kind of a one arm, one leg man. 0:10:23.480 --> 0:10:25.720 So how were you able to get the run game 0:10:25.760 --> 0:10:28.760 going there in the second half? Especially? Um, you know, 0:10:28.920 --> 0:10:30.640 I thought we wore them down a little bit, you know, 0:10:30.679 --> 0:10:34.559 I think with our tempo, you know, we we one drive. 0:10:34.600 --> 0:10:36.960 We had four four runs for seventy in a touch. 0:10:37.000 --> 0:10:39.280 You know, I think you could see the effects of us, 0:10:39.320 --> 0:10:41.600 you know, kind of a cumuli effects of it. And um, 0:10:41.640 --> 0:10:43.839 I thought all three running backs were in really hard today. 0:10:43.880 --> 0:10:45.240 You know, there wasn't a lot of dancing going on 0:10:45.360 --> 0:10:46.959 right there. I thought they hit the whole. I thought 0:10:47.000 --> 0:10:48.600 we blocked it really well. I thought Brent Sellick did 0:10:48.640 --> 0:10:51.240 a really really good job of blocking um, you know, 0:10:51.320 --> 0:10:54.360 into what we ended up with offensive line wise, I 0:10:54.360 --> 0:10:55.840 thought those guys really hung in there and did a 0:10:55.840 --> 0:11:03.880 really good job kept beating the running backshish, No, I mean, anybody, 0:11:03.920 --> 0:11:06.520 it's four plays, it's four play, seventy yards were getting ten, 0:11:06.720 --> 0:11:08.800 ten to twelve yards of whack, So I mean that 0:11:08.920 --> 0:11:11.760 wasn't it wasn't designed that way, but we were. You know, 0:11:11.760 --> 0:11:13.719 we had a couple of really big runs and they 0:11:13.760 --> 0:11:17.840 just converted. So that marked a really good job. You know. 0:11:17.880 --> 0:11:19.480 The one interception I think it hit Helf in the 0:11:19.520 --> 0:11:21.400 hands was tipped um. And the other one I think 0:11:21.480 --> 0:11:24.040 Raley got spun around. But you know, besides that, I 0:11:24.040 --> 0:11:26.800 thought he had a really good command of what we're doing. Um, 0:11:26.880 --> 0:11:30.040 you know, since day one here, you know what type 0:11:30.040 --> 0:11:33.480 of professionally as he's in early he takes copious notes. 0:11:33.559 --> 0:11:35.520 I mean, he just he's a real professional. And I 0:11:35.520 --> 0:11:37.720 said since day one, you better have two quarterbacks in 0:11:37.720 --> 0:11:39.280 this league. And we were fortunate that, you know, when 0:11:39.360 --> 0:11:40.920 Nick did go down, that we could bring Mark in. 0:11:41.600 --> 0:11:43.240 And I don't think we missed a beat offensively, So 0:11:45.960 --> 0:11:49.000 I didn't even hear you were you Yeah, you know 0:11:49.040 --> 0:11:51.920 that's it we felt all long, and that was the reason. Um, 0:11:52.000 --> 0:11:54.360 you know, we resigned Jeremy. I think he's an explosive player. 0:11:54.360 --> 0:11:56.760 I was really excited, um before he got injured in 0:11:56.840 --> 0:11:58.040 terms of how he would fit in, what he would 0:11:58.040 --> 0:12:01.000 do on our offense. Uh um, and just was running 0:12:01.040 --> 0:12:02.839 big deep for us, and we had some really good 0:12:02.840 --> 0:12:04.920 shouts at him, um and then made a huge catch. 0:12:05.000 --> 0:12:06.679 You know. I think he's made some real good sideline 0:12:06.679 --> 0:12:08.840 catches and clutch catches for us, you know, during the 0:12:08.880 --> 0:12:10.160 course of the year. But I think that's what we're 0:12:10.200 --> 0:12:16.280 coming to expect Jeffrey to go. Yeah. I just thought 0:12:16.280 --> 0:12:17.600 it was close and we could get a first down, 0:12:17.679 --> 0:12:25.160 so yeah, he did quiet h. I don't think. I 0:12:25.200 --> 0:12:27.000 don't think we were trying to take one away more 0:12:27.040 --> 0:12:28.719 than the other. But you know, I think DeAndre is 0:12:28.760 --> 0:12:30.480 one of those real up and coming receivers in this league. 0:12:30.520 --> 0:12:32.120 We were really excited. I was, you know, he was 0:12:32.120 --> 0:12:33.600 a kid a year ago that you really get excited 0:12:33.600 --> 0:12:35.079 about when you saw him at the combine and coming 0:12:35.080 --> 0:12:36.880 out in the draft, and then it didn't surprise me. 0:12:36.880 --> 0:12:38.440 I think he's one of the real good young receivers 0:12:38.480 --> 0:12:46.679 in this league. So yeah, I thot Carry put away good. 0:12:46.720 --> 0:12:48.520 Carry had a really good jollie that one that one 0:12:48.559 --> 0:12:50.240 series coming down our sideline, we had two real big 0:12:50.240 --> 0:12:53.079 pass breakups. I got Carry carry put really well today. Um. 0:12:53.120 --> 0:12:54.760 And I couldn't tell you exactly on some of the 0:12:54.800 --> 0:12:56.920 things where DeAndre looked a couple of times we missed him. 0:12:56.920 --> 0:12:58.640 He was running shallow crossers and I don't know who 0:12:58.640 --> 0:13:00.000 had him, but he looked like he was running clean 0:13:00.000 --> 0:13:01.520 and so um, I'd have to look at the tape 0:13:01.520 --> 0:13:09.160 before I give you that answer. Mm hm. That was huge, 0:13:09.200 --> 0:13:11.080 you know. And we talked about you know when when 0:13:11.080 --> 0:13:12.520 when you're a good football team, you gotta be a 0:13:12.520 --> 0:13:14.160 good four minute football team. And I thought we did 0:13:14.160 --> 0:13:16.679 a great job of, um, not only taking a lot 0:13:16.679 --> 0:13:18.520 of time off the clock, but coming away with with 0:13:18.600 --> 0:13:20.280 a touchdown to make it a two score game. So 0:13:20.400 --> 0:13:22.560 you know, I really didn't want to settle for a 0:13:22.559 --> 0:13:24.360 field goal in that situation, you know, because then it 0:13:24.360 --> 0:13:26.360 would have just been six points, and obviously if you 0:13:26.360 --> 0:13:28.040 can get it extended to ten, it was big. But 0:13:28.080 --> 0:13:29.720 I thought that that whole drive just kind of told 0:13:29.760 --> 0:13:31.439 you a little bit about how we're coming together a 0:13:31.480 --> 0:13:33.640 little bit offensively, and I think it bodes well for 0:13:33.679 --> 0:13:42.880 the future. Yeah, I think the first play card, I think, yeah, 0:13:42.920 --> 0:13:44.560 the first play card I called you banged to post. 0:13:44.600 --> 0:13:47.720 So no, I mean that's no. It just depends on 0:13:47.760 --> 0:13:49.440 who it is, you know. I mean I could say yes, 0:13:49.880 --> 0:13:59.280 but it depends on who. All Right, So we had 0:13:59.280 --> 0:14:02.160 a little technicaliculties there, but you got pretty much the 0:14:02.200 --> 0:14:05.080 gist of what Chip Kelly had to say, enjoying the win, 0:14:05.440 --> 0:14:07.360 hard fought win over the Houston Texans to get the 0:14:07.360 --> 0:14:10.520 Eagles back on track. So we don't have much more 0:14:10.559 --> 0:14:14.079 details on the injuries to Demika Rimes, Nick Foles, well, 0:14:14.120 --> 0:14:17.040 Todd Harriman's who did say lease was an ankle injury, 0:14:17.160 --> 0:14:19.960 wasn't anything to do with the bice injury there. So 0:14:19.960 --> 0:14:21.560 so we're doing now We're gonna take a quick break 0:14:21.640 --> 0:14:24.400 commercial break here on the postgame show presented by Rico. 0:14:24.440 --> 0:14:27.120 We're gonna hear from quarterdeck, Mark Sanchez, wide receiver, Jerry 0:14:27.160 --> 0:14:29.520 MC We'll take your phone calls all in just a 0:14:29.520 --> 0:14:37.360 little bit. Scepta is the way to get to game. 0:14:37.560 --> 0:14:39.560 I love taking the subway down there because I feel 0:14:39.600 --> 0:14:41.960 like i'm you know, with all fans. Everybody's got their 0:14:42.000 --> 0:14:44.360 gear on. People are chanting and cheering on the train 0:14:44.400 --> 0:14:46.360 before you even get to the station. There's a sense 0:14:46.400 --> 0:14:49.360 of camaraderie because Philly loves their sports teams. It's really fun. 0:14:49.360 --> 0:15:23.360 It's Philadelphia, Section five, twelve, Row six, seats seven through ten. 0:15:23.600 --> 0:15:26.040 Those are our seats at this one time. We can't 0:15:26.080 --> 0:15:28.680 be there. Please treat them right to get there earliest 0:15:28.760 --> 0:15:33.600 daylight and yellow whole dress, warm gloves, hats, warm boots. 0:15:33.960 --> 0:15:36.960 Eric sits in the middle. Uncle Paul sits on the aisle, 0:15:37.000 --> 0:15:38.640 and if you want to sit in my seat.

When I was a little kid, 0:15:51.440 --> 0:15:53.400 I thought writing sept it was just the coolest thing. 0:15:53.560 --> 0:15:56.640 I thought, I'm on this big piece of metal blazing 0:15:56.680 --> 0:16:00.360 down these tracks. There's people ringing bells of of me, 0:16:00.480 --> 0:16:04.680 there's honking going on, there's trees flying by. It's fantastic. 0:16:10.480 --> 0:16:13.120 Welcome back to the postgame Show presented by Rico. We're 0:16:13.160 --> 0:16:15.560 hoping to hear from wide receiver Jerry Macklin and just 0:16:15.680 --> 0:16:18.720 a little bit. But like, what I love about Macklin's 0:16:18.720 --> 0:16:21.040 game is, yes, he could stress the field vertically, he 0:16:21.040 --> 0:16:23.720 had the two cashes sweep down the field, but he 0:16:23.760 --> 0:16:26.000 can also get the ball the job done in red 0:16:26.080 --> 0:16:29.520 zone situation. Just an all around tremendous receiver. Yeah, you 0:16:29.600 --> 0:16:31.520 heard Chip mentioned you know the thing he loved about 0:16:31.600 --> 0:16:33.720 him last year before he got injured. You can you 0:16:33.800 --> 0:16:36.520 noticed it in the spring practices as well as training camp. 0:16:36.560 --> 0:16:39.800 They were moving him around everywhere, using him in different ways, 0:16:40.160 --> 0:16:43.120 and they were excited about getting him back this year 0:16:43.720 --> 0:16:46.080 fully healthy, and he's showing that he's fully healthy. He's 0:16:46.120 --> 0:16:48.560 capable of line up inside the slot if you need him. 0:16:48.600 --> 0:16:51.080 He's capable of line up on the outside. More importantly, 0:16:51.080 --> 0:16:53.880 he's capable of running just about every route there is 0:16:54.160 --> 0:16:56.480 on the passing route tree. So when you have a 0:16:56.520 --> 0:16:59.920 receiver who has the complete package. It just gives you 0:17:00.560 --> 0:17:03.240 a various ways to be able to use him, and 0:17:03.360 --> 0:17:05.800 he the one thing I like about Jerry Macklin. He 0:17:05.840 --> 0:17:08.359 has great body control. He knows how to go down 0:17:08.400 --> 0:17:10.959 to the ground if need be get the ball. He 0:17:11.000 --> 0:17:13.560 always seems to keep his feet in bounds if he 0:17:13.600 --> 0:17:15.520 needs too. There was a past earlier in the game 0:17:15.560 --> 0:17:18.480 where first he caught on the sideline and there's a 0:17:18.560 --> 0:17:20.760 quick toe tap to get both of his feet down, 0:17:20.840 --> 0:17:22.800 So you know he's a smart player. He's aware of 0:17:22.800 --> 0:17:25.440 where he's at at all times on the field. I mean, 0:17:25.440 --> 0:17:27.399 he's just been a true He's been truly a pleasure 0:17:27.440 --> 0:17:29.840 to watch in him all year. It's it's been what 0:17:29.960 --> 0:17:32.320 since twenty ten when Macklin got close to a thousand 0:17:32.359 --> 0:17:35.000 yards and had ten touchdowns, since we've been able to 0:17:35.119 --> 0:17:39.600 enjoy the full potential of Jeremy Macklin. He's determined this 0:17:39.680 --> 0:17:42.719 year to prove that he can be your goal to receiver. 0:17:42.840 --> 0:17:46.479 You can't rely on him and clutch situations, key moments 0:17:46.480 --> 0:17:48.640 in the game and come up with big catches. And 0:17:49.119 --> 0:17:51.440 I'm just enjoying. I'm loving what I'm seeing. I mean, 0:17:51.600 --> 0:17:54.760 when you talk about losing certain players and how you're 0:17:54.800 --> 0:17:56.639 going to replace him, Well, you get a player of 0:17:56.720 --> 0:17:59.520 playing like this, we tend to forget who was here before. 0:17:59.640 --> 0:18:02.720 So you know, number eighteen, he just needs to keep 0:18:02.720 --> 0:18:05.960 doing what he's doing, stand focused, stand humbled, and now 0:18:06.240 --> 0:18:08.280 catching the ball when it when it's throwing his way. 0:18:08.359 --> 0:18:11.280 Seven targets today, he catches six of them. And that's 0:18:11.280 --> 0:18:13.720 what I like. Anything within his catch radius, that's the 0:18:13.760 --> 0:18:16.480 new phrase in the NFL nowadays. Anything within his catch 0:18:16.600 --> 0:18:19.080 radius he comes up with the ball. You rarely see 0:18:19.119 --> 0:18:21.880 a job a drop from Jeremy Macklin. He's on pace 0:18:22.320 --> 0:18:25.520 to either get closer or break a number of the 0:18:25.600 --> 0:18:28.480 Eagles season single season records. I mean you're going across 0:18:28.480 --> 0:18:31.680 the board from catches to yards to touchdowns. After a 0:18:31.760 --> 0:18:34.080 performance today and the performance last week where he had 0:18:34.119 --> 0:18:36.919 twelve catches, a career high and receiving yards and another 0:18:37.000 --> 0:18:41.680 long touchdown, he's still remaining on page those records. Now. 0:18:41.720 --> 0:18:44.080 He was the winner of the Ed Block Kurge Award. 0:18:44.440 --> 0:18:46.120 Now you've been in the Eagles locker room, you voted 0:18:46.160 --> 0:18:48.280 on these awards in the past, Like, what does that 0:18:48.359 --> 0:18:51.840 mean to vote a guy to that honor? Oh, we're 0:18:51.840 --> 0:18:54.440 gonna say it's Mark Sanchez now at the Potement Energy 0:18:54.480 --> 0:18:59.119 Stame in Houston. You gotta switch your focus from you know, uh, 0:18:59.359 --> 0:19:01.960 lamenting over a guy that's hurt, and then you gotta 0:19:02.000 --> 0:19:04.080 get your focus on the game. And I think, uh, 0:19:04.359 --> 0:19:07.160 that's coaches policy is the next man up. Something happens, 0:19:07.200 --> 0:19:08.600 you gotta be ready to go. And I think we 0:19:08.600 --> 0:19:16.560 were in a game like, uh, you know, you just 0:19:16.560 --> 0:19:20.880 gotta stay ready. I think, um, coach Musgrave, uh, coach out. 0:19:21.359 --> 0:19:23.199 All of our offensive coaches do a great job of 0:19:23.560 --> 0:19:26.880 making sure that the starters get reps the second team 0:19:26.880 --> 0:19:29.680
