Thanks for joining us on the postgame show, 0:00:21.079 --> 0:00:24.040 Amy Campbell, fran Duffie, Ike Reece joining me as always 0:00:24.200 --> 0:00:26.319 to break it down. Guys, Let's just start with some 0:00:26.440 --> 0:00:29.560 initial thoughts. This was kind of hard to watch for me. 0:00:29.880 --> 0:00:32.760 What was your initial thoughts? I thought the game, you know, 0:00:32.880 --> 0:00:35.120 played out exactly the way I figured it would. I 0:00:35.159 --> 0:00:38.240 knew this would be an ugly defensive type of performance. 0:00:38.360 --> 0:00:41.920 Either one of these offenses are very explosive at this point. Eagles, 0:00:42.000 --> 0:00:44.320 due to their lack of personnel on the offensive side 0:00:44.360 --> 0:00:47.040 of the ball, not having al Sean Jeffrey and Jordan 0:00:47.120 --> 0:00:49.520 Howard certainly was going to limit some of the things 0:00:49.520 --> 0:00:52.239 they could do offensively in New England all year long 0:00:52.320 --> 0:00:55.080 if you follow them. If they don't typically get turnovers 0:00:55.080 --> 0:00:58.880 in short fields, their offense isn't as explosive either. So 0:00:59.120 --> 0:01:01.160 the Eagles, with the one turn over the day able 0:01:01.200 --> 0:01:03.520 to hold them to three. Other than that you saw, 0:01:03.800 --> 0:01:06.240 other than that first drive out of the locker room 0:01:06.280 --> 0:01:09.560 at halftime, New England really struggled to move the ball today. 0:01:09.680 --> 0:01:11.880 I thought it would come down to a single possession 0:01:11.880 --> 0:01:14.319 in the fourth quarter and it was gonna be can 0:01:14.440 --> 0:01:17.399 you make plays in crunch time against one of the 0:01:17.440 --> 0:01:19.399 best defenses in the league. And you got to give 0:01:19.480 --> 0:01:21.640 New England a lot of credit. Man, they didn't give 0:01:21.720 --> 0:01:24.080 up the plays when it was time too. I love 0:01:24.160 --> 0:01:27.320 the way our defense kept us in the game throughout 0:01:27.360 --> 0:01:31.479 the day, really harassing Tom Brady, keeping everything in front 0:01:31.480 --> 0:01:34.440 of them, really giving this team a chance to stay 0:01:34.440 --> 0:01:37.200 in this game while the offense struggled to find their footing. 0:01:37.440 --> 0:01:41.080 I thought the defense put they matched New England's defensive performance. 0:01:41.120 --> 0:01:43.760 In my opinion, we just couldn't pull it out in 0:01:43.840 --> 0:01:46.720 the end. I think when you talk about complimentary football, 0:01:46.720 --> 0:01:48.960 this game was a great example of that, because you know, 0:01:49.000 --> 0:01:51.160 when the offense doesn't have its best day, you're missing 0:01:51.240 --> 0:01:54.760 Jordan Howard, you're missing Alshon Jeffrey obviously to shun Jackson again. 0:01:54.800 --> 0:01:56.480 But I think when you look at you know the 0:01:56.520 --> 0:01:59.320 offense coming to this game, they're under man Defensively, they 0:01:59.360 --> 0:02:01.560 came to play and what they did against Tom Brady 0:02:01.560 --> 0:02:03.520 in this offense, I think it is very commendable. They 0:02:03.560 --> 0:02:05.680 did a great job of highlighting that throughout the course 0:02:05.680 --> 0:02:07.680 of the broadcast though so for those at home they 0:02:07.680 --> 0:02:09.320 were watching the game, they got to kind of see that. 0:02:09.400 --> 0:02:12.240 But defensively, you got to give him a lot of credit. Yeah, 0:02:12.360 --> 0:02:14.800 defense doing their job, giving their offense a chance to 0:02:14.800 --> 0:02:16.720 win the game at the end going down the field. 0:02:16.720 --> 0:02:19.440 Can't ask for too much more than that from the 0:02:19.440 --> 0:02:22.120 Eagles defense against Tom Brady. Let's head back over to 0:02:22.120 --> 0:02:25.400 Lincoln Financial Field. Dave Spadaro standing by, Dave, you got 0:02:25.440 --> 0:02:29.040 to see this one up close, catch the vibes of everything. 0:02:29.320 --> 0:02:31.080 Let's give us some of your initial thoughts on this 0:02:31.160 --> 0:02:33.760 Eagles loss. Yeah. I really like the way the Eagles 0:02:33.760 --> 0:02:36.720 came out offensively. They mixed it up. The ninety five 0:02:36.800 --> 0:02:40.639 yard drive was absolute perfection. Sixteen plays, nine and a 0:02:40.680 --> 0:02:43.200 half minutes. And then Lane Johnson went out of the 0:02:43.240 --> 0:02:49.120 game and the offense went nothing, no rhyme, no rhythm. 0:02:49.400 --> 0:02:52.399 Carson Wentz didn't play a good football game, didn't get 0:02:52.440 --> 0:02:56.919 help around him. The running game was not utilized. Miles 0:02:57.000 --> 0:03:00.240 Sanders in the passing game. At times I saw the 0:03:00.240 --> 0:03:03.200 Patriots really clamped down on Miles, not allow him to 0:03:03.200 --> 0:03:05.320 get out of the backfield, and then at other times 0:03:05.320 --> 0:03:08.040 when he was a bit of a leak, the ball 0:03:08.080 --> 0:03:11.960 went in another direction. But certainly a disappointing performance from 0:03:11.960 --> 0:03:14.560 an offense that I thought had some opportunities to put 0:03:14.560 --> 0:03:17.239 some points on the board. And again a very disappointing 0:03:17.919 --> 0:03:21.079 last few minutes here. The Eagles had what two hundred 0:03:21.120 --> 0:03:24.040 and forty plus yards of offense, and if you take 0:03:24.040 --> 0:03:26.120 away the ninety five yard drive and the two drives 0:03:26.120 --> 0:03:29.040 here at the end, what they have sixty seventy yards 0:03:29.040 --> 0:03:31.920 of offense. I mean, it was just a very very 0:03:31.960 --> 0:03:35.760 poor performance. Carson holding the ball too long, fumbling it, 0:03:35.960 --> 0:03:38.520 missing some wide receivers again, not getting the help from 0:03:38.560 --> 0:03:41.240 receivers as well. But the Eagles, look, you gotta get 0:03:41.320 --> 0:03:43.160 used to this. Al Sean Jeffrey, we don't know when 0:03:43.200 --> 0:03:45.880 he's coming back. Jordan Howard, we don't know when he's 0:03:45.920 --> 0:03:48.760 coming back. You've got to find a way to manufacture points, 0:03:49.160 --> 0:03:53.440 create good matchups, and the Eagles didn't do that today. Yeah, Dave, 0:03:53.920 --> 0:03:56.280 you mentioned Carson and watching him in the pocket, I 0:03:56.320 --> 0:03:59.040 thought there was time for him to get rid of 0:03:59.040 --> 0:04:01.760 the football. Looked to me like he's waiting for guys 0:04:01.760 --> 0:04:04.880 to get open, really pressing to try to make something happen. 0:04:05.000 --> 0:04:07.360 Kind of put the team behind the sticks a little 0:04:07.400 --> 0:04:09.280 bit early in the game. What'd you see from the 0:04:09.320 --> 0:04:13.880 ground level as far as open receivers are, having guys 0:04:14.200 --> 0:04:16.600 available to him to be able to get the ball too. Yeah, 0:04:16.640 --> 0:04:19.520 I mean it's it's interesting, you know. I remember the 0:04:19.640 --> 0:04:22.960 Carson Wentz as a rookie those first three games and 0:04:23.000 --> 0:04:25.360 then two thousand and seven getting the ball out quick, quick, quick, 0:04:25.440 --> 0:04:28.320 quick quick. So maybe he really trusted his receivers then 0:04:28.720 --> 0:04:31.520 for whatever reason, he's waiting until players are open for 0:04:31.560 --> 0:04:34.040 the most part before he's throwing the ball. Now, certainly 0:04:34.080 --> 0:04:36.560 he's got a comfort level with Zach Ertz. Dallas Goddard 0:04:36.560 --> 0:04:39.440 had three drops I think today, but on the outside. 0:04:40.040 --> 0:04:43.440 Jordan Matthews a non factor today. Nelson Agilore, you know, 0:04:43.440 --> 0:04:45.000 I had a couple of catches here and there, but 0:04:45.080 --> 0:04:48.599 nothing really, Mac Collins nothing. J j Arthega Whiteside made 0:04:48.600 --> 0:04:50.640 the play on the scrambled drill. That was nice to see, 0:04:50.680 --> 0:04:53.560 But I think you got to get back to throwing 0:04:53.560 --> 0:04:57.680 it on you when you anticipate a receiver getting open, 0:04:57.760 --> 0:04:59.840 not waiting for him to get open and then throwing it. 0:05:00.000 --> 0:05:02.760 It seems like he's laid on some balls. And yeah, 0:05:02.760 --> 0:05:04.680 I think he's holding the football at times too long. 0:05:04.720 --> 0:05:07.400 I just I remember seeing Carson get the ball out 0:05:07.480 --> 0:05:09.839 quicker quicker, quicker quicker. And I know when the TV 0:05:09.920 --> 0:05:12.640 broadcast they talked a little bit about that. His ability 0:05:12.720 --> 0:05:16.280 to extend plays is certainly a gift, but you also 0:05:16.320 --> 0:05:18.520 have to realize when it's not there and get the 0:05:18.600 --> 0:05:21.840 football out, Dave. I want to bring it over to 0:05:21.920 --> 0:05:24.600 the defensive side because obviously the defense. You know, what 0:05:24.920 --> 0:05:26.359 else can you say about what they are able to 0:05:26.360 --> 0:05:28.880 do against Tom Brady and Julian Edelman and the rest 0:05:28.880 --> 0:05:31.200 of that supporting cast staff from New England. What was 0:05:31.240 --> 0:05:33.760 the energy like all on the sideline for that group 0:05:33.920 --> 0:05:36.720 on the defensive side of the football, because certainly made 0:05:36.760 --> 0:05:39.320 their share plays today, Yeah they did, Fran And I mean, 0:05:39.360 --> 0:05:41.440 that's wonderful, But did you really expect New England to 0:05:41.480 --> 0:05:43.000 come in here and light it up with an offense 0:05:43.080 --> 0:05:45.680 that is very middle of the road in the NFL, 0:05:45.760 --> 0:05:47.560 with a running game that I gotta tell you that 0:05:47.560 --> 0:05:49.280 I think the Patriots put up something like eighty one 0:05:49.360 --> 0:05:51.800 yards on the ground, and they were effective in the 0:05:51.839 --> 0:05:55.000 second half running the football. And so the adjustments that 0:05:55.080 --> 0:05:57.839 they made once they saw the Eagles bracketing Julian Edelman 0:05:58.240 --> 0:06:00.520 like a great coaching staff, they made it adjustments and 0:06:00.560 --> 0:06:03.400 they hurt the Eagles on the ground. They heard him 0:06:03.480 --> 0:06:06.240 with some you know, quick releases from Tom Brady getting 0:06:06.240 --> 0:06:10.080 the football up. Yeah, the defense did a nice job today. However, 0:06:10.560 --> 0:06:13.400 when they have the chance in the fourth quarter and 0:06:13.520 --> 0:06:16.240 New England's down at their own whatever it was, three 0:06:16.320 --> 0:06:20.320 yard line, get off the field, win for the offense, 0:06:20.400 --> 0:06:22.919 Eagles didn't do it. There. Take real quick before we 0:06:23.000 --> 0:06:25.479 let you go. We heard about the wind all throughout 0:06:25.480 --> 0:06:28.000 the game today, the broadcast crew talking about it a lot. 0:06:28.080 --> 0:06:31.320 You're there, How is it? Yeah, I mean it's it's 0:06:31.360 --> 0:06:33.080 a bit of wind. It certainly didn't seem to affect 0:06:33.080 --> 0:06:36.039 the kicking game. The field goals were true, the extra 0:06:36.080 --> 0:06:38.719 points were good. There were a couple of times I 0:06:38.720 --> 0:06:42.040 thought the ball may have sailed on Carson and I 0:06:42.080 --> 0:06:46.000 think Boston Scott, I gotta say this terrible judgment. Terrible judgment. 0:06:46.040 --> 0:06:48.279 A couple of times here on punt returns late in 0:06:48.279 --> 0:06:50.200 the game, you don't catch the ball at the five 0:06:50.279 --> 0:06:52.520 yard line. Now, maybe he's under instruction to do that, 0:06:52.600 --> 0:06:54.919 but you've got to let the ball go into the 0:06:54.960 --> 0:06:56.520 end zone and give your offense a chance to have 0:06:56.560 --> 0:06:59.159 some breathing room. It didn't do that, So maybe the 0:06:59.200 --> 0:07:00.920 wind had a fact was a factor in that, but 0:07:01.080 --> 0:07:03.960 it wasn't really amy as big a deal, certainly as 0:07:04.000 --> 0:07:06.440 it wasn't Buffalo a few weeks ago. All Right, Dave, 0:07:06.520 --> 0:07:08.600 as always, thanks so much for your insight. We'll let 0:07:08.600 --> 0:07:12.160 you get to the locker room. Thank you. All right, 0:07:12.240 --> 0:07:14.520 So we heard about that wind and awful lot on 0:07:14.520 --> 0:07:16.920 the broadcast. So interesting to hear Dave say, hey, you know, 0:07:17.320 --> 0:07:19.560 really didn't make too much of a difference here. Up, Fran, 0:07:19.640 --> 0:07:21.000 let's get to you. You're kind of some of your 0:07:21.040 --> 0:07:23.920 initial thoughts here, especially after hearing from Dave there on 0:07:23.920 --> 0:07:26.000 the sideline. What you know what he observed? Yeah, I 0:07:26.000 --> 0:07:29.680 mean I personally was pretty impressed with the defense. Yeah, Dave, 0:07:29.760 --> 0:07:31.960 I know, wasn't that impressed to me. I think he's 0:07:31.960 --> 0:07:35.040 a tough one, Yeah, he is, said, we know that 0:07:35.080 --> 0:07:37.560 about that balance each other out here in this dysfunctional 0:07:37.600 --> 0:07:39.160 family about it. I think when you look at what 0:07:39.160 --> 0:07:40.680 the defense is able to do, I mean, I know 0:07:40.720 --> 0:07:43.040 that the numbers haven't been great with Tom Brady and 0:07:43.080 --> 0:07:45.000 this passing game over the course of this game, and 0:07:45.040 --> 0:07:47.360 there were some occurrences we sat late in the game, 0:07:47.360 --> 0:07:49.480 we were sitting here in the studio. Yeah, we wanted 0:07:49.520 --> 0:07:51.080 to the defense be able to get off the field 0:07:51.080 --> 0:07:52.960 and on that drive right late and say like, all right, 0:07:52.960 --> 0:07:54.920 you got them, pin back, get off the field quickly, 0:07:54.920 --> 0:07:57.240 get the offense the ball around midfield. But if you 0:07:57.280 --> 0:07:59.559 look over the course of this game, the field position 0:07:59.600 --> 0:08:01.960 for New England started, they had like three or four drives. 0:08:02.000 --> 0:08:04.640 It started at right around midfield, and they were able 0:08:04.640 --> 0:08:06.680 to get stops when they needed to if not holding 0:08:06.760 --> 0:08:08.720 the three. How many times do we see them holding 0:08:08.760 --> 0:08:10.320 the three in the first half alone? I mean that 0:08:10.520 --> 0:08:13.120 to me, those are things that keep you in the game. 0:08:13.120 --> 0:08:15.400 The Eagles are not able to come back and potentially 0:08:15.440 --> 0:08:17.680 tie this game up if the defense doesn't do that 0:08:17.720 --> 0:08:19.640 over the course of three and a half quarters. So 0:08:19.720 --> 0:08:21.640 to me, I think defensively, I think there was a 0:08:21.680 --> 0:08:24.040 lot to take away from a positive standpoint in this matchup. Yeah, 0:08:24.040 --> 0:08:25.480 I think so as well, and especially when you look 0:08:25.480 --> 0:08:27.160 at the red zone numbers for the Patriots, they were 0:08:27.200 --> 0:08:29.040 one of three in the red zone thirty three percent. 0:08:29.080 --> 0:08:31.120 That's not great. You know that they settled for field 0:08:31.160 --> 0:08:33.360 goals several times, and it was really the Eagles defense. 0:08:33.400 --> 0:08:35.360 I mean there was that one drive where they were 0:08:35.360 --> 0:08:37.840 on the Eagles four yard line, first in goal, and 0:08:37.880 --> 0:08:40.520 the Eagles were able to stop them on defense and 0:08:40.640 --> 0:08:42.320 have them settle for a field goal. So I think 0:08:42.480 --> 0:08:44.360 there's definitely some things to build on. A couple of 0:08:44.440 --> 0:08:46.280 nice pass breakups there as well. There's going to be 0:08:46.360 --> 0:08:48.319 some good film to dig into. I'm not as well. 0:08:48.640 --> 0:08:51.400 Let's get into your takeaways. Well, piggyback off of that 0:08:51.480 --> 0:08:53.920 all right. Again, I don't know what Spuds is talking about, 0:08:54.480 --> 0:08:57.400 darl I mean he has a former defensive player. I 0:08:57.440 --> 0:09:01.720 mean that was an Ayes. That was an Aman. Yeah, 0:09:01.720 --> 0:09:03.520 I mean that's an A performance in my opinion. The 0:09:03.520 --> 0:09:06.240 only reason there's not an A plus performance. They had 0:09:06.240 --> 0:09:08.960 their hands on some balls that could have been turnovers, 0:09:09.320 --> 0:09:11.600 could have possibly given you some good field position or 0:09:11.640 --> 0:09:13.600 got the Patriots off the field where you didn't get 0:09:13.600 --> 0:09:17.240 any points. You certainly want that as a defensive player. 0:09:17.240 --> 0:09:19.400 But other than that, man, how many times did they 0:09:19.400 --> 0:09:22.480 come up big on third down, particularly in the fourth quarter, 0:09:22.520 --> 0:09:26.520 where the Patriots are known for putting away football teams 0:09:26.840 --> 0:09:29.760 in the fourth quarter. That's what they do in clutch time. 0:09:30.200 --> 0:09:33.120 They salt away the clock, not giving you an opportunity 0:09:33.160 --> 0:09:35.960 to steal away of victory. And this defense in the 0:09:36.000 --> 0:09:39.280 fourth quarter time and time again gave this offense to 0:09:39.320 --> 0:09:42.360 football with an opportunity to go out, go down and 0:09:42.480 --> 0:09:45.280 try to tie this ball game up, including their final 0:09:45.400 --> 0:09:47.560 drive where they were able to hold the Patriots. So 0:09:47.600 --> 0:09:49.640 I love what the Eagles defense was able to do. 0:09:49.840 --> 0:09:52.959 You can't take away everything when you're trying to stop 0:09:53.000 --> 0:09:55.480 an offense. They took away to run in the first half. 0:09:55.760 --> 0:09:58.720 Tom Brady was dinking and duncan. They made some adjustments. 0:09:58.840 --> 0:10:00.319 They ran the ball a little bit more in the 0:10:00.720 --> 0:10:04.160 second half after that first drive. But man, I don't 0:10:04.160 --> 0:10:05.800 don't think I could have asked for anything more from 0:10:05.800 --> 0:10:08.240 this defense. I mean, last the last night Eagles took 0:10:08.240 --> 0:10:10.240 the field against Chicago, we talked about how it was 0:10:10.280 --> 0:10:12.920 such a great game plan to say, you go into 0:10:12.960 --> 0:10:15.760 that matchup worried about Khalil Mack and Leonard Floyd and 0:10:15.800 --> 0:10:17.920 that Chicago pass rush look at the game plan. The 0:10:17.960 --> 0:10:22.960 Eagles busted offensively screen game play action, moving the pocket. 0:10:23.080 --> 0:10:24.720 How often did we see the Patriots do that today? 0:10:24.720 --> 0:10:27.640 Because they were terrified of that defensive front. They were 0:10:27.720 --> 0:10:30.600 terrified of Fletcher Cox and Brandon Graham and Derk Barnett. 0:10:30.720 --> 0:10:32.400 Tony Romo talked about it a lot on the on 0:10:32.440 --> 0:10:35.160 the broadcast about how you know you could tell by 0:10:35.160 --> 0:10:37.720 the way that they're playing they're not they're worried about 0:10:37.720 --> 0:10:39.920 those matchups up front, and they were still able to 0:10:39.960 --> 0:10:41.840 get home and get a number of big hits on 0:10:41.880 --> 0:10:44.240 Tom Brady earlier on that first half. He was anty 0:10:44.320 --> 0:10:46.240 he wanted to get that ball out as fast as possible. 0:10:46.320 --> 0:10:48.840 He was done taking hits from Barnett and and the 0:10:48.840 --> 0:10:50.720 rest of that defensive line well, and I thought we 0:10:50.720 --> 0:10:52.079 got to give a lot of credit to the second 0:10:52.080 --> 0:10:53.880 area as well. We're holding up the way that they 0:10:53.920 --> 0:10:56.120 did in order to give that defensive want a chance 0:10:56.120 --> 0:10:58.120 to get home. And this was something I think that 0:10:58.160 --> 0:11:00.960 has kind of been a weakness of this defense, even 0:11:01.000 --> 0:11:03.520 going back to the Super Bowl season, that the secondary 0:11:03.600 --> 0:11:05.280 was giving up a lot of big place. Today that 0:11:05.360 --> 0:11:07.439 was not what we saw. No points scored in the 0:11:07.440 --> 0:11:10.400 fourth quarter by either team, but the secondary really holding 0:11:10.440 --> 0:11:12.480 up as well. And you mentioned the third down numbers. 0:11:12.480 --> 0:11:16.760 I thought this was kind of interesting. Patriots five of sixteen, 0:11:16.840 --> 0:11:18.720 so that's thirty one percent, which is not great, but 0:11:18.760 --> 0:11:21.960 that they had sixty and thirty chances in this one 0:11:22.160 --> 0:11:24.200 and the defense still came up for them. Place. Yeah, 0:11:24.200 --> 0:11:26.560 the factor Cherry would get the Patriots toit third down 0:11:26.559 --> 0:11:29.199 and able to get off the field. That you got 0:11:29.200 --> 0:11:31.400 to tip your cap there. I mean, they scored one 0:11:31.480 --> 0:11:33.200 touchdown today and that was on a sort of a 0:11:33.240 --> 0:11:36.480 trick play. So the Patriots had to dig, they had 0:11:36.480 --> 0:11:39.360 to dig deep into their playbook to move the football 0:11:39.360 --> 0:11:43.640 against against this team, and they were certainly an advantageous 0:11:43.679 --> 0:11:46.640 situations when you talk about field position pretty much the 0:11:46.840 --> 0:11:49.640 entire game. They started a lot of air drives, you know, 0:11:49.679 --> 0:11:52.840 would only sixty sixty five yards left the goal, whereas 0:11:52.840 --> 0:11:55.680 the Eagles, I don't think they started a drive outside 0:11:55.679 --> 0:11:58.160 of the twenty eight yard line. Certainly was much more 0:11:58.200 --> 0:12:01.640 difficult on their offense to the football. The Eagles defense 0:12:01.720 --> 0:12:04.680 put in some difficult situations at times, able to hold 0:12:04.679 --> 0:12:07.800 this Patriots offense to just field goals. I like what 0:12:07.840 --> 0:12:09.480 the defense was able to do what they're gonna need 0:12:09.480 --> 0:12:12.040 to continue to do that because we don't know when 0:12:12.040 --> 0:12:15.160 these players will be back, and this offense may struggle 0:12:15.200 --> 0:12:17.880 to put up points throughout at least the next few 0:12:17.880 --> 0:12:20.280 weeks of the season. Listen to Tom Brady's stat line. 0:12:20.320 --> 0:12:23.520 He completed fifty five percent of his passes two hundred 0:12:23.520 --> 0:12:27.319 and sixteen yards, zero touchdowns, a rating of sixty seven 0:12:27.360 --> 0:12:30.120 point three. So he threw forty seven passes. My guess 0:12:30.240 --> 0:12:32.600 is like thirty of them were screens. Yeah, I mean 0:12:32.640 --> 0:12:36.040 that speaks to what their game plan was coming into 0:12:36.040 --> 0:12:38.360 the week, because if you're if you're worried about a 0:12:38.360 --> 0:12:40.840 pass rush, you're trying to suck them up and trying 0:12:40.840 --> 0:12:43.360 to slow them down with the screen game. And when 0:12:43.360 --> 0:12:45.840 you throw play action into there, all those screens were 0:12:45.840 --> 0:12:48.480 off of play actions, You're giving that defensive line all 0:12:48.559 --> 0:12:50.760 kinds of things to think about making sure that they 0:12:50.800 --> 0:12:53.000 slow up on their way to the quarterback. They did 0:12:53.040 --> 0:12:55.480 not want Tom Brady to have to drop back five 0:12:55.480 --> 0:12:58.720 step drop, seven step drop clean from under center against 0:12:58.720 --> 0:13:01.160 this defensive line. And to your point, Amy, I'm in 0:13:01.200 --> 0:13:03.439 the coverage held up really really well. Not only do 0:13:03.559 --> 0:13:05.360 we see some pass breakups down the field. But we 0:13:05.400 --> 0:13:07.959 also saw a number of checkdowns from Tom Brady when 0:13:07.960 --> 0:13:09.880 they would not have wanted it. They saw, we saw 0:13:09.880 --> 0:13:11.439 some throwaways. We had to eat the throw when he 0:13:11.480 --> 0:13:13.120 would not have wanted to eat that throw. I think 0:13:13.160 --> 0:13:15.240 ultimately the coverage, that's one of the things I can't 0:13:15.240 --> 0:13:17.600 wait to go down and watch tomorrow morning. Yeah, that's 0:13:17.640 --> 0:13:20.000 gonna be a good one to dig into. Obviously, takeaway 0:13:20.080 --> 0:13:22.240 number one gives us a long discussion, and we could 0:13:22.240 --> 0:13:24.319 probably keep going. But let's get to take away. And 0:13:24.360 --> 0:13:26.440 then I look at the offense. Right, the offense I 0:13:26.520 --> 0:13:29.360 thought sputtered today, right, you know, And I'm putting it 0:13:29.440 --> 0:13:32.800 kindly by saying they sputtered. They look good the first 0:13:32.800 --> 0:13:34.760 couple of drives. You go down and get three points 0:13:34.800 --> 0:13:37.680 in an opening drive I know was aided by passing afference, 0:13:37.880 --> 0:13:40.080 but you're able to get three there. They put a 0:13:40.120 --> 0:13:42.839 touchdown up there early. Really their longest drive of the 0:13:42.920 --> 0:13:47.640 game ended with the Goddard touchdown, and after that, for 0:13:47.920 --> 0:13:50.640 basically the next quarter and a half, almost two quarters, 0:13:50.840 --> 0:13:54.000 the offense basically did nothing but punt the football or 0:13:54.040 --> 0:13:56.800 either turn it over with the fumble when Carson's holding 0:13:56.840 --> 0:13:59.920 onto the ball too long just this was gonna be 0:13:59.920 --> 0:14:02.280 a day that you were gonna need a balanced attack 0:14:02.760 --> 0:14:05.640 to give the Pagris credit. They knew the Eagles wanted 0:14:05.640 --> 0:14:07.600 to come in and try to establish a run game. 0:14:07.640 --> 0:14:09.480 They were trying to make sure the Eagles couldn't run 0:14:09.480 --> 0:14:12.800 the ball today. No effectiveness out of the running game, 0:14:12.960 --> 0:14:14.960 whether it be the running backs not being able to 0:14:14.960 --> 0:14:17.920 find the right holes or the offensive linemen upfront not 0:14:18.080 --> 0:14:21.280 creating the holes to really put you in down in 0:14:21.400 --> 0:14:24.720 distant situations where you can sort of use your bootlegs 0:14:24.720 --> 0:14:26.720 and your waggles and things of that nature where it's 0:14:26.760 --> 0:14:28.880 third and five or less, so that you don't make 0:14:28.920 --> 0:14:31.920 it as tough on you offensively trying to pick up 0:14:31.960 --> 0:14:35.760 first downs, couldn't get anything going, and really will found 0:14:35.800 --> 0:14:39.000 themselves fortunate to be in a position to tightest game 0:14:39.400 --> 0:14:42.080 late in the fourth quarter because their offense really left 0:14:42.120 --> 0:14:44.280 a lot to be desired today. Two guys they really 0:14:44.320 --> 0:14:47.160 missed in this game. Jordan Howard for sure really missed 0:14:47.400 --> 0:14:50.160 his presence between the tackles downhill and then Lane Johnson 0:14:50.200 --> 0:14:52.080 losing him in the first quarter to the head injury. 0:14:52.560 --> 0:14:55.880 Those two Ivy absences, though, really really affected, especially that 0:14:55.920 --> 0:14:58.200 run game yeah, let's it seems like you could, you know, 0:14:58.280 --> 0:15:00.680 kind of draw that line of with Lane Johnson in 0:15:00.720 --> 0:15:03.440 and with Lane out, and everything kind of unraveled their 0:15:03.480 --> 0:15:05.240 own offense as soon as he went out. And then 0:15:05.280 --> 0:15:08.120 you know, five sacks on Carson wentz obviously not all 0:15:08.160 --> 0:15:10.400 of those on the right tackle, but having Lain there, 0:15:10.440 --> 0:15:12.520 you know, it is it is that unit. How big 0:15:12.520 --> 0:15:14.960 of a loss was that for this team? I mean 0:15:15.000 --> 0:15:18.120 eighty four yards in the first quarter, forty yards in 0:15:18.160 --> 0:15:20.160 the second and third quarter combined. I mean they were 0:15:20.360 --> 0:15:22.560 Dave mentioned they had two hundred and fifty five yards 0:15:22.600 --> 0:15:25.360 total in the game, but uh, you know they couldn't 0:15:25.360 --> 0:15:27.280 do watch the second third. All right. Coach Doug Peterson 0:15:27.320 --> 0:15:30.240 about to take the podium to kind of sum up this, uh, 0:15:30.280 --> 0:15:39.320 this loss. Let's hear what he has to say. Offensively, obviously, 0:15:39.440 --> 0:15:43.440 after the long drive, I assume that didn't go as 0:15:43.480 --> 0:15:48.320 you projected. How did not have a Jordan all Sean 0:15:48.920 --> 0:15:53.440 affect you all? Offensive? Um? I mean it affects you, 0:15:53.840 --> 0:15:58.000 uh you know, um in in in a few ways. 0:15:58.120 --> 0:16:01.760 But you know, I thought I thought that, uh you know, 0:16:01.840 --> 0:16:04.960 really to that that long drive to score was obviously 0:16:05.000 --> 0:16:07.320 something positive. We had a nice little mix there running 0:16:07.360 --> 0:16:09.680 past and we stayed kind of positive, you know, and 0:16:09.720 --> 0:16:12.040 ahead ahead of the change around first and second down. 0:16:12.400 --> 0:16:16.480 Really at that point, um, I felt like that that 0:16:17.200 --> 0:16:20.400 you know, we we we kind of found ourselves going 0:16:20.400 --> 0:16:22.400 backwards a little bit. And in games like this too, 0:16:22.400 --> 0:16:26.160 I mean, you know, the penalties, whether they're pre snap 0:16:26.320 --> 0:16:30.560 or you know, uh during the play obviously, the turnovers 0:16:31.120 --> 0:16:34.240 and and then you know, just lack of production overall 0:16:34.320 --> 0:16:37.200 as an offense really kind of kept us. Uh uh 0:16:37.520 --> 0:16:39.040 you know, kind of stimy. The rest of the game 0:16:40.080 --> 0:16:42.800 was like in the locker room. But what was your 0:16:42.880 --> 0:16:46.200 message to the team house? The guys are the guys 0:16:46.200 --> 0:16:51.119 are disappointed. I mean it's uh, I mean they're frustrated. 0:16:51.240 --> 0:16:54.400 You know. Um, they understand that we're we're better football 0:16:54.400 --> 0:16:58.240 team than than what we played and tonight, and um, 0:16:58.320 --> 0:17:03.560 you know it's just, um, we just have to we 0:17:03.840 --> 0:17:06.360 as coaches, we got to coach better. Obviously, we understand 0:17:06.359 --> 0:17:08.399 that we got to play better. We didn't make enough plays. 0:17:08.760 --> 0:17:11.440 I thought the defense really kept us in this football 0:17:11.480 --> 0:17:15.800 game for the most part. Um, and and and then 0:17:15.840 --> 0:17:17.960 offense we would just failed to execute, you know, and 0:17:17.960 --> 0:17:21.320 and uh, something that the guys really pride themselves on 0:17:21.400 --> 0:17:24.479 we all do and and um uh it just just 0:17:24.520 --> 0:17:26.879 not enough, not enough plays. There was Your assessment of 0:17:26.960 --> 0:17:30.200 carson performance, particularly on the drive, really got you got 0:17:30.240 --> 0:17:35.520 down there laying the game. Um yeah, I thought overall, 0:17:35.600 --> 0:17:37.960 you know, he really was was it was into the 0:17:38.040 --> 0:17:40.679 into the game plan, into the game. Um, you know, 0:17:40.760 --> 0:17:44.159 made made some really good decisions. I think you know 0:17:45.200 --> 0:17:48.159 where where it kind of it was hard for the 0:17:48.240 --> 0:17:50.680 offense was really you know on first and second down 0:17:50.680 --> 0:17:52.720 that the success we've had leading up to this game 0:17:52.840 --> 0:17:55.480 was we were positive on first and second down and 0:17:55.480 --> 0:17:57.440 and we were in too many second longs and third 0:17:57.480 --> 0:18:00.680 longs today. And you know that's that's hard. It's hard 0:18:00.720 --> 0:18:02.440 for your quarterback and to put your quarterback in at 0:18:02.520 --> 0:18:04.400 that position because you know you're gonna have to throw 0:18:04.440 --> 0:18:07.160 the ball and um, you know, routes are a little 0:18:07.160 --> 0:18:10.280 bit deeper and things like that. But I thought, overall, um, 0:18:10.320 --> 0:18:12.320 you know, for the most part, played played pretty well. 0:18:12.400 --> 0:18:14.679 You know, obviously we'll watch it tomorrow and make a 0:18:14.680 --> 0:18:16.920 better assessment of that. Look, I know you're short handed 0:18:17.000 --> 0:18:19.280 on offense, but it seemed like a lot of times 0:18:19.280 --> 0:18:21.040 the offense was in the huddle not coming to the 0:18:21.080 --> 0:18:23.560
