Speaker 1: We are back from the bye. It's Eagles three sixty.
Speaker 1: Dave Spiedero, Eagles insider, along with the Hall of Famer
Speaker 1: Brian Westbrook, rested, Relax, you look good. Good weekend. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Ready for some Eagles football though, right, Misseda. So we're
Speaker 1: watching on Sunday, and the NFC East gets a whole
Speaker 1: lot better for the Eagles who win during the bye week.
Speaker 1: The Giants lose to New Orleans in a shootout. The
Speaker 1: Cowboys lose to Seattle in a game where the offense
Speaker 1: is for their team. Just nothing going on there. So
Speaker 1: b West briefly here the NFC East, as we say
Speaker 1: every week, wide well, it is wide open, and I
Speaker 1: think that's a great thing for the Eagles. And anytime
Speaker 1: that you can not play, not lose a game and
Speaker 1: everyone else in the division loses definitely helps you out.
Speaker 1: I think the biggest thing that they should be able
Speaker 1: to do in the bye week is to get helping
Speaker 1: get all your guys back. It's great to have the
Speaker 1: other teams lose, but most importantly get your guys back
Speaker 1: that you need for the long stress to the end
Speaker 1: of the season. If they could do that and get
Speaker 1: those guys back, it's a much better team coming after
Speaker 1: the by than it was going in. We are all
Speaker 1: so curious to see what happens to this football team
Speaker 1: after the bye week. Eagles off on Monday. They return
Speaker 1: to training on Tuesday, and of course, the Dallas Cowboys
Speaker 1: Sunday Night football awaits for the Eagles. The Cowboys really
Speaker 1: struggling at the quarterback position. With their loss to Seattle,
Speaker 1: they are now two and five. We'll get a look
Speaker 1: at the Cowboys a little bit later on some thoughts
Speaker 1: on that team. But Brian and I have a lot
Speaker 1: to get you just catching up on this Philadelphia Eagles
Speaker 1: football team, and when we return to Eagles three sixty,
Speaker 1: we'll take a look at some players, some of the
Speaker 1: good and some of the maybe not so good of
Speaker 1: a three and four start. Experience the power of physical

Speaker 1: or more on car insurance. We welcome you back at
Speaker 1: Tigales three sixty Dave Spidery O'Brian Westbrook, And whilst not
Speaker 1: exactly the middle of the season, we have a break,
Speaker 1: so we're going to treat it as such. Brian and
Speaker 1: I are gonna talk about some of the players we
Speaker 1: think have improved this football team and some as we
Speaker 1: get along in the show, who have a lot to prove. Brian,
Speaker 1: let's begin here with some players. Maybe the most improved player,
Speaker 1: don't I'll start this, how about the best newcomer on
Speaker 1: this team. I think the best newcomer has to be
Speaker 1: Jordan Hicks. The things that he's been able to do
Speaker 1: on that football team of the football field has been great.
Speaker 1: When you're talking about you're losing Michael Kendricks and you
Speaker 1: lost to Miko Ryans for games there, and you have
Speaker 1: a rookie come in to play the way that he's played,
Speaker 1: it's been outstanding. He has really that defense hasn't missed
Speaker 1: a beat. He's making plays on the sideline. He's made
Speaker 1: plays in a past game, he's intercepted the ball, and
Speaker 1: he's making a lot of plays in a run game.
Speaker 1: I love the way these young players play. I love
Speaker 1: the way he's playing as well, But I'm going to
Speaker 1: go with another defensive player. This time it will be
Speaker 1: safety Walter Thurman. Walter Thurman was one of the players
Speaker 1: nobody really talked about during the free agency period. The
Speaker 1: Eagles go out and get DeMarco Murray, and they signed
Speaker 1: Ryan Matthews, and they trade for Sam Bradford, and they
Speaker 1: acquire Byron Maxwell, and then Walter Thurman. Well, what's he
Speaker 1: gonna do here? Will? The Eagles saw something in him
Speaker 1: to really compliment this defensive secondary, moving him from cornerback
Speaker 1: to safety, where he and Malcolm Jenkins have been just
Speaker 1: terrific together and their ability to cover down the field
Speaker 1: has allowed Bill Davis to do a lot of different
Speaker 1: things in his defense. And I think this defense is
Speaker 1: in a whole lot better shape now than it was
Speaker 1: last year, no question about it. When you had that
Speaker 1: leadership from Malcolm Jenkins and you add another guy that
Speaker 1: can cover just as good as Walter Thurman, and the
Speaker 1: thing that you talk about for safeties is being able
Speaker 1: to cover. But he's one of the better tackles on
Speaker 1: this football team, and I think that goes a long
Speaker 1: way because he's a success of this defense. How about
Speaker 1: we talk about the most improved player here on this team. Now,
Speaker 1: I will go with a player who's was on the
Speaker 1: roster last year, and it's Benny Logan. Benny Logan has
Speaker 1: been a game changing nose tackle for this Eagles run defense.
Speaker 1: And I know that in Carolina the Eagles giving up
Speaker 1: two hundred plush yards on the ground. But Logan's power
Speaker 1: is versatility, the passion that he plays with, the physical
Speaker 1: nature upfront. Fletcher Cox gets the credit a lot of it,
Speaker 1: and deservedly so. Fletcher Cox an outstanding player, But to me,
Speaker 1: Benny Logan is really made that leap into a premier
Speaker 1: nose tackle, and I think that sets up this entire
Speaker 1: three four front Friend, It's taken a couple of years.
Speaker 1: Eagles seem to have the pieces in places. When you
Speaker 1: look at Benny Logan, you're telling a player that's going
Speaker 1: to consistently be double team every single game. I mean
Speaker 1: you're talking about offensive lineman three hundred plus pounds every
Speaker 1: single game. He's going to get a double team almost
Speaker 1: for every play, but he still finds a way to
Speaker 1: make a play. Benny Logan is a great foot how
Speaker 1: he got one for most most improved. Yeah, I think
Speaker 1: the guy does most improved offensively, especially is Ryan Matthews.
Speaker 1: And the reason why I say that is because he's
Speaker 1: coming into a situation from being a starter in San Diego,
Speaker 1: he played a lot of plays sixty seventy plus plays
Speaker 1: per game. In this situation that he's in here in
Speaker 1: Philadelphia is that he's going to play ten fifteen plays
Speaker 1: a game, and it's very hard as a running back
Speaker 1: to find your rhythm only playing that limit to the
Speaker 1: amount of plays. But he's been very successful. He's been
Speaker 1: very productive offensively, and that's why I think he's one
Speaker 1: of the most improved. So how do you handle that situation,
Speaker 1: Coach Brian Well, I think you have to get closer
Speaker 1: closer to fifty carry fifty fifty for East guy. You
Speaker 1: have to give DeMarco Murray his carriers because he deserves it,
Speaker 1: and you also have to give Ryan Matthews his carries
Speaker 1: because he deserves it as well. He's been the most
Speaker 1: explosive player on offense. You have to have him gab really,
Speaker 1: you have to give him the more touches, that's the
Speaker 1: most important thing. Give him some more touches either in
Speaker 1: the run game or the passing Okay, and we will
Speaker 1: see if that happens if DeMarco Murray continues to take
Speaker 1: the Lion's share of the carries. Now, most outstanding player,
Speaker 1: it's easy to go with a defensive player, as I'm
Speaker 1: sure Brian will do. I'm going to go with an
Speaker 1: offensive player and kind of specialize this category. The most
Speaker 1: outstanding player on this football team Jason Peters at left
Speaker 1: offensive tackle. You see what happens when he's out there
Speaker 1: and dominating against the Saints, against the Giants, played great
Speaker 1: at left tackle. Eagles offense really showing its ability moving
Speaker 1: up and down the field when he's been hurt, which
Speaker 1: has been more often than not in the first seven games.
Speaker 1: To see the ripple effect that has on the offense.
Speaker 1: Pieces have to move. The Eagles not as potent off
Speaker 1: the edge. So I go with Jason Peters and hope
Speaker 1: that he comes back from the back spasm suffered in
Speaker 1: Carolina and has just a great fight on nine games
Speaker 1: of the season. If he can do that, brand I
Speaker 1: just think it helps the entire offense. Well, I think
Speaker 1: what you're describing is a great player in Jason Peters.
Speaker 1: But what great players do is they make the players
Speaker 1: around them better. And that's what Jason Peters does. He
Speaker 1: makes that offensive linement, the offensive line position group much
Speaker 1: better when he's out there, and of course when he's
Speaker 1: not playing, I think it definitely hurts that entire offense.
Speaker 1: You got the most outstanding player for us. Well, I
Speaker 1: think defensively, when you look at these guys up front,
Speaker 1: it's been really really hard to get past these guys
Speaker 1: in a run game. And I think a lot of
Speaker 1: it has to do with Fletcher Cox. A lot of
Speaker 1: time people spent talking about him not will being willing
Speaker 1: to two gap, but this year he's two gap in
Speaker 1: his butt off. He's playing the run. He's playing the past,
Speaker 1: and you don't get that from a lot of defensive
Speaker 1: linement in the league. The league is so specialized these
Speaker 1: these days. Is that either play the run or you
Speaker 1: play the past. Fletcher Cox has done a great job
Speaker 1: playing both. A very worthy choice. So that is our
Speaker 1: midseason look at some of the players, some awards, if
Speaker 1: you will, for this three and four Eagles team. When
Speaker 1: we return to Eagles three sixty, we've got to look
Speaker 1: at the Dallas Cowboys. How can you not talk about them?
Speaker 1: Us six days away from primetime once again for the Eagles,
Speaker 1: but next up on three sixty our second half look
Speaker 1: at the Eagles. What players really need to step up
Speaker 1: for this team to play to the ability to the
Speaker 1: level that we all think it can when we return
Speaker 1: in just a moment, the tournament is there. You're here,
Speaker 1: and before you take the team star midfielder from here
Speaker 1: to there along with his entourage, you have some things
Speaker 1: to do, like finding a place to stay. It's getting
Speaker 1: an oil change, mapping out the best route. Yes, are

Speaker 1: Eagles three sixty Dave Spideryo Brian Westbrook taking a look
Speaker 1: at the Eagles getting ready for the Dallas Cowboys on
Speaker 1: Sunday night, Prime time for the Eagles starting the final
Speaker 1: nine game run of this regular season. Brian, let's talk
Speaker 1: about some of the players that need to step up.
Speaker 1: We all know that everybody needs to step up on
Speaker 1: the roster. It's a complete team effort here, but specifically offensively,
Speaker 1: Eagles really not as potent in the past game as
Speaker 1: we thought they would be. Yeah, they need some big
Speaker 1: time production from the wide receivers. But Nelson Aguilar in
Speaker 1: particular has to step up. I know he's a rookie,
Speaker 1: but they need some outside presence. They need someone that
Speaker 1: has ability to stress to feel like he does. They
Speaker 1: need some playmaking coming from his way. And if they
Speaker 1: do that, that's going to open things up for for
Speaker 1: Jordan Matthews. That's going to open up everything for the
Speaker 1: running game as well. It's gonna make it a lot
Speaker 1: easier for Sam Bradford to be a confident quarterback of
Speaker 1: person that can field the ball down the field. He
Speaker 1: has to step up in this second half of this Sason,
Speaker 1: if this team offensively wants to be successful. Your thoughts,
Speaker 1: Brian on Matthews on Josh Huff There has just been
Speaker 1: inconsistency with Jordan certainly catching the football and Josh performance
Speaker 1: wise production wise not as consistent as I think everybody
Speaker 1: hoped you would be. Yeah, I hope this bye week
Speaker 1: as an opportunity for all of those receivers to get
Speaker 1: away from the game and understand. Listen, don't worry about
Speaker 1: the pressure, don't worry about anything else. Just go out
Speaker 1: there and play your game. Play be the player that
Speaker 1: they drafted you here to be, be the player that
Speaker 1: you are in practice, and if you can develop that
Speaker 1: type of consistency in that thought process, then you can
Speaker 1: be successful in the NFL. My offensive player needs to
Speaker 1: step out. Obviously, everybody knows that Sam Bradford really needs
Speaker 1: to get his game more consistent. He certainly has shown
Speaker 1: signs in recent games of playing at a higher level.
Speaker 1: But my player that I'm going to say is kind
Speaker 1: of on the spot or needs to raise his game,
Speaker 1: and he knows about it is Jason Kelsey. Jason Kelsey
Speaker 1: talks about it every single week, good or bad. He
Speaker 1: is the key to the Eagles in terms of setting
Speaker 1: the blocking schemes, being the brain of the offensive line,
Speaker 1: setting the tempo for this Eagles offensive line. Really one
Speaker 1: of the leaders in the locker room. And as important
Speaker 1: as Jason Peters is at left tackle, that is very
Speaker 1: much how important Jason Kelsey is at the center position.
Speaker 1: And this year he's been taken out of the game
Speaker 1: just a little bit. Teams are really penetrating, not allowing
Speaker 1: him to get to the second level, not allowing him
Speaker 1: ryan to use his athletic ability. If you want this
Speaker 1: running game to go, you have to be you have
Speaker 1: to get pushed from your center. And I think Judson
Speaker 1: Kelsey is the type of guy. He's an all Pro.
Speaker 1: He's a guy that can get it done in the
Speaker 1: running gag. They just need him to be a little
Speaker 1: bit more stern, a little bit more stiff upfront, not
Speaker 1: allowing guys to penetrate so much in the backfield. And
Speaker 1: it he's able to do that, this running game will
Speaker 1: take off all right. On the defensive side of the
Speaker 1: Football Eagles defense has played quite well for seven games
Speaker 1: for the most part. Now they want to get even better,
Speaker 1: and they've got some players coming back from injury who
Speaker 1: could make a difference. Yeah, I think they had definitely
Speaker 1: had some guys coming back with Matthews, it's give me
Speaker 1: Ryan's as well as ken just I think the group
Speaker 1: that needs to get better. You need more production from
Speaker 1: the outside linebackers. You saw that last year. Connor Barbin
Speaker 1: was an All a Pro Bowl type of guy, a
Speaker 1: lot of sacks. This year, he hasn't had that same
Speaker 1: type of production. Maybe it's because of the numbers just
Speaker 1: aren't right, but we need to have production from colar
Speaker 1: Ol Barman as well as Brandon Graham. We need pressure
Speaker 1: on the quarterback that's going to take the pressure off
Speaker 1: of everybody on this defense. If they had that, then
Speaker 1: this defense could be even better than it has been
Speaker 1: already this year. And you want to talk about a
Speaker 1: defense getting better, how about the cornerback play getting even
Speaker 1: more improved. I mean, Byron Maxwell has shown signs step
Speaker 1: by step of becoming more comfortable in this defensive scheme
Speaker 1: as you look at the schedule ahead, though Dez Bryant
Speaker 1: he's ready to play football. And then the Miami Dolphins
Speaker 1: come to town with players like Jarvis Landry and Tampa
Speaker 1: Bay with all their big receivers Mike Evans, and then
Speaker 1: Detroit with Megatron. You've got Odell Beckham, You've got to
Speaker 1: Sean Jackson, You've got the Patriots running all sorts of
Speaker 1: things that you're including a bunch of tight ends. So
Speaker 1: Byron Maxwell needs to get better and better and better
Speaker 1: and really become kind of the shutdown cornerback that the
Speaker 1: Eagles envisioned he would be. I'm not talking about Richard
Speaker 1: Sherman here, because we know that in free agency you
Speaker 1: overpay for players. I'm talking about a consistent, dependable, solid, functional, scrappy,
Speaker 1: tenacious Byron Maxwell. And we're seeing signs of that Brian
Speaker 1: the final nine weeks. I want to see that every week. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we saw him struggle early on in the season, but
Speaker 1: I think as a season has gone on, he's done
Speaker 1: a much better job of protecting what's most sacred to
Speaker 1: a dB, not giving up the big place. He's doing
Speaker 1: a much better job of that. I think Billy Davis
Speaker 1: has finally understand exactly what type of player he is,
Speaker 1: and I think as the season continues to progress, he'll
Speaker 1: continue to get better, but he definitely has some big
Speaker 1: challenges coming up in the second half of the year.
Speaker 1: Speaking of big challenges, it's Dallas Week and that means
Speaker 1: we're gonna have a lot of fun around here. On
Speaker 1: Eagles three sixty, it's the Cowboys two and five showing
Speaker 1: signs season on the brink. We'll talk about them when
Speaker 1: we return. Eagles three sixteen. Just one second. When you
Speaker 1: get away from smart it's in video games and tablets.

Speaker 1: be gang. I sept to Philly anywhere. The season was
Speaker 1: two thousand and eleven, and it was a mediocre NFC East.
Speaker 1: The Giants at one point that year staring sinning six
Speaker 1: and six. They win three of their last four games.
Speaker 1: They win the division at nine and seven. The Eagles
Speaker 1: in Dallas both at eight and eight, and everybody said, yah,
Speaker 1: the NFC East, it stinks. Well, the Giants went on
Speaker 1: to win the Super Bowl that year, beating the Patriots,
Speaker 1: So you never know. It's Eagles three sixty. Dave Spidero
Speaker 1: and Brian Westbrook, let's chat about the NFC East for
Speaker 1: a moment here. Is it as bad as it looks?
Speaker 1: Or is it just starting to get a separation cream
Speaker 1: And I think it is as bad as it looks.
Speaker 1: What you're seeing is that you're not seeing a lot
Speaker 1: of consistent play by any team. And we talk about
Speaker 1: consistency and execution every single week here about the Eagles,
Speaker 1: but you haven't seen very much of that throughout this division.
Speaker 1: But this is a good thing for the Eagles that
Speaker 1: they have an opportunity and this week they play one
Speaker 1: of the teams in the division and it's a must
Speaker 1: win game. You can't afford to go one and three
Speaker 1: in division. You can't afford to have two losses to
Speaker 1: Dallas throughout in this season. The Eagles have to win
Speaker 1: this football game, and it's going to take a big
Speaker 1: push from them offensively as well as defensively. But this
Speaker 1: is definitely a beatable team in Dallas. Cowboy. If the
Speaker 1: Cowboys interesting thirteen to twelve losers to Seattle on Sunday,
Speaker 1: they get Dez Bryant back, Yes, two catches, twelve yards,
Speaker 1: pretty inconsequential numbers from him. They ran the football fairly well,
Speaker 1: but no touchdowns. Brian and I don't know if there's
Speaker 1: a solution for the Cowboys until Tony Romo gets back.
Speaker 1: I mean, if you're Bill Davis, what do you want
Speaker 1: to do to if you stack the box to stop
Speaker 1: the run. You're gonna double team Brian, You're gonna double
Speaker 1: team Jason Witten. What do you want to do defensively? Well,
Speaker 1: I think defensively you have to start by stacking the box.
Speaker 1: You don't want to allow this offensive line take over
Speaker 1: the game, similar to the way that the Carolina Panther's offense,
Speaker 1: the line took over the game, especially in the second half.
Speaker 1: The last time the Eagles play, so you have to
Speaker 1: stack the box, make sure that this Darren McFadden doesn't
Speaker 1: get going, because he's looked pretty good the last couple
Speaker 1: of weeks. And then you play one on one outside
Speaker 1: with desk. You had your safety take an eye look
Speaker 1: at him from time to time. But I'd like to
Speaker 1: see Byron Maxwell in his face, physical play, just like
Speaker 1: Richard Sherman was last week. Make him get off the
Speaker 1: line with that sore foot. And if you do that
Speaker 1: and you stack the box, then you have a much
Speaker 1: better chance of getting to the quarterback, especially if they
Speaker 1: throw the football. And for the offense, it's kind of
Speaker 1: a get back at him game. The Eagles shut down
Speaker 1: in Week two against the Dallas Cowboys. The offense that
Speaker 1: day was really ineffective, a couple of big mistakes from
Speaker 1: Sam Bradford, including that end zone interception a great pick
Speaker 1: from Shaun Lee. So the Eagles offense wants to come
Speaker 1: out roaring against the Dallas Cowboys. A second look at
Speaker 1: a team now that has Greg Hardy, Randy Gregory. They're
Speaker 1: much better upfront and the secondary. Remarkably, Brian has kind
Speaker 1: of withstood all of these problems and they're keeping the
Speaker 1: Cowboys and games. Yeah, the secondary has played pretty decent
Speaker 1: because their front seven, they're actually getting out the quarterback
Speaker 1: just a bit. And I think one thing that's important
Speaker 1: for this Eagles team is to get a fast start.
Speaker 1: In the first seven games, they've only scored ten points
Speaker 1: in the first quarter. That's just not gonna be enough
Speaker 1: to compete throughout the second half of the season. They
Speaker 1: had to get a fast start going on. They need
Speaker 1: production from this offensive line. We talked about Jason Kelsey
Speaker 1: as well as Jason Peters. These guys have to leave
Speaker 1: this offensive team. If they do that and Sam Bradford
Speaker 1: comes to play complete completes the ball down the field,
Speaker 1: I think they have a chance. All right. So it's
Speaker 1: the Cowboys Eagles on Sunday Night Football. We've got more
Speaker 1: to go here on Eagles three sixty stay with us?
Speaker 1: Do you any more? Chips Bellas, I'm sorry. We were
Speaker 1: daydreaming about that VIP tailgate and game tickets. Yeah, that
Speaker 1: pregame sideline experience exactly. Weave an Eagle season tickets. How
Speaker 1: do you know you both have the new Instant game
Speaker 1: from the Pennsylvania Lottery. Yeah, the Eagles Instant Game with
Speaker 1: top prizes of fifty grand and second chance prizes including
Speaker 1: season tickets the Pennsylvania Lottery. Bring your dreams to life.
Speaker 1: I got tickets, Metro tickets. You need a Metro ticket?
Speaker 1: Talk to me, please. I don't even know even real tickets.
Speaker 1: If you touch it, this leather legit, I mean, how
Speaker 1: do we really know? It looks good? Right now? I'm
Speaker 1: paying myself. I gotta make Does a baby need a
Speaker 1: Metro ticket? I'll give her one on me. These tickets,
Speaker 1: they're not stealing your soul. You can look at him
Speaker 1: by Nobody wants to buy tickets from a guy on
Speaker 1: the street. I don't understand love. The Eagles play the
Speaker 1: new Instant Game from the Pennsylvania Lottery. Players must be
Speaker 1: eighteen or older. Please play responsibly. Final segment here on
Speaker 1: Eagles three sixty Dave Spidero Brian Westbrook, and the topic
Speaker 1: has to be as we look ahead to the rest
Speaker 1: of the week here sam Bradford after the bye, Brian,
Speaker 1: what steps does he take here week off? Bodies fresh
Speaker 1: played every rep, took every day in practice, got better
Speaker 1: throwing the football down the field. Still not to the level,
Speaker 1: so there's some room for growth. Yeah. I think Sam
Speaker 1: Bradford definitely has improved throughout the season, has a progress.
Speaker 1: I think the one thing that he has to continue
Speaker 1: to take a look at is how does he get
Speaker 1: better inside of the pocket? How do you have more
Speaker 1: confidence in the offensive line and their protection and then
Speaker 1: be able to throw the ball to your receivers on
Speaker 1: time in the right place. If he's able to do that,
Speaker 1: then they have a chance. The thing that I think
Speaker 1: Sam Bradford is lacking in from time to time is
Speaker 1: his confidence, his accuracy and then a little bit of
Speaker 1: mobility inside of the pocket. You don't have to rush
Speaker 1: every single path. Sometimes you're gonna take a hit, and
Speaker 1: if you do, you just have to make sure you
Speaker 1: take care of the football. But he has to be
Speaker 1: confident in the guise up front, and I think if
Speaker 1: he does go back and watch some of the films,
Speaker 1: he'll see that he has a much better pocket and
Speaker 1: much better protection than he probably thought he did during
Speaker 1: the game. And in the big picture, huge that Sam
Speaker 1: Bradford plays well in these final nine games. Remember one
Speaker 1: year contract. Eagles don't know whether he's a franchise quarterback yet,
Speaker 1: so you kind of want to lock down that quarterback
Speaker 1: position one way or the other, not only for this year,
Speaker 1: but for many years to come. So what dave you
Speaker 1: talked about the twenty and eleven year when when the
Speaker 1: Giants were just average towards the middle of the year,
Speaker 1: Eli Manning went on a tear that second half of
Speaker 1: the year, and Sam Bradford has the ability to do
Speaker 1: the same thing. Of Course, the wide receivers have to
Speaker 1: catch the ball. Of course, everybody has to play a
Speaker 1: little bit better, and he has to be protected. But
Speaker 1: he has that same opportunity and if he does that,
Speaker 1: then we won't be talking about at the end of
Speaker 1: the year, who's our quarterback for next year, who's our
Speaker 1: franchise guy. It would be Sam Bradford. He has to
Speaker 1: go into a tear as far as the second half,
Speaker 1: really interesting to see how people have judged Sam after
Speaker 1: seven games. I think it's kind of premature. The guy
Speaker 1: hadn't played football for two years. It takes some time
Speaker 1: just to get the rust off. And I think if
Speaker 1: if he can proves and listen, he's a veteran guy,
Speaker 1: so he understands how the off week goes. You look
Speaker 1: at the tape, you see all the things that you
Speaker 1: did bad, all the things you did good. Improve them,
Speaker 1: the bad, continue to get better at the good, and
Speaker 1: I think it will have a chance. So big week
Speaker 1: ahead for Bradford, big week ahead for the Eagles, big
Speaker 1: week ahead for all of us. Let's take a look
Speaker 1: at our mrosos on the menu segment what do we
Speaker 1: have in store for you? Well, of course Eagles three
Speaker 1: sixty here every night at five o'clock. In on Tuesday,
Speaker 1: Glenn mcnow joins me in studio. We take our first
Speaker 1: detailed look at Philadelphia and Dallas, our fantasy spend with
Speaker 1: Joe Roland, Alex Smith and Chip Kelly meets to media
Speaker 1: and he's talking injuries. Does Nelson Aghaloor play on Sunday night?
Speaker 1: Is Keikolanso ready to get back on the field? About
Speaker 1: Damiko Ryan's Ryan Matthews with that growing injury, a lot
Speaker 1: to catch up on. As the Eagles are back from
Speaker 1: the bier. We're glad to be here. We thank you

Speaker 1: yourselves a great Eagles Day
