Speaker 1: Welcome everyone of the Eagles three sixty and Saturdays to
Speaker 1: They're with you on the Tuesday at an Overcare Complex.
Speaker 1: We've got a great show for you today as the
Speaker 1: Eagles turned the page a bit after Sunday's win at Washington,
Speaker 1: now looking ahead to the Kansas City Chiefs, and in
Speaker 1: the midst of all that some fairly serious injuries to
Speaker 1: consider and some roster juggling should be done. We'll be
Speaker 1: joined by head coach Doug Peterson in just a little
Speaker 1: while here in studio. Glenn mcnow joins me in a
Speaker 1: moment here we'll talk about his takeaways from the game.
Speaker 1: But first we go back to Sunday's game and talk
Speaker 1: about one of the key plays and one of the
Speaker 1: key plays from a defensive line position that really dominated
Speaker 1: and that we'll have to dominate moving forward. Fletcher Cox
Speaker 1: the big move to get to Kirk Cousins for the
Speaker 1: sack and the forced fumble. We break it down than
Speaker 1: our tape study with Ike Grease and defensive line coach
Speaker 1: Chris Wilson. It sturns down on the six for the
Speaker 1: Ruskin shut gun again, Christ comps up to the light
Speaker 1: of Cousins. Spruick he's in football and loose and I
Speaker 1: think the Eagles haven't they do? Comes on slack my
Speaker 1: funker tucks and the Eagles have the ball during the
Speaker 1: tarn On Eagles game plan for another edition of Tape
Speaker 1: Study is defensive Wine coach coach Chris Wilson, coach, welcome
Speaker 1: to the show. Well, big week for the defensive line
Speaker 1: this last week really said the tone, came up with
Speaker 1: big plays all throughout the game. Let's take a look
Speaker 1: at the first sack of the game. You're gonna get
Speaker 1: a nice job here, Fletcher Cox. Everybody wants Fletcher make
Speaker 1: it more plays. No better way to do it in
Speaker 1: the first game here, Well, the first thing we did,
Speaker 1: we came out believe this was a second down call
Speaker 1: for us. And what we're doing right now is we're
Speaker 1: gonna take Timmy here and let him have a two
Speaker 1: way go here on the guard and let Fletcher become
Speaker 1: a contained Russia. Brandon now becomes a dropper for And
Speaker 1: what we always teach these guys on the position is
Speaker 1: to do a great job once you clear to become
Speaker 1: a Russia, which Fletcher did great finish mind with that
Speaker 1: outside hand getting the ball out. Last thing I love
Speaker 1: about it. You know, he's going for the big play,
Speaker 1: not just a sack. He wants that ball out. Great
Speaker 1: recognition there by Fletcher. Time now to welcome in Glenn
Speaker 1: mac Now to our studio on this Tuesday at th
Speaker 1: an Overcare Complex. Who's still trembling a bit from Sunday
Speaker 1: win over the Washington Risks. What was it like for
Speaker 1: you to watch that game? Was the demeanor? It was
Speaker 1: a nail fighter. It was tense. You know, they started
Speaker 1: out so well, I'm thinking, wow, could the Eagles blow
Speaker 1: them out? Yeah? Right, the first game of the season,
Speaker 1: and then Washington comes back. Momentum back and forth, really
Speaker 1: dave up until the strip sack, fumble recovery and instant replay.
Speaker 1: That's the first time I felt confident. And did you
Speaker 1: feel that that play, the Fletcher Cox return would be overturned? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I think Fletcher Cox, the whole defense was out on
Speaker 1: the field. I know they showed it on replay a
Speaker 1: couple of times. Initially I'm thinking, no, no, look he
Speaker 1: hit his arm, and then from a different angle, maybe
Speaker 1: it's going forward. There are a lot of times when
Speaker 1: we've thought, you know, the referees didn't do the Eagles
Speaker 1: a favor there. I'm not saying they did him a favor,
Speaker 1: but in a fifty fifty it was nice to go
Speaker 1: their way. Well, now we're gonna take a look back
Speaker 1: at the game with Glenn mcnow's takeaways, but hopefully during
Speaker 1: the course of these takeaways we will discuss some of
Speaker 1: the current situations with the Eagles as they pertain to
Speaker 1: Kansas City and beyond. Well, you're beat okay, and so
Speaker 1: let's go with the first one, which is I thought
Speaker 1: the secondary did a very nice job of surviving. After
Speaker 1: Ronald Darby went down in the second quarter, Washington gained
Speaker 1: some momentum. They looked like they were scrambling out there,
Speaker 1: but they really got it together and did a nice job.
Speaker 1: Jalen Mills had a great game, not just the interception,
Speaker 1: but overall the coverage. Patrick Robinson, who had a rough preseason,
Speaker 1: was outside, went inside Hall Jamison predator three catches, fourteen yards.
Speaker 1: Malcolm Jenkins did a usual good job on Jordan Read.
Speaker 1: The secondary is going to be challenged if you want
Speaker 1: to talk about moving forward, But this day they did
Speaker 1: a very nice job. They did a great job in coverage,
Speaker 1: They tackled well, they were very secure in that, and
Speaker 1: I think Glenn look at with Ronald Darby out for
Speaker 1: however long he's going to be out, it will take
Speaker 1: a village. Jalen Watkins and Corey Graham will have to
Speaker 1: play the safety position. Jaylen Wayne's to play some cornerback
Speaker 1: who knows what. So it's gonna take a group effort.
Speaker 1: Kansas City has obviously been watching this film. They're gonna
Speaker 1: try to dissect every weakness. The front seven will have
Speaker 1: to contribute with a great pass rush to help the
Speaker 1: back end. But it's a week by week proposition. Now
Speaker 1: that you've lost your most athletic and your fastest cornerback.
Speaker 1: With players like Tyreek Hill, Odell Beckham, Junior Keenan Allen
Speaker 1: some really good receivers on the way, I was feeling
Speaker 1: pretty good about that up until that moment. It's just
Speaker 1: reality going. We are we are in the It's not
Speaker 1: going to be easy ato And by the way, speaking
Speaker 1: of Washington, they took a step back without Pierre Garson
Speaker 1: and DeShawn Jackson. Man, you are so right now. Pierre
Speaker 1: Garson DeShawn Jackson just burnt the Eagles all the time.
Speaker 1: Didn't see that, we know and without that, without that
Speaker 1: threat of speed. Without that threat of speed, it just
Speaker 1: changes everything. All right, here you go number two. It
Speaker 1: looks like it's gonna take a while for Carson Wentz
Speaker 1: to develop chemistry with the new guys. I heard this
Speaker 1: stat today The eleven starters on Eagles offense on Sunday
Speaker 1: had played together a total of eighteen plays all of
Speaker 1: pre seasons. So it showed to me when you had
Speaker 1: four catches sixty eight yards combined for Tory Smith, all
Speaker 1: Shan Jeffrey, there's not that comfort level there. There is
Speaker 1: with Zach Ertz eight for eight, eight attempts, eight completions.
Speaker 1: It was with Nelson Agila who had his best days
Speaker 1: appro six catches. But the new guys. The good news
Speaker 1: is I think a month from now it's going to
Speaker 1: be a lot better. But it was. It wasn't quite there.
Speaker 1: I'm not sure that I would attribute it to a
Speaker 1: lack of chemistry. I just thought Carson missed down the
Speaker 1: field a couple of times, a little late with Dory
Speaker 1: threw one over. But yeah, I mean so it maybe
Speaker 1: it's chemistry. But the point is yes, and that will
Speaker 1: grow and that will build and in the meantime, Ertz
Speaker 1: and Agilus stepped up and we talked about Urge last week.
Speaker 1: A full season from zach Ertz. He certainly started it
Speaker 1: off the right way. Oh, he's beats Washington, but usually
Speaker 1: in December. Yeah, he beating him earlely, he beat him early.
Speaker 1: I here you go at number three because it needs
Speaker 1: to be said. Donnie Jones is a stud man. I
Speaker 1: wondered during preseason if the Eagles were gonna go with
Speaker 1: the younger, less expensive punter. They stuck with Donnie Jones.
Speaker 1: It certainly paid off Week one. He planted that fifty
Speaker 1: yard or at the one yard line when they needed
Speaker 1: when momentum was an issue in that game, he had
Speaker 1: the big hand time on that forty yarder that led
Speaker 1: to the fumble. Overall, I thought special teams were terrific.
Speaker 1: Caleb Sturgis missed the extra point but hit the long
Speaker 1: field goals played hurt. We'll see how that plays out
Speaker 1: this week. Coverage was good special team Dave fifth Man.
Speaker 1: He started the season well and by the way, Corey
Speaker 1: Clement goes right down the field, makes the play on
Speaker 1: the first kickoff and showed that he can play at
Speaker 1: an NFL speed. I still think you're Glenn at some
Speaker 1: point he will be, maybe sooner rather than later, a
Speaker 1: factor in the Eagles running game. Nice, how about that night.
Speaker 1: I like to hear that. Yeah, I'd like to hear.
Speaker 1: Let me rate that to him right there. I like
Speaker 1: to see special teams contributing early. I remember sometimes when
Speaker 1: Harbaugh was here, because in special teams you have a
Speaker 1: lot of guys during the preseason in and out of
Speaker 1: no idea, Right, it was great to see that early
Speaker 1: special teams play that well. Well that Those are the
Speaker 1: takeaways from Glenn Mcnow. We'll talk a little bit more
Speaker 1: about the Kansas City Chiefs later in the show. And
Speaker 1: obviously the injury factor is important with Darby and Sturgis
Speaker 1: Sideline a new kicker in town. We'll talk about that
Speaker 1: as we go through the week here on Philadelphia Eagles
Speaker 1: dot com. When we return to Eagles three sixty, the
Speaker 1: head coach Doug Peterson will be in studio with me.

Speaker 1: We welcome you to our weekly exclusive one on one
Speaker 1: with head coach Doug Peterson, presented by Wah Wah. Hello
Speaker 1: everyone on Eagles Insider Dave Spidero with head coach to
Speaker 1: the Philadelphia Eagles, and we are looking ahead a bit
Speaker 1: here to the Kansas City Chiefs that went on Sunday
Speaker 1: kind of a distant memory. We talk about this before, Doug,
Speaker 1: But how quickly do your process wins and losses fast? Um?
Speaker 1: You know you spend a little bit on on a
Speaker 1: Monday morning going back and recapping and uh, you know
Speaker 1: the beauty of having iPads and things now is we
Speaker 1: can watch these games on the train, on the plane
Speaker 1: wherever it is, on the way back, so we get
Speaker 1: a lot of the grades in already. So we spend
Speaker 1: most of the time on Monday game planning and looking
Speaker 1: forward to putting the putting the plans together for the
Speaker 1: next week. Does it take young players time to process
Speaker 1: things so quickly? Do you find? Um? I think so
Speaker 1: I do. I think I think it's uh, you know,
Speaker 1: they they're going to hang onto things a little bit
Speaker 1: longer than coaches do. Um, we try to. You know,
Speaker 1: we obviously move on a lot faster, a lot quicker
Speaker 1: because we're we're in we're in game mode really on Monday,
Speaker 1: and then Tuesdays are you know, are really our big day.
Speaker 1: And then and then we go practice on Wednesday. But
Speaker 1: I think players can kind of hang on to it
Speaker 1: a little bit. Um. But you know, it's a long season. Um,
Speaker 1: you enjoy the you enjoy the wins. You spit them
Speaker 1: out as fast as you can. You get ready for
Speaker 1: the next week. What did you learn about the team
Speaker 1: on Sunday? Resiliency? Um, you know, I knew I knew
Speaker 1: that going in, and you know, I wanted to see
Speaker 1: how we were going to respond to And that was
Speaker 1: my message to the team was how how well are
Speaker 1: we going to respond when adversity hits? And and we
Speaker 1: had adversity in that game, and you know, they they
Speaker 1: responded well, like like I, like I knew they could
Speaker 1: and knew they would, and um that that's the best
Speaker 1: thing about this football team. And they play so hard
Speaker 1: and so so passionate about the game that, uh, I
Speaker 1: think we can be faced with just about anything and
Speaker 1: these guys will battle through it. Still many chapters to
Speaker 1: go in this season, Doug. But you know last year
Speaker 1: one and seven on the road, lost some games in
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter, and then on Sunday you win eleven
Speaker 1: nothing in the fourth quarter, really the big difference in
Speaker 1: that game. Why why this team shows such maturity one
Speaker 1: year to the next. I just think we learned from
Speaker 1: our our previous previous year, previous mistakes and and and
Speaker 1: there was things that that I talked to the team
Speaker 1: about all spring long and all summer and training camp
Speaker 1: was you know, we gotta learn to finish better and
Speaker 1: make plays down the stretch. And uh, what a great
Speaker 1: defensive play. Obviously the sack fumble and and to get
Speaker 1: in the end zone to really you know, stretch our lead,
Speaker 1: and you know, and then offensively to go out and
Speaker 1: you know, you'd love for the offense to finish that
Speaker 1: four minute drive and stay on the field and not
Speaker 1: give the ball back to Washington. But but overall, I
Speaker 1: just think it was a great team effort late in
Speaker 1: the game. What did the offense show you what how
Speaker 1: they play a little up and down. Um, you know,
Speaker 1: had some consistency early and then and then got away
Speaker 1: from that. We made some made some just some some
Speaker 1: dumb mistakes, really bonehead mistakes. Things that we've repped, you know,
Speaker 1: all the way back to OTAs and you know, those
Speaker 1: are the things that we've got to fix, got to correct. Uh.
Speaker 1: And then and then we picked out I thought the
Speaker 1: passing game, you know, Carson was very efficient to spread
Speaker 1: the ball around. You know, you look at uh, you know,
Speaker 1: several guys with eight targets and one with alerts and
Speaker 1: those guys and Tory had eight targets, all Shaan was seven.
Speaker 1: So the guys that we want to target the ball too,
Speaker 1: we were able to do that and spread it around. Um,
Speaker 1: we had opportunities down the field, which which is which
Speaker 1: is a bright spot. You know, we didn't hit on
Speaker 1: uh but one, but uh you know, took some took
Speaker 1: some opportunities, some shots, and those are those are some
Speaker 1: bright spots we can we can build off of. You
Speaker 1: did not hesitate Doug to come out of the gates
Speaker 1: fast and aggressively with the big ball. To Tory, why
Speaker 1: that call first play of the game, Well, just kind
Speaker 1: of going back and and and and study in Washington
Speaker 1: and uh Monusky over the years and just understanding how
Speaker 1: they how he starts games. And you know, and I
Speaker 1: just wanted to come out and be aggressive early with
Speaker 1: with our play call and with our guys and just
Speaker 1: show the confidence that I have in them. And um,
Speaker 1: we just missed, you know, slightly under thrown ball, but
Speaker 1: we came back and missed again, and you know, but
Speaker 1: those are things that we're capable of doing now, and
Speaker 1: we want to be able to back defenses up and
Speaker 1: and h to come out and do that first play
Speaker 1: the game just shows that that we'll have more of
Speaker 1: those opportunities in these next next few games. Thirteen nothing
Speaker 1: leading you try that kind of that lateral to Nelson,
Speaker 1: can you explain what that play was supposed to be
Speaker 1: supposed to be a run, supposed to be a run,
Speaker 1: um and as designed as a run, and that's just
Speaker 1: an advantage throw for the quarterback. And and really based
Speaker 1: on a man's own man's own indicator, and they gave
Speaker 1: his own and so it was as an opportunity. Um.
Speaker 1: You know, it wasn't perfect. Obviously, it was a lateral
Speaker 1: and it's even in practice we always practice it downhill,
Speaker 1: throw it downhill. Um, and it was. It was a
Speaker 1: mistake offensively. Um, So we'll learn from it. We'll move
Speaker 1: on from it and uh correct it moving moving forward.
Speaker 1: What you need to do really to get that run
Speaker 1: game where you want it to be, Dug, it's close,
Speaker 1: it's close. You know, we just got a sustained blox. Uh,
Speaker 1: you know, just gotta no leverage. Understand fronts, understand you
Speaker 1: know where the backers are, make those necessary adjustments in game,
Speaker 1: and and and just keep keep fighting, keep plugging. The
Speaker 1: run game was there. We had some potentially big runs
Speaker 1: in this game, but we just came up a little
Speaker 1: bit short on some execution and just just finishing the block, Doug.
Speaker 1: This game, this win, this first one was it's clearly
Speaker 1: a three phase win. Special teams came up huge defense dominance.
Speaker 1: This is you come back on Monday and Tuesday here
Speaker 1: and the locker room, there's just a vibe here. Everybody
Speaker 1: really feels like they can contribute, which is, I guess
Speaker 1: exactly the feeling you want, exactly what you want. And
Speaker 1: it's got to be three phases. You know, we talk
Speaker 1: about it all the time, but now we know too
Speaker 1: that sometimes it's got to be the defense stepping up.
Speaker 1: Maybe that's the offense one week, and you know, we
Speaker 1: know that the special teams. You know, I talk about
Speaker 1: field position all the time. And Donnie Jones had a
Speaker 1: punt to the one yard line and you know the
Speaker 1: defense took the ball away four times, and you know
Speaker 1: things like that. So you know, we we we You
Speaker 1: never know which unit's gonna step up. It was just
Speaker 1: this past week it was great to see all three
Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs. Special spot for you going back to
Speaker 1: Arrowhead as a head coach, what does it mean to you? Oh,
Speaker 1: it's a special place obviously, and then spent three years
Speaker 1: and it's a it's a loud place. Um. I still
Speaker 1: think they hold the world record for the for the
Speaker 1: loudest outdoor stadium. So we gotta we gotta work cut
Speaker 1: out for us. This is uh, as we know, an
Speaker 1: Andy Reid coach team, and they're gonna be well disciplined,
Speaker 1: well prepared, uh, and we gotta be likewise. Were they
Speaker 1: for real on Thursday against the Patriots? They were, Uh,
Speaker 1: that's the that's the Kansas City good. Um. You know what. Um,
Speaker 1: I've seen it. You know, I've been there, I've seen it.
Speaker 1: When they can play like that. And Alex Smith was
Speaker 1: very efficient. He's not going to make the big mistake.
Speaker 1: He's not gonna you know, turn the ball over. Um.
Speaker 1: And and they've got some speed at the at the
Speaker 1: skill spot. So Tyreek Hill is somebody that we got
Speaker 1: to be accounted for. You know, Kelsey is a tight
Speaker 1: end that's very athletic, can run, good route runner and
Speaker 1: you know, so they got weapons on offense and that
Speaker 1: run game can can really feed and get going. So
Speaker 1: and then defensively, you know, a Coach Sutton team is
Speaker 1: again a well disciplined team. They're They're not going to
Speaker 1: present a lot of things to you. It's going to
Speaker 1: be a very simple game plan. But at the same time,
Speaker 1: they get after the quarterback man, it would be so
Speaker 1: huge two straight games in hostile environments. Go out and
Speaker 1: win those two games and come back to Philly would
Speaker 1: be a gigantic way to start the season. It'd be
Speaker 1: a great way, you know, to two road uh, two
Speaker 1: road wins hopefully. Um. Like you said, in hostile loud stadiums. Um,
Speaker 1: and we just gotta you know, stay, keep stay the course,
Speaker 1: keep our poise, and we'll see what happens. Do you
Speaker 1: ever worry about Carson not being poised? Has he ever
Speaker 1: shown you that he's not poised? No? No, he's so,
Speaker 1: he's so under under control. Every everything is is very
Speaker 1: he's in command of everything. Um. And and that's for
Speaker 1: a second year player, a young quarterback in this league.
Speaker 1: That's a very special special trade to have. Big week ahead. Doug,
Speaker 1: good luck, Thank you, beat the Chiefs. Doug Peterson in studio.

Speaker 1: Eagles three sixty, David Glenn. We turn our attention now
Speaker 1: to our Santandre legend of the week. And nobody fits
Speaker 1: that description better I think than I greased, former Eagles linebacker,
Speaker 1: former Eagles Pro Bowl linebacker, now a staple in the
Speaker 1: sports media community here in Philadelphia. I guess let's start there,
Speaker 1: the transition from player to media member. Now you hear
Speaker 1: the fans. What has that experience been like for you?
Speaker 1: It's been everything I thought it would be. When I
Speaker 1: know years ago I thought about getting into this business
Speaker 1: when I first seven love with listening to sports radio
Speaker 1: on w I t uh. It's it's been Uh. I
Speaker 1: think it's a it's a great emotional ride for people
Speaker 1: like myself. I consider myself to be a fan as well,
Speaker 1: and I've always enjoyed the the interaction between uh quote
Speaker 1: unquote analysts and the fans. I think that you get
Speaker 1: a raw, honest, uh emotional field reaction from this fan base.
Speaker 1: It's the reason why I love the fan base so much,
Speaker 1: and it makes the job fun to do. Now. We
Speaker 1: obviously have tough times when the teams aren't doing very well,
Speaker 1: and you gotta got a lot of criticism being heaped
Speaker 1: upon players and coaches and fun offices in this town.
Speaker 1: But I've always felt that that's just displays the level
Speaker 1: of passionate fan base has for its sports team in
Speaker 1: this in this town. I know it's the Northeast thing Boston,
Speaker 1: New York, uh disphiliarium, but I take no one doesn't
Speaker 1: like we do it here uh in the Delaware Valley.
Speaker 1: And given the first week you've been well, I you've
Speaker 1: been part either as a player or as a broadcast
Speaker 1: room was twenty of these opening days? What does it
Speaker 1: mean just when the team wins the first game of
Speaker 1: the year here as opposed that we're all going for
Speaker 1: this week with a loss. It's huge. I mean it's huge.
Speaker 1: Psychologically for everyone. I mean Gland days of guys, I've
Speaker 1: been around your long time days. You're from this area.
Speaker 1: So the difference between this city's emotionals and this mental
Speaker 1: state on Monday or Tuesday based on whenever that team
Speaker 1: playing them, whether they want to lose. I mean, it's
Speaker 1: one hundred and eighty degrees away from each other. And
Speaker 1: so to get a win the opening week of the
Speaker 1: Eagle season, it's big time. It allows us to continue
Speaker 1: to believe that this is going to be our year.
Speaker 1: And every team in every NFL city feels that way
Speaker 1: at the beginning of the year. But I tell you
Speaker 1: there are sixteen cities that aren't very happy at the
Speaker 1: results of Week one in the NFL, and there are
Speaker 1: sixteen cities with we are part of where we are
Speaker 1: elated about where our team is that and we're happy
Speaker 1: to get off on a good start this week. It's
Speaker 1: it's Andy Reid on the other sideline once again, and
Speaker 1: we all know that you have a great relationship with Andy.
Speaker 1: The Chiefs opened the season in spectacular fashion, beating the
Speaker 1: New England Patriots. Typical of an Andy Reid team to
Speaker 1: come out of the gates smoking. Now he's got a
Speaker 1: mini bye week. We all know how good he is
Speaker 1: after a bye week, big deal for you. I Number
Speaker 1: one to play Andy Reid is that's still a big
Speaker 1: story here. And then number two, how real are the
Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs? Oh yeah, and that's why's still a
Speaker 1: real story now. The Andy was out there losing every
Speaker 1: game and it was on a hot seat partial It
Speaker 1: may not mean as much to us, but obviously having
Speaker 1: the winning this coach in team history over there doing
Speaker 1: well with another team and not surprised at all, we
Speaker 1: know how fair that a coach he is, that he
Speaker 1: had the Kansas City chief in contingent year in the
Speaker 1: year out and didn't get off to the to the
Speaker 1: old season opener against New England. I think that surprised
Speaker 1: everyone just how explosive Kansas City was. So we had
Speaker 1: a chance to watch that. Everyone did around the league.
Speaker 1: They looked like a different team. Alex Smith certainly looked
Speaker 1: like he's willing to put the ball down the field.
Speaker 1: Tyrek Hill one of the most electrifying players in the league.
Speaker 1: H they got our attention, They got our attention, and
Speaker 1: uh yeah, I think it makes the games that much
Speaker 1: more meaningful because, uh we here field that Andy has
Speaker 1: a good team out there. We know he's a good coach,
Speaker 1: and you know, it's like you want to do well
Speaker 1: when you're going up against one of your extions and
Speaker 1: that's our ex coach and we're bringing our team into town.
Speaker 1: There are a lot of storylines that connect each other.
Speaker 1: We did with the complization and the coaching staff m
Speaker 1: and coming out of there with a victory in a
Speaker 1: place that is very tough to get a win. Although
Speaker 1: correct me if I'm wrong, guys, I think at the
Speaker 1: time we've been out there, we won those games, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: only one loss out there in four games. This is
Speaker 1: the fifth time they've played an Arrowhead. Yeah, so you know,
Speaker 1: it's a tough place to get a win, and hopefully
Speaker 1: we can ten year old over winning ways that we've
Speaker 1: had out there recently. But yeah, I had no doubt
Speaker 1: about it, Dave. It's it's a big game for us
Speaker 1: for several reasons. And having Andy as the coach over
Speaker 1: there and his team looking like one of the feather
Speaker 1: teams in the league right now, I think that makes
Speaker 1: it an even bigger game because then we're gonna get
Speaker 1: a portion of a fan base that said poll, would
Speaker 1: you rather have Andy Reid is the head coach here still,
Speaker 1: so you know that's gonna be a show top. Yeah,
Speaker 1: So so let's stay with that just a little bit.
Speaker 1: Doug knows Andy played for him, coach for him. You know,
Speaker 1: both of these guys very well. Given that two part question,
Speaker 1: what is something that as Doug develops as a coach
Speaker 1: you really think he has or should take from Andy Reid?
Speaker 1: And maybe I can area where you think Doug should
Speaker 1: differentiate himself from Andy. First thing I've noticed that he's
Speaker 1: taken from Andy Reid, and that's the personable relationships with
Speaker 1: the players, you know, and Andy found a way to
Speaker 1: build those sort of bridges with his players without being
Speaker 1: a summer player or coming in with a impeccable resume,
Speaker 1: so to speak. He was looted of an unknown. But
Speaker 1: I think the way that he brought us together and
Speaker 1: the way that he lands and he's eventually became one
Speaker 1: of those players coaches where players just love to play
Speaker 1: for him, and he understands the importance of having those
Speaker 1: relationships with his players. You know, there's a fine line
Speaker 1: that between coach and player, but he still puts an
Speaker 1: emphasis on having that trust amongst his players and giving
Speaker 1: his players ownership up the team. So I recognized that
Speaker 1: early in dust coaching career, and I think that's going
Speaker 1: to carry him a long way. And then the things
Speaker 1: that you, I guess you would maybe want to see
Speaker 1: him sort of separate himself Tom with coach Frees, I
Speaker 1: guess it would be, uh, thanks, thanks for the health days.
Speaker 1: Obviously you wanted to go ahead and be the one
Speaker 1: who leads us to winning the Super Bowl. But but
Speaker 1: but I would even say this, I would say being
Speaker 1: a little flexible, being being a little flexible in the
Speaker 1: way that you do things, and the willingness to incorporate
Speaker 1: others with what you're doing. I think that's gonna carry
Speaker 1: does a long way as well. I mean, you're talking
Speaker 1: about a little bit of different eras of coaching for
Speaker 1: when Handy started with us to even where Handy is
Speaker 1: at right now he and Doug. In this era of football,
Speaker 1: I think coaches approach to the game has to change
Speaker 1: a little bit. Players are certainly a lot more knowledgeable
Speaker 1: about the game of football, and not only that, they're
Speaker 1: also knowledgeable as to what they mean to the game
Speaker 1: of football. And so it's not like you know twenty
Speaker 1: thirty years ago, winning was pretty much you do it
Speaker 1: because I said do it. Nowadays, players want to know
Speaker 1: why you want me to do it that way, and
Speaker 1: coaches had to be willing to be able to explain
Speaker 1: themselves to a degree. Grease, we thank you for joining
Speaker 1: us so much. On Eagles three sixty, I Grease our
Speaker 1: santandair legend of the week. Time now Glenn to take
Speaker 1: a look at our Amirossos on the menu. Take a

Speaker 1: here what we'll take to win this game? I know
Speaker 1: there are many many storylines that will be explored throughout
Speaker 1: the week here. I think it's a fun week of football. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's a fun weekend. It's a real challenging week. I
Speaker 1: did not know that Andy Reid's team was going to
Speaker 1: be that good opening week going. Are they England? Well
Speaker 1: that's a great point and we will find out. Andy
Speaker 1: off the bye is always a thing. We saw how
Speaker 1: good he was there. He got up from the Thursday
Speaker 1: this Sunday. The flip side of that is I believe
Speaker 1: in the eb and flow. Maybe after week they're smelling
Speaker 1: themselves a little bit. Gives the Eagles the opportunity Eagles
Speaker 1: will This is the most obvious thing I'll ever say, Tod,
Speaker 1: but it's really true. Have to play flawless, right, no turnovers,
Speaker 1: no breakdowns. You do that. You got the talent to
Speaker 1: beat him. But it's a tough tax. No false starts,
Speaker 1: get a lead, rush the quarterback, protect Carson Wentz, and
Speaker 1: get the running game going something we haven't seen nice. Right. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so it's a tough one. And listen, both teams have injuries.
Speaker 1: How will the coaching staffs exploit those injuries? All Right,
Speaker 1: it's only Tuesday. Get a long way to go. A
Speaker 1: lot of talking to do between now and Sunday, and
Speaker 1: you're just the guy to do it. Thanks man, I'll

Speaker 1: Eagles Day.
