It's Eagles three sixty on this Monday, after 0:00:37.280 --> 0:00:39.199 the big loss of the Dallas Cowboys, were welcome you 0:00:39.240 --> 0:00:42.960 to the Novercare Complex. Eagles insider Dave Spidero the Hall 0:00:43.000 --> 0:00:45.839 of Famer. Brian Westberku is a nominee for the Pro 0:00:45.960 --> 0:00:48.400 Football Hall of Fame and finalists. Congratulations, Thank you very 0:00:48.440 --> 0:00:51.159 much so we can smile it out something today. One 0:00:51.200 --> 0:00:53.520 day after losing to the Dallas Cowboys. Brian some thoughts 0:00:53.760 --> 0:00:56.320 on what happened at Lincoln Financial Field on Sunday. We 0:00:56.400 --> 0:00:59.200 just need a lot of things to happen for us. 0:00:59.240 --> 0:01:01.440 We need to exec a lot better. We need our 0:01:02.040 --> 0:01:04.240 offense to try to figure things out. We need guys 0:01:04.240 --> 0:01:06.000 to block a lot better. We need to get the 0:01:06.080 --> 0:01:09.000 run established defense. But we still have some work as well. 0:01:09.120 --> 0:01:10.720 The front seven needs to find a way to get 0:01:10.760 --> 0:01:13.759 some more penetration to get to the quarterback and maybe 0:01:13.800 --> 0:01:15.600 we have to be able to cover in a secondary. Yeah, 0:01:15.640 --> 0:01:18.720 and the special teams giving up another big play block 0:01:18.840 --> 0:01:21.560 punt returned for a touchdown over two for the special 0:01:21.560 --> 0:01:23.760 teams in two games this season. So it is a 0:01:23.800 --> 0:01:27.039 significant hole for the Philadelphia Eagles. We will talk a 0:01:27.040 --> 0:01:29.680 little later on about a season in the past where 0:01:29.720 --> 0:01:31.760 the Eagles started this way and dug their way out 0:01:31.760 --> 0:01:34.919 of it and made the NFU Championship game that season. 0:01:34.959 --> 0:01:37.520 But a long way to go between now and then. 0:01:37.760 --> 0:01:41.080 Some significant updates here Chip Kelly meeting the media today. 0:01:41.160 --> 0:01:45.679 Let's go out to Alex Smith our Eagles three sixty update, injuries, 0:01:45.760 --> 0:01:48.400 and a whole lot more. Hi everyone, Alex Smith here 0:01:48.440 --> 0:01:51.480 with your three sixty update, presented by Sports Authority. No 0:01:51.600 --> 0:01:54.000 practice here at the Novicare Complex today for the Eagles, 0:01:54.000 --> 0:01:55.960 but it was a chance for the team to look 0:01:55.960 --> 0:01:58.720 back at the film from yesterday's disappointing twenty to ten 0:01:58.800 --> 0:02:01.360 loss the hands of the Dallas Cowboys. Today, head coach 0:02:01.440 --> 0:02:03.880 Chip Kelly met with the media explaining what went wrong 0:02:04.040 --> 0:02:06.600 in yesterday's defeat, and according to the head coach, it 0:02:06.640 --> 0:02:09.760 all starts up front with the lack of a running game. Now, 0:02:09.800 --> 0:02:11.120 I mean we didn't run a lot of plays, but 0:02:11.160 --> 0:02:15.600 I mean we ran sweep from running back on one 0:02:15.600 --> 0:02:17.720 side of the quarterback. We ran sweep from running back 0:02:17.760 --> 0:02:19.960 on the same side as a quarterback. So we ran 0:02:20.040 --> 0:02:22.600 sweep with motion, you know, a couple of three different 0:02:22.600 --> 0:02:24.440 ways we were running it. But we still didn't block 0:02:24.480 --> 0:02:26.000 them up front, So I don't think that's how we 0:02:26.000 --> 0:02:28.320 were handing it out or what. And the formations we 0:02:28.320 --> 0:02:29.840 were running them out him, I think we're you know, 0:02:29.840 --> 0:02:32.400 they were all varied, but we still didn't The biggest 0:02:32.400 --> 0:02:35.200 thing is we didn't stop penetration all night, all night long, 0:02:35.360 --> 0:02:38.280 especially in the ring games. The Eagles defense was on 0:02:38.320 --> 0:02:41.120 the field for eighty five plays and yesterday's lost to Dallas. 0:02:41.320 --> 0:02:43.880 And while Kelly explained that time possession doesn't really matter 0:02:43.880 --> 0:02:46.399 to him the coaching staff, the number of plays run 0:02:46.880 --> 0:02:49.080 does matter. I think it was a factor. They were 0:02:49.080 --> 0:02:51.120 on the field for eighty five snaps. You know, I 0:02:51.120 --> 0:02:55.400 think that's a byproduct of us not moving the ball offensively. 0:02:55.440 --> 0:02:57.560 So we weren't on the field offensively, and that's a 0:02:58.240 --> 0:03:00.080 you know, I'm not a time of possession guy, but 0:03:00.120 --> 0:03:01.600 I am a snap guy. You know, you look at 0:03:01.600 --> 0:03:04.240 the Atlanta game, who was sixty eight seventy. You know, 0:03:04.240 --> 0:03:06.200 that's an even football game, both sides of the ball. 0:03:06.240 --> 0:03:08.360 Everybody played the kind of the same amount. But this 0:03:08.400 --> 0:03:11.000 one was an eighty five sixty game. You know that 0:03:11.440 --> 0:03:13.760 that can't happen. And that's where our offense has to 0:03:13.760 --> 0:03:15.800 be able to help our defense out by we need 0:03:15.840 --> 0:03:17.720 to continue drives and we can't go three and out. 0:03:17.800 --> 0:03:21.079 So Kelly also explained that he is very confident in 0:03:21.080 --> 0:03:24.040 the Eagles quarterback Sam Bradford after a shaky performance and 0:03:24.080 --> 0:03:26.560 while Bradford hasn't really been able to get anything completed 0:03:26.600 --> 0:03:29.600 over the top of opposing defenses, Kelly once again stated 0:03:29.639 --> 0:03:31.679 that that has everything to do with the Eagles lack 0:03:31.720 --> 0:03:33.359 of a run game, you know, and you've got to 0:03:33.440 --> 0:03:35.800 establish a run so that that they have to commit 0:03:35.840 --> 0:03:37.480 more people to the run right now. Right now, we 0:03:37.480 --> 0:03:38.960 haven't done anything in the run game where a lot 0:03:38.960 --> 0:03:40.920 of times we saw it, we saw all single higher 0:03:40.920 --> 0:03:43.400 two high safeties and those safeties were not involved in 0:03:43.400 --> 0:03:44.960 the run game at all because they didn't have to 0:03:45.000 --> 0:03:46.320 be in the run game at all. So I think, 0:03:46.560 --> 0:03:47.880 you know, it kind of goes hand in hand. When 0:03:47.880 --> 0:03:50.160 you start to run the football, well, you need to 0:03:50.200 --> 0:03:51.920 now take people from deep and bring them up a 0:03:51.920 --> 0:03:53.720 little bit closer to the line of scrimmage. When that happens, 0:03:53.760 --> 0:03:55.160 now you have an opportunity to throw the ball over 0:03:55.240 --> 0:03:58.280 the top. Kelly explained that there is no injury update 0:03:58.320 --> 0:04:01.400 at this time on linebackers Key Alonzo and Michael Kendricks, 0:04:01.560 --> 0:04:03.480 but be sure to keep it right here on Philadelphia 0:04:03.480 --> 0:04:06.920 Eagles dot com for the latest word on their health status.

Ahead in the show, we 0:04:18.760 --> 0:04:21.640 take a look at some positions that need to be 0:04:21.680 --> 0:04:25.360 improved for the Philadelphia Eagles, not just individuals, but very 0:04:25.480 --> 0:04:29.280 significant spots on this football team. Players need to step up. 0:04:29.600 --> 0:04:32.200 We also take a look at around the league. Not 0:04:32.320 --> 0:04:34.239 everybody's doing all that well. There's a bunch of teams 0:04:34.240 --> 0:04:37.160 that are O and two that still have high expectations. 0:04:37.360 --> 0:04:40.320 But when we returned Eagles three sixty, Brian and I 0:04:40.320 --> 0:04:43.320 are going to talk about what went right and what 0:04:43.440 --> 0:04:46.599 went wrong for the Eagles in their NFC East opener 0:04:46.880 --> 0:04:54.240 twenty to ten loss to those hated Dallas Cowboys.

You can look at them. 0:05:31.520 --> 0:05:33.120 May nobody wants to buy tickets from a guy on 0:05:33.160 --> 0:05:40.840 the street. I don't understand. I sept to Philly.

The bus, the trolley, the train, Jefferson Station, 0:05:45.440 --> 0:05:48.679 Airport line, sixty nine Street, Broad Street to the game, 0:05:50.000 --> 0:05:54.240 pay all the Sheron Hill Chestnut Hill Regional Rail.

On game days, 0:05:57.080 --> 0:06:00.960 I Lovedega to the movie, to my part play Spring Garden, 0:06:01.360 --> 0:06:14.880 Late Night, West Philly, South Philly. A wave of game 0:06:14.960 --> 0:06:18.240 day excitement is rolling into Duncan taste the new tailgate 0:06:18.360 --> 0:06:22.480 breakfast sandwich stacked with smoked sausage, fire roasted peppers, and onions. 0:06:22.520 --> 0:06:29.080 America runs on Duncan we welcome you backat Eagles three 0:06:29.200 --> 0:06:32.800 sixty Dave Spadaro Brian Westbrook reviewing the Eagles lost to 0:06:32.800 --> 0:06:35.839 the Dallas Cowboys. Let's start with some bright spots. You 0:06:35.880 --> 0:06:38.640 got any you know, there were a few bright spots. 0:06:38.640 --> 0:06:42.559 I think Defensively, the front seven did a pretty decent 0:06:42.640 --> 0:06:45.719 job eliminating some of the mistakes that they made early 0:06:45.760 --> 0:06:47.320 in the game. And for a team that was on 0:06:47.360 --> 0:06:49.640 the field, the defenses out of the ball for over 0:06:49.760 --> 0:06:52.200 forty minutes, I think they did an okay job. There's 0:06:52.240 --> 0:06:54.440 still some areas that they can improve, and that's really 0:06:54.480 --> 0:06:56.160 it from the bright spots. The other one that I 0:06:56.240 --> 0:06:59.920 would say is the injury to Tony Romo now gives 0:07:00.160 --> 0:07:04.400 this NFC East a wide open look. The Cowboys without Romo, 0:07:04.440 --> 0:07:06.840 without Dez Bryant for likely up to two months, if 0:07:06.880 --> 0:07:09.880 not longer. The Redskins at one and one, the Giants 0:07:09.920 --> 0:07:12.840 have blown two double digit leads in the fourth quarter 0:07:12.920 --> 0:07:17.120 there and two, So maybe, you know, if Eagles get 0:07:17.120 --> 0:07:19.680 going here against the Jets, turn things around. And let's 0:07:19.680 --> 0:07:22.200 harken back to the two thousand and three Eagles season 0:07:22.840 --> 0:07:26.520 loss and Lincoln Financial Field and the opener there against 0:07:26.520 --> 0:07:29.520 Tampa Bay, a blowout loss to New England on the 0:07:29.600 --> 0:07:33.520 road at Buffalo, the airplane loses altitude and this season 0:07:33.560 --> 0:07:35.120 turned around and you were part of it. How did 0:07:35.160 --> 0:07:37.880 it happen? You know? I think they started with the 0:07:38.160 --> 0:07:42.520 airplane losing a lot of altitude. Guys were panicking, stewardess 0:07:42.560 --> 0:07:45.560 were yelling and screaming and crying. But in that football game, 0:07:45.560 --> 0:07:47.560 we didn't play a great game. We got a couple 0:07:47.560 --> 0:07:49.520 of good individual plays that towards the end of the 0:07:49.560 --> 0:07:51.600 game we found a way to win. I think, just 0:07:51.720 --> 0:07:54.400 like this football team, you have to your big players, 0:07:54.400 --> 0:07:58.400 your money guys, DeMarco Mury, your Nelson Aguila, you're Jordan Matthews. 0:07:58.520 --> 0:07:59.960 They had to step up and find a way to 0:08:00.120 --> 0:08:03.640 make a play, make that play where they haven't done that. 0:08:03.680 --> 0:08:05.520 But in that game, I think a lot of guys 0:08:05.520 --> 0:08:08.160 are stepped up. That's what it was. The group effort 0:08:08.160 --> 0:08:11.280 came together, the core guys came together and they played. Well. 0:08:11.320 --> 0:08:13.120 That's what they have to do a right Brian. Yesterday 0:08:13.160 --> 0:08:15.880 the Eagles and the Cowboys. The running game is just 0:08:16.080 --> 0:08:20.160 going nowhere, going backwards. In fact, what is happening with 0:08:20.200 --> 0:08:22.720 this running game? Well, you have to have effective line play. 0:08:22.840 --> 0:08:26.280 When you win games, we winning the trenches, and right 0:08:26.320 --> 0:08:29.040 now they're not winning in the trenches. Too much penetration 0:08:29.160 --> 0:08:32.000 from tackle to tackle, including the tight end. Right now, 0:08:32.040 --> 0:08:35.120 they're not allowing themselves any chances, and so DeMarco Murray 0:08:35.200 --> 0:08:37.599 can't get on track because the offensive line is not 0:08:37.640 --> 0:08:40.400 allowing him the opportunity. Too much penetration in the back 0:08:40.440 --> 0:08:43.120 they will ruining any running game. Have defenses kind of 0:08:43.160 --> 0:08:47.360 correctly anticipated what's coming in a sense figured out what 0:08:47.400 --> 0:08:49.080 this offense is all about. But I don't know if 0:08:49.080 --> 0:08:50.880 they figured it out. I just think that at this 0:08:50.960 --> 0:08:53.839 point they're telling all of their defensive linements just don't 0:08:53.880 --> 0:08:56.880 worry about two gapping, Just get penetration. Go straight up 0:08:56.880 --> 0:08:58.760 the field. And if you have a center pulling and 0:08:58.840 --> 0:09:01.560 your guards not able to get down fast enough to 0:09:01.600 --> 0:09:04.120 get that guy that's penetrating, that's going to cause problems 0:09:04.120 --> 0:09:05.840 in the backfield. Those are the guys that are making 0:09:05.840 --> 0:09:08.080 them play. So is it a thing where Jeff Stoutlin 0:09:08.160 --> 0:09:10.120 says we're gonna change up the way we block it 0:09:10.240 --> 0:09:12.640 up front? You know, it's hard to change schemes in 0:09:12.640 --> 0:09:15.080 the middle of the season, early on in the season, 0:09:15.240 --> 0:09:17.080 But I think at this point you have to start 0:09:17.160 --> 0:09:19.400 doing things a little bit different. Instead of leaving your 0:09:19.440 --> 0:09:21.960 tight end on the island with defensive end, you might 0:09:22.000 --> 0:09:23.600 have to help with the top with just a bit 0:09:23.760 --> 0:09:26.720 instead of leaving starting your center out starting to pull 0:09:26.880 --> 0:09:28.920 right after he snaps the ball. Maybe he puts a 0:09:29.040 --> 0:09:32.240 hand on this guy before he leaves that situation, and 0:09:32.280 --> 0:09:33.920 that's going to help the guards out of an awful lot. 0:09:34.080 --> 0:09:38.280 Seventy yards rushing for the Eagles in two games and 0:09:38.360 --> 0:09:42.400 without the run game, Brian Sam Bradford really is ineffective. 0:09:42.760 --> 0:09:46.520 We saw on Sunday a confused looking Bradford, a couple 0:09:46.559 --> 0:09:49.880 of interceptions, a fumble on a bad staff from Jason Kelsey, 0:09:49.920 --> 0:09:53.280 a huge, huge turnover in the red zone. So this 0:09:53.760 --> 0:09:56.439 offense starts with the run game. If that's not going anywhere, 0:09:56.679 --> 0:10:00.480 the passing game getting nothing going down the field, what's 0:10:00.480 --> 0:10:03.000 your solution to fix that? Well, of course you start 0:10:03.080 --> 0:10:05.280 up from again. You need that protection, but I think 0:10:05.280 --> 0:10:07.839 that run game, getting that timpo going, that's the thing 0:10:07.880 --> 0:10:09.800 that you need. And right now they don't have their 0:10:09.880 --> 0:10:12.520 run game. Of course you want to start getting some quick, 0:10:12.559 --> 0:10:15.840 easy passes to build confidence in your quarterback. Sam Bradford. 0:10:15.960 --> 0:10:18.000 But they have to find a way to get those things. 0:10:18.040 --> 0:10:20.160 That means the receivers have to get open. That means 0:10:20.160 --> 0:10:23.000 he needs time to develop those plays. Right now, neither 0:10:23.040 --> 0:10:25.080 one of those things are happening. One year ago, the 0:10:25.080 --> 0:10:29.280 Eagles leading the NFL in special teams play, and in fact, 0:10:29.280 --> 0:10:31.600 the Eagles winning games because of their special teams in 0:10:31.640 --> 0:10:34.960 twenty fourteen hasn't been the case. Through two games this year, 0:10:35.200 --> 0:10:37.200 the Eagles have given up some big plays. Lost the 0:10:37.520 --> 0:10:40.680 hidden yardage battle against Atlanta, and then on Sunday, a 0:10:40.800 --> 0:10:43.240 big play early in the second half, a blocked punt 0:10:43.280 --> 0:10:47.559 return for a touchdown, the Cowboys executing it perfectly over 0:10:47.760 --> 0:10:51.080 John Dornboss and Brian Brayman. They timed it upright and 0:10:51.120 --> 0:10:54.280 they made the big play blocking Donnie Jones punt. Brian. 0:10:54.360 --> 0:10:56.360 We kind of took for granted if these special teams 0:10:56.360 --> 0:10:58.960 would be even better this year, a boy. Coaches in 0:10:58.960 --> 0:11:01.040 the league are pretty smart. Yeah, they're very smart. And 0:11:01.200 --> 0:11:04.560 every year you're putting stuff one film that can possibly 0:11:04.640 --> 0:11:06.960 be used by other staffs so they can defeat you. 0:11:07.000 --> 0:11:09.719 And so every year you have to be excellent in 0:11:09.800 --> 0:11:12.920 your personnel, but you have to be excellent in your 0:11:13.000 --> 0:11:16.239 execution and right now they're not excellent in your execution 0:11:16.400 --> 0:11:19.160 and punt team. All it is is about counting the numbers, 0:11:19.360 --> 0:11:22.000 understanding who your guy is and blocking that guy. You 0:11:22.040 --> 0:11:24.000 also understand that they're going to run some stunts. They're 0:11:24.000 --> 0:11:26.040 gonna try to pick the center, pick the guard on 0:11:26.120 --> 0:11:28.400 those types of situations, and you have to have somebody 0:11:28.480 --> 0:11:30.840 to pick that up. Their personal protector has to help out. 0:11:31.200 --> 0:11:34.199 So not a lot went right for the Eagles on Sunday. 0:11:34.240 --> 0:11:37.960 One thing that was okay the Eagles in past defense, 0:11:38.040 --> 0:11:40.520 and we go to our All twenty two review with 0:11:40.720 --> 0:11:44.240 NFL Film Senior producer Greg Cosell. He talks about a 0:11:44.280 --> 0:11:48.160 play Damiko Ryan's made in the end zone, among others 0:11:48.600 --> 0:11:53.080 that kind of highlights in the past defense. Yesterday, the 0:11:53.120 --> 0:11:56.480 Eagles lost to the Cowboys in a disappointing game, but 0:11:56.600 --> 0:11:59.680 their defense really stood out. Let me show you a 0:11:59.720 --> 0:12:02.960 few of the plays that really impressed me. This was 0:12:03.000 --> 0:12:06.319 another outstanding play by the Eagles defense in the first 0:12:06.400 --> 0:12:09.480 quarter and it's saved a touchdown. Now, I want to 0:12:09.480 --> 0:12:12.320 show you the design of the play from the Cowboys perspective. 0:12:12.520 --> 0:12:15.439 It's play action in the backfield and Tony Romo is 0:12:15.480 --> 0:12:18.400 trying to get the ball right here to Jason Witten, 0:12:18.559 --> 0:12:21.400 who's going to leak behind the defense, because the whole 0:12:21.440 --> 0:12:24.280 idea is for the play action to impact a Miko 0:12:24.480 --> 0:12:28.800 Ryans who's aligned over Witten. So Ryan steps forward and 0:12:28.960 --> 0:12:31.840 Witten gets behind him and it's an easy touchdown. But 0:12:31.960 --> 0:12:35.800 you know who really made this play Fletcher Cox right here. 0:12:36.280 --> 0:12:39.520 Fletcher Cox got in quick, and their timing and this 0:12:39.679 --> 0:12:43.400 needed to be very precise, and Romo's timing was off 0:12:43.440 --> 0:12:45.920 and he was late with his throw. Let's clear the 0:12:45.960 --> 0:12:48.559 screen and see what happens as we run this play. 0:12:50.679 --> 0:12:53.160 Look at Cox get in quickly. Romo need to plan 0:12:53.240 --> 0:12:56.680 early and deliver. He could not. Ryan's was able to 0:12:56.720 --> 0:12:59.280 recover and make a terrific play in the end zone 0:12:59.400 --> 0:13:04.280 to save it touchdown. This was the very last play 0:13:04.320 --> 0:13:06.760 from scrimmage in the first half. At this point, the 0:13:06.800 --> 0:13:10.400 Cowboys led three to nothing. Tony Romo needed to go 0:13:10.480 --> 0:13:12.320 to the end zone here or they would not be 0:13:12.360 --> 0:13:14.880 time for a field goal. Now what Romo wanted here 0:13:15.000 --> 0:13:18.400 was his big tight end Escobar aligned right here. He's 0:13:18.440 --> 0:13:22.000 matched on Nolan Carroll the corner. That's who Romo wanted 0:13:22.000 --> 0:13:25.280 to get the ball to now Chris Maragos, who's right here. 0:13:25.559 --> 0:13:29.439 He initially started close to the line of scrimmage. Maragos 0:13:29.480 --> 0:13:32.040 did a really good job. He kind of baited Romo 0:13:32.240 --> 0:13:34.240 and you'll see as the play starts and we clear 0:13:34.320 --> 0:13:37.240 the screen that he dropped out and took away the 0:13:37.360 --> 0:13:41.640 inside route by Escobar. Beautifully done. Romo forced to come 0:13:41.679 --> 0:13:43.520 off that he had to get the ball to the 0:13:43.600 --> 0:13:47.800 end zone. He threw an incompletion, an excellent job by Maragos, 0:13:48.360 --> 0:13:50.640 and the Cowboys were forced to kick a field goal. 0:13:51.679 --> 0:13:55.520 Thanks so much, Greg. Well being oh and two, it stinks. 0:13:55.679 --> 0:13:57.520 We all agree with that. You agree with that, We 0:13:57.559 --> 0:13:59.400 agree with that, everybody in the building agrees with that. 0:14:00.040 --> 0:14:01.400 But it is not the end of the world. We 0:14:01.480 --> 0:14:03.319 talked about it earlier two thousand and three of the 0:14:03.360 --> 0:14:06.960 Eagles reaching the NFC Championship game after starting oh and two, 0:14:06.960 --> 0:14:09.480 and if you look around the league, which will do 0:14:09.800 --> 0:14:13.520 when we return to Eagles three sixty and two.

This 0:16:07.200 --> 0:16:10.200 is Eagles three sixty Dave Spidero, Brian Westbrook, the Eagles 0:16:10.400 --> 0:16:14.160 and two looking for some good answers here this week 0:16:14.200 --> 0:16:16.240 against the Jets, oh and two around the league, Brian 0:16:16.320 --> 0:16:19.360 seven other teams, potentially eight other teams. If the Colts 0:16:19.400 --> 0:16:22.640 lose tonight O and two among them Seattle Detroit, a 0:16:22.640 --> 0:16:26.120 lot of people loving that team. The NFC's as you 0:16:26.200 --> 0:16:29.320 see it, is it wide open. I really do believe 0:16:29.360 --> 0:16:32.320 that NFC still is wide open when you think about it. 0:16:32.400 --> 0:16:34.720 That the Giants are o and two, that gives us 0:16:34.720 --> 0:16:37.280 a chance. There the Redskins, who we still don't really 0:16:37.280 --> 0:16:39.800 believe in our one to one, and then the Cowboys 0:16:39.840 --> 0:16:42.280 without Tony Romo, without Dez Brian are two and ow 0:16:42.280 --> 0:16:44.640 and so we believe that those teams right there will 0:16:44.680 --> 0:16:46.680 slip just a bit. That gives a lot of the 0:16:46.720 --> 0:16:49.880 opportunity for this Philadelphia Eagles football team. And I still 0:16:49.920 --> 0:16:52.120 think they have a lot of room ahead of them 0:16:52.200 --> 0:16:54.800 to continue to get better, to execute much better and 0:16:54.840 --> 0:16:57.960 perform their game plan. The Washington Redskins one and one 0:16:58.120 --> 0:17:01.040 leading the NFL in rushing Brian, so they have something 0:17:01.080 --> 0:17:04.119 to hang their hat on. Offensively, along with the defenses 0:17:04.119 --> 0:17:06.560 played well. Yeah, the rosters and riskans have played well. 0:17:06.760 --> 0:17:09.240 It kind of gone pass a RG three thing and 0:17:09.320 --> 0:17:11.719 now they're depending on their run game and their defense 0:17:11.760 --> 0:17:14.040 to win football games. And you've talked to any player, 0:17:14.200 --> 0:17:16.359 any analysts that you need a run game and you 0:17:16.400 --> 0:17:17.960 need a defense to play well, and that's what the 0:17:18.040 --> 0:17:20.880 Risks have low reform. How much can the Cowboys sustain 0:17:21.000 --> 0:17:25.960 without Tony Romo, without Dez Bryant, with Brandon Weedon at quarterback, 0:17:26.000 --> 0:17:30.160 with Joseph Randall at running back, without Randy Gregory. Greg 0:17:30.200 --> 0:17:32.440 Hardy is still out for two games the Cowboys two 0:17:32.480 --> 0:17:35.439 and oh, But you wonder how they can continue to 0:17:35.440 --> 0:17:39.080 win without so many key pieces. They're getting some great coaching, 0:17:39.280 --> 0:17:42.200 and they're playing really good physical defense. They're playing aggressive 0:17:42.280 --> 0:17:45.359 physical defense. But I'm a firm believer that no team 0:17:45.359 --> 0:17:47.960 in this NFL can win a lot of games and 0:17:48.080 --> 0:17:51.000 make it to the playoffs without a franchise type of quarterback. 0:17:51.040 --> 0:17:53.480 And Brandon Weeden is not that guy. I think Joseph 0:17:53.520 --> 0:17:55.960 Randall is actually going to be okay behind that offensive line, 0:17:56.080 --> 0:17:59.119 and that defense is still suspect in my mind, losing 0:17:59.160 --> 0:18:02.440 Gregory and some other players not getting hard and Scandrick 0:18:02.560 --> 0:18:04.920 as well, and so I still think that the Cowboys 0:18:05.000 --> 0:18:07.520 have a long way to go, especially with Brandon Wheaton 0:18:07.600 --> 0:18:10.360 at the helm of their offense. The Giants losing Eric 0:18:10.359 --> 0:18:13.119 Flowers with an injury of their left tackle on Sunday 0:18:13.160 --> 0:18:16.360 against the Falcons, and once again in position like they 0:18:16.400 --> 0:18:19.159 were a week earlier to beat the Cowboys. On Sunday, 0:18:19.200 --> 0:18:21.840 the Giants had the Atlanta Falcons on the ropes and 0:18:21.880 --> 0:18:24.359 couldn't hold on in the fourth quarters. So they're at 0:18:24.400 --> 0:18:27.200 O and two team. They play the Redskins this weekkey 0:18:27.600 --> 0:18:32.480 nfcast battle on Thursday night, and the Giants I think 0:18:32.520 --> 0:18:35.520 maybe maybe the most dangerous of the other three teams 0:18:35.520 --> 0:18:37.800 in the division. I think they get Victor Cruz back, 0:18:37.840 --> 0:18:41.040 They're very potent offensively, and the defense kind of playing 0:18:41.080 --> 0:18:44.520 some solid defense other than what happened yesterday with Julio Jones, Yeah, 0:18:44.600 --> 0:18:47.280 was the Giants. They're they're actually scoring points. They're finding 0:18:47.440 --> 0:18:49.679 a way to put the points on the board. However, 0:18:49.720 --> 0:18:51.919 they're not They're losing games that they bury in. So 0:18:51.960 --> 0:18:54.200 I think that's one of the things that can be corrected. 0:18:54.320 --> 0:18:56.920 And so truthfully, I'm not so worried about the risk 0:18:56.920 --> 0:18:58.680 because I'm not so worried about the Cowboys because of 0:18:58.680 --> 0:19:01.439 their quarterback situation. But the Giants are a team that 0:19:01.600 --> 0:19:04.040 if they get Cruis back and they continue to find 0:19:04.080 --> 0:19:06.080 a way to win, at the end, they have to 0:19:06.119 --> 0:19:08.760 just do one more quarter of football or even a 0:19:08.800 --> 0:19:11.359 half of a quarter of football. Then they they're actually 0:19:11.520 --> 0:19:13.600 two and oh instead of oh and two. That's a 0:19:13.600 --> 0:19:15.639 big difference. That's a team that I'm worried about just 0:19:15.680 --> 0:19:18.440 a bit there. But with all that being said, the 0:19:18.440 --> 0:19:21.680 Eagles in this division are still wide open. They're still 0:19:21.680 --> 0:19:24.000 a great opportunity. Even after owen two start for the 0:19:24.000 --> 0:19:27.280 bird we are just two games in people the Seahawks 0:19:27.520 --> 0:19:32.560 into the Ravens and two, the Saints in two, Detroit 0:19:32.840 --> 0:19:36.560 is in two, and Chicago and two with a quarterback 0:19:36.600 --> 0:19:39.200 with a hamstring full, so the Bears could be in 0:19:39.240 --> 0:19:40.879 a whole lot of trouble. We hope that's not the 0:19:40.920 --> 0:19:43.239 case here in Philadelphia now where the Eagles to turn 0:19:43.320 --> 0:19:45.080 things around. A lot of players and a lot of 0:19:45.160 --> 0:19:48.320 positions have to turn it around. And when we return 0:19:48.640 --> 0:19:51.119 the Eagles three sixty, Brian and I will talk about 0:19:51.160 --> 0:20:00.240 some position groups that need to produce your best ends 0:20:00.280 --> 0:20:04.040 against prostate cancer is early detection.
