Speaker 1: All right, well, neither team is adding a loss to
Speaker 1: the lost column. Here. The Bengals and the Eagles tie
Speaker 1: twenty three twenty three in overtime, and we are going
Speaker 1: to break down. There's plenty to talk about in this one.
Speaker 1: A very unsatisfying ending in sports. When there's a tie.
Speaker 1: For me, it just doesn't feel like it should. There
Speaker 1: should always be a winner and a loser. But let's
Speaker 1: discuss this one. Thank you for joining us on the
Speaker 1: postgame Show presented by Rico, Amy Campbell, Friend, Duffy Ike Grease. Guys,
Speaker 1: where do we even begin on this one? Let me
Speaker 1: start with you. How do you feel about a tie
Speaker 1: in this one? How? How am I supposed to be
Speaker 1: feeling happiest, sad? Neutral? No, No, you should feel sad
Speaker 1: as an Eagles fan. I mean that's you know, and
Speaker 1: taking nothing away from the Cincinnati Bengals. But if you're
Speaker 1: looking at the big picture and what we hoped this
Speaker 1: Eagles football team could be this year, I think if
Speaker 1: it wasn't clear to us in the first two weeks, Amy,
Speaker 1: I think going up against an owing two Cincinnati Bengals
Speaker 1: team at home when they're starting a rookie quarterback and
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow, and you can't find a way to get
Speaker 1: a win at home, plenty of opportunities to do that.
Speaker 1: You walk away with a tie. It feels like a
Speaker 1: loss because what it feels like to me is is
Speaker 1: that I can't dream about a championship right now. I
Speaker 1: can't think about posting season play right now. Uh. It's um,
Speaker 1: it's frustrating not knowing what this team could be this year,
Speaker 1: and right now at the three weeks, the sailing at
Speaker 1: least for this particular team uh does not look like
Speaker 1: is very high. And that's that's disheartening if you're an
Speaker 1: Eagles fan right now. All right, I'm gonna sit in
Speaker 1: my sad feelings then, and Fran let me go to you. Uh.
Speaker 1: At the end of overtime, there the decision to go
Speaker 1: for a sixty four yard field goal after the false
Speaker 1: start that backed them up from fifty nine yards I
Speaker 1: think it was sixty four yards, uh, and Doug Peterson
Speaker 1: elects to punt it away and take the tie. This
Speaker 1: is probably gonna be a big talking point this week
Speaker 1: around here. I'm guessing yeah, I would say so. UM.
Speaker 1: You know, obviously, there's not a lot to say about
Speaker 1: what happened in the last few seconds of that game.
Speaker 1: I mean inexcusable penalty from Matt prior in that situation
Speaker 1: to take that false start penalty, regardless, I know there
Speaker 1: was movement from the defensive line and things like that,
Speaker 1: but to have that kind of penalty and then even
Speaker 1: you know what happened on the first down after the
Speaker 1: big play to Zach Ertz getting that penalty or having
Speaker 1: to spend that time out right after that play just
Speaker 1: self inflicted wounds, right. I mean, we say this all
Speaker 1: the time after Eagles losses. You say it on offense,
Speaker 1: you say it on defense, on special team. You know that,
Speaker 1: you know, three minutes of real time at the end
Speaker 1: of the game. That's tough to swallow. And that's that's
Speaker 1: why I agree with Mike. If you're an Eagles fan,
Speaker 1: it's tough. You can't walk away from this happy with
Speaker 1: a tie. I mean, that's you can't. I know it
Speaker 1: wasn't a loss, but it does not feel good right now,
Speaker 1: and it's it's not going to feel good this week.
Speaker 1: Still nothing in the win column for either team, So
Speaker 1: that speaks to your point as well. And look, when
Speaker 1: you look at the Eagles defense, big stop after big
Speaker 1: stop after big stop, especially during that overtime eight sacks
Speaker 1: on Joe Burrow, still unable to get in the win column.
Speaker 1: Let's go now to Dave Spadero, Eagles insider. Dave, we
Speaker 1: were hoping we were going to be in a great
Speaker 1: mood when we had this postgame show. That's what we
Speaker 1: mentioned earlier in the kickoff show. But let's just get
Speaker 1: your initial thoughts on this and and just the vibe
Speaker 1: kind of in there at Lincoln Financial Field. I mean,
Speaker 1: there's no vibe because there's nobody here, but it was
Speaker 1: heartening to see the way that Carson Wentz led the
Speaker 1: team down the field at the end of regulation, and
Speaker 1: then the way they mishandled overtime was really difficult to see.
Speaker 1: This is a veteran coaching staff that is preparing players
Speaker 1: for every scenario. Did not prepare the Eagles, is Fran
Speaker 1: alluded to. After the zach Ertz big catch and then
Speaker 1: the false start from Matt Pryor that is, you know,
Speaker 1: JP goes down at on that sneak from Carson Wentz,
Speaker 1: the Eagles are in prime position, with plenty of time
Speaker 1: on the clock to put themselves in field goal position.
Speaker 1: By the way, no wind at all in the stadium,
Speaker 1: So that was an opportunity for Jake Elliott to have
Speaker 1: a long field goal, opportunity to make a field goal.
Speaker 1: So but then also beyond that is the carnage that
Speaker 1: this team incurred once again. Dallas Goddard ankle injury, DeShawn
Speaker 1: Jackson hamstring injury, Avonte Maddox ankle injury. JP at the
Speaker 1: end of the game goes down and has to be
Speaker 1: helped off the field. So you know, Carson is throwing
Speaker 1: to Deontay Burnett, He's throwing to Greg Ward, He's throwing
Speaker 1: to John high Tower, Richard Rogers. I know the stat
Speaker 1: that I saw during the game was something like two
Speaker 1: out of one hundred and forty six teams that start
Speaker 1: of the season, oh and three made it to the playoffs.
Speaker 1: I don't, however, know the statistic of zero two and one,
Speaker 1: and that's why I will say that this is not
Speaker 1: as bad as a loss. It was poorly managed. At
Speaker 1: the end of the game, the offense still sputtering. I
Speaker 1: felt a little twenty nineteen Giants game Monday night here
Speaker 1: when the Eagles turned it around. They're late, but you
Speaker 1: walk away with a bunch more injuries and a very
Speaker 1: unsatisfying feeling. Well, Dave, you touched on a lot there
Speaker 1: and a lot to kind of respond to. I guess
Speaker 1: the first thing you talked about Carson Wentza and the
Speaker 1: heartening feeling of him kind of leading that team down.
Speaker 1: He runs in for the touchdown to tie the game late.
Speaker 1: I know there was no fans in the stands, but
Speaker 1: being there watching alive, did you kind of get that
Speaker 1: sense that momentum was started to go their way? Oh? Absolutely,
Speaker 1: And I really liked by that time, friend, I was
Speaker 1: actually in the stands section one. Oh wait, I felt
Speaker 1: like I was a good luck charm. It was the
Speaker 1: first time I've ever been in the stands for extended
Speaker 1: period of time in my life for an Eagles game,
Speaker 1: and it was really fun. But I like Carson getting
Speaker 1: out of the pocket and running, and you know, that
Speaker 1: is just something that that's another element here. I like
Speaker 1: the Jalen Hurts package. I like you, you've got to
Speaker 1: be creative when you're throwing to a receiving core that
Speaker 1: is not experienced, that doesn't really have the deep threat.
Speaker 1: So I thought the Eagles did that pretty nicely, and
Speaker 1: I thought Carson responded late and then he even put
Speaker 1: them in position twice in overtime in Cincinnati's side of
Speaker 1: the fifty yard line. But at the end of the day,
Speaker 1: as I said, you've got to find a way to
Speaker 1: put away a team that's oh in two. The Cincinnati Bengals,
Speaker 1: a young team, and the Eagles just couldn't do that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they It is great the way they continued to fight
Speaker 1: in this game. They show some resiliency, but still early
Speaker 1: in the game Dave missed opportunities and turnovers at the
Speaker 1: quarterback position still an issue. If you don't have those,
Speaker 1: maybe this isn't a tie game late late in the
Speaker 1: fourth quarter. Yeah, I mean, look, Carson struggling, there's no
Speaker 1: doubt about it. Two bad interceptions, one tiped of course,
Speaker 1: then he misses Miles Sanders on the sideline route when
Speaker 1: Sanders had a two step advantage in coverage. That would
Speaker 1: have been a touchdown. And so you know, we are
Speaker 1: still wondering about Carson Wentz. What is going on here?
Speaker 1: Foot rolling left, throwing right, I mean throwing, body position contorted.
Speaker 1: There's certainly a lot of things to worry about. The
Speaker 1: Eagles going away from the run game for an extended
Speaker 1: period of time, in the second quarter after they had
Speaker 1: gashed Cincinnati early in the game with Miles Sanders. So yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not sitting here content. I'm not sitting
Speaker 1: here happy, but I'm telling you that the Eagles at
Speaker 1: least salvage something from this game. My big picture worry
Speaker 1: is that there are a lot more injuries. This team
Speaker 1: is playing with a skeleton crew, certainly at the wide
Speaker 1: receiver position, and when you lose a Dallas Goddard, you're
Speaker 1: losing a big part of the offense. David, I want
Speaker 1: to go back to to that last stretch in overtime,
Speaker 1: and you mentioned you were sitting in the stands in
Speaker 1: section one to wait. I'm not sure if you were
Speaker 1: there for the final conclusion, but we're kind of the takeaways.
Speaker 1: I obviously, with no fans there, you're able to kind
Speaker 1: of hear all the mechanicians happening on the sideline on
Speaker 1: the field, what was going on. I think it was
Speaker 1: poorly handled, you know, whether it looked at If you're
Speaker 1: going to coach everybody to be prepared for every different scenario,
Speaker 1: that's one of them. You're going down to the end
Speaker 1: of the game, you're trying to manage the clock, you've
Speaker 1: got no timeouts left, a player goes down. See, that
Speaker 1: was the unfortunate part. It was a really smart challenge
Speaker 1: by the Bengals, or I guess it was by the
Speaker 1: officials at that point to look at the spot. So
Speaker 1: instead of a first and ten from the forty five,
Speaker 1: the Eagles had to do call a quarterback sneak and
Speaker 1: that's where Jason Peters gets hurt and ten seconds go
Speaker 1: off the clock. You'll lose your left tackle, you've got
Speaker 1: to shuffle your offensive line again, and you suffer the
Speaker 1: false start penalty. So it's just, I mean, just an
Speaker 1: unfortunate series of events. But you've got to be ready
Speaker 1: for moments like that, and the Eagles just did not
Speaker 1: execute in that situation. Fran golden opportunity twice in overtime
Speaker 1: to steal a victory, and no doubt about it, this
Speaker 1: would have been a stolen victory because the Bengals played
Speaker 1: better for most of the game. That's a great point there, Dave,
Speaker 1: And yet, like you said, just unable to capitalize on
Speaker 1: those opportunities, especially down the stretch, with the opportunity to
Speaker 1: put the game away. All right, we're gonna let you go, Dave.
Speaker 1: Thanks so much for your insight. We'll keep holding it
Speaker 1: down here on the postgame shows, we break it down,
Speaker 1: all right, guys, All right, I'm gonna go to you
Speaker 1: now to get started on your three takeaways. Hard to
Speaker 1: have only three after a game like this, But what's
Speaker 1: the first one? Yeah, I mean, he missed opportunities early
Speaker 1: in the game. You know, Dave mentioned the stopping gold route,
Speaker 1: the mouse Sanders had out there on the linebacker where
Speaker 1: he beats the linebacker by a couple of yards, and
Speaker 1: that's a throw Carson has to make. I mean, take
Speaker 1: your time, make that throw. There's no pressure on him.
Speaker 1: He has the ability to make that throw, and he
Speaker 1: completely overshoots him by three yards. That's a possible touchdown.
Speaker 1: Not just a big game there, but that's a touchdown potentially.
Speaker 1: They're on that play and an opportunity to get back,
Speaker 1: get back ahead of this game and possibly not even
Speaker 1: go into overtime if they connect on that play. And
Speaker 1: then there's a throw also early in the game where
Speaker 1: he could have hit zach Ertz and he just missed him.
Speaker 1: I just think that when you have an opportunity to
Speaker 1: make big plays and you're struggling at the quarterback position.
Speaker 1: You have to be able to make them when they're there,
Speaker 1: and there were some opportunities, much like they have been
Speaker 1: in the first three weeks of the season, and we're
Speaker 1: just not capitalizing on them in the passing game. And
Speaker 1: when you start to lose more and more of your
Speaker 1: best players at the skill position, those opportunities are going
Speaker 1: to be far and few, and who knows how many
Speaker 1: of those you're gonna get the rest of the day.
Speaker 1: There weren't very many of those left after that Mouse
Speaker 1: Sanders play with Deshaun Jackson being injured. So that's something
Speaker 1: that I noticed that if you just hit on those plays,
Speaker 1: this game may not even get the overtime. Well, look,
Speaker 1: you could see the frustration on Carson Wentz, his face,
Speaker 1: his entire body language. I don't know if I've really
Speaker 1: ever seen him look so frustrated on the sideline there,
Speaker 1: especially down the stretch when he had Miles Sanders wide
Speaker 1: open and overthrew him. He looked so frustrated, So fran
Speaker 1: you could see that there were just missed opportunities at
Speaker 1: in those big moments, and a big part of that too, Amy,
Speaker 1: you know, the first half, I mean, he was under
Speaker 1: to rest really from the jump. I mean, the pass
Speaker 1: rush of that Cincinnati Bengals defensive line got to Carson
Speaker 1: Wentz a lot more than I think many every buddy
Speaker 1: would have liked to see, right. I Mean, you saw
Speaker 1: what carl Lawson was able to do coming off the
Speaker 1: Eagles left side against Jason Peters. You know, Carlos Dunlap
Speaker 1: was in the backfield there. There was just too much
Speaker 1: heat on Carson Wentz early in this game. He was
Speaker 1: never really able to get into any kind of rhythm.
Speaker 1: And by the time the offensive line kind of you know,
Speaker 1: the protection schemes got things figured out. I mean we
Speaker 1: talked about the missed opportunities. To me, one of the
Speaker 1: positive things from this game too, you know, just to
Speaker 1: kind of look at it on the other side defensively,
Speaker 1: the way that they were able to turn around you know,
Speaker 1: Darius Slays in and out. You had some injuries on
Speaker 1: that side, Ivante max Is out of the game. What
Speaker 1: they did in overtime to even give the Eagles a
Speaker 1: chance to win this game, uh prevented Cincinnati from flipping
Speaker 1: the field twice, was able to kind of you know,
Speaker 1: force negative yardage. They get a fourth and twenty two.
Speaker 1: What the defense was able to do on the back
Speaker 1: end of this game, especially in overtime, certainly a good sign,
Speaker 1: you know, when you look at how they were able
Speaker 1: to kind of bounce back. The offense and special teams
Speaker 1: just unable to come through for them. Yeah, I think
Speaker 1: that's a great point and plenty to break down in
Speaker 1: this defensive performance, especially down the stretch, especially in overtime.
Speaker 1: Stop after stop after stop. We saw Darius Slay get
Speaker 1: banged up, he comes out, he comes back in, makes
Speaker 1: several big stops in overtime. The defensive line, Brandon Graham,
Speaker 1: Fletcher Cox, Joe Burrow was sacked eight times. It was
Speaker 1: so much pressure that they were getting on him. And look,
Speaker 1: you even mentioned Avonte Maddox goes out, Trevor Williams steps in,
Speaker 1: they go at him. The very next play, he has
Speaker 1: a nice pass breakup in the end zone. We just
Speaker 1: saw Marcus steps there with another pass breakup in the
Speaker 1: end zone. A lot of a lot of big moments
Speaker 1: here from this defense that the offense wasn't able to
Speaker 1: get the job done, but the defense continue to put
Speaker 1: them in that position. Yeah. I like what the defense did.
Speaker 1: I like the game plan from Jim Schwartz today. You know,
Speaker 1: even though you got a young quarterback back there and
Speaker 1: the offensive line is banged up, the struggle to protect him.
Speaker 1: You know, conventional wisdom may say you don't need to
Speaker 1: bring X guys, you should be able to get home
Speaker 1: with your front four. But I like the mixture of
Speaker 1: a fifth or sixth rusher to give Joe Burrow something
Speaker 1: different to look at. And then also there were plenty
Speaker 1: of times where they got home with just their front
Speaker 1: flour So I like what the defense was able to do.
Speaker 1: There probably was maybe a quarter in the game where
Speaker 1: I thought we were giving up a little bit too
Speaker 1: much and Joe Burrow was a little bit too comfortable
Speaker 1: back there throwing the football. But when it came time
Speaker 1: to make the big plays and get the big stops,
Speaker 1: the defense was able to do it. Today. The one
Speaker 1: thing I'll say, Amy, if I'm a nitpick at the
Speaker 1: defense and they're eight sacks, I would have loved to
Speaker 1: get a stripped sack there, get that ball on the ground,
Speaker 1: find a way to get a turnover off this Cincinnati team.
Speaker 1: That really was the difference when you think about it.
Speaker 1: Eight sacks on Joe Burrow, but no turnover to day.
Speaker 1: He didn't fumble the ball, he didn't throw an interception,
Speaker 1: and the extra possession on a short field would have
Speaker 1: been nice to have for this Eagles offense. I mean,
Speaker 1: that's a great point, and brand I'll let each touch
Speaker 1: on that as well. That was Dave's key to the
Speaker 1: game was to win the turnover battle against Still zero
Speaker 1: takeaways for this defense with all the big plays, all
Speaker 1: the big stops today. And then of course two interceptions
Speaker 1: for Carson Wentz, bringing his total to six on the
Speaker 1: season after having seven all of last year. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And you know, Ike, you did a great job this
Speaker 1: week on Eagles Game Plan talking about, you know, defending
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow in those empty sets. We saw a lot
Speaker 1: of it. I talked about it here on the Kickoff
Speaker 1: show as well before the game here and with Amy,
Speaker 1: and it was all about disrupting the timing, and we
Speaker 1: talked about, you know, the coverage has to be tight.
Speaker 1: I thought that Joe, that Jim Schwartz and this defensive
Speaker 1: staff did a great job of kind of making him think,
Speaker 1: making it, you know, disguising coverages, disguising blitzes. We saw
Speaker 1: a different a number of different pressure looks from the
Speaker 1: Eagles in this game on third down when the Bengals
Speaker 1: weren't empty, And I thought that was a really well
Speaker 1: well executed game plan from Jim Schwartz and from this
Speaker 1: defensive staff, which was certainly good to see after what
Speaker 1: happened last week against LA. But I agree with you, alike.
Speaker 1: I mean, what the difference between a good defense and
Speaker 1: a great defense Turnovers? Big plays? Right, you know, if
Speaker 1: you you got to prevent the big play, no question,
Speaker 1: but creating some big plays for your offense is also
Speaker 1: what kind of takes that defense up in the next
Speaker 1: actually actually the next echelon. And I think when you're
Speaker 1: talking about run defense, sacks, you know, TFLs, those are
Speaker 1: all well and good, but you know, getting those strip sacks,
Speaker 1: getting those turnovers, that's what this off That's what this
Speaker 1: whole team honestly needs. Right now. All right, let's get
Speaker 1: to your second takeaway, Ike, Yeah, turnovers. I mean, we
Speaker 1: just really talked about it there, and it's on both
Speaker 1: sides of the ball. Obviously, the Eagles you can't turn
Speaker 1: the ball over. You lead the league and plus minus
Speaker 1: differential from the turnover category, what are we plus seven
Speaker 1: or no? Minus seven? I'm sorry, minus seven to where
Speaker 1: we're giving the ball away seven times and only I
Speaker 1: mean eight times, and only taking it away once, and
Speaker 1: that was on special team. So two more interceptions today.
Speaker 1: The first one I won't necessarily fault him. His arm
Speaker 1: was hit linebacker right there in the throwing lane. You
Speaker 1: get an interception there. But the interception where he was
Speaker 1: throwing the ball to Zach Ertz, that's just poor ball placement.
Speaker 1: That ball has to be placed on the outside where
Speaker 1: only Zach can catch it, or it's thrown out of bounds.
Speaker 1: There's no way you can throw that ball on the inside.
Speaker 1: Poorly executed throw from Carson Wentz. I've already we just
Speaker 1: talked about the defense and how great it was for
Speaker 1: them to get sacks and everything on Joe Burrow today,
Speaker 1: but it would have been nice to get a short
Speaker 1: field for this offense to sort to work with. And
Speaker 1: that's gonna be important for them going forward, guys, because
Speaker 1: without explosive plays and without any missing to Sean Jackson,
Speaker 1: we don't know how long he's going to be out
Speaker 1: in Dallas Goddard. This offense is gonna need short fields
Speaker 1: in order to get touchdown, so they're gonna need takeaways.
Speaker 1: From their defense and their offense must do a better
Speaker 1: job protecting the ball. Well, just as I'm looking at
Speaker 1: my notes, one of the things I wrote, I think
Speaker 1: I might have written this around the third quarter, but
Speaker 1: I wrote on offense, everything feels hard. It just feels
Speaker 1: like everything was such an effort to just move the
Speaker 1: chains even a little bit. And look, there are big injuries,
Speaker 1: there are the struggles that Carson's going through, there's the
Speaker 1: offensive line, there's there's Deshaun's out, there's ragers out, there's
Speaker 1: all these different factors, but it just still felt like
Speaker 1: it was the slogging through. It wasn't this just free,
Speaker 1: wide open offense that we have hoped to see and
Speaker 1: have seen at times from from the Eagles. Fran Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean it clearly. It's just it's just not clicking
Speaker 1: right now, especially in the passing game. You know, we
Speaker 1: talked to how important it was your key to the
Speaker 1: game going in Amy was going to be able to
Speaker 1: get the running game going. We did see a little
Speaker 1: bit of that, especially in the first half. They didn't
Speaker 1: get quite the amount of movement I think that they
Speaker 1: were hoping for. In the second half, Cincinnati kind of
Speaker 1: put the clamps down early in the second half on
Speaker 1: the run game. But yeah, I mean when you're talking about,
Speaker 1: you know, the pass game, it's I mean, it's just
Speaker 1: not clicking right now, guys. And I'll throw everything in there.
Speaker 1: You talking about pass protection. The quarterback play has not
Speaker 1: been great that there have been drops. It's just the
Speaker 1: passing game is just not clicking right now. Well, when
Speaker 1: you talk about getting the running game going, Miles Sanders
Speaker 1: ninety five yards today, Carson Wentz rushed for sixty five
Speaker 1: yards today. So, uh, that's something. I think that's a
Speaker 1: really high number for him. I don't remember the last
Speaker 1: time he did that. Um, I read it was it
Speaker 1: was I saw somebody tweeted the stat. It's been a
Speaker 1: while since he since he rushed for that many yards.
Speaker 1: I you look like you want to come in on
Speaker 1: that one. Is that is that team a ltt B
Speaker 1: l LBBT, whatever that is. I just think I just
Speaker 1: think it was needed today. It was needed. Um, He's
Speaker 1: gonna have to do more of that. I mean, this
Speaker 1: offense lacks u big play making ability right now, and
Speaker 1: until they find sort of a rhythm with the passing game, Carson,
Speaker 1: whenever they give you man coverage and the defense has
Speaker 1: his back turn to you. You gotta take off. I mean,
Speaker 1: it's what it's what the offense is called all for.
Speaker 1: I mean, what we saw the last four weeks of
Speaker 1: the season last year, for the five weeks of the
Speaker 1: season last year, is what we're about to see for
Speaker 1: the next few weeks until until they can get all
Speaker 1: of their players back on offense, it's gonna be all
Speaker 1: hands on deck and Carson's gonna have to run and
Speaker 1: throw in order for this offense to be able to
Speaker 1: move and get the ball in the end zone. All right,
Speaker 1: let's get to your next takeaway. Yeah, lack of explosiveness
Speaker 1: from the from the offense. I just mentioned it, Amy
Speaker 1: and fran It reminds me so much of what the
Speaker 1: end of the season looked like, where there was just
Speaker 1: far too many ten twelve played fourteen play drives where
Speaker 1: you just had to fight tooth and nail for every
Speaker 1: yard that you got, for every blade of grass that
Speaker 1: you got, you had to fight for it. And that's
Speaker 1: what today's since sort of felt like. And they just
Speaker 1: don't have the big plays there and when there's when
Speaker 1: a few opportunities arise, they gotta take advantage of it
Speaker 1: whether Carson needs to put the ball in a position
Speaker 1: whereas playmakers can make a throw, or if it's Carson
Speaker 1: who takes soft for a fifteen yard run and has
Speaker 1: the team in field goal range to possibly win the
Speaker 1: game and there's a holding penalty. You can't have those
Speaker 1: type of things. When they do make a big play,
Speaker 1: it seems like there's a penalty called. There's gonna call
Speaker 1: the big playback or we're gonna either overthrow the ball
Speaker 1: or underthrow the ball. Just this offense needs to get
Speaker 1: big plays going. It's what they design this offense to
Speaker 1: do this off season when they acquired these players. Unfortunately,
Speaker 1: injury bug is hit again, and I don't know where
Speaker 1: the explosive players are going to come from. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: I think it sounds like Doug Peterson might be taking
Speaker 1: the podium in the near future. So we are going
Speaker 1: to stand by for that. But Fran let's help and
Speaker 1: here comes to let's listen to the head coach. Hey, coach,
Speaker 1: thanks for taking the time. We'll get started right away
Speaker 1: with Dave zan Garrow and then John mcmallon. Hey, Doug,
Speaker 1: can you take us through the decision to punt at
Speaker 1: the end of the game. Please. Yeah, the decision there, UM,
Speaker 1: you know one or two things. You can either attempt
Speaker 1: it on fourth down and try to go for we
Speaker 1: we tried to go for the field goal game winner.
Speaker 1: That was that was the thing. We're gonna go for
Speaker 1: the game winner with the kick. Felt comfortable with Jake
Speaker 1: had the wind, the false start back this up, so
Speaker 1: we just said, hey, let's just let's just uh punt
Speaker 1: the football here. We didn't want to give him the ball,
Speaker 1: you know, towards midfield. UM or even a chance to
Speaker 1: go for it on fourth down and long U incomplete
Speaker 1: pass something like that, they get the ball short field,
Speaker 1: they could they could kick a field goal and win
Speaker 1: the game. So UM just made that decision. Hopefully something
Speaker 1: you know, positive might have might have come out of
Speaker 1: the punt. Don McMullan and then Kristen Rogers, Hey, Doug,
Speaker 1: if you go back to uh regular time, did you
Speaker 1: consider it all going for two when the game was tied.
Speaker 1: I did, Um, I did consider it, but I also
Speaker 1: felt like, uh, the way our office was playing, you know,
Speaker 1: towards the down the stretch, UM battled to get ourselves
Speaker 1: back in position. Carson and overtime, I felt comfortable there
Speaker 1: to just kick the extra point and then and then
Speaker 1: put it put it back in our offensive hands at
Speaker 1: that time, So just elected to kick fieldal or the
Speaker 1: extra point Christon and then Rob MADDI, Hey, DoD, curious
Speaker 1: what you tell your guys right now? I mean, what's
Speaker 1: what's the mood for for this team? I mean a
Speaker 1: tie is kind of almost as bad as a loss
Speaker 1: at this point. Yeah. Um, I told him in the
Speaker 1: locker room after the game that that, uh, we weren't
Speaker 1: a very very, very smart football team today. Um. I
Speaker 1: think eleven penalties very uh came at came at crucial times,
Speaker 1: and we couldn't get off the field on defense and offensively, Um,
Speaker 1: we didn't. We didn't execute well enough. We had some injuries,
Speaker 1: but um, you know that's going to be part of
Speaker 1: the game. But just not a smart football team right now.
Speaker 1: And that's on me and we'll get that fixed as
Speaker 1: we as we get get ready for this next week.
Speaker 1: But you know, I like how our team battled hung
Speaker 1: in there, came back to tie the game at the end,
Speaker 1: but just overall, not very smart today, not very disciplined. Um.
Speaker 1: When those are some of the things we talk about
Speaker 1: quite a bit. Rob and then Jeff McLean, Doug, why
Speaker 1: do you think this offense is still out of sync,
Speaker 1: still can't seem to find a rhythm. And how much
Speaker 1: do you blame some of those injuries on that? Well,
Speaker 1: it's it is hard, you know when you when you
Speaker 1: got some moving pieces and you got different guys in there.
Speaker 1: But listen, we're not going to make excuses for anything.
Speaker 1: You know. We got to continue to work. We got
Speaker 1: to continue to practice, get better and um, you know,
Speaker 1: sort these things out. And and uh, when the injuries
Speaker 1: piled up today, it just sort of got us a
Speaker 1: little bit out of our game plan rhythm. Um, and
Speaker 1: you know, uh, it was tough today to find to
Speaker 1: find a sync, to find rhythm. You know, I had
Speaker 1: to give credit to the Bengals, you know, for for
Speaker 1: kind of mixing up some some you know, some coverages
Speaker 1: some fronts on us. Um, and um, you know, we
Speaker 1: just got to continue to got to continue to work, Jeff,
Speaker 1: and then Tim McManus, Doug our carsones and mechanics. The
Speaker 1: reason why he's missing layup throws? No Franklin, Hey, Doug,
Speaker 1: you you pride yourself on being an aggressive coach, and
Speaker 1: like the confidence that it instills in your players by
Speaker 1: doing that. How does that jive with your decision to
Speaker 1: pun and create a situation where they had no chance
Speaker 1: to win. Yeah, that's a good question. You know. Um,
Speaker 1: obviously in those situations you gotta you hopefully do what's
Speaker 1: right for the football team. Um, you know, and that's
Speaker 1: probably a decision. I'll look back on tomorrow and say, hey,
Speaker 1: we could have done something else, but um, you know,
Speaker 1: it's uh, it is what it is. Um, we'll learn
Speaker 1: from it. I'll learn from it, and um, we'll get better.
Speaker 1: Chris and then Martin, Frank, Doug, you guys are a
Speaker 1: minus seven this season when it comes to overall turnover
Speaker 1: differentials and he's you mentioned you guys had eleven penalties today.
Speaker 1: Do you guys feel right now especially you feel as
Speaker 1: more scheme or just executions? Well, it's uh, it's a
Speaker 1: lot of that's just execution, you know. And the turnovers
Speaker 1: are uh, you know, are our you know, we're we're
Speaker 1: turning it over and we're not we're not getting the takeaways.
Speaker 1: As something we talked about this week as a team
Speaker 1: trying to trying to win the turnover ratio, and we
Speaker 1: didn't do that again. So we got to continue to
Speaker 1: uh you know, I've got to continue to to sort
Speaker 1: of talk about that with our football team, and somewhere
Speaker 1: we need, you know, we need to get a break
Speaker 1: where we can we can uh you know, create a
Speaker 1: short field for our offense, and right now we're not
Speaker 1: doing that. And um, you know, the penalties today were
Speaker 1: were costly as I said, and um, can't happen. And
Speaker 1: then Zack Burman, Hey, Doug, did you feel like you
Speaker 1: would be able to take advantage of them more running
Speaker 1: the football? I mean there was kind of a sequence
Speaker 1: in the first half where you guys through like seven
Speaker 1: straight passes and everything. You know, I was just wondering,
Speaker 1: like what your thoughts were as far as trying to
Speaker 1: take advantage of them in their run defense. Yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: I guess. I mean you can you can now look
Speaker 1: him back. You could say we could have done this,
Speaker 1: could have done that. Um, But in the moment at
Speaker 1: the time, you know, they had didn't done They had
Speaker 1: done some things with some of their nickel edge pressures
Speaker 1: that that kind of deterred us from some of our
Speaker 1: some of our run game, uh fits uh, stem in
Speaker 1: the front doing different things. It kind of disrupt and
Speaker 1: we knew that coming in. You know with this team,
Speaker 1: this is a this is a team that that that
Speaker 1: gives you a lot of multiple fronts and multiple looks,
Speaker 1: and so we were making adjustments on the sideline, but
Speaker 1: it felt like too we could we could make some
Speaker 1: uh you know, make some gains with with the ball
Speaker 1: coming out of Carson's hand and get him on the
Speaker 1: run just a little bit. Uh. You know, during the game,
Speaker 1: you have time for a few more. So let's go Zach,
Speaker 1: Jimmy and nick it Doug. What was Jake's range going
Speaker 1: into the game. And as far as not going for
Speaker 1: it on the fourth down, what do you think is
Speaker 1: a chance of happening you converting a fourth and twelve
Speaker 1: or them getting twelve yards without a time out if
Speaker 1: you did get the incompletion there, we were right at
Speaker 1: the kick line for Jake. Uh So my decision to
Speaker 1: kick the field goal and win the game was the
Speaker 1: right one at that time. No. But as as as
Speaker 1: far as as far as going for the punt and
Speaker 1: not keeping your offense on the field to try to
Speaker 1: get the fourth and twelve, well, the false start right there,
Speaker 1: we haven't you know, when we're we're struggling a little
Speaker 1: bit on third down. Um, you know, and again looking back,
Speaker 1: I mean hightsights you know, twenty twenty, I guess, and
Speaker 1: and um, I'll look at that decision and uh, you
Speaker 1: know tomorrow with clear, clear eyes and make a decision later.
Speaker 1: I mean, and then Nick, yeah, hey, Doug, um not
Speaker 1: to beat this point with the you know, like like
Speaker 1: a dead horse or whatever. But when it was gonna
Speaker 1: be the sixty four yard or you know, because he
Speaker 1: had hit from from because Jake had hit from sixty
Speaker 1: one before, and because he had hit from fifty four
Speaker 1: earlier with room spare in the day earlier in the day,
Speaker 1: was there any discussion at all with with Fip or
Speaker 1: with Jake on whether to just go screw it, let's
Speaker 1: just kick it anyway. What are you talking about. I
Speaker 1: mean we were going to kick it anyway. I mean
Speaker 1: kicked the field goal anyway. Oh from when we had
Speaker 1: the five yard penalty. Um no, I mean you know
Speaker 1: again then then you're you know, look, that's a decision.
Speaker 1: If you miss it, didn't you get they get the
Speaker 1: ball right at you know, the midfield stripe And he
Speaker 1: didn't want to do that either, and give him a
Speaker 1: short field and win the game ahead. Nick Hi, Doug Good,
Speaker 1: What did you see from Carson on that game tying
Speaker 1: drive at the end of regulation? Um? Feeling basic decisions there,
Speaker 1: especially on the touchdown run. And do you think maybe
Speaker 1: maybe you could a hurdle or two here with that
Speaker 1: that we kind of broke up? Can you ask it again? Uh? Yeah?
Speaker 1: What what did you see from Carson on that final
Speaker 1: touchdown or the final touchdown drive to tied at the
Speaker 1: end of regulation? Um? He looks like he made some
Speaker 1: good decisions with runs, especially on the on the touchdown. Um.
Speaker 1: Did you did you get anything out like you can
Speaker 1: you take anything from that going forward? After a kind
Speaker 1: of an up and down performance from him? Yeah, I mean,
Speaker 1: you know, he battled, he was tough. He he had
Speaker 1: some some tough runs. He had the run for the
Speaker 1: you know, the scramble for the you know, for the touchdown,
Speaker 1: and I played physical, um, you know, and that was
Speaker 1: one of the things we did and we took we
Speaker 1: took away from that, and we did have the ability
Speaker 1: to run the football, and we came out in the
Speaker 1: overtime period and basically tried to do the same thing,
Speaker 1: you know, and and uh, try to try to simulate
Speaker 1: the run game, get it going, and you know we
Speaker 1: we were a little behind the chains um on a
Speaker 1: couple of drives today. You know, we weren't very good
Speaker 1: on first down again, m second long and third long
Speaker 1: situations that that hurt us. But you know, looking at
Speaker 1: that drive and the toughness that uh really all our guys,
Speaker 1: not just Carson, but all our guys. I mean, we
Speaker 1: had some guys that were beat up, that were playing
Speaker 1: hurt at the end of the game. Um, commend them
Speaker 1: for battling and uh, you know, tying the game. Thanks coach.
Speaker 1: All Right, all right, pretty candid there from coach Doug
Speaker 1: Peterson saying, look, I told our team we're not we
Speaker 1: were not a very smart football team today, but that's
Speaker 1: on me. We'll get it turned around, referencing the eleven
Speaker 1: penalties and Jalen Mills is taking the podium, so we'll
Speaker 1: send it back on over. Hey, Jalen, thanks for taking
Speaker 1: the time today. We'll get started with Jamie Pody and
Speaker 1: then Las Bowen. Hey, Dylan, Um, I was wondering if
Speaker 1: you guys as a team have any anger with the
Speaker 1: fact that you guys ended this game in a tie.
Speaker 1: A coach was saying, you know that you guys talked
Speaker 1: about being disappointed, but is anyone angry in this room
Speaker 1: that you guys are two and one now, UM, it's
Speaker 1: definitely very upsetting. UM. When you talk about anger, UM,
Speaker 1: it can go a couple of different ways. So I
Speaker 1: think the biggest phrase right now, it will be very upsetting. Um.
Speaker 1: You've seen some good and then you've seen some bad.
Speaker 1: And UM, at the end of the day, that's that's
Speaker 1: not our standard. We played this game to win, you know, Um,
Speaker 1: Philadelphia Eagles, we have one standard, UM, and that's winning
Speaker 1: home and not playing for a tire or lost last
Speaker 1: and then by Jaylen, what kind of message does the
Speaker 1: team take from hunting with nineteen seconds left to know
Speaker 1: for time? Yeah, UM, I mean unfortunately, UM, we were
Speaker 1: in field goal range. UM. Coach always preaches, you know,
Speaker 1: don't have any self inflicted you know, punities. UM, we
Speaker 1: had a couple of those, and I mean, of course
Speaker 1: we would have loved to to kick that field goal,
Speaker 1: but I think it was just a little bit out
Speaker 1: of UM Jake's range. UM. I mean, so at that
Speaker 1: point you really don't have a have a choice. Soh
Speaker 1: and then but next Marie jail, and you said, just
Speaker 1: now that one of the things that you guys brought
Speaker 1: yourselves on. It's not playing for a tie or a loss.
Speaker 1: But you know, when you do punt that ball, you
Speaker 1: are playing for the tie. What was your guy's reaction
Speaker 1: as you're as you're walking off the field and in
Speaker 1: the locker room. I mean, at that point, um say
Speaker 1: say we do try to kick a field goal, um,
Speaker 1: and and we miss. You know, it's now that that
Speaker 1: team has the opportunity to you know, get field position back.
Speaker 1: There's still time on the clock and you know, maybe
Speaker 1: they get in position to kick a field goal and
Speaker 1: we do take the laws. So it's a lot of
Speaker 1: different ways that the scenario could have went. UM. At
Speaker 1: the end of the day, I mean, we tied, um,
Speaker 1: and you know we just got a live with that.
Speaker 1: You know, come in on Tuesday, watched the film. You know,
Speaker 1: look at the mistakes, you know, because at this point
Speaker 1: you don't care about any good that we did. You know,
Speaker 1: the result wasn't the result. We wanted to look at
Speaker 1: the mistakes offense, defensive, special teams is get them corrected.
Speaker 1: Chris and the Michaelongo, Yeah, tell how do you feel
Speaker 1: about the defensive performance today. UM, I mean me as
Speaker 1: as a true competitor. UM, I mean I want to
Speaker 1: win each and every game. You know what I mean?
Speaker 1: I want, I want. I wanted to be on the
Speaker 1: defensive back. I'm regardless. You know, whatever happened so us
Speaker 1: getting you know, maybe one more play, you know, getting
Speaker 1: the getting the strips, at getting an interception, um, whatever
Speaker 1: it may be, getting a fumble. We just I feel
Speaker 1: like we've we could have got one more play in.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, it could have made the difference.
Speaker 1: You have time for two more, So let's go Michaelongo
Speaker 1: and Daniel Gallen jallon. What do you think this team's
Speaker 1: psyche is that? Right down? It seems like, you know,
Speaker 1: for the first three games things have gone wrong the
Speaker 1: the worst possible time. You're leasing players to injuries, even
Speaker 1: though it's early in the year and you have a
Speaker 1: lot of time left. I realized, But what do you
Speaker 1: think this seems psyche is right now? It's the same,
Speaker 1: you know, go out compete Monday through Friday at practice,
Speaker 1: come out on Sunday and play for the win. My
Speaker 1: five years being here, now that's how this team has
Speaker 1: ever done. It's fought through adversity, fall through injury, fall
Speaker 1: through ups and downs throughout the season, and at the
Speaker 1: end of the day, you know, we have one goal,
Speaker 1: you know, make it to the postseason. And once you
Speaker 1: make it to the postseason, you know you want to
Speaker 1: be in the dance. So I don't think at this
Speaker 1: point nobody's down on their self. L Cup. Of course,
Speaker 1: like I said, this upsetting, you know, the dudes, you know,
Speaker 1: may feel some type of way because we did tie,
Speaker 1: you know, but at the end of the day, we've
Speaker 1: been here before, you know what I'm saying, and we
Speaker 1: got the coaches, we got the players to fight through.
Speaker 1: This last question here with Daniel Jalen on that final
Speaker 1: drive on the sideline, what did you see from Carson
Speaker 1: Wentz on the offense? What was it like watching that
Speaker 1: sea fronts? Yeah, I mean they were putting a drive together,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. They were getting down the field. Um.
Speaker 1: Then you know, like I said, unfortunately at the end,
Speaker 1: m We're no trying to get the field the range,
Speaker 1: get get those those penalties. Man. That that hurt us,
Speaker 1: you know, because we're confident in Jake and I feel
Speaker 1: like if we didn't have those you know, Jake was
Speaker 1: going to give us opportunity to to ice the game.
Speaker 1: Thanks Jalen, thank you. All right. Love those comments from
Speaker 1: Jalen Mills. They're saying it's definitely very upsetting. We play
Speaker 1: this game to win. We'll come in Tuesday and look
Speaker 1: at the mistakes and fix them. And we're about to
Speaker 1: hear now from Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz. Hey, Carson, thanks
Speaker 1: for taking the time today. We'll get started with Paul
Speaker 1: Domowich and then Zach Burman. Yeah, of Courson, you lost
Speaker 1: Dallas early in this game second possessions. He's such as
Speaker 1: such an an important role both in the run and
Speaker 1: pass game. How much did it hurt to lose him? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean losing a guy like Dallas that, like you said,
Speaker 1: he's got a huge role in protections in you know,
Speaker 1: run game, but I mean he's a playmaker with the
Speaker 1: ball in his hands and down the field. So you know,
Speaker 1: we definitely he's a big part of our game plan
Speaker 1: every week, and so losing him, we obviously we had
Speaker 1: to make some adjustments on the fly makes it tough.
Speaker 1: And then losing d Jack at halftime, um, you know
Speaker 1: made it tough as well. And just trying to get
Speaker 1: guys going in the right place and trying to bring
Speaker 1: it all together. I mean, it's definitely challenging in the
Speaker 1: middle of a game. But though guys did a good
Speaker 1: job of, you know, filling those spots when they could
Speaker 1: sack and then Dave's and garrow our Carson before the
Speaker 1: final drive. What was the conversation with Doug on the
Speaker 1: sideline going over to play sheet there and can you
Speaker 1: keep us through that final drive, the final drive of
Speaker 1: overtime having a hard time hearing the final drive of
Speaker 1: regulation to tie the game. Oh yeah, I mean it was.
Speaker 1: I mean I was proud of the way the guys fought.
Speaker 1: You know, we had we had a couple of penalties.
Speaker 1: You know, we kind of just slowly moving the ball
Speaker 1: down the field and you know, getting completions and moving
Speaker 1: the chains as best we could and found a way
Speaker 1: to punch it in. So I was proud of the
Speaker 1: guys the way we we we rallied, especially after kind
Speaker 1: of a back and forth not so clean game from
Speaker 1: us offensively. But um, yeah, I mean there's a lot
Speaker 1: of dialogue with coach in terms of what plays we
Speaker 1: want to get to, we want to run the ball,
Speaker 1: throw the ball? Who are best matchups? And you know,
Speaker 1: kind of goes back to the first question and just
Speaker 1: we got plays designed, but we got new guys out there,
Speaker 1: so we got to find a way to get guys
Speaker 1: in the right spots, and we found a way to
Speaker 1: end of regulation at least to tie up. Dave and
Speaker 1: then Tim mcmannus did, Carson, what was your reaction when
Speaker 1: Doug decided to punt basically for the tie in the overtime. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean I understood the decision. Tying is no fun.
Speaker 1: I don't think I've ever been in the tie, so
Speaker 1: it's just kind of an awkward way to end the game.
Speaker 1: But um, frustrating when you have a chance there to
Speaker 1: kick the field goal. And even with our drive offensively,
Speaker 1: a couple of times we felt like we were in
Speaker 1: field goal range. We had plays and then we had
Speaker 1: penalties and things just kept backing us up. So, um,
Speaker 1: the fight was there that after it was there from guys.
Speaker 1: We just gotta be smarter, play cleaner. I gotta be
Speaker 1: better as well, and um, yeah, it was frustrating way
Speaker 1: to end the game for sure. Tim. And then Jeff McLean,
Speaker 1: I can't hear you too, Why not Jeff, Why don't
Speaker 1: you step in Carson? Um? You guys are know Doug
Speaker 1: has always been known for his aggressiveness. What did you
Speaker 1: make a decision not to go for two at the
Speaker 1: end of regulation to win it right there? And then
Speaker 1: also in fourth and twelve, were you part of the
Speaker 1: discussions to maybe send the offense back out there and
Speaker 1: try and convert um? You know, both those are those
Speaker 1: decisions are are coaches. You know, I think um coach
Speaker 1: felt good about our ability and our momentum. You know,
Speaker 1: going into overtime to defense is playing well to get
Speaker 1: a stopping for us offensively to go down and get
Speaker 1: a score. So you know, I trust from respect coach
Speaker 1: decision that those are his to make. And you know,
Speaker 1: even the fourth down later, I think we were all
Speaker 1: kind of unsure as to what was going on, even
Speaker 1: because we had a field goal lined up ready to go.
Speaker 1: And I mean, I get it. They're tough decisions to make,
Speaker 1: and I trust coach fully, Tim if you're ready. And
Speaker 1: then John McMullin, you run us through your two interceptions.
Speaker 1: Were they the right reads? And what were you seeing? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I mean the first one I felt good about. You know,
Speaker 1: ball gets tipped out of the line. That's it's a
Speaker 1: bad feeling when you're back there and you're seeing the
Speaker 1: ball flutters through the air because it gets tipped that
Speaker 1: line of scrimmage. Guy made a good play and the
Speaker 1: other one, you know, got got aggressive there trying to
Speaker 1: get one in there to earths and m guy made
Speaker 1: a good play. And you know that's something that I
Speaker 1: just got to be better with John and then Martin
Speaker 1: frank Hey, Carson more moving parts on the offensive line.
Speaker 1: This week, Nate flip sides. Matt Pryor was in their
Speaker 1: right guard. I know you preached that next man up mentality,
Speaker 1: But how difficult all the moving parts? Then, as you mentioned,
Speaker 1: you lose Dallas to Seaun in game. How much more
Speaker 1: difficult and how does that change things on the fly? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean it's definitely always difficult. It's always a challenge, Um,
Speaker 1: in a week, it's one thing. In a game, it's
Speaker 1: even tougher. Um. But none of those things are excuses.
Speaker 1: You know, Guys prepare and guys are ready to go.
Speaker 1: That's why we're all here, um, you know, ready to
Speaker 1: go when when our numbers called, and I thought guys
Speaker 1: did a good job, like I said earlier. I think
Speaker 1: guys stepped up where they needed to, and Um, though line,
Speaker 1: I thought they played well and off to obviously watched
Speaker 1: the tape, but you know, I'm proud of the way
Speaker 1: guys are just hey, next man up. There's no you know,
Speaker 1: big guys like what's going on. Guys are ready to go.
Speaker 1: They know their stuff, and we got we gotta just
Speaker 1: be better in play smart. We have time for two more,
Speaker 1: so let's go Martin Frank and then Marcus Hayes. Hey Carson, Um,
Speaker 1: you seem to have another up and down kind of day.
Speaker 1: I mean, I guess Tim, I already asked you about
Speaker 1: the interceptions, but you have the one deep ball to
Speaker 1: uh Miles set you over threw. You seem kind of
Speaker 1: frustrated by that, But then you also had like the
Speaker 1: really nice past to Earth. So I mean, are you still, like,
Speaker 1: can you just kind of talk about just the ups
Speaker 1: and downs that you're still kind of going through here? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I mean really, that's every game. You know, you're gonna
Speaker 1: miss a couple, You're gonna you know, make some plays.
Speaker 1: Things happen. Um, obviously, I gotta just be better. I
Speaker 1: gotta you know, handle some of these and some of
Speaker 1: them are communication, just make sure we're on the same
Speaker 1: page with with everybody, and some are just you know,
Speaker 1: pour throws and I gotta be better and I will,
Speaker 1: and guys are you know we're still meshing and gelling
Speaker 1: as a team and building the chemistry and um, you know,
Speaker 1: lot of moving pieces today and not as an excuse,
Speaker 1: but guys will continue to get this experience and learn
Speaker 1: from it and we'll all be better, including myself. Last
Speaker 1: question here with Marcus Hey Carson, Um, it looked from
Speaker 1: our perspective anyway, like the DeShawn Jackson pass was in
Speaker 1: the triple coverage. It looked like you threw to the
Speaker 1: wrong side to Zach Gertz and clearly, I mean, I
Speaker 1: don't know if it was a timy issue, but you
Speaker 1: seem to overthrow miles standards on what would have been
Speaker 1: a touchdown ball. I mean, are are we not seeing
Speaker 1: what you're seeing? Is there something we're missing? I'll have
Speaker 1: to watch the tape, you know, honestly, you know, you
Speaker 1: go through a game and you know you make poor decisions,
Speaker 1: you make great decisions. You make some good throws, you
Speaker 1: miss some throws. Some of them our communications, some of
Speaker 1: them are. Unfortunately, some guys are making good plays and
Speaker 1: I gotta be better and I know that and I
Speaker 1: will be and uh, you know, I'll learn from it.
Speaker 1: That's truly all I can say. Thank you, Thank you guys.
Speaker 1: All right, that's Eagles quarterback Carson Once as we stay
Speaker 1: on our toes, the players are going to be continuing
Speaker 1: shuffling in so as we continue to wait for who
Speaker 1: ever is taking the podium. Next, let's go over some
Speaker 1: of the high points from Carson Wentz's press conference here,
Speaker 1: talking about he's proud of the way the guys fought,
Speaker 1: how they rallied at the end of regulation, continuing to
Speaker 1: trust the coach's decisions, that they're tough decisions to make,
Speaker 1: and that punting was a frustrating way to end the game,
Speaker 1: but understanding the decision the coach made. All right, Brandon
Speaker 1: Graham is ready to take the podium. Let's let's listen in.
Speaker 1: Hey BG, thanks for taking the time. We'll get started
Speaker 1: with Ed Kratz and then Rab Maddi. Hey BG, So
Speaker 1: you have a tie first one. I think since you've
Speaker 1: been here in Philadelphia, how do you view this? I mean,
Speaker 1: you know, for me, I'm not I'm not happy, you
Speaker 1: know about it, because but I am, you know, more
Speaker 1: more proud of how we fought in the end because
Speaker 1: that goal line stands that we had to keep them
Speaker 1: holding the three. You know, that was big. We could
Speaker 1: have easily folded right there and we could have been
Speaker 1: talking about a loss. You know, right now, I look
Speaker 1: at you know, we gotta out of work to do.
Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, we're gonna stay together,
Speaker 1: you know, So I'm not really um, you know, worried
Speaker 1: about it. I know the Bengals was gonna come in
Speaker 1: and they's gonna fight. You know, every team we we
Speaker 1: we match up against, they're gonna fight. So it ain't
Speaker 1: no easy wins, ain't no easy games. So you know,
Speaker 1: I think that, Uh, I just love that we all
Speaker 1: stuck together through all that stuff to happen, and we
Speaker 1: just we just messed up in the end. We can't
Speaker 1: do that, rob And then Jamie, you guys got after
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow sacked them eight times. How frustrating is it
Speaker 1: that to spit all that pressure on him, the defense
Speaker 1: again for third straight game wasn't able to force any turnovers.
Speaker 1: I know, it's, uh, we we gotta, we gotta do
Speaker 1: better with that. Um, we were talking about it out
Speaker 1: there on trying to make turnover plays. They did a
Speaker 1: good job protecting the ball and you know, um, opportunities
Speaker 1: came for us to you know get the ball and
Speaker 1: we we we uh, we just didn't get it. But
Speaker 1: you know, um, I will say we we've we've stayed
Speaker 1: together through all the adversity we went through in this game.
Speaker 1: And um, you know we're just gonna come in as
Speaker 1: they ready to work, Jamie. And then less the fact
Speaker 1: that you guys after three weeks of the season still
Speaker 1: haven't won a football game. Can you speak to the
Speaker 1: boot of the team. What is it like in that
Speaker 1: locker room? Everybody's still together. Everybody know was today towards
Speaker 1: the end was self. I mean most of the game
Speaker 1: was you know on us pre snap penalties that killed
Speaker 1: us in the end too, getting us out of the
Speaker 1: field goal range. And you know that's something that Doug
Speaker 1: preaches all the time, you know, don't beat ourselves. And
Speaker 1: so I know that the team, he hasn't lost. The team.
Speaker 1: Ain't nobody worried, you know, we just know we just
Speaker 1: got to get a w and things will definitely start
Speaker 1: to take care of themselves, but us giving up on
Speaker 1: each other. Nah, we worked too hard for that less.
Speaker 1: And then at banking, Hey, Brandon, you said that Doug
Speaker 1: hasn't lost the team, But what did you think when
Speaker 1: the Eagles lined up the punt with nineteen seconds left
Speaker 1: in overtime? Kind of message did that send to you? Um? Well,
Speaker 1: you know he had to do what he had to do.
Speaker 1: You know, we make it's tough decisions that had to
Speaker 1: be made. You know, we trust, we trust coach and
Speaker 1: that's just what it is. We trust that he gonna
Speaker 1: put us in a position. So if we missed that
Speaker 1: field goal and then they go down and kick a
Speaker 1: field goal off one play, you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: That they're getting field goal range and we lose the game,
Speaker 1: then it's like, oh, you're getting them on that. So
Speaker 1: I trust coach. I'm not worried about nothing else. Coach definitely, Um,
Speaker 1: you know, make the right decisions on whatever you feel
Speaker 1: for this team. So you know, I got his back.
Speaker 1: But could he have trusted you a little bit there?
Speaker 1: I mean, they would have had to do something pretty
Speaker 1: strong in nineteen seconds to kick a field goal. But coach,
Speaker 1: I mean, coach did what he did. Man. You know
Speaker 1: I'm gonna ride with that, you know, And um, that's
Speaker 1: that's as far as I'm gonna go with it. Thank you, Ed,
Speaker 1: And then neck all right, Brandon, you're a lot of
Speaker 1: the guys who've been saying during the week that you're
Speaker 1: closer and you're you're this much closer to turning things around.
Speaker 1: But when these mistakes batting up, does it get to
Speaker 1: a point if you start to wonder maybe you're not
Speaker 1: as close as you think. You're already getting this thing
Speaker 1: turned around. Man, that's just you talking. I ain't worried
Speaker 1: about it. You know we're gonna come in. We're gonna
Speaker 1: get it right. You know what I'm saying. I know
Speaker 1: that for us, we put too much time and effort
Speaker 1: into this thing, and you know, stuff happened in the
Speaker 1: game that you know you're not proud of sometimes, and
Speaker 1: you know what I do with what I will say,
Speaker 1: we're gonna stand tall through it all and we're gonna
Speaker 1: get it right. You know what I'm saying. Then, Um,
Speaker 1: we we've been underdogs all ever since I've been here.
Speaker 1: You know, as soon as things go bad, you know,
Speaker 1: people want to start panicking. We ain't panicking. We just
Speaker 1: know it's a it's a different type of year, and
Speaker 1: we're gonna get it right. Two more. So let's go
Speaker 1: Nick and then bow high pg um. You mentioned it's
Speaker 1: a different type of year. It was a different kind
Speaker 1: of training camp. You know, in retrospects, do you think
Speaker 1: you guys were prepared for the season when it started?
Speaker 1: I think we stay. I think we got great coaches.
Speaker 1: I'm not worried about, you know anything. I know a
Speaker 1: lot of a lot of this stuff is self inflicting,
Speaker 1: you know, stuff that we can control, and we're gonna
Speaker 1: get it right. You know, I think that. I mean,
Speaker 1: I don't make excuses. All I know is I just
Speaker 1: go to work, and I know that we go to
Speaker 1: work when it's time to go to work. And you know,
Speaker 1: things happen in the game that sometimes you know, hey,
Speaker 1: we're just not proud of that. We make make mistakes.
Speaker 1: I jumped off side. I wasn't proud of that. You know,
Speaker 1: I've been doing good off you know, watching that ball,
Speaker 1: But you know, mistakes happen. But I will say, we
Speaker 1: don't give up on each other because we put too
Speaker 1: much time and effort into this thing. And you know,
Speaker 1: I know the coaches do too. I love coach schwarts
Speaker 1: because sports definitely put us in position to make plays.
Speaker 1: But sometimes, you know, we we make our own mistakes
Speaker 1: on the field by not communicating, sometimes by not doing
Speaker 1: the technique that we've been taught to do sometimes because things,
Speaker 1: you know, move fast in the game and you're gonna
Speaker 1: make mistakes. But I love how we rally together at
Speaker 1: the end and you know we can build off that
Speaker 1: last money here with Hey Brandon. The TV cameras at
Speaker 1: the end, should Matt Prior on the sidelines is getting
Speaker 1: pretty emotional or his false start on what would have
Speaker 1: been the field goal? Did you have a chance to
Speaker 1: talk to him or see him in the locker room afterwards?
Speaker 1: And there's a guy I know it means something to him.
Speaker 1: You know, if he wasn't mad, you know, I'll be,
Speaker 1: you know, questioning something. But you know, I know that
Speaker 1: Prior definitely work his butt off. You know, he's happy
Speaker 1: for the opportunity that he's that he got. He took,
Speaker 1: He took care of business when he was in there.
Speaker 1: But you know, uh, he do gotta, he gotta, he
Speaker 1: gotta not make that mistake next time, and I know
Speaker 1: he will make up for that. Thanks PJ. All Right,
Speaker 1: all right, A ton of respect for Brandon Graham for
Speaker 1: answering the tough questions. And look, he is a competitor.
Speaker 1: He said it right there. We've been underdogs ever since
Speaker 1: we've been here. I spoke with him earlier this week
Speaker 1: and I said, what I love about this team, you
Speaker 1: thrive in the underdog role. What stresses me out about
Speaker 1: this team is they get into the underdog role. All Right,
Speaker 1: Miles Sanders ready to take some questions here. Let's listen.
Speaker 1: Hey Miles, thanks for taking the time. We'll get started
Speaker 1: here with Jeff McLean and then Dave Zangarow. H Miles,
Speaker 1: how do you view a tie? Oh man? Right off
Speaker 1: the bat? Okay, uh Um, I don't. I don't see
Speaker 1: it as bad or or or good. I mean, it's
Speaker 1: just both teams got to look at the film and
Speaker 1: just see what we could have done better to get
Speaker 1: a W. I know, for us, Um, I know, the
Speaker 1: defense played ahead of the game put us in great situations,
Speaker 1: but we also put them in bad situations. Again, we
Speaker 1: can't turn the ball over like that, and and just
Speaker 1: dumb pedalties hurt us this game. So Dave and then
Speaker 1: Chris Mary Miles. He had a really good first quarter
Speaker 1: and then two drives to start the second quarter. I
Speaker 1: think six straight dropbacks. How frustrating is that for you
Speaker 1: to not get the ball in those situations? Now, first
Speaker 1: game for me at all, UM, coaches have a game
Speaker 1: plan and we put all our truests in the coaches.
Speaker 1: So whatever place called and huld On, I'm running Chris
Speaker 1: and then Kristin Rodgers. Yeah, Miles, how do you evaluate
Speaker 1: the way Carson went through in the offense and especially
Speaker 1: how he kind of came back from those interceptions that
Speaker 1: he threw and scored that touchdown at the end. Repeat
Speaker 1: the first part I was saying, how do you evaluate
Speaker 1: how Carson performed today? As you know, in terms of
Speaker 1: recovering from those interceptions. I saw a lot of leadership.
Speaker 1: I saw a big boy uh football from eleven. You know, Um,
Speaker 1: you never want to turn the ball over again. Um.
Speaker 1: I had a mistake last week too, But it's all
Speaker 1: about how how you go about the game the rest
Speaker 1: of the game. And I thought he fought fought his
Speaker 1: ass off the rest of the game too, and gave
Speaker 1: us a chance to get a w Christian and then
Speaker 1: Martin Frank eight Miles. When we talked with you earlier
Speaker 1: this week, you had mentioned that um uh Juice had
Speaker 1: said something about the the eye candy when it came
Speaker 1: to this defensive front from the Bengals. Um, what what what?
Speaker 1: What did you see that you were able to do
Speaker 1: again Cincinnati's day? Um, as far as protection wise, they
Speaker 1: didn't bring all the exotic looks that they that were
Speaker 1: doing these last two weeks in previous years. Uh. They
Speaker 1: they're saw, They're Saw blitz team. They liked the blitz
Speaker 1: off the edge. They're bringing one guy on one side
Speaker 1: and we were slying to them and they had another
Speaker 1: guy on the left. So, um, I'm keeping my eyes
Speaker 1: on both sides just in case, you know. But they
Speaker 1: just they just like this. The skuys a lot of
Speaker 1: stuff and they didn't really do too much Martin and
Speaker 1: then Paul Downald ch Hey, Miles, it seemed like Carson
Speaker 1: had you open deep and just kind of over three
Speaker 1: there early in the fourth quarter. I mean, did where
Speaker 1: did you see on that play? And it seems like
Speaker 1: if you guys I connected, that would have gone for
Speaker 1: a touchdown. Do you think that's the case? I believe so, Um,
Speaker 1: you know, Uh, it's just a tough you know. I
Speaker 1: don't know if he was getting pressured or anything, but
Speaker 1: you know, Uh, well we'll get it again, man. Um,
Speaker 1: I take the blame for it. You know, I could
Speaker 1: have ran on my route uh faster and maybe I
Speaker 1: would have got there. But you know, there's a lot
Speaker 1: of stuff that all of us as a team can
Speaker 1: look at and just to grow from it. Tamo and
Speaker 1: then Zach Burman. Yeah, Miles, I wanted to ask you
Speaker 1: about losing Dallas early in the game. He's such an
Speaker 1: important part of both your run game and your past game.
Speaker 1: Looked like after he was out, you guys probably played
Speaker 1: more eleven personnel than you probably had intended. Just how
Speaker 1: big a loss was that, Uh, I don't think it
Speaker 1: was a big losses his next man, next man up
Speaker 1: mentality over here, So I don't think it was a loss.
Speaker 1: We got rich. He stepped in and did out of
Speaker 1: a job too. So um, it's next man up over here,
Speaker 1: Zach and then John McMullin it Miles. After the penalty
Speaker 1: on the field goal, what did you guys want to
Speaker 1: do on the sideline? Did you want to go for
Speaker 1: it on fourth and twelve? Uh? No, Um, I guess
Speaker 1: it's not up to us. It's up to the coaches,
Speaker 1: you know, and we're gonna trust whatever the coaches coach
Speaker 1: decision makes so um, but we were in a perfect
Speaker 1: position to kick the field goal hopefully in the game.
Speaker 1: But you know, penalties hurt us and we can't put
Speaker 1: ourselves in those tough situations like that. We have time
Speaker 1: for two more, so let's go John McMullan and then
Speaker 1: Ed Kratz. Hey Miles, you mentioned that next man up
Speaker 1: on chiality, which I understand. But when you lose Dallas
Speaker 1: and de Shaun before or halftime, did you notice the
Speaker 1: shift in what you guys plan to do? Did you
Speaker 1: have to do a number of things a little bit
Speaker 1: differently because those are two proven players. Actually, don't think
Speaker 1: we had to do anything different or anything was different.
Speaker 1: We still had a chance to win the game. And
Speaker 1: that's aught I really matters. Don't matter who's in there.
Speaker 1: Everybody has to do the job and it's just as
Speaker 1: simple as that. Go ahead, And hey Miles, this was
Speaker 1: a defense given up one hundred and eighty five yards
Speaker 1: on the ground. I know you guys had one hundred
Speaker 1: and seventy five A lot of Carson Wentz yards in
Speaker 1: there with sixty five. Do you think you could have
Speaker 1: done more or would you have liked to have touched
Speaker 1: the ball a little bit more In the run game, again,
Speaker 1: I'm rusting the coaches with the play calling, whatever it's called.
Speaker 1: In the huddle, we're gonna run it. I have rusting them,
Speaker 1: they have chusting me. So whenever they want to put
Speaker 1: the battle in my hand, I'm gonna do what I
Speaker 1: gotta do. And whenever they want to pass it, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna block my ass off or get open for Corson.
Speaker 1: So it's just just like that. Thanks Miles. Clearly a
Speaker 1: guy ready to go to war for his quarterback, and
Speaker 1: I love to see that from Miles. Sanders his stats
Speaker 1: today eighteen carries ninety five yards for an average a
Speaker 1: five point three yards per carry. And fran I'm gonna
Speaker 1: turn to you. We just heard from a lot of
Speaker 1: different players. Did anything really stand out to you. I
Speaker 1: touched on some of the high points kind of between them,
Speaker 1: But what's kind of your big takeaway just from how
Speaker 1: they're handling this tie, Well, it certainly seems like this
Speaker 1: group is still tight knit. You know, nobody is throwing
Speaker 1: anybody under the bus. It's next man up. Players are
Speaker 1: backing up the coaches. Players are backing up other players,
Speaker 1: and that's what you you know, you want to see, uh,
Speaker 1: you know, as they you know, if you if your ownership,
Speaker 1: if you're the front office, if you're the coaching staff,
Speaker 1: You're looking at these players. How do they respond to
Speaker 1: this afterwards? And you know they're going to find out
Speaker 1: this week how they're going to respond to this start
Speaker 1: O two and one. But in the immediate aftermath, well,
Speaker 1: we've seen a positive sign so far. Absolutely, And I
Speaker 1: think some of the things that Brandon Graham had to say,
Speaker 1: which you know he usually is a real good way
Speaker 1: to kind of get your temperature of the locker room,
Speaker 1: and he also kind of sets that temperature that he's saying. Look,
Speaker 1: I'm not happy about it, but I'm proud of how
Speaker 1: we fought, especially referencing that goal line stand at the
Speaker 1: end to hold to hold the Bengals to a field
Speaker 1: goal not a touchdown. He said that could have been
Speaker 1: a loss. We've been underdogs ever since I got here,
Speaker 1: and I think that's kind of a really good way
Speaker 1: to capture Look, this is not a win, so there's
Speaker 1: absolutely frustration, but they did continue to fight, especially when
Speaker 1: you look at the defense and the way they made
Speaker 1: all those stops down the stretch. Yeah, and that's something
Speaker 1: you know, all of these things are fine to say
Speaker 1: right now, and it's about you know, you got to
Speaker 1: get you say what you need to say, you do
Speaker 1: what you need to do to get through the next
Speaker 1: forty eight hours, seventy two hours. But now we got
Speaker 1: to turn the page to San Francisco and you say,
Speaker 1: all right, how do we take these mistakes that we
Speaker 1: made this week, we made last week, that we made
Speaker 1: the week before, we got to start stock and wins here.
Speaker 1: You know, it's you need all of the guys to
Speaker 1: be able to stay together. Now it's now we've got
Speaker 1: to take that next step, correct these mistakes and get
Speaker 1: to week four. Well, I'm with what Jalen Mills said
Speaker 1: about that, we're coming in on Tuesday. We're looking at
Speaker 1: the mistakes and we're fixing those. We are not looking
Speaker 1: at the stuff that we did well. All right, We're
Speaker 1: going to take a quick break. On the other side,
Speaker 1: we have the Rico Review France going to be breaking
Speaker 1: down a play from this game, as well as the
Speaker 1: Toyota Player of the Week nominees. Stay with us. This
Speaker 1: does not look like a discount sofa. It's not everything.
Speaker 1: I Zella's quality furniture, and I give you a discount
Speaker 1: Bob's discount. Interesting, I remember this for as long as
Speaker 1: I live. Boop, it looks so young. Do you remember
Speaker 1: it's not discount furniture. It's quality furniture at our discount
Speaker 1: Bob's discount only at Bob's Discount Furniture. And welcome back
Speaker 1: to the postgame Show presented by Rigo, And it is
Speaker 1: time for the Rigo Review with fran Duffy. He's going
Speaker 1: to break down a play from this game, the Eagles
Speaker 1: against the Bengals. Let's take a look, all right, Let's
Speaker 1: take a look at the touchdown from Carson Wentz to
Speaker 1: Greg Ward at the end of the first half to
Speaker 1: give the Eagles the lead. And really, this is a
Speaker 1: well designed play against the coverage that the Bengals are
Speaker 1: running here and then kind of get caught. And let's
Speaker 1: listen real quick, show you what I mean. The Eagles
Speaker 1: had just brought Deontay Burnett in motion from left to
Speaker 1: right that brought this safety across the field. Okay, so
Speaker 1: he followed the receiver Deontay Burnett. Now, now he's trying
Speaker 1: to disguise the fact that they're in Cover two breeze
Speaker 1: pre snap. They have a single high safety in the
Speaker 1: middle of the field, but they're actually going to rotate
Speaker 1: him out to this way, and this safety is going
Speaker 1: to be very late getting to his responsibility in the
Speaker 1: deep half of the field. That's important because that's where
Speaker 1: this receiver, Greg Ward is gonna be running. Greg Ward
Speaker 1: is just gonna be running a simple vertical route. The ball, really,
Speaker 1: in theory, should be going to Deontay Burnett. Typically, when
Speaker 1: you run this level of concept, it's called a three
Speaker 1: level stretch. It's been a staple of the Doug Peterson
Speaker 1: offense really since he's been here in Philadelphia. It's almost
Speaker 1: always meant to go to this number two receiver running
Speaker 1: the intermediate route. But when Carson Wentz sees that this
Speaker 1: safety is late to get over the top, he throws
Speaker 1: a bullet to Greg Ward running that vertical route. So
Speaker 1: we're gonna let this play, and I want you to
Speaker 1: just watch that safety is late to get there. Carson
Speaker 1: Wentz reads the field, see out quickly. He pulls the trigger.
Speaker 1: Here hits Greg Ward in the turkey hole and he's
Speaker 1: able to get home for a touchdown. Eagles take the lead.
Speaker 1: Great play design, great play recognition by Carson Wentzon, a
Speaker 1: great throw. Nice job by everybody across the board on
Speaker 1: the Eagles offense. And now is your chance to vote
Speaker 1: for the Toyota Player of the Week. Go to Philadelphia
Speaker 1: Eagles dot com slash Toyota Player of the Week to
Speaker 1: cast your vote and get a chance and a brand
Speaker 1: new Toyota. This week's nominees Brandon Graham, Miles Sanders, and
Speaker 1: Greg Ward and guys, I am once again for the
Speaker 1: second week in a row, going with Brandon Graham as
Speaker 1: a my pick, and he has two of the eight
Speaker 1: sacks on Joe Burrows to on Joe Burrow today, along
Speaker 1: with four quarterback hits, four four quarterback hits, three tackles
Speaker 1: for a loss, and then sixteen yards in those sacks.
Speaker 1: So that is my pick, of course. Brand we just
Speaker 1: saw Miles Sanders, the subject of the Rico review. He
Speaker 1: is also a nominee. Who are you going to be
Speaker 1: taking for your pick here? To me, it would be
Speaker 1: Brandon Graham, and you know I would also give a
Speaker 1: nod to Fletcher Cox Malik Jackson not hire defensive line.
Speaker 1: What they were able to do in this game. I
Speaker 1: can't wait to go back and watch the film of
Speaker 1: the defense to see what they were able to get
Speaker 1: done up front. Because we had talked a lot about
Speaker 1: the lack of pressure last week against the Bootleg and
Speaker 1: you know, Jared Goff moving outside the pocket, you weren't
Speaker 1: going to get that this week with Joe Burrow, he
Speaker 1: was going to stay in that pocket. The Eagles were
Speaker 1: able to get home. Obviously, we talked about eight sacks.
Speaker 1: Brandon Graham to me, is just representative of the defense
Speaker 1: here in this poll. Greg Ward, Miles Sanders, they had
Speaker 1: nice games, but I'm gonna go with the defense here.
Speaker 1: They really held up the end of the bargain in
Speaker 1: this matchup. And when I said Miles Sanders, I meant
Speaker 1: greg Ward was the subject of the recur review. Everyone
Speaker 1: knew what I meant. All right, who is who's your
Speaker 1: pick for today? Well, that's making unanimous. We gotta stay
Speaker 1: on the defensive side of the ball. Fran touched on everything.
Speaker 1: I mean, when you have eight sacks the way that
Speaker 1: they did, and more importantly, I like the way they
Speaker 1: played late in the game. You know, being able to
Speaker 1: hold Cincinnati to a three to a field goal try
Speaker 1: instead of allowance Nettie to get that touchdown and really
Speaker 1: put the game away. Hats all to the defense for that,
Speaker 1: and then multiple opportunities in overtime where they got the
Speaker 1: offense to ball bank. So it's great of a game
Speaker 1: that Miles Sanders had today. I think the defense with
Speaker 1: eight sacks needs to be represented, and who better to
Speaker 1: represent them than Brandon Graham agree, it's unanimous. I love
Speaker 1: it all right. I'm gonna say thank you to both
Speaker 1: of you, and thank you to all of you. We
Speaker 1: will be back here next week as we look ahead
Speaker 1: two with the next matchup. The Eagles will be on
Speaker 1: the road Sunday night football against the San Francisco forty
Speaker 1: nine Ers, a team that is now two and one
Speaker 1: after eight thirty six to nine win over the Giants. Today,
Speaker 1: we will be right here with the kickoff show presented
Speaker 1: by Exalted at seven thirty five pm. This is a
Speaker 1: bang up Niners team. They're playing without a lot of
Speaker 1: their players as well, so a lot of injuries for
Speaker 1: both teams. Should be a very exciting matchup and we
Speaker 1: will of course be discussing it all week long here
Speaker 1: on Philadelphia Eagles dot com. All right, until then, have
Speaker 1: a good week. We'll see you next time.
