WEBVTT - Eagles 360: News On The Injury Front 0:00:33.640 --> 0:00:36.320 It is bye week, blue time, and we're here to 0:00:36.360 --> 0:00:38.480 talk about it with you. We welcome you to Eagles 0:00:38.479 --> 0:00:41.279 three sixty Eagles insider Dave Spiderow along with the Hall 0:00:41.320 --> 0:00:44.560 of Famer Brian Westbrook and Eagles letting one go on 0:00:44.640 --> 0:00:47.879 Sunday night. Well, maybe maybe I'm being optimistic. I felt 0:00:47.920 --> 0:00:51.080 the Eagles, Brian, despite the drop passes and the challenges 0:00:51.080 --> 0:00:53.120 in the red zone and the defense that gave up 0:00:53.159 --> 0:00:55.000 a bunch of yards on the ground, I still felt 0:00:55.000 --> 0:00:57.240 in the second half this was a game that you 0:00:57.320 --> 0:00:59.240 gotta go win. Well, you look at the first half. 0:00:59.280 --> 0:01:03.200 Year down by a close situation, one possession game. You 0:01:03.320 --> 0:01:05.880 have to have great play, but you can't make the 0:01:05.959 --> 0:01:08.200 mistakes that the Eagles made. They made too many mistakes, 0:01:08.280 --> 0:01:10.319 especially in the second half. Therefore you they don't win 0:01:10.319 --> 0:01:12.520 the game. It's incredible a win on Sunday night. We're 0:01:12.560 --> 0:01:15.000 sitting here, we're glowing, and we're feeling great about a 0:01:15.000 --> 0:01:17.600 four and three Eagles team. Now at three and four, 0:01:17.880 --> 0:01:21.360 there are so many questions about this football team. As 0:01:21.400 --> 0:01:23.679 they take the rest of this week off and rest 0:01:23.760 --> 0:01:27.000 and then get ready for the Dallas Cowboys two Sundays 0:01:27.080 --> 0:01:29.319 from now. The Eagles at three and four with an 0:01:29.319 --> 0:01:32.600 offense that continues to have the same problems drop passes, 0:01:32.959 --> 0:01:37.080 inconsistency in the red zone, Sam Bradford still not all 0:01:37.200 --> 0:01:40.520 there in terms of a sixty minute game, slow starts. 0:01:41.360 --> 0:01:43.399 Brian will get into the offense here, but just a 0:01:43.440 --> 0:01:47.360 quick thought on how you view this offense after seven games. Yeah, 0:01:47.400 --> 0:01:49.360 they're not the offense that we kind of signed up for. 0:01:49.840 --> 0:01:51.880 They can do so much better, but they can control 0:01:51.960 --> 0:01:54.160 these things. If they catch some of those balls, it's 0:01:54.160 --> 0:01:56.200 a different game. If they make some of those blocks, 0:01:56.240 --> 0:01:58.480 it's a different game. You know. You hate to say 0:01:58.520 --> 0:02:01.200 it comes down to execution, but suitfully it does. Do 0:02:01.280 --> 0:02:03.200 you ever go through a stage in your career where 0:02:03.200 --> 0:02:06.440 you drop three or four passes? Yeah, dropping passes begins 0:02:06.480 --> 0:02:09.240 to become contagious for some guys. I think you have 0:02:09.280 --> 0:02:11.000 to get back on that jug machine. You have to 0:02:11.040 --> 0:02:13.880 focus on looking the ball all the way into the tub. 0:02:14.040 --> 0:02:16.680 But the most thing you have to mentally understand, I 0:02:16.840 --> 0:02:19.160 have to cast the ball, allow yourself to be natural, 0:02:19.240 --> 0:02:21.280 don't put so much pressure on yourself. A lot to 0:02:21.280 --> 0:02:23.720 talk about the rest of the way here. First, though, 0:02:23.880 --> 0:02:26.520 Chip Kelly meeting the media on this Monday and we've 0:02:26.560 --> 0:02:29.640 got your Eagles three sixty update. Alex Smith out on 0:02:29.639 --> 0:02:33.320 the training field. Hi everyone, I'm Alex Smith here with 0:02:33.360 --> 0:02:35.880 your three sixty update. We are one day removed from 0:02:35.880 --> 0:02:38.080 the eagles twenty seven to sixteen loss at the hands 0:02:38.080 --> 0:02:40.560 of the Carolina Panthers. Today we heard from Eagles head 0:02:40.600 --> 0:02:43.200 coach Chip Kelly here at the Novicare Complex and one 0:02:43.240 --> 0:02:45.200 of the biggest questions on the minds of fans today 0:02:45.480 --> 0:02:48.560 is why Ryan Matthews was limited last night after rushing 0:02:48.600 --> 0:02:51.240 for ninety seven yards on just six carries, and today 0:02:51.320 --> 0:02:53.919 Kelly explained that it was a groin injury that slowed 0:02:53.960 --> 0:02:57.360 Matthews down. Ryan was hurt yesterday and so when I 0:02:57.360 --> 0:02:58.960 talked to Deuce about it, and we talk about all 0:02:58.960 --> 0:03:01.399 the time as hurts growing on a twenty two yard 0:03:01.440 --> 0:03:04.400 run before he broke the long run and really couldn't go. 0:03:04.440 --> 0:03:06.200 So Deuces monitor him on the sideline what he could 0:03:06.240 --> 0:03:08.640 do and what he couldn't do, so kind of pulled by. 0:03:08.800 --> 0:03:10.720 When he pulled by, Keikley, he said he felt it again. 0:03:10.720 --> 0:03:11.760 He didn't think he was gonna make it in the 0:03:11.840 --> 0:03:14.480 end zone. So and then Deuce monitor him after that. 0:03:14.520 --> 0:03:16.600 So Deuces dealing with that in terms of whether he 0:03:16.600 --> 0:03:17.920 can't go in the game after that or can't go 0:03:17.960 --> 0:03:19.400 in the game after that. We used him a little bit, 0:03:19.440 --> 0:03:21.320 but you know, that's really the whole status of the 0:03:21.400 --> 0:03:23.320 whole thing. So I'll tell you guys exactly what's going on. 0:03:24.160 --> 0:03:26.800 The Eagles were also played last night by a number 0:03:26.800 --> 0:03:29.720 of costly drops, and today Kelly explained that after the 0:03:29.720 --> 0:03:31.880 game he told his team that he still believes this 0:03:31.960 --> 0:03:34.080 is a very good football team. They just have a 0:03:34.120 --> 0:03:37.000 few things they need to clean up. Now. I mean, 0:03:37.040 --> 0:03:38.520 I've told our guys after the game, I think we're 0:03:38.520 --> 0:03:41.640 a good football team. We just we need to clean 0:03:41.720 --> 0:03:44.480 things up. You know. I think we had two procedural 0:03:44.520 --> 0:03:46.880 penalties that that hurt drives. You know. We had a 0:03:46.920 --> 0:03:48.640 first down that was called back because we had no 0:03:48.760 --> 0:03:52.600 legal procedure. We had to hold two uncharacteristic special teams 0:03:52.600 --> 0:03:54.600 penalties that we normally don't get. One of them, we 0:03:54.640 --> 0:03:56.600 had the ball pinned on the fair catch on the 0:03:56.600 --> 0:03:58.200 twelve yard line, but now the drive gets out and 0:03:58.200 --> 0:04:00.040 starts in the twenty seven because we have a on 0:04:00.160 --> 0:04:04.000 sportsmanlike conduct penalty. Um. We had two encroachment penalties which 0:04:04.000 --> 0:04:05.440 we haven't had in our d line. I think they've 0:04:05.440 --> 0:04:08.720 been very disciplined. So, um, you know it's again it's 0:04:08.800 --> 0:04:11.080 it's uh, we're close. But when you're playing a really 0:04:11.080 --> 0:04:13.160 good football team like Carolina, close isn't good enough. You 0:04:13.200 --> 0:04:16.120 gotta you gotta started, stop getting in your own way 0:04:16.160 --> 0:04:21.200 and and stop stopping yourselves. Some good news for the Eagles' 0:04:21.200 --> 0:04:23.480 is that starting left tackle Jason Peters, who went down 0:04:23.560 --> 0:04:26.640 with back spasms last night in Carolina, should be good 0:04:26.640 --> 0:04:29.320 to go when the team returns to training next Tuesday 0:04:29.560 --> 0:04:33.000 as they get set for the Dallas Cowboys. Um, you 0:04:33.040 --> 0:04:34.839 know they'll see him when monitor them this week. I 0:04:34.839 --> 0:04:37.200 think some of those guys, we'll all stay here, the 0:04:37.240 --> 0:04:38.800 guys that need to get treatment, and I'll stay here 0:04:38.839 --> 0:04:41.279 with where Chris and get treatment. But they said that 0:04:41.720 --> 0:04:43.360 from what I understand, it should be good, good to 0:04:43.400 --> 0:04:46.719 go for next Tuesday. Saw for all your latest Eagles 0:04:46.800 --> 0:04:49.120 news throughout the bye week, be sure to keep it 0:04:49.240 --> 0:04:53.839 right here on Philadelphia Eagles dot com. Thanks so much, Alex. 0:04:53.880 --> 0:04:56.000 We are going to talk about the Eagles defense that 0:04:56.320 --> 0:04:59.440 gave up more than two hundred rushing yards to a 0:04:59.680 --> 0:05:02.200 very good Carolina run game. But when we return to 0:05:02.240 --> 0:05:04.920 Eagles three sixty. Next up, we are going to talk 0:05:04.960 --> 0:05:09.479 about the offense, which continues to show some good things. 0:05:09.520 --> 0:05:12.640 To step forward, three steps back. That's been the theme 0:05:12.880 --> 0:05:15.400 through seven games for this Eagles offense, and Brian and 0:05:15.400 --> 0:05:17.720 I will talk about it when we return. In just 0:05:17.800 --> 0:05:27.479 one moment, even ordinary moments become milestones when you've overcome cancer. 0:05:28.200 --> 0:05:31.520 At Jefferson's Sydney Kimmel Cancer Center, if we had a 0:05:31.560 --> 0:05:35.200 marker for every patient we treated who is now cancer free, 0:05:35.839 --> 0:05:40.240 markers would be everywhere evidence that our personalized approach to 0:05:40.320 --> 0:05:43.760 cancer treatment is producing some of the highest survival rates 0:05:43.760 --> 0:05:49.040 in the nation. And that's a milestone for everyone Jefferson, 0:05:49.800 --> 0:05:56.839 until every cancer is cured. I got tickets, Metro tickets. 0:05:56.880 --> 0:05:59.159 You need a Metro tickets? Talk to me, please, I 0:05:59.160 --> 0:06:03.840 don't even know even tickets just doesn't touch it. This 0:06:04.040 --> 0:06:05.760 leather legit, I mean, how do we really know? It 0:06:05.760 --> 0:06:09.960 looks good? Right? No, I'm paying myself. I gotta make gramary. 0:06:10.600 --> 0:06:12.159 Does the baby need a Metro ticket? I'll give her 0:06:12.200 --> 0:06:14.080 one on me. These tickets they're not stealing your soul. 0:06:14.200 --> 0:06:15.880 You can look at them. Man. Nobody wants to buy 0:06:15.880 --> 0:06:17.680 tickets from a guy in the street. I don't understand. 0:06:22.839 --> 0:06:25.200 I've just arrived in that Natza and I can't wait 0:06:25.240 --> 0:06:27.360 to start telling people. I'll switching to Geico, who could 0:06:27.400 --> 0:06:30.120 save the munches of dollars on carr and chores. But 0:06:30.279 --> 0:06:37.840 first my luggage there is excuse me, sir, I think 0:06:37.880 --> 0:06:41.080 you've got the wrong bag. Sorry, I'll look alike. You know, 0:06:42.360 --> 0:06:46.760 no worries, well cause here I can't save people money 0:06:46.800 --> 0:06:49.919 chatting at the baggage claim all day. Geico, fifteen minutes 0:06:49.960 --> 0:06:52.440 could save you fifteen percent or more on car insurance. 0:06:56.440 --> 0:06:58.920 Were welcome you back as he goes three sixty Dave Spidery, 0:06:59.040 --> 0:07:02.520 Brian Westbrook. Let's talk about the Eagles offense Sunday night. Brian, 0:07:02.560 --> 0:07:04.919 we saw Sam Bradford. I thought maybe he played his 0:07:05.240 --> 0:07:09.480 best game, considering the pressure he was under. The comeback route, 0:07:09.920 --> 0:07:13.200 the Eagles dropping passes, the run game with Ryan Matthews 0:07:13.280 --> 0:07:16.640 very successful. You're take in a global sense of the offense. Well, 0:07:16.840 --> 0:07:19.520 I think I do agree with you. Sam Bradford. It 0:07:19.640 --> 0:07:21.520 was so many times in this football game where he 0:07:21.560 --> 0:07:23.240 had to step up in the pocket and he did 0:07:23.320 --> 0:07:25.600 do that. He threw the ball strong. I think this 0:07:25.680 --> 0:07:27.600 was the first game that I saw some zip on 0:07:27.680 --> 0:07:30.680 his balls. Some of them weren't placed perfectly, but those 0:07:30.720 --> 0:07:32.640 are some of the balls that the receivers should have caught. 0:07:32.640 --> 0:07:34.800 And so now we're talking about the receivers. They had 0:07:34.840 --> 0:07:37.280 to do a better job of helping your quarterback. Sam 0:07:37.320 --> 0:07:39.520 Bradford hasn't been great all year long, but you have 0:07:39.640 --> 0:07:41.200 to be able to help him. And he was pretty 0:07:41.200 --> 0:07:43.280 good in this game. The receivers let him down just 0:07:43.320 --> 0:07:45.160 a bit. But this run game was pretty good. One 0:07:45.240 --> 0:07:48.200 hundred and seventy seven total yards. Ryan Matthews looked good. 0:07:48.320 --> 0:07:50.800 To Marco Mary and Spots looked good. I think they 0:07:50.800 --> 0:07:52.240 need to run the ball a little bit more to 0:07:52.280 --> 0:07:54.480 help this offense continue to grow. All right, let's let's 0:07:54.520 --> 0:07:56.920 go back to the beginning of games again. A slow 0:07:56.960 --> 0:07:59.880 start for the Eagles. No touchdown again for the Eagles 0:08:00.120 --> 0:08:02.920 first half. That's four of seven games in which the 0:08:02.960 --> 0:08:05.560 Eagles have not scored a first half touchdown. And so 0:08:05.600 --> 0:08:07.720 we've been asking this question since the start of the season. 0:08:07.960 --> 0:08:10.800 How do you get the offense going early on? Is 0:08:10.800 --> 0:08:13.080 it play calling? Do you have to take some risk? 0:08:13.200 --> 0:08:15.280 You go back to basics. I mean, it's all buzzwords. 0:08:15.600 --> 0:08:17.720 I don't know, Yeah, there's a lot of different things, 0:08:17.800 --> 0:08:19.480 a lot of different ways to look at it. But 0:08:19.520 --> 0:08:21.280 I think you have to take some risks early on 0:08:21.360 --> 0:08:22.960 in the game. I think you have to get some 0:08:23.040 --> 0:08:25.360 different players involved to get the balls in their hands 0:08:25.440 --> 0:08:27.640 with your play calls early in the game. You have 0:08:27.680 --> 0:08:30.000 to understand if you want this offense to get going, 0:08:30.040 --> 0:08:31.400 you have to be able to run the ball early, 0:08:31.520 --> 0:08:33.319 and that may call for Ryan Matthews to get in 0:08:33.360 --> 0:08:35.400 a little bit earlier in the game. How do you 0:08:35.559 --> 0:08:39.680 handle this running back situation there? DeMarco Murray eighteen carries, 0:08:39.760 --> 0:08:42.839 Ryan Matthews with six carries, it is clear that from 0:08:42.840 --> 0:08:46.960 an explosive run standpoint, Ryan Matthews has had more in 0:08:47.080 --> 0:08:50.600 seven games this season. Do the Eagles in some way 0:08:50.880 --> 0:08:53.040 go back to more Ryan Matthews? Do you try to 0:08:53.080 --> 0:08:55.920 go more fifty fifty? If you do that, would there 0:08:55.960 --> 0:08:57.680 be a division in the locker room? Would you have 0:08:57.679 --> 0:09:00.800 a sulking running back? I mean, how do you handle 0:09:01.840 --> 0:09:04.439 Eagles of in the locker room here? I think at 0:09:04.480 --> 0:09:07.160 this point in the season, you're talking about winning games, 0:09:07.200 --> 0:09:09.000 and so if you're talking about winning games, I had 0:09:09.000 --> 0:09:11.040 to put my best players on the field the most 0:09:11.080 --> 0:09:13.560 time as possible, and so if that's getting closer to 0:09:13.679 --> 0:09:16.600 fifty fifty, that's what you have to do. And this game, 0:09:16.679 --> 0:09:19.440 Ryan Matthews had six carries to the Marca Murray's eighteen, 0:09:19.480 --> 0:09:22.200 and so the vision of labor was so far off. 0:09:22.320 --> 0:09:25.559 It doesn't seem fair, especially because Ryan Matthews was so productive. 0:09:25.679 --> 0:09:27.600 I think the answer is you have to get closer 0:09:27.600 --> 0:09:30.280 to fifty percent, and then at that time, whoever has 0:09:30.320 --> 0:09:32.600 a hot hand, that's the guy should that should touch 0:09:32.600 --> 0:09:34.720 the ball. We'll sell Chip Kelly and do Stalely handle 0:09:34.760 --> 0:09:38.199 that moving forward. The drops by the receivers, by the 0:09:38.200 --> 0:09:41.040 tight ends and by the running backs have been an 0:09:41.080 --> 0:09:44.079 issue the entire season, and nobody in the locker room 0:09:44.080 --> 0:09:46.360 after the game on Sunday night had an answer for 0:09:46.559 --> 0:09:49.240 why the drops. What's going on? Is it mental? Is 0:09:49.240 --> 0:09:52.800 it physical? Is it just a matter of being too intense? 0:09:53.000 --> 0:09:55.079 Is it a matter of not understanding where the ball's 0:09:55.120 --> 0:09:57.600 coming from or Sam's throw. I don't have an answer, Brian. 0:09:57.640 --> 0:09:59.199 We've been talking about it all year. I mean, you're 0:09:59.360 --> 0:10:01.920 you're the guy. You know when you get to this level. 0:10:02.480 --> 0:10:04.160 I know these guys can catch the ball. So I'm 0:10:04.160 --> 0:10:06.400 not I'm not thinking that's a physical problem. These guys 0:10:06.440 --> 0:10:08.040 can catch the ball. They spend a lot of times 0:10:08.040 --> 0:10:10.920 on the jug machine. They've caught thousands of passes throughout 0:10:10.920 --> 0:10:13.960 the career. This is a mental thing dropping passes. It 0:10:13.720 --> 0:10:16.440 gets it becomes contagious from wide receivers to wide receiver. 0:10:16.720 --> 0:10:18.480 Now you start to get in your head. So when 0:10:18.559 --> 0:10:20.520 Jordan Matthews drops the ball in the first game or 0:10:20.520 --> 0:10:22.480 a second game, now the third and fourth game, he's 0:10:22.480 --> 0:10:25.439 thinking about dropping the football. Now when Josh Huff sees 0:10:25.520 --> 0:10:27.640 Jordan Matthews dropped the ball, he's starting to think about it. 0:10:27.640 --> 0:10:29.920 And so that's what happens with this football team. It 0:10:30.040 --> 0:10:32.120 starts to get in your head. Hopefully this bike that 0:10:32.200 --> 0:10:34.320 comes at a pretty good time for this football team. 0:10:34.400 --> 0:10:36.720 They're able to figure things out. I ask Jordan Matthews 0:10:36.720 --> 0:10:39.280 after the game, and I said, Jordan, with this bye week, 0:10:39.320 --> 0:10:42.080 will you have an opportunity to sit back and relax 0:10:42.120 --> 0:10:44.920 and exhale and get off the jugs machine and not 0:10:45.000 --> 0:10:47.720 catch football And he goes, no, I'm gonna keep catching footballs. 0:10:47.720 --> 0:10:50.240 And you know that's the way Jordan Matthews deals with it. 0:10:50.280 --> 0:10:52.959 He's always on the machine, he's always catching passes. Sometimes 0:10:52.960 --> 0:10:54.880 you wonder maybe it's better to just step away for 0:10:54.920 --> 0:10:58.120 a few days and clear your mind. Sometimes pressure can 0:10:58.160 --> 0:11:00.640 get to guys. And you have to remember Jordan Matthews 0:11:00.679 --> 0:11:03.160 in this second year, so he's still a relatively young guy. 0:11:03.480 --> 0:11:06.240 A lot of receivers in the NFL they take a 0:11:06.280 --> 0:11:08.160 step back their second year. You've seen that a little 0:11:08.200 --> 0:11:10.160 bit with Odell Beckham up there in New York. I 0:11:10.200 --> 0:11:12.520 think Jordan Matthews just needs to get out of his 0:11:12.600 --> 0:11:14.559 own way a little bit, get out of his head. 0:11:14.679 --> 0:11:17.080 It'll be much better moving forward. Ryan. The offensive line 0:11:17.120 --> 0:11:19.880 taking a hit on Sunday night, Jason Peters goes down 0:11:19.920 --> 0:11:22.120 early in the game with back spasm. So once again 0:11:22.240 --> 0:11:25.680 the Eagles reshuffling, and they did an okay job in 0:11:26.160 --> 0:11:28.480 the in spots. The run games still got some yardists 0:11:28.480 --> 0:11:30.720 big play by Ryan Matthews late in the game, though 0:11:30.720 --> 0:11:34.800 the past protection really broke down off the edges Jared 0:11:34.840 --> 0:11:38.520 Allen and then up the middle with short This offensive line, Brian, 0:11:38.559 --> 0:11:40.800 We've talked about at all season. They seem like they 0:11:41.120 --> 0:11:43.480 get some continuity going, and the offense takes off and 0:11:43.520 --> 0:11:46.120 wins against New Orleans and New York. And when somebody 0:11:46.120 --> 0:11:48.959 goes down. It all kind of has to be a reshuffle. Yeah, 0:11:49.000 --> 0:11:51.040 it's hard for any offensive line when you have a 0:11:51.080 --> 0:11:53.880 new player coming in to be just as successful. I 0:11:53.880 --> 0:11:55.880 think Toba was doing a pretty good job at the 0:11:55.920 --> 0:11:58.400 guard position. Now you move them out to tackle, you're 0:11:58.440 --> 0:12:01.160 taking totally different steps. You're taking a different type of 0:12:01.200 --> 0:12:04.600 set opposite of the way that you normally are setting, 0:12:04.720 --> 0:12:06.880 and you're playing against one of the better defensive ends 0:12:06.880 --> 0:12:09.360 in the league over the last ten years in Jared Allen. 0:12:09.400 --> 0:12:11.480 Then the truth is is that Jared Allam was waiting 0:12:11.520 --> 0:12:13.960 for this situation. The Eagles knew they had to pass, 0:12:14.120 --> 0:12:16.040 the Panthers knew they had to pass, and so it's 0:12:16.080 --> 0:12:18.320 one dimensional team and he got out there the quarterback. 0:12:18.559 --> 0:12:21.720 So that is the conversation with the Eagles offense, and 0:12:21.800 --> 0:12:24.320 it is disappointing. After seven games, we thought much more 0:12:24.640 --> 0:12:27.480 of this Eagles offense. When we've returned to Eagles three sixty, 0:12:27.760 --> 0:12:29.960 we are going to talk about the defense, which really 0:12:29.960 --> 0:12:33.319 has carried this team through seven games on Sunday Night, 0:12:33.640 --> 0:12:36.120 not so much three takeaways and that's a good thing, 0:12:36.360 --> 0:12:38.600 but the run defense, for the first time this season, 0:12:38.920 --> 0:12:40.960 really took it on the chin. We'll talk about it 0:12:41.000 --> 0:12:48.920 in just one moment, experience the power of physical therapy 0:12:48.960 --> 0:12:52.440 and Novocare rehabilitation.

I'm Dave Spidero along with Brian Westbrook, 0:14:35.760 --> 0:14:38.560 and we are talking Eagles defense in the wake of 0:14:38.600 --> 0:14:42.280 the twenty six seventeen loss in Carolina on Sunday night. Brian, 0:14:42.400 --> 0:14:45.960 three takeaways. Let's begin with the good. The Eagles intercepting 0:14:46.040 --> 0:14:49.600 Cam Newton really aggressive, and they have continued to take 0:14:49.640 --> 0:14:52.280 the football away and set up the offense. Yeah, that's 0:14:52.320 --> 0:14:54.680 one of the best the bright spots for this defense 0:14:54.800 --> 0:14:56.480 is they're able to take the ball away and that's 0:14:56.520 --> 0:14:59.320 almost every single week they're coming up with turnover. They're 0:14:59.360 --> 0:15:02.640 making plays, especially in the secondary, and I love the 0:15:02.640 --> 0:15:04.720 way that these guys are physical, but they're also taking 0:15:04.760 --> 0:15:06.480 the ball away. That's going to help this team in 0:15:06.480 --> 0:15:10.520 the future. On the downside, Carolina scores on its first 0:15:10.520 --> 0:15:13.240 possession of the game, a touchdown, and then they come 0:15:13.240 --> 0:15:15.280 back at the start of the second half and take 0:15:15.320 --> 0:15:18.360 the opening kickoff and go down the field for another touchdown. 0:15:18.520 --> 0:15:21.960 Opponents have scored four of seven times with their opening 0:15:22.000 --> 0:15:24.320 possessions and that is not the way you want to 0:15:24.360 --> 0:15:27.600 set the tone. So I ask you, while this defense 0:15:27.680 --> 0:15:29.480 is taking the football away and generally done a good 0:15:29.560 --> 0:15:32.840 job in the run game, your assessment of the group overall, 0:15:32.880 --> 0:15:36.360 what are they missing to be elite? Well, I think 0:15:36.520 --> 0:15:38.800 you know when you include some of the injuries, especially 0:15:38.800 --> 0:15:41.520 at the linebacker position, this defense has done a pretty 0:15:41.560 --> 0:15:44.320 decent job. They're taking the ball away. It's the key 0:15:44.480 --> 0:15:46.960 opportunity that they have the key spots in the game. 0:15:47.080 --> 0:15:49.240 When you know a team wants they're run the football 0:15:49.360 --> 0:15:51.560 and you can't get a stop, that's a problem when 0:15:51.560 --> 0:15:54.240 the team is inside of the ten yard line. The 0:15:54.280 --> 0:15:56.760 Panthers were three for three inside the ten yard line. 0:15:56.800 --> 0:15:59.880 You can't allow that, especially allowing touchdowns where you're on 0:16:00.040 --> 0:16:02.760 getting field goals. Offensively, the Panthers was three for five 0:16:02.880 --> 0:16:05.360 inside the red zone, and so almost every time they 0:16:05.360 --> 0:16:07.800 were in the red zone, they're scoring touchdowns. That's the 0:16:07.840 --> 0:16:10.160 thing that the defense was doing earlier in the year 0:16:10.160 --> 0:16:12.600 that was very good. Now they're not doing that. That's 0:16:12.600 --> 0:16:14.720 what they had to pick up. This front seven has 0:16:14.720 --> 0:16:16.440 played a lot of minutes. Maybe you get them off 0:16:16.440 --> 0:16:18.240 the field a little bit. This break would come at 0:16:18.240 --> 0:16:19.880 the right time for them as well. Yeah, that road 0:16:19.920 --> 0:16:23.760 greater approach from the Panthers really really worn physical runs. 0:16:23.800 --> 0:16:25.960 They really get to the second level. And not having 0:16:26.000 --> 0:16:29.280 Demiko Ryans there as well as Michael Kendricks played in 0:16:29.320 --> 0:16:32.320 the backfield against Carolina in the run game, I think 0:16:32.320 --> 0:16:35.280 you missed Demiko Ryans. Yeah, when you have two linebackers 0:16:35.520 --> 0:16:38.440 Kendricks as well as Hicks, they're run stoppers, but they're 0:16:38.480 --> 0:16:41.040 smaller guys and so the offensive line is able to 0:16:41.080 --> 0:16:42.840 get up to them. They're able to get their hands 0:16:42.840 --> 0:16:44.840 on those linebackers, it's hard for them to get off. 0:16:44.920 --> 0:16:47.400 And then when look at the way that Jonathan Stewart 0:16:47.480 --> 0:16:49.800 runs the football, he's a physical runner, so the third 0:16:49.800 --> 0:16:52.680 and fourth quarter is critical for this defense, especially with 0:16:52.720 --> 0:16:54.960 the physical guy that was the smash mouth. To play 0:16:55.000 --> 0:16:56.920 smash mouth football with you, you have to be able 0:16:56.920 --> 0:16:58.960 to stop that. They weren't able to do it last night. Right. 0:16:59.000 --> 0:17:01.880 We talked last week about the Carolina Panthers and the 0:17:02.120 --> 0:17:04.919 priorities in the past game Greg Olsen at tight end 0:17:04.920 --> 0:17:07.240 and then Cam running the football in the run game, 0:17:07.640 --> 0:17:10.679 and yet they really had success with Ted Gain on 0:17:10.840 --> 0:17:13.280 that slant going against Nolan Carolin. It makes me think 0:17:13.320 --> 0:17:15.639 that teams have really seen that that route is working 0:17:15.680 --> 0:17:17.959 against Nolan. Yeah, especially when you have a team that 0:17:18.000 --> 0:17:19.800 wants to run the ball, the linebackers are going to 0:17:19.880 --> 0:17:22.920 be inside, something inside that's going to open up those slant, 0:17:22.960 --> 0:17:25.240 those quick slants routes in and tag again. Is one 0:17:25.240 --> 0:17:27.520 of the fastest players in the NFL, and so it's 0:17:27.560 --> 0:17:30.040 hard for a defender to not give up those deep 0:17:30.119 --> 0:17:32.720 routes to tag again and take away the quick slants. 0:17:32.720 --> 0:17:34.720 So you really have to take away one or the other, 0:17:34.880 --> 0:17:36.920 and the slants was the one thing that they gave away. 0:17:37.119 --> 0:17:38.960 There was one player that really drove me crazy. In 0:17:39.000 --> 0:17:41.439 the second half, the Panthers get the football back the 0:17:41.480 --> 0:17:44.040 Eagles score, the Panthers get the football back. They face 0:17:44.119 --> 0:17:46.600 a first and twenty and I'm thinking, all right, this 0:17:46.680 --> 0:17:49.160 is a time for the defense to really assert itself. Instead, 0:17:49.480 --> 0:17:52.080 on the very first snap, Cam Newton goes to rookie 0:17:52.160 --> 0:17:56.600 Devin Funches for twenty yards first down. Carolina ultimately scores 0:17:56.640 --> 0:17:59.639 on the drive and seizes the momentum. And for all 0:17:59.680 --> 0:18:02.399 the good things this defense has done this season, there 0:18:02.480 --> 0:18:06.840 are times Atlanta Washington on Sunday Night against Carolina when 0:18:06.880 --> 0:18:10.080 they just haven't been able to sustain momentum. Yeah, one 0:18:10.119 --> 0:18:12.639 thing that this defense has really hung their head on 0:18:12.800 --> 0:18:15.760 is not given up big plays. Yesterday they gave up 0:18:15.800 --> 0:18:18.400 seven plays of twenty yards or more, and so if 0:18:18.400 --> 0:18:20.280 you want to win, you have to give the turnovers. 0:18:20.280 --> 0:18:22.160 They did a good job that. If you want to win, 0:18:22.200 --> 0:18:23.960 you have to stop the run. They didn't do very 0:18:23.960 --> 0:18:26.120 good of that, but yesterday they gave up the big 0:18:26.160 --> 0:18:28.240 plays too, And so you can't give up the big 0:18:28.240 --> 0:18:30.440 plays and not stop the run if you want to 0:18:30.440 --> 0:18:32.200 win a football game. That's what's going to hurt this 0:18:32.320 --> 0:18:34.040 defense in the long run. So add it all off 0:18:34.040 --> 0:18:36.520 a very disappointing loss in Carolina, Eagles three and four 0:18:36.880 --> 0:18:39.080 here at the bye week. We return in just one moment. 0:18:39.080 --> 0:18:42.360 Brian and I some more talk thoughts about the Eagles. 0:18:42.560 --> 0:18:45.720 As we look ahead in this twenty fifteen regular season, 0:18:54.760 --> 0:18:57.719 a wave of game day excitement is rolling into Duncan. 0:18:57.920 --> 0:19:01.600 Taste the new Tailgator breakfast sandwich stacked with smoked sausage, 0:19:01.640 --> 0:19:05.480 fire roasted peppers and onions. America runs on Duncan. I 0:19:05.600 --> 0:19:08.919 sept to Philly. I sept the Philly. You'll step up Philly, 0:19:09.040 --> 0:19:12.920 the bus, the trolley, the train route one twenty four, 0:19:13.119 --> 0:19:16.439 root twenty three. I supped the Philly, the seventeen to training, 0:19:16.640 --> 0:19:20.440 jenkintown to her house, his house, to bet Seu's house, 0:19:20.680 --> 0:19:24.440 city Hall, FCC, Delco Media, to work, to school, to 0:19:24.720 --> 0:19:30.760 the ball, broad Street, to the game. I sept to Philly. 0:19:30.960 --> 0:19:38.639 Anywhere the tournament is there. You're here. And before you 0:19:38.680 --> 0:19:42.000
