WEBVTT - Postgame Show: Eagles Win 32-6 Against the Atlanta Falcons 0:00:02.759 --> 0:00:06.600 Welcome into the postgame show presented by Rico. I'm Gabriella 0:00:06.640 --> 0:00:10.320 d Givanni joined here with the fellas Fran Duffy, Ike Grace. 0:00:10.720 --> 0:00:13.800 Guys want to know, Yeah, as I like to say, 0:00:13.880 --> 0:00:16.080 to start my show off on Mondays, out their big 0:00:16.079 --> 0:00:21.840 Eagles win. I'll give it to us victory. Yes, there's 0:00:21.840 --> 0:00:24.560 the victory, thirty two to six. I mean, it's nice 0:00:24.600 --> 0:00:26.880 to start the season off with such a decisive win. 0:00:27.280 --> 0:00:29.000 The Eagles, I mean, on both sides of the football. 0:00:29.600 --> 0:00:32.080 Defense came out was really really impressive. The fact that 0:00:32.080 --> 0:00:35.159 they were to stop the Falcons from getting on the 0:00:35.159 --> 0:00:37.640 board early and there was just lights out from that point. 0:00:37.840 --> 0:00:40.599 And there were so many question marks going into this game. Obviously, 0:00:40.640 --> 0:00:43.920 we didn't know what to expect from a Nick Sirianni team, 0:00:44.000 --> 0:00:46.360 right We saw little glimpses in preseason, but they were 0:00:46.440 --> 0:00:48.479 keeping it very close to the chest. Same on the 0:00:48.520 --> 0:00:51.120 other side, we didn't know what to expect from Arthur Smith. 0:00:51.520 --> 0:00:54.360 So now looking at game one, the offense and the 0:00:54.400 --> 0:00:57.520 defense really clicking. What would be a word you would 0:00:57.600 --> 0:01:00.560 use to describe a Nick Sirianni team right now after 0:01:00.600 --> 0:01:04.280 Week one? Well, I would say a team that's played smart. 0:01:04.360 --> 0:01:07.120 They played hard and without a lot of preseason action. 0:01:07.520 --> 0:01:09.240 I mean, they went out there and did a fairly 0:01:09.280 --> 0:01:11.680 decent job. Now, there was some spots where you don't 0:01:11.680 --> 0:01:14.080 want penalties. That shows a little bit of rust and 0:01:14.120 --> 0:01:16.200 the lack of playing out there. I think they can 0:01:16.200 --> 0:01:18.560 clean that up as the season goes along. But I 0:01:18.640 --> 0:01:20.840 like what they did on offense, and if I'm just 0:01:20.880 --> 0:01:24.800 looking at a Nick Sirianni offensive philosophy, you know they 0:01:24.840 --> 0:01:28.040 still had the same aggressive mentality that the last coaching 0:01:28.080 --> 0:01:30.040 regime had. I thought there were some areas in the 0:01:30.040 --> 0:01:32.959 first half where I maybe would have kicked the ball, 0:01:33.040 --> 0:01:36.959 punting the ball. Thankfully he saw it aggressive. They converted 0:01:37.040 --> 0:01:39.360 on fourth down and led the points. I liked the 0:01:39.440 --> 0:01:43.120 idea of attacking and setting the temple at energetic too. 0:01:43.360 --> 0:01:45.400 All both sides. I thought you really saw a lot 0:01:45.440 --> 0:01:48.600 of really good energy from this Eagles football team. Defense. 0:01:48.720 --> 0:01:51.280 I thought they were flying to the football offensively, just 0:01:51.320 --> 0:01:53.280 guys that you've got it like good vibes watching this 0:01:53.360 --> 0:01:55.800 team right, whether it's on the field, on the sidelines, 0:01:55.840 --> 0:01:57.720 in the huddle. I thought we saw some really good things. 0:01:57.960 --> 0:02:00.720 I think we have to start with Jay Hurts, right 0:02:01.040 --> 0:02:04.600 he was the nucleus of this team throughout. He was settled, 0:02:04.880 --> 0:02:08.800 he was calm, his composure, his leadership on and off 0:02:09.160 --> 0:02:11.560 the field. I think a big thing that I noticed 0:02:11.600 --> 0:02:14.720 from Jalen Hurts was his footwork. It was clean in 0:02:14.760 --> 0:02:17.200 the pocket. His pocket presence was very strong, and that 0:02:17.320 --> 0:02:19.800 was something that people weren't really sure what they were 0:02:19.840 --> 0:02:21.639 going to get from Jalen Hurts once he entered the 0:02:21.760 --> 0:02:25.200 NFL in terms of his pocket presence and using his arm. Right, 0:02:25.240 --> 0:02:27.120 we know he can run, but I thought today he 0:02:27.160 --> 0:02:29.280 did a really good job in finding the balance in 0:02:29.320 --> 0:02:31.959 his run game and using his arm. Yeah, show poise 0:02:32.000 --> 0:02:34.200 for the most part out there. You liked the calm, 0:02:34.600 --> 0:02:37.400 cool collectiveness that which he plays with. That allows the 0:02:37.480 --> 0:02:41.880 offense to sort of play with the calming presence. They 0:02:42.000 --> 0:02:44.320 had some dribs early in the game that sort of 0:02:44.360 --> 0:02:47.760 stalled not many points being scored early, but you didn't 0:02:47.800 --> 0:02:51.000 see Jalen try to force anything. He stayed within the offense. 0:02:51.240 --> 0:02:54.360 And then in the second half and really right before halftime, 0:02:54.639 --> 0:02:57.840 he was able to use his legs to extend some draws. 0:02:57.880 --> 0:02:59.880 And when you talk about Dane Pas, we broke in 0:03:00.120 --> 0:03:02.760 down and what he would try to do to Jalen, Well, 0:03:02.880 --> 0:03:05.880 we saw a lot of different blitz packages and Jalen 0:03:06.000 --> 0:03:09.600 Hurts and his first start coming into the season as 0:03:09.600 --> 0:03:12.840 a starter, I think he passed the test with flying 0:03:12.880 --> 0:03:15.960 colors of being able to handle the pressure, picking up 0:03:15.960 --> 0:03:18.000 the blitz, knowing where to get rid of the football, 0:03:18.040 --> 0:03:21.600 and more importantly, even if there's nothing there, not turning 0:03:21.680 --> 0:03:24.960 a bad play into a disastrous play. Can we can 0:03:25.000 --> 0:03:27.160 we talk about that touchdown at the end of the 0:03:27.160 --> 0:03:29.600 first half. Yeah, I mean Dallas got you could check 0:03:29.639 --> 0:03:32.000 so many boxes off when you talk about it. His poison, 0:03:32.040 --> 0:03:34.600 the pocket, his pocket movement, he felt the rush coming 0:03:34.680 --> 0:03:37.880 from his blindside, stepped to his right, stays under control, 0:03:37.960 --> 0:03:40.680 under command, and then just delivers a laser on the 0:03:40.720 --> 0:03:43.440 money to Dallascott, I mean ridiculous, like jump out of 0:03:43.480 --> 0:03:45.720 my seat kind of touchdown throw. And you to me 0:03:45.800 --> 0:03:48.480 like that whole two minute drive was managed perfectly. They 0:03:48.520 --> 0:03:51.200 didn't rush, they didn't get too ahead of themselves, they 0:03:51.360 --> 0:03:53.440 knew there was a good sequencing of play calls, and 0:03:53.480 --> 0:03:56.000 then to finish with six before the before half, big time. 0:03:56.040 --> 0:03:57.560 Well at two minute drive, I think we learned a 0:03:57.600 --> 0:03:59.440 lot about this team in those two minutes. I think 0:03:59.480 --> 0:04:01.920 you can learn a lot about football teams and what 0:04:01.960 --> 0:04:04.720 they do in a two minute drive right before half, right, 0:04:04.920 --> 0:04:06.880 and so I think we learned how Nick Sirianni can 0:04:06.920 --> 0:04:09.560 manage a game in two minutes. I think, check right, 0:04:09.840 --> 0:04:11.960 and then we can see how that offense operates and 0:04:12.040 --> 0:04:14.960 how Jalen Hurts really commands the offense in those types 0:04:15.000 --> 0:04:18.680 of situations. No one was getting too worried, too anxious. 0:04:18.839 --> 0:04:21.520 Like you said earlier, Ike, he wasn't forcing anything. But 0:04:21.560 --> 0:04:23.480 they got the job done, found the end zone, put 0:04:23.520 --> 0:04:25.440 up some points, and when to halftime. And I know 0:04:25.520 --> 0:04:28.760 the offensive line, particularly the right side, is experienced when 0:04:28.800 --> 0:04:31.599 you talk about Lane and Brandon and Jason in the middle. 0:04:31.760 --> 0:04:33.440 But I don't think there's enough that could be said 0:04:33.480 --> 0:04:37.080 about the maturity of these young players that they showed today, 0:04:37.240 --> 0:04:41.000 starting with Jalen Hurts at the quarterback position, Davante Smith 0:04:41.640 --> 0:04:43.800 being solid catching the football. I don't think he had 0:04:43.800 --> 0:04:47.000 any drops out there today, Jalen Rager with a big touchdown, 0:04:47.120 --> 0:04:50.800 Miles Sanders with big runs, Kenny Gainwell with big runs. 0:04:51.160 --> 0:04:54.800 I'm naming all young players. There are the building blocks 0:04:54.800 --> 0:04:57.440 for nucleus here and then their first game on the 0:04:57.520 --> 0:05:01.039 road and for three quarters in the tight situation, I 0:05:01.080 --> 0:05:03.960 didn't see our young guys fold under pressure. And give 0:05:04.040 --> 0:05:06.719 Nick Sirianni a lot of credit in his first game, COOCHI, 0:05:07.080 --> 0:05:09.440 I thought he called a phenomenal game today. And even 0:05:09.560 --> 0:05:13.400 quiz Watkins three players to start the game. He felt 0:05:13.400 --> 0:05:16.000 like everybody kind of had their moment to shine here 0:05:16.040 --> 0:05:17.680 in this game. It was a lot of fun to 0:05:17.720 --> 0:05:20.920 watch this whole offense operated, very disciplined football team. Right. 0:05:20.920 --> 0:05:22.760 We hear from Nick Sirianni all the time, and he 0:05:22.800 --> 0:05:25.839 gives you all those buzzwords, all those cliches, but to 0:05:25.960 --> 0:05:28.400 actually see it come together on the field and you 0:05:28.480 --> 0:05:32.039 see a very well executed football team. And this is 0:05:32.160 --> 0:05:35.120 brand new, right, this is just newly installed, a lot 0:05:35.160 --> 0:05:37.120 of new faces on both sides of the ball. And 0:05:37.200 --> 0:05:40.000 like you said, you wouldn't really know how young the 0:05:40.040 --> 0:05:43.040 team is by the way that they played today. Jordan Malata, right, 0:05:43.320 --> 0:05:45.800 I mean three years ago, this is his story, right, 0:05:45.839 --> 0:05:47.680 he didn't know how to put football pads on. He 0:05:47.760 --> 0:05:52.120 is out there just trucking people over and he's another 0:05:52.200 --> 0:05:54.760 big part of the success of that offense today. Yeah, 0:05:54.760 --> 0:06:00.599 pockets a little heavier to day too, to me, like, 0:06:01.000 --> 0:06:02.680 even though we've talked about the offense a lot, like 0:06:02.680 --> 0:06:05.360 the defense, get the first drive fifteen plays, ends in 0:06:05.400 --> 0:06:08.200 the field goal, get off the field. Second drive fourteen plays, 0:06:08.200 --> 0:06:10.440 another field goal, get off the field. After that, it 0:06:10.480 --> 0:06:12.160 was like three and out, three and out, five and out, 0:06:12.200 --> 0:06:15.320 three and out. The way that the defense responded after earlier, 0:06:15.400 --> 0:06:16.919 you know, they were able to run the football. You 0:06:16.960 --> 0:06:19.960 saw some quick completions. The defense, to me, really really 0:06:19.960 --> 0:06:22.200 shine today's as well. I was a little worried about 0:06:22.200 --> 0:06:24.440 that defense in the beginning because those first two drives 0:06:24.480 --> 0:06:28.280 by Atlanta's offense were two seventy five yard drives. That's long. 0:06:28.360 --> 0:06:30.720 The defense is gas. This is just week one, right, 0:06:30.760 --> 0:06:33.360 so I thought this might catch up, this might catch up. 0:06:33.600 --> 0:06:36.360 But then they made the stops when it mattered, and 0:06:36.400 --> 0:06:39.320 they held Atlanta to not too many points. Yeah, I 0:06:39.400 --> 0:06:41.680 was very impressed. I know both of you have mentioned 0:06:41.800 --> 0:06:44.400 the first two drives, but they were so critical. When 0:06:44.400 --> 0:06:46.840 you start off the first game of the season and 0:06:47.040 --> 0:06:49.680 the opposing team's offense is able to march down the 0:06:49.720 --> 0:06:52.760 field on you time consuming drive out of the drives, 0:06:52.960 --> 0:06:56.279 it can be deflating. This defense bowled their necks up 0:06:56.320 --> 0:06:58.599 when they got down to the red zone, able to 0:06:58.640 --> 0:07:02.200 hold Atlanta to just field goals there. That's a victory. 0:07:02.279 --> 0:07:04.440 That's I think they were able to catch there, you know, 0:07:04.520 --> 0:07:07.440 collect themselves, catch their breath, and then from that point on, 0:07:07.839 --> 0:07:10.880 Jonathan Ganathan Jonathan Gannon sort of had a beat on 0:07:11.000 --> 0:07:14.280 what the Arthur Smith offense was gonna do. They weren't 0:07:14.280 --> 0:07:16.360 going to throw the ball down the field. They tried 0:07:16.360 --> 0:07:20.400 to establish the run. The Eagles defensive line completely dominated 0:07:20.400 --> 0:07:22.240 this game when it come to stopping the run and 0:07:22.320 --> 0:07:24.520 taking over in the second half. But those first two 0:07:24.640 --> 0:07:27.800 drives to hold Atlanta to field goals, I thought that 0:07:27.880 --> 0:07:30.680 was critical because you give up two touchdowns there. Now 0:07:30.720 --> 0:07:34.000 you're playing uphill on the road. That crowd can get 0:07:34.000 --> 0:07:36.440 into the game and it can be tough sledding for 0:07:36.520 --> 0:07:39.080 a young offense. I think those two stops by the 0:07:39.120 --> 0:07:42.400 defense allowed the Eagles offense to sort of get into 0:07:42.440 --> 0:07:43.960 the game as well. Yeah, and La you made a 0:07:44.000 --> 0:07:46.000 great point too about it being long drives and the 0:07:46.400 --> 0:07:49.040 threat of people getting gassed. Right, But what do we 0:07:49.040 --> 0:07:50.880 see You talked about all the offensive players we got 0:07:50.880 --> 0:07:54.120 to hear from. Defensively, we saw TfL by Patrick Johnson. 0:07:54.160 --> 0:07:56.720 We saw Sean Bradley getting in there for tackles behind 0:07:56.720 --> 0:07:59.440 the line of scrimmage across all three levels. Milton Williams 0:07:59.520 --> 0:08:04.280 making plays, Ryan Kerrigan out there, Hassan Ridgeway time and 0:08:04.360 --> 0:08:06.440 time again. Seeing a lot of these backups come in 0:08:06.480 --> 0:08:08.360 and contribute. I think it's really really big for the 0:08:08.400 --> 0:08:10.680 future of this football team. Well, another storyline this week, 0:08:10.680 --> 0:08:13.600 of course, was how this defense was going to adjust. 0:08:13.800 --> 0:08:16.160 You know, we talked about this being two new staffs 0:08:16.200 --> 0:08:18.920 on either side, and they didn't know what to expect, 0:08:19.000 --> 0:08:20.720 what they were going to get from a veteran like 0:08:20.760 --> 0:08:23.160 Matt Ryan, and so in the beginning it was looking 0:08:23.200 --> 0:08:25.840 a little like the defense needs to have an answer 0:08:25.920 --> 0:08:29.000 to Atlanta's run game. The Atlanta established the run game 0:08:29.040 --> 0:08:30.640 really early on, and it looked pretty good. It was 0:08:30.640 --> 0:08:33.120 working for them. Remember they don't have Julio anymore. That 0:08:33.200 --> 0:08:36.400 takes a whole threat away from Matt Ryan. Kyle Pitts. 0:08:36.480 --> 0:08:38.040 We didn't know what to expect from the rookie. He 0:08:38.080 --> 0:08:40.640 didn't do too much, he wasn't targeted too often. But 0:08:40.880 --> 0:08:43.400 the way that the defense responded and had an answer, 0:08:43.520 --> 0:08:45.840 especially in the second half, I think is a huge 0:08:45.880 --> 0:08:49.120 credit to Jonathan Gannon and the defense that he's establishing 0:08:49.160 --> 0:08:52.120 here in Philadelphia, but also the guys from the D 0:08:52.240 --> 0:08:55.280 line to the secondary, what they're doing together and they're 0:08:55.280 --> 0:08:57.920 just having fun. So yeah, I thought the D line 0:08:57.960 --> 0:09:00.559 really took this game over. They decided not gonna run 0:09:00.600 --> 0:09:02.680 the football on us, We're gonna force you to beat 0:09:02.760 --> 0:09:06.040 us throwing the ball, and the secondary stepped up today. 0:09:06.080 --> 0:09:08.679 Calvin really had some catches early in that game, and 0:09:08.720 --> 0:09:10.760 I think I checked stat line was in the middle 0:09:10.760 --> 0:09:12.800 of the fourth quarter. He still only had one catch 0:09:12.880 --> 0:09:15.480 after that opening drive of the game. So I like 0:09:15.559 --> 0:09:17.640 what our secondary was able to do. And then our 0:09:17.760 --> 0:09:20.080 D line they just were able to pin their ears 0:09:20.080 --> 0:09:22.720 back and get out of this Atlanta Falcons offensive line. 0:09:22.720 --> 0:09:25.040 We knew if the Eagles had one clear cut advantage 0:09:25.040 --> 0:09:27.520 coming into this game, it was our D line going 0:09:27.600 --> 0:09:29.880 up against that offensive line. The key was going to 0:09:29.960 --> 0:09:33.680 get them was to get them in obvious passing situations. 0:09:33.960 --> 0:09:36.760 And once the Eagles got up by two touchdowns, the 0:09:36.840 --> 0:09:39.959 Falcons couldn't run the ball anymore. And Matt Ryan, who 0:09:40.000 --> 0:09:43.480 has no mobility, not a lack of mobility, no mobility 0:09:43.880 --> 0:09:47.400 back there. This Eagle's front four knew where Matt Ryan 0:09:47.480 --> 0:09:49.120 would be at and it was a meeting at the 0:09:49.200 --> 0:09:51.440 quarterback man that that front four. I want to get 0:09:51.440 --> 0:09:53.199 ahead of myself. If they reminded me of what I 0:09:53.240 --> 0:09:57.400 saw in two seventeen when they could go where our 0:09:57.480 --> 0:10:00.600 d line was worth eight to ten deep far as 0:10:00.720 --> 0:10:03.839 rotating players and everybody stayed fresh. That's what I saw 0:10:03.920 --> 0:10:06.760 out there today, a fresh defensive line. I think it's 0:10:06.760 --> 0:10:08.720 a formula, you know. I think in years past you 0:10:08.720 --> 0:10:11.000 would say, oh, well, you know, it's dehabilitating for a 0:10:11.040 --> 0:10:14.040 defense to allow the run to take over, right offensively, 0:10:14.160 --> 0:10:16.880 But I think today's NFL, it's the big plays. It's 0:10:16.880 --> 0:10:19.080 the explosive plays that get after you, right, So it's 0:10:19.120 --> 0:10:22.040 tiring for an offense. All right, we gotta go fourteen plays, 0:10:22.040 --> 0:10:24.520 fifteen players like the Falcons did. All right, go ahead, 0:10:24.559 --> 0:10:25.800 do it again, roll the ball out. See if you 0:10:25.800 --> 0:10:27.280 can do it again, and we're gonna stop you from 0:10:27.280 --> 0:10:29.480 getting in the end zone. That's disheartening from an offensive 0:10:29.520 --> 0:10:31.280 side as well. I gotta give some love to Alex 0:10:31.320 --> 0:10:33.960 Singleton too, right, you didn't hear his name too much today, 0:10:34.120 --> 0:10:37.000 But wherever the ball is, Alex is somewhere nearby, and 0:10:37.040 --> 0:10:39.800 I think he brings such an energy to that defense, 0:10:39.840 --> 0:10:41.880 in that linebacker corps. I can't wait to see what 0:10:41.920 --> 0:10:44.040 he does this season. Yeah, you gotta get love to 0:10:44.080 --> 0:10:49.880 the LB. Eric Wilson. I'm not gonna point out could 0:10:49.880 --> 0:10:52.080 have had a tip intersection and I saw, but it's okay. 0:10:52.200 --> 0:10:55.360 He's normally around the football as well. A great start 0:10:55.400 --> 0:10:58.520 to the season on the road all teams. It's only 0:10:58.559 --> 0:11:01.319 gonna be sixteen undefeated team after this week, right, sixteen 0:11:01.360 --> 0:11:03.599 teams to win will be unless there's a tie in 0:11:03.640 --> 0:11:06.680 there somewhere. More than likely, the Eagles are sitting at 0:11:06.720 --> 0:11:08.760 the top of the division with a victory. What a 0:11:08.800 --> 0:11:10.720 great way to start off the twenty twenty one season. 0:11:10.760 --> 0:11:12.640 Ella's gonna fluff you up by bring up the linebackers. 0:11:12.640 --> 0:11:14.640 I want to bring up the special teams. How about 0:11:14.640 --> 0:11:18.640 the special teams today? Aaron Sipposs putting four punts. I 0:11:18.679 --> 0:11:20.640 thought Greg Olsen on the broadcast did a great job 0:11:20.640 --> 0:11:23.920 of pointing out Andre chacherre of what he would have 0:11:23.920 --> 0:11:26.160 got that illegal touch on the one down punt. Just 0:11:26.280 --> 0:11:29.120 really really impressive special teams execution across the board. Yeah, 0:11:29.160 --> 0:11:32.120 two two very good uh notes right there? Frand that 0:11:32.120 --> 0:11:35.600 that played to point out to the other gunners down 0:11:35.679 --> 0:11:37.559 the field and let him know you need to get 0:11:37.559 --> 0:11:39.960 the ball first. I can't touch it. I've already gone 0:11:39.960 --> 0:11:42.839 out of bounds. That's a smart football player. And then 0:11:42.880 --> 0:11:45.560 Sippas come on, man, it's awesome. Four and you said 0:11:45.640 --> 0:11:50.040 four inside fow just I mean that that that is 0:11:50.080 --> 0:11:53.120 so beneficial to a defense to know that you're gonna 0:11:53.120 --> 0:11:56.360 have the opposing team's offense pent near their end zone 0:11:56.559 --> 0:11:57.960 and you can just get out through them. I mean 0:11:58.000 --> 0:11:59.719 a great example was that too. I talked about the 0:11:59.760 --> 0:12:03.120 two gonna try offensively. That starts with the punt inside 0:12:03.160 --> 0:12:05.000 the tent and now they punt put it back to 0:12:05.000 --> 0:12:06.839 the Eagles and they start from their fifty. When you say, 0:12:06.880 --> 0:12:08.400 like flip the field, all that's like a you know, 0:12:08.440 --> 0:12:11.040 a coaching axium. That's never No, that's the hidden yard 0:12:11.040 --> 0:12:13.760 example right there. Yeah, that's the hidden yardage the special 0:12:13.760 --> 0:12:16.200 teams will do for you when you when you down 0:12:16.240 --> 0:12:19.199 the punt inside the ten like that. Like Frank, I 0:12:19.240 --> 0:12:25.080 have to cut your off. I'm sorry we have Miles. Well, 0:12:25.160 --> 0:12:28.280 I'm judging by the way you walked in here pretty good. Yeah, 0:12:28.280 --> 0:12:30.800 it feels real good, real good. A lot of energy, 0:12:30.840 --> 0:12:33.760 a lot of vibes. Um, I've been talking about it 0:12:34.160 --> 0:12:35.880 the whole time in the off season, and I love 0:12:35.920 --> 0:12:38.000 the chemistry that we got going on. And it just 0:12:38.040 --> 0:12:40.720 feels like a real family in there. So real exciting. 0:12:42.040 --> 0:12:44.480 Twice a little down and it's your pointing conversion what 0:12:44.600 --> 0:12:49.600 it mean for you know? Oh, that just shows the 0:12:49.880 --> 0:12:52.480 type of aggressiveness study has. Um. You know we're gonna 0:12:52.480 --> 0:12:55.600 play conservative conservative sometimes, you know, but you know, first game, 0:12:56.360 --> 0:12:59.080 when we know what type of line that we have, Um, 0:12:59.200 --> 0:13:01.280 you know we can go get it. So we don't 0:13:01.320 --> 0:13:09.520 have no problem taking chances on one time. Oh. Absolutely, absolutely, 0:13:09.600 --> 0:13:11.520 this is definitely what I expected, you know, and this 0:13:11.600 --> 0:13:14.000 is only beginning, only beginning, taking it one week at 0:13:14.040 --> 0:13:17.600 a time. Weren't round ones over got the dub on 0:13:17.640 --> 0:13:22.040 the San fran Sport today is that? I mean, what 0:13:22.160 --> 0:13:26.040 do you tell that many sport? Oh? I say to 0:13:26.040 --> 0:13:28.920 both of them, I say, it's it's a blessing. Man. Uh. 0:13:29.360 --> 0:13:31.640 You know, you get to this moment, You've been working 0:13:31.720 --> 0:13:33.480 so hard to get to this moment, and then it's 0:13:33.480 --> 0:13:35.160 finally here. You just gotta take advantage of it. Man. 0:13:35.200 --> 0:13:38.079 I'm really happy for Kenny because my first game I 0:13:38.160 --> 0:13:40.040 scored and they took it back, which happened to him, 0:13:40.040 --> 0:13:42.000 but he win got it back, So I'm real happy 0:13:42.040 --> 0:13:45.680 for him and DeVante too. Starting starting off with the 0:13:45.720 --> 0:13:55.160 touchdown too. So you got off the game playing is 0:13:55.240 --> 0:13:58.120 playing coming in and what do you mean, um, really 0:13:59.000 --> 0:14:00.920 try to run the ball down the throat? You know, Uh, 0:14:01.040 --> 0:14:03.640 we we start we have like an RPO, so, I 0:14:03.679 --> 0:14:06.439 mean there's a lot of different reads that goes into 0:14:06.480 --> 0:14:09.160 each run play, but every plays a run to be honest, 0:14:09.160 --> 0:14:12.080 if and if anybody don't know, but um, but yeah, 0:14:12.120 --> 0:14:14.960 this's just trying to be aggressive and attack tacked the 0:14:15.040 --> 0:14:17.600 defense as much as we can in different ways possible 0:14:19.920 --> 0:14:24.520 with with j Um, just just his will to win. 0:14:24.680 --> 0:14:26.880 You know, he don't stop. You know, he's running it, 0:14:27.240 --> 0:14:30.440 he's giving calls, giving checks. You know, he's real locked 0:14:30.480 --> 0:14:33.280 in and he's had holding everybody to the high standard. 0:14:33.280 --> 0:14:37.200 Two so and he's field general on the field. You know, 0:14:38.640 --> 0:14:42.560 how did you say he was? I think it was excellent. Obviously, 0:14:43.080 --> 0:14:45.800 it opened up the run game tremendously for for all 0:14:45.800 --> 0:14:48.080 the running backs, and um, that's that's all we can 0:14:48.080 --> 0:15:06.960 ask for. I mean we've been talking about it the 0:15:07.000 --> 0:15:10.000 whole off season. Uh, you know, people have been I'm 0:15:10.000 --> 0:15:12.800 not gonna say that, but uh, or work in practice 0:15:13.120 --> 0:15:16.520 are very very intense and fast paced. So we're really 0:15:16.520 --> 0:15:19.280 getting a lot of good work in practice. So um, 0:15:19.320 --> 0:15:21.480 despite of all the starters not playing a whole lot 0:15:21.520 --> 0:15:24.920 in a preseason, uh, not really a big deal to us, 0:15:24.960 --> 0:15:27.480 I mean type because of the type of work that 0:15:27.520 --> 0:15:37.320 we get in practice. So I think it's I think 0:15:37.320 --> 0:15:40.000 it happened as expected. We could definitely be better. You 0:15:40.040 --> 0:15:42.000 know what I'm saying, You know what I mean. But uh, 0:15:42.040 --> 0:15:45.000 like I said, good start, good dub first weekend, were 0:15:45.040 --> 0:15:58.520 just on the next week first, Um, what was well, 0:15:58.560 --> 0:16:00.960 you know, he he loves the movie clips, had a 0:16:01.000 --> 0:16:03.880 lot of movie clips last night. UM, just just telling 0:16:03.960 --> 0:16:05.680 us to have fun and just go out there and 0:16:05.720 --> 0:16:08.200 play as a family. And you know, just he's just 0:16:08.280 --> 0:16:12.040 real pumped up, real pumped up. Um and yeah, just 0:16:12.400 --> 0:16:14.960 you know, stick together. And when you all players as one, 0:16:15.160 --> 0:16:17.040 I think that was a real team team win that 0:16:17.240 --> 0:16:18.960 right there. And when you all players one, I don't 0:16:18.960 --> 0:16:26.720 think nobody can stop us. Um. I think thing now 0:16:26.760 --> 0:16:31.680 I'm on the spot out trying to remember. I can't 0:16:31.720 --> 0:16:36.760 remember right now, I can't remember. I'm sorry. As a 0:16:36.800 --> 0:16:38.160 party and still a party. And now I'm trying to 0:16:38.160 --> 0:16:46.920 get back just the beginning. You know, we got seven 0:16:47.280 --> 0:16:49.800 seventeen games now, just taking a one week at a 0:16:49.840 --> 0:17:10.880 time on the same frame. Now, yeah, yeah, I mean 0:17:10.920 --> 0:17:15.280 those those guys up there, man, those are the vets. 0:17:15.400 --> 0:17:17.480 That's all I can say. Man with Kelsey, with with 0:17:17.720 --> 0:17:20.240 Brandon Brooks, with Lane, you got Isaac and then you 0:17:20.320 --> 0:17:24.960 got m A lot of money man. Uh, I don't. 0:17:25.000 --> 0:17:26.959 I don't take none of that for branded. I mean, 0:17:27.080 --> 0:17:29.719 I think we got the best old line in the NFL. 0:17:29.800 --> 0:17:32.480 And whenever, whenever it's time to line up, they're gonna 0:17:32.480 --> 0:17:39.119 be ready no matter what the circumstances. You guys they 0:17:39.160 --> 0:17:40.720 can send. That's a bigger part of the soul and 0:17:40.760 --> 0:17:46.560 its wire as an um. I think honestly, just because 0:17:46.560 --> 0:17:49.560 we've been executing on everything else, you know, the ring 0:17:49.600 --> 0:17:52.160 game and then with Jalen pulling it opening up for 0:17:52.240 --> 0:17:54.520 us and then we're throwing the ball down the field 0:17:54.520 --> 0:17:58.160 with completing passes and we just ran it with them 0:17:58.280 --> 0:18:08.680 unexpecting it so and it happened to work perfectly. Preach 0:18:08.920 --> 0:18:14.960 one more time situation. Um, I mean, he's he's a 0:18:15.320 --> 0:18:17.239 he's able to do it. You know, everybody in our 0:18:17.320 --> 0:18:20.840 room between me, him and Boston are able to do anything. 0:18:21.359 --> 0:18:24.159 Uh you know routes coming out the backfield and the 0:18:24.200 --> 0:18:26.800 slide were all capable of doing it. And um, he 0:18:27.000 --> 0:18:30.480 just showed you know, the most efficient way of doing 0:18:30.480 --> 0:18:34.040 it and practice sot And that's just easy to him, 0:18:34.040 --> 0:18:35.960 you know. He, like I said, he has the best 0:18:36.000 --> 0:18:38.760 hands in in an argy room to me in my opinion. Um, 0:18:38.800 --> 0:18:41.359 and yeah, it's that's that's his thing. Two minutes it 0:18:41.400 --> 0:18:47.680 that's that's it. Let's say, all right, that was running 0:18:47.680 --> 0:18:51.040 back Miles Sanders. He had fifteen carries for seventy four yards. 0:18:51.080 --> 0:18:53.440 But I think the other part of that box where 0:18:53.480 --> 0:18:54.639 we need to take a look at it is his 0:18:54.960 --> 0:18:57.360 four catches for thirty nine yards. We know a huge 0:18:57.400 --> 0:19:00.159 emphasis from Nick Sirianni through camp was finding a way 0:19:00.160 --> 0:19:02.960 for these running backs to also be able to catch passes. 0:19:03.280 --> 0:19:05.960 Male singers did that today. Yeah, we know Miles as 0:19:06.000 --> 0:19:09.520 an explosive player. You give him enough touches, eventually he's 0:19:09.560 --> 0:19:11.560 gonna break one big and you saw that late in 0:19:11.560 --> 0:19:14.320 the game, the twenty three yard run that he had. 0:19:14.600 --> 0:19:16.479 But here's the thing that I'll point out that I 0:19:16.560 --> 0:19:19.280 was so much more impressed with with Miles today. His 0:19:19.440 --> 0:19:23.560 blitz pick up as protection says as much blitzen as 0:19:23.640 --> 0:19:26.800 Dean Pas did today. You were gonna need to be 0:19:26.880 --> 0:19:30.680 solid in your protection and Miles along with the other backs, 0:19:30.720 --> 0:19:32.480 even Kenney gain well when he was out there. But 0:19:32.520 --> 0:19:36.080 I noticed Miles several times with big blocks in the 0:19:36.119 --> 0:19:37.919 middle of that defense, I mean the middle of that 0:19:37.960 --> 0:19:41.000 offensive line. Nice job from him. Didn't drop any passes 0:19:41.119 --> 0:19:43.439 they called. All the balls thrown to him, ran the 0:19:43.480 --> 0:19:46.080 ball well. But I I was so much more impressed 0:19:46.280 --> 0:19:48.840 with the way that he blocked and pass protection. Yeah, 0:19:48.920 --> 0:19:50.200 if you didn't say it, I was gonna say it. 0:19:50.200 --> 0:19:52.000 We talked about it on Eagles game Plan this week. Right. 0:19:52.280 --> 0:19:54.160 One of the things that this Eagles offense was gonna 0:19:54.200 --> 0:19:56.679 have to do to keep Jalen Hurts clean was make 0:19:56.720 --> 0:19:59.120 sure that they picked everything up from a blitz pickup standpoint. 0:19:59.200 --> 0:20:01.600 A number of times on some of those Jalen hurt scrambles, 0:20:01.720 --> 0:20:03.640 Miles Sanders was able to pick a guy up. Said 0:20:03.680 --> 0:20:05.680 the locker room, they're having fun. It's a party, he said. 0:20:05.680 --> 0:20:07.919 On to San Francisco. We're gonna head back to Atlanta. 0:20:07.920 --> 0:20:23.560 We have DeVante Smith at the podium. Yeah, hyah, doing 0:20:23.600 --> 0:20:40.000 to day first. The rest of Uh, it just comes 0:20:40.000 --> 0:20:42.560 to reps. I mean, just coming to practice every day, 0:20:42.600 --> 0:20:44.960 getting your reps, getting comfortable with it, and um when 0:20:44.960 --> 0:20:46.399 they call it the play. I mean we've repped it 0:20:46.400 --> 0:20:49.200
