Speaker 1: Welcome to Eagles three sixty. On this Monday, Eagles insider
Speaker 1: Dave Spidero along with the Hall of Famer Brian Westbrook,
Speaker 1: talking about another tough loss for the Eagles twenty three
Speaker 1: to twenty on the road on Sunday at the House
Speaker 1: of Horrors, FedEx Field. What is going It's always impossible
Speaker 1: to win down there at teams with the kicking problems,
Speaker 1: the late game heroics by the Redskins, and again Brian,
Speaker 1: so many things to talk about. A tough, tough loss.
Speaker 1: Tough loss. This team has to find a way to
Speaker 1: get it together just a bit. They have to execute
Speaker 1: much better than they have been. They have to find
Speaker 1: a way to get off the field on defense and
Speaker 1: all together. They now they need to come together because
Speaker 1: they're in a position one in three. The only way
Speaker 1: that they can win football games moving forward is that
Speaker 1: they all come together collectively and do a little bit more.
Speaker 1: It's we are the buzzword in the locker room and
Speaker 1: with the coach and with everyone with Brian here, it's
Speaker 1: we have to execute better. And it becomes very difficult
Speaker 1: for fans to hear that. We don't know what that means.
Speaker 1: What does execute mean? Well? The problems are so many
Speaker 1: for this team right now, at least on Sunday. The
Speaker 1: offense scoring no points in the first half, the defense
Speaker 1: not getting off the field on third downs, the Eagles
Speaker 1: unable to hold a lead in the fourth quarter offensively,
Speaker 1: three and out defensively, a fifteen play ninety yard drive,
Speaker 1: special teams missing a field goal, and to point after Brian.
Speaker 1: When this kind of thing happens, as a player in
Speaker 1: the locker room, what goes through your mind, Well, that's
Speaker 1: tough because you're practicing all week long just to make
Speaker 1: sure that these types of things do not happen. But
Speaker 1: they happened in the game. And that's when your leaders
Speaker 1: need to step up. That's when the guys in the
Speaker 1: locker room they need to step up and say I
Speaker 1: need a little bit more from you. I need a
Speaker 1: little bit more from you. We have to come together,
Speaker 1: we have to find the way and that's the thing
Speaker 1: that has to happen this week with this football team,
Speaker 1: and if it doesn't, things can spiral out of control
Speaker 1: very quickly. And we heard a little bit of that
Speaker 1: frustration that leadership in the locker room at FedEx Field
Speaker 1: on Sunday. Jason Kelsey Connor Barwin really taking responsibility for
Speaker 1: the loss and expressing quite a bit of their disappointment.
Speaker 1: So one quarter of the season is done. We've got
Speaker 1: three quarters to go. The NFC East remains wide open
Speaker 1: thanks to the New Orleans Saints on Sunday night. Chip
Speaker 1: Kelly meeting the media on this Monday, and he's got
Speaker 1: a lot of questions to answer. Let's get you all
Speaker 1: caught up on everything happening with this football team. Alex
Speaker 1: Smith are three sixty update. Hi everyone, I'm Alex Smith
Speaker 1: with your three sixty update. The Eagles were all from
Speaker 1: practice today as they try to recover from yesterday's disappointing
Speaker 1: loss to the Washington Redskins. Today we heard from head
Speaker 1: coach Chip Kelly, who spoke once again about how execution
Speaker 1: is the key for this team and how a few
Speaker 1: players here or there could have changed the outcome in
Speaker 1: these first four games. The difference in this league right
Speaker 1: now is almost every game when you look up as
Speaker 1: a less than one score game, it's a one score
Speaker 1: game in terms of I think thirty one of the
Speaker 1: sixty two games so far have been decided by less
Speaker 1: by eight points or less. So it's a matter of
Speaker 1: making one more play than your opponent. You know, we
Speaker 1: had a touchdown call back because we lined up wrong,
Speaker 1: you know, and that's a difference in a football game.
Speaker 1: We missed an extra point, mister, field goal. That's a
Speaker 1: difference in a football game. You know, we get a
Speaker 1: completion on third down, we allow a completion on third down.
Speaker 1: That's a difference in the football game. It's it's just
Speaker 1: one play here or there, and it's it's a different
Speaker 1: story when we're sending here today's coach. Kelly also said
Speaker 1: that he doesn't believe that anyone on this team will
Speaker 1: be hanging their head after their one in three start,
Speaker 1: as he believes he has the right players in this
Speaker 1: locker room to rebound from the first four games. You
Speaker 1: just keep practicing and you keep working on it and
Speaker 1: the trust the guys you have, and I we know
Speaker 1: we have the right players here. We just it's a
Speaker 1: play here or play there. You know, we've the game
Speaker 1: by two, and we lost the game by three. We
Speaker 1: lost another game by ten. We've lost three games by
Speaker 1: fifteen points. So you know, you you you hit two
Speaker 1: kicks and we're sitting here three and one and everybody's happy.
Speaker 1: I mean there's there's no difference. Is that you either
Speaker 1: make plays or don't make plays. And if you're not
Speaker 1: making plays, you could you have to continue to work
Speaker 1: at them so you can make the plays. Next up
Speaker 1: for the Eagles is a home matchup with the New
Speaker 1: Orleans Saints, and while the Saints won just their first
Speaker 1: game the season last night, coach Kelly explained that they're
Speaker 1: one in three record doesn't exactly fit their talent level.
Speaker 1: New Orleans Saints are a good football team. You know
Speaker 1: how they lost their first three games. They lost one
Speaker 1: twenty seven, twenty two. They lost another one twenty six nineteen.
Speaker 1: They've been close in two of their three losses. You know,
Speaker 1: they're kind of in the same boat as us, you know,
Speaker 1: And they had a close game last night. They won
Speaker 1: in overtime. You know that missed the extra mixed to
Speaker 1: gimme field goal right at the end of regulation and
Speaker 1: then came back and showed some great resolve and made
Speaker 1: a big play on an eight yard touchdown pass to
Speaker 1: win it in overtime. So it's it's a it's about
Speaker 1: being a competitor and coming back out there and you know,
Speaker 1: we're still standing. We've taken some shots, but we're still standing.
Speaker 1: We gotta go out there and compete to keep it
Speaker 1: right Here on Philadelphia Eagles dot Com throughout the week
Speaker 1: for all of the latest Eagles coverage, including press conferences
Speaker 1: from head coach Chip Kelly and coordinators Pat Shermer and
Speaker 1: Bill Davis. Thanks so much, Alex Brian. Quickly about the injuries.
Speaker 1: Next man up is the mantra, is there a big
Speaker 1: drop off in the NFL between starters and second and
Speaker 1: in some cases you're third team players. Well, there's definitely
Speaker 1: a big drop off, because if there was a if
Speaker 1: there wasn't going to be a big drop off, then
Speaker 1: you would have a problem not paying your starter and
Speaker 1: allowing the second team guy just to play. But there
Speaker 1: always is a drop off. And so now the guys
Speaker 1: around the guy that the reserve guy that's going to play,
Speaker 1: they have to pick up their play. Those offensive linement
Speaker 1: that are injured, we need all the other ones to
Speaker 1: pick up their play to just to help out to
Speaker 1: fill that void. Is going to be a tough process.
Speaker 1: All right, Well, so we've got a lot to get
Speaker 1: to today. We'll talk about the loss to Washington. Talk
Speaker 1: about a lead that the Eagles defense could not hold,
Speaker 1: but next up on Eagles three sixty. We're talking about
Speaker 1: an offense that for the first half on Sunday, when scoreless,
Speaker 1: was punchless, then came back strong against Washington. Will the
Speaker 1: real Eagles offense please stand up? We've got more to
Speaker 1: get to on Eagles three sixty. Not ain't but a pain.
Speaker 1: To hot of the pain, to hot of the pain.
Speaker 1: The pain carves to complete electrolytes, to replenish everything you
Speaker 1: need to keep sweating. I got tickets, Metro tickets. You
Speaker 1: need a Metro ticket. Talk to me, please. I don't
Speaker 1: even know these real tickets. If you do, just don't
Speaker 1: touch it. Legit, this leather legit. I mean, how do
Speaker 1: we really know it looks good? Right? No, I'm paying myself.
Speaker 1: I gotta make Does the baby need a Metro ticket?
Speaker 1: I'll give her one on meat. These tickets, they're not
Speaker 1: stealing your soul. You can look at them. Man, nobody
Speaker 1: wants to buy tickets from a guy on the street.
Speaker 1: I don't understand. Hi. My name is Jim Taylor. I've
Speaker 1: been with back Me for thirty four years. Our lengths
Speaker 1: to brand beef is the best around. We cut our
Speaker 1: meat fresh every day and we actually have customers come
Speaker 1: from other stories just for our meat. Freshness is our
Speaker 1: number one priority. No one beats our fresh fish. We
Speaker 1: have the freshious apple, the Christie's lettuce fresh produces what
Speaker 1: we do. We do the best cake decorading in the area,
Speaker 1: hands down, one hundred and twenty three years strong. Come
Speaker 1: on in, you'll see the changes, you'll feel it, you'll
Speaker 1: love it. Welcome back at the Eagles. Three sixty Eagles
Speaker 1: insider Dave Spidero with the Hall of Fame Brian Westbrook,
Speaker 1: who gets honored two weeks from today halftime against the Giants.
Speaker 1: All right, you should be well. We'll talk about that
Speaker 1: more next week after the Eagle beat the Saints. But
Speaker 1: let's talk about this offense, Brian, and the things you
Speaker 1: need to do to fix it. We saw it come
Speaker 1: alive in the second half. The ball goes down the
Speaker 1: field and big plays in the passing game, but overall
Speaker 1: not enough. Yeah. I think Chip Kelly mentioned it earlier
Speaker 1: in the season. They need to be successful in the
Speaker 1: running game just to get this offense going, and as
Speaker 1: of yet, except with the Jets game, they haven't been
Speaker 1: very successful in the run game. And so when you're
Speaker 1: talking about playing a complete game first and second half.
Speaker 1: This run game needs to get going early in the game,
Speaker 1: and because of their woes in the offensive side of
Speaker 1: the ball running the ball, this offense can't get going.
Speaker 1: I mean, I can ask you ten different ways. What
Speaker 1: do you do to fix it? How do you fix it?
Speaker 1: What do you change? We know that Jason Peters is
Speaker 1: banged up, he's got the quad injury. We know that
Speaker 1: Dennis Tobin or that Matt Tobin is playing left tackle,
Speaker 1: Dennis Kelly's playing right guard, perhaps for the Saints game
Speaker 1: and for weeks to come. So the question is what
Speaker 1: does Chip do to tweak the scheme? Do you spread
Speaker 1: the field and just throw the ball? Do you abandon
Speaker 1: the running game? I guess you play to your strengths.
Speaker 1: So let's identify what the strengths are. You're definitely right.
Speaker 1: You have to play to your strength. And at this point,
Speaker 1: the passing game probably is going to be the strength,
Speaker 1: and it has to be the quick passing game. This
Speaker 1: offensive line has been getting pulled back into the backfield,
Speaker 1: a lot of pressure on Sam Bradford. So those five
Speaker 1: and seven step drops, it is probably not gonna be
Speaker 1: a lot of those they're gonna have to throw the
Speaker 1: ball quickly, get the ball out of the quarterbacks, and
Speaker 1: so you're not getting him beat up in the process.
Speaker 1: I hope that they try to run the football, but
Speaker 1: I'm not sure how successful they can be, especially with
Speaker 1: so many reserves on the offensive line playing. Can you go,
Speaker 1: Can we forget about the run pass ratio here and
Speaker 1: literally spread the field and throw you know, every down? Well,
Speaker 1: you know, you want to keep a defense off balance
Speaker 1: just a bit, and so you have to sprinkle some
Speaker 1: runs in there. But they just haven't been successful running
Speaker 1: the football. Now. You can say the downhill style all
Speaker 1: these other things, but if you want to win in
Speaker 1: this league, you have to win in the trenches. So
Speaker 1: you need much better play from the offensive line. You're
Speaker 1: gonna read Brian on Sam Bradford three touchdown passes, four
Speaker 1: plays over thirty yards, thirty plus yards on Sunday, first
Speaker 1: time we really saw that over the top passing game.
Speaker 1: I thought he took some step I do. I think
Speaker 1: he took some steps in the right direction. You're talking
Speaker 1: about a quarterback. In order to throw the ball deep,
Speaker 1: you have to be confident enough and the guys in
Speaker 1: front of you to hold the ball long enough and
Speaker 1: didn't throw the ball down the field. And last week
Speaker 1: against the Rescuings, you say against the rescues, he was
Speaker 1: able to do that. And I think when you see
Speaker 1: that smile in this space, you see a different demeanor
Speaker 1: from a quarterback. He's adding that confidence. That's the confidence
Speaker 1: that you need from a guy that hasn't played for
Speaker 1: two years. That's the confidence that will continue to grow
Speaker 1: in the quarterback and I think this week was a
Speaker 1: start of that. For saying, brand, now, why is this
Speaker 1: offense starting so slowly? I mean you haven't answered, I mean,
Speaker 1: do you have an answered? I don't think no anyone
Speaker 1: has an answer. I think the chip Kelly has to
Speaker 1: trigger try to find that out. I think we have
Speaker 1: to start with the front guys. But it's starting slow
Speaker 1: because you don't have a running game and you're trying
Speaker 1: to figure out what's going to work in the past
Speaker 1: game and sometime that takes a little bit of time.
Speaker 1: But you also have to remember, if you're only running
Speaker 1: fifty one plays per game, you're not going to be
Speaker 1: asking cecil as you want to be because you're not
Speaker 1: on the field long enough. Right, how much can you
Speaker 1: change an offense in the middle of the season. How
Speaker 1: much of a I mean, the playbook is here and
Speaker 1: so so you've got your validity of plays that you
Speaker 1: can run. How much can an offense change from one
Speaker 1: game to the next, I mean, can you completely revolutionize
Speaker 1: the offense? Well, I think it's going to be tough
Speaker 1: to revolutionize the offense to change everything, but you can
Speaker 1: tweak things here and there, and so I think they're
Speaker 1: going to be doing an awful lot of tweaking here
Speaker 1: and there. But I think now you're gonna have to
Speaker 1: see what Sam Bradford's all about. You have to see
Speaker 1: what he's going to be able to do throwing the
Speaker 1: ball down the field. And I think if he could
Speaker 1: be successful, this team could be successful. And that will
Speaker 1: also open up things for the run game. So it
Speaker 1: should be important for them to make sure that the
Speaker 1: passing game gets going as well. Take us into the
Speaker 1: mind of a running back to Marco Murray and Ryan
Speaker 1: Matthews certainly expected to have a dynamic part in this offense.
Speaker 1: What happens in their mind, Well, they're frustrated. And I
Speaker 1: understand that frustration because it was a point of time
Speaker 1: in my career where I wasn't touching the ball as
Speaker 1: much as I felt as though I wanted to. And
Speaker 1: so it's tough because as a running back, when you're
Speaker 1: not touching the ball as much, now you want to
Speaker 1: score on every play. Now, you're not as patient a
Speaker 1: runner as should be, and so that sometimes leads to
Speaker 1: you not being as successful as a runner as you
Speaker 1: want to be. So for those guys, they have to
Speaker 1: stay patient. That's why it's great to have do Sailors there.
Speaker 1: He's been part of the three headed monster before, but
Speaker 1: he was in the league for a long time. He
Speaker 1: won a championship in Pittsburgh, and so these guys need
Speaker 1: to go to deuce and figure out what can they
Speaker 1: do to make themselves better? How can they get this
Speaker 1: running game going. He's one of the guys that would
Speaker 1: know how to do it. What's the chicken or the
Speaker 1: eight question? Here? What's more important? The great running back
Speaker 1: of the great offensive line? Great offensive line. You always
Speaker 1: start in the trenches. You can find a running back
Speaker 1: here and there, but if you have an offensive line
Speaker 1: that can get make holes, almost any running back can
Speaker 1: run through those. One of the great mysteries of this season,
Speaker 1: Titan Zach erst we thought he would be a breakout star.
Speaker 1: Has had an opportunity yesterday, made a great diving catch
Speaker 1: for a touchdown, that play called back nearly another one
Speaker 1: diving opportunity, but he hasn't been featured as much. Can
Speaker 1: you get him? How do you get Tighten more involved
Speaker 1: in here? Well, first of all, you want to make
Speaker 1: sure that he's completely healthy, and let's just say that
Speaker 1: he is. I think that you have to make call
Speaker 1: plays for him. And that's one of the things you
Speaker 1: wonder about the offense. Are you calling players for your
Speaker 1: specific players, Are you calling place for Aguilar, are you
Speaker 1: calling place for Earth Just to get them involved. That's
Speaker 1: going to help them be better players, that's going to
Speaker 1: help them be better blockers as well. The offense searching
Speaker 1: for consistency, explosiveness, the ability to stay on the field.
Speaker 1: Those are the goals this week as the Eagles prepare
Speaker 1: for the New Orleans Saints. On the other side, we're
Speaker 1: going to talk about a defense that was on the
Speaker 1: field for more than forty one minutes on Sunday, allowed
Speaker 1: too many third down conversions, and then the killer, a
Speaker 1: fifteen play ninety yard drive that put Washington in front
Speaker 1: for good when we returned Eagles three sixty. We're talking
Speaker 1: Philly d with extra twenty checking from sant ANDERI you
Speaker 1: can get paid twenty dollars a month. Just direct deposit
Speaker 1: fifteen hundred dollars or more and pay two bills a

Speaker 1: Brian westbrookategos three sixty on Philadelphia Eagles dot com and
Speaker 1: we've got some defense to talk about. Generally, the theme,
Speaker 1: Brian is that the defense played well enough to win.
Speaker 1: Didn't happen on Sunday? How is the defense looking to you?
Speaker 1: You know, I thought they played hard. But for the defense,
Speaker 1: it's not all about playing hard. It's about playing smart
Speaker 1: and getting off the field. Yesterday they weren't able to
Speaker 1: get off the field. And in particular third down. They
Speaker 1: allow Washington to convert fifty three percent of their third downs,
Speaker 1: and so half the time they're converting. That means they're
Speaker 1: staying on the field even longer. That's why Washington was
Speaker 1: able to one seventy nine offensive plays. This defense has
Speaker 1: to do a better job on third down. They got
Speaker 1: him in some situations third and nineteen, third and eight,
Speaker 1: third and seven, they still allow them to get their
Speaker 1: first down. And I actually felt that the first drive
Speaker 1: Washington had third and nineteen, they run the draw play
Speaker 1: very similar to what happened in Atlanta, and when the
Speaker 1: Redskins converted that playoff on oh boy, this defense is
Speaker 1: in for another one of those days. And Washington drove
Speaker 1: down the field, kicked the field goal, got the football
Speaker 1: back another field goal. Eagles fortunate early in the game
Speaker 1: to still be in the game, and then they really
Speaker 1: kind of played well until the last drive. So they're
Speaker 1: good against the run. We know that they're not getting
Speaker 1: off the field against the pass. Can you tighten up
Speaker 1: the scheme somehow? I think you can tighten up the scheme.
Speaker 1: One of the things that I think Billy Davis has
Speaker 1: done is that he's saying, Okay, we have to protect
Speaker 1: our cornerbacks just a little bit, especially with Byron Maxwell out,
Speaker 1: so we don't want to blitz as much. And that's
Speaker 1: how the only way that they're getting pressure. And so
Speaker 1: when he blitz is too much like the last play
Speaker 1: when the reds game score, Now you're one on one
Speaker 1: on the outside and so it's kind of you're darned
Speaker 1: if you do, you're darning if you don't. So at
Speaker 1: this point in time, he has to find these players,
Speaker 1: a group of guys outside cornerback safety that can check
Speaker 1: guys one on one and make sure that those guys
Speaker 1: aren't getting big place when he does bliss because for
Speaker 1: the front seven only one sack and forty six per
Speaker 1: tempts passing tempt that's not going to be good enough.
Speaker 1: They have to find a way to get pressure on
Speaker 1: the quarterback. They have to win the one on one battles.
Speaker 1: That means Connor, Barwin, Brandon Graham, Vinny Carry, those guys
Speaker 1: have to step up just a bit. You had great
Speaker 1: success in your career, Brian, running those shallow crosses and
Speaker 1: the Eagles on Sunday giving up a lot of plays,
Speaker 1: a lot of yards to the Redskins on shallow crosses,
Speaker 1: shut short stuff unders. Why does that play work so well? Well,
Speaker 1: it works because you're running all the defense off, you
Speaker 1: have your front line of guys, they're going after the quarterback,
Speaker 1: and everybody else is dropping deep because all the other
Speaker 1: receivers are going deep, and then you just have one
Speaker 1: guy on the shallow crosser and he kind of gets
Speaker 1: lost in the shuffle, and so that's why those plays
Speaker 1: have been very successful. And the defense is thinking, Okay,
Speaker 1: even if they catch a short we'll be able to
Speaker 1: come up and rally and tackle the guy. Sometimes that work,
Speaker 1: sometime it doesn't. I think they in some situations they
Speaker 1: have to do a better job of tackling Jamison crowd
Speaker 1: or a big third down conversion leading to a field goal.
Speaker 1: Ryan Grant replacing DeShawn Jackson in the line of Pierre
Speaker 1: Garson with the game winning touchdown catch that was Sunday
Speaker 1: this week, it's Drew Brees, smart quarterback. Can't fool them
Speaker 1: with any disguise and coverage. You've got a ball and
Speaker 1: play man up. That's a really tough assignment for Bill
Speaker 1: davis'd well, it's gonna be tough. And when you look
Speaker 1: at this last pass week, you're saying, well, they have
Speaker 1: a run game, and they have a pass game, one
Speaker 1: of the better run games with Alfred Morrison Matt Jones,
Speaker 1: and then you have a pass game that was effective
Speaker 1: enough with Kirk Cousins. And so you're gonna see even
Speaker 1: more of a pass game from the Saints, which you're
Speaker 1: also going to see a running game with Ingram and C. J.
Speaker 1: Spiller out of the backfield too, and so they have
Speaker 1: a tough assignment this week. Yeah, So where did the
Speaker 1: Eagles go from here? We'll find out as we get
Speaker 1: through the rest of this week. Here the Eagles getting
Speaker 1: ready for the New Orleans Saints. We've got more to
Speaker 1: talk about here on Eagles three sixty after a tough
Speaker 1: twenty three to twenty lost to Washington. Yet the Eagle's
Speaker 1: still in it, certainly in the NFC East that is wide,
Speaker 1: wide open, Ryan Westbrook, Dave Spider, We're gonna talk about it.

Speaker 1: with the Hall of Famer Brian Westbrook and Eagles are
Speaker 1: through one quarter of the season onto quarter number two.
Speaker 1: We know it's a long year. We're all a little
Speaker 1: hyper herero disappointed, but you bounce back. You looked to
Speaker 1: win on Sunday. Second quarter of the season. Brian, offense,
Speaker 1: you pick a player offense, I'll pick a player defense.
Speaker 1: You pick a player defense. I'll pick a player. Who
Speaker 1: do you want to step up? Who needs to step
Speaker 1: up on offense for the Eagles. I'm gonna go with
Speaker 1: Nelson Aguilar. He started really slow, but he came one
Speaker 1: in this game against the risk and then sometimes you
Speaker 1: just need a couple of plays here and there to
Speaker 1: build your confidence. And so now they know that Jordan
Speaker 1: Matthews is a big time receiver. Now they need another
Speaker 1: option in that passing game, and I think Nelson Aguilar
Speaker 1: could be the guy. He has to grow. We need
Speaker 1: that rookie to grow fast. We need this rookie to
Speaker 1: step up and play good, and I think he can
Speaker 1: do it. And I'm gonna go with Jason Kelsey, Eagles
Speaker 1: Pro Bowl Center. It is a very difficult assignment for
Speaker 1: Kelsey right now. The pieces around him are moving, the
Speaker 1: defenses are coming after the Eagles. I mean, let's face
Speaker 1: a defensive fronts are licking their chops working against this front.
Speaker 1: They are attacking the Eagles up front. So that's a
Speaker 1: lot for Kelsey to pross. He's a leader on this team.
Speaker 1: He's a great football player. He's being asked to do
Speaker 1: a lot for the offensive line, for the signal calling, calling,
Speaker 1: the protection, setting up everything I look for Cason Kelsey
Speaker 1: to raise his game a bit, and I think that
Speaker 1: would really help this Eagles front. And in fact, I
Speaker 1: think it's essential that he does. If he doesn't, looking
Speaker 1: up front, it's it's really hard to bring it together. Yeah, defensively,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with Corner Barbin. I mean, he's a
Speaker 1: guy that can get it done. He's done it in
Speaker 1: the past. He's a guy that he's an emotional leader
Speaker 1: of that defense, a guy that is a jack of
Speaker 1: all trade in the run game in the past game.
Speaker 1: He needs to get that defense going. He needs to
Speaker 1: make some place himself. And if he does that now,
Speaker 1: the defense we're talking about that can't get off the
Speaker 1: field on third now, now that we're making those stops
Speaker 1: on third now, is going to help eliminate the defens
Speaker 1: in the time of possession. I'm gonna go with his counterpart,
Speaker 1: Brandon Graham. I thought Brandon Graham played really hard, played
Speaker 1: well on Sunday against Washington. The big strip of Jordan
Speaker 1: Reid turned the game around for the Eagles, gave a
Speaker 1: chance to have the football went down the field for
Speaker 1: the go ahead point. Brandon Graham, I look for him
Speaker 1: to step up can get some more schecked down. As
Speaker 1: we talk about that outside linebacker position, one of the
Speaker 1: glaring lacking parts of this defense is depth. There. Marcus
Speaker 1: Smith inactive again, Eagles not getting that three man rotation
Speaker 1: that they had last year. Yeah, I think coach coach
Speaker 1: Kelly wants to see some play. We want to see
Speaker 1: something in practice from Marcus Smith that says you deserve
Speaker 1: some playing time. And so for him, if I'm a
Speaker 1: young guy like he is, he needs to step up
Speaker 1: on the special team side of the ball. He needs
Speaker 1: to step up on the defensive side of the ball.
Speaker 1: If he does that, then he'll get a chance. But
Speaker 1: he's never going to get a look unless he steps up,
Speaker 1: especially in the special team side, just because he's not
Speaker 1: going to be a starter right now, I'm not sure
Speaker 1: that he's doing that in practice. And the opportunity is
Speaker 1: golden for Marcus Smith and for all of these young players.
Speaker 1: Eagles need players to make place all right, quick question
Speaker 1: for you, who is the best team in the NFC
Speaker 1: East right now? I think right now the Giants. They
Speaker 1: have they're basically the only team that has a true
Speaker 1: franchise style type of quarterback. They finally are getting some
Speaker 1: production from Rashad Jennings and their defense is coming up long.
Speaker 1: But anytime that you have a quarterback in a decent
Speaker 1: officeive line, I think you're you're pretty well off. Unfortunately,
Speaker 1: the NFCAS is just not very good. So it's not hard.
Speaker 1: It's not very easy to pick a team. But if
Speaker 1: I had to go with somebody, I would go with
Speaker 1: the Giant. A lot of football left, though, Let's get
Speaker 1: the Eagles back in the conversation. When we return to
Speaker 1: Eagles three sixty, We've got more to talk about Eagles
Speaker 1: and the Redskins and a peek ahead at the Saints

Speaker 1: The only joy on Sunday was watching the Saints in
Speaker 1: overtime beat the Dallas Cowboys. Of this Eagles three sixty
Speaker 1: Dave Spidery, O'Brien Westbrook, and that was at least a
Speaker 1: little bit of consolation on Sunday night. Now the Saints
Speaker 1: come to town an outdoor game. Why the difference in
Speaker 1: just historically the Eagles and the Saints when you play
Speaker 1: them down there so tough. When you get them out
Speaker 1: of the Dome, they're not the same team. Well, Dome
Speaker 1: teams normally just aren't very good when they get outside
Speaker 1: of the Dome. You have to do with the elements.
Speaker 1: You don't have that home field crowd, I mean, because
Speaker 1: it gets loud down there in the Superdome, and so
Speaker 1: that's why they're not as good. You're talking about a
Speaker 1: defense that can get off the ball on the snap
Speaker 1: of the ball a little bit better at home. That's
Speaker 1: why so important to try to get those wins when
Speaker 1: they're outside of that Dome. Offensively for the Eagles in
Speaker 1: that game, what would you like to see the approach
Speaker 1: beat early on just to kind of get this thing
Speaker 1: kicks started. I want to I want to see my
Speaker 1: offensive line set their pads early. I want to set
Speaker 1: the tone with our run game. They shouldn't be expecting
Speaker 1: because we haven't been very good with the run game,
Speaker 1: so I want to set the tone. I want to
Speaker 1: get to Marco Murray going just a bit. You're talking
Speaker 1: about the league's leading rusher last year. I want to
Speaker 1: get him lathered up. I want to get him twenty
Speaker 1: to twenty five carries in this game. This is a
Speaker 1: place to start it, all right, sounds good to me,
Speaker 1: sounds good to us, sounds good to everybody. Tomorrow, we've
Speaker 1: got you set up here on Philadelphia Eagles dot Com.
Speaker 1: It's our amerosos on the menu. Look ahead, we've got
Speaker 1: our first look at the New Orleans Saints. Glenn mcnow
Speaker 1: in studio with me and then Alex Smith and Joe
Speaker 1: Dolan the Fantasy spinning a little later on. I'm writing
Speaker 1: about the Eagles defense. We've talked about it, Brian. Third
Speaker 1: down conversions a big problem, and you'll be surprised maybe
Speaker 1: at some penalty numbers for the Eagles on ded they
Speaker 1: don't look pretty at this point, and that's something Bill
Speaker 1: Davis wants to clean up that. In a whole week
Speaker 1: of coverage leading into Sunday's game against the New Orleans Saints.
Speaker 1: For the Hall of Famer Brian Westbrook, I'm Dave Spidero
Speaker 1: with thank you for joining us and Eagles sixty have
Speaker 1: yourselves a great Eagles Day.
