WEBVTT - Eagles 360: Eagles Are Still Standing 0:00:33.960 --> 0:00:37.200 Welcome to Eagles three sixty. On this Monday, Eagles insider 0:00:37.240 --> 0:00:40.559 Dave Spidero along with the Hall of Famer Brian Westbrook, 0:00:40.640 --> 0:00:44.040 talking about another tough loss for the Eagles twenty three 0:00:44.120 --> 0:00:47.600 to twenty on the road on Sunday at the House 0:00:47.640 --> 0:00:50.760 of Horrors, FedEx Field. What is going It's always impossible 0:00:50.760 --> 0:00:53.160 to win down there at teams with the kicking problems, 0:00:53.200 --> 0:00:56.920 the late game heroics by the Redskins, and again Brian, 0:00:57.040 --> 0:00:59.640 so many things to talk about. A tough, tough loss. 0:00:59.640 --> 0:01:02.080 Tough loss. This team has to find a way to 0:01:02.120 --> 0:01:04.480 get it together just a bit. They have to execute 0:01:04.560 --> 0:01:06.480 much better than they have been. They have to find 0:01:06.480 --> 0:01:08.440 a way to get off the field on defense and 0:01:08.560 --> 0:01:11.440 all together. They now they need to come together because 0:01:11.440 --> 0:01:14.000 they're in a position one in three. The only way 0:01:14.040 --> 0:01:16.399 that they can win football games moving forward is that 0:01:16.440 --> 0:01:18.720 they all come together collectively and do a little bit more. 0:01:18.959 --> 0:01:21.200 It's we are the buzzword in the locker room and 0:01:21.240 --> 0:01:23.360 with the coach and with everyone with Brian here, it's 0:01:23.400 --> 0:01:26.600 we have to execute better. And it becomes very difficult 0:01:26.600 --> 0:01:28.399 for fans to hear that. We don't know what that means. 0:01:28.440 --> 0:01:31.399 What does execute mean? Well? The problems are so many 0:01:31.440 --> 0:01:33.480 for this team right now, at least on Sunday. The 0:01:33.600 --> 0:01:36.440 offense scoring no points in the first half, the defense 0:01:36.520 --> 0:01:39.039 not getting off the field on third downs, the Eagles 0:01:39.120 --> 0:01:42.360 unable to hold a lead in the fourth quarter offensively, 0:01:42.640 --> 0:01:46.039 three and out defensively, a fifteen play ninety yard drive, 0:01:46.120 --> 0:01:49.680 special teams missing a field goal, and to point after Brian. 0:01:49.720 --> 0:01:52.840 When this kind of thing happens, as a player in 0:01:52.880 --> 0:01:55.360 the locker room, what goes through your mind, Well, that's 0:01:55.360 --> 0:01:58.520 tough because you're practicing all week long just to make 0:01:58.560 --> 0:02:01.120 sure that these types of things do not happen. But 0:02:01.320 --> 0:02:03.559 they happened in the game. And that's when your leaders 0:02:03.600 --> 0:02:05.200 need to step up. That's when the guys in the 0:02:05.240 --> 0:02:07.000 locker room they need to step up and say I 0:02:07.040 --> 0:02:08.760 need a little bit more from you. I need a 0:02:08.800 --> 0:02:10.919 little bit more from you. We have to come together, 0:02:10.960 --> 0:02:13.120 we have to find the way and that's the thing 0:02:13.160 --> 0:02:15.000 that has to happen this week with this football team, 0:02:15.000 --> 0:02:17.519 and if it doesn't, things can spiral out of control 0:02:17.600 --> 0:02:19.000 very quickly. And we heard a little bit of that 0:02:19.120 --> 0:02:21.919 frustration that leadership in the locker room at FedEx Field 0:02:22.200 --> 0:02:26.679 on Sunday. Jason Kelsey Connor Barwin really taking responsibility for 0:02:26.720 --> 0:02:29.720 the loss and expressing quite a bit of their disappointment. 0:02:29.800 --> 0:02:32.160 So one quarter of the season is done. We've got 0:02:32.160 --> 0:02:36.480 three quarters to go. The NFC East remains wide open 0:02:36.919 --> 0:02:39.519 thanks to the New Orleans Saints on Sunday night. Chip 0:02:39.600 --> 0:02:42.400 Kelly meeting the media on this Monday, and he's got 0:02:42.440 --> 0:02:44.120 a lot of questions to answer. Let's get you all 0:02:44.120 --> 0:02:46.480 caught up on everything happening with this football team. Alex 0:02:46.520 --> 0:02:50.160 Smith are three sixty update. Hi everyone, I'm Alex Smith 0:02:50.200 --> 0:02:52.640 with your three sixty update. The Eagles were all from 0:02:52.680 --> 0:02:55.320 practice today as they try to recover from yesterday's disappointing 0:02:55.320 --> 0:02:57.800 loss to the Washington Redskins. Today we heard from head 0:02:57.800 --> 0:03:00.600 coach Chip Kelly, who spoke once again about how execution 0:03:00.680 --> 0:03:02.519 is the key for this team and how a few 0:03:02.560 --> 0:03:04.960 players here or there could have changed the outcome in 0:03:05.000 --> 0:03:08.040 these first four games. The difference in this league right 0:03:08.080 --> 0:03:10.840 now is almost every game when you look up as 0:03:10.880 --> 0:03:14.080 a less than one score game, it's a one score 0:03:14.120 --> 0:03:15.440 game in terms of I think thirty one of the 0:03:15.480 --> 0:03:18.000 sixty two games so far have been decided by less 0:03:18.040 --> 0:03:20.320 by eight points or less. So it's a matter of 0:03:20.400 --> 0:03:22.239 making one more play than your opponent. You know, we 0:03:23.040 --> 0:03:24.880 had a touchdown call back because we lined up wrong, 0:03:25.120 --> 0:03:27.079 you know, and that's a difference in a football game. 0:03:27.200 --> 0:03:28.880 We missed an extra point, mister, field goal. That's a 0:03:28.880 --> 0:03:30.960 difference in a football game. You know, we get a 0:03:30.960 --> 0:03:33.480 completion on third down, we allow a completion on third down. 0:03:33.480 --> 0:03:35.400 That's a difference in the football game. It's it's just 0:03:35.520 --> 0:03:37.480 one play here or there, and it's it's a different 0:03:37.520 --> 0:03:40.480 story when we're sending here today's coach. Kelly also said 0:03:40.520 --> 0:03:42.320 that he doesn't believe that anyone on this team will 0:03:42.320 --> 0:03:44.440 be hanging their head after their one in three start, 0:03:44.480 --> 0:03:46.560 as he believes he has the right players in this 0:03:46.600 --> 0:03:50.120 locker room to rebound from the first four games. You 0:03:50.280 --> 0:03:52.400 just keep practicing and you keep working on it and 0:03:52.720 --> 0:03:54.640 the trust the guys you have, and I we know 0:03:55.160 --> 0:03:58.120 we have the right players here. We just it's a 0:03:58.160 --> 0:04:00.360 play here or play there. You know, we've the game 0:04:00.360 --> 0:04:01.480 by two, and we lost the game by three. We 0:04:01.560 --> 0:04:03.160 lost another game by ten. We've lost three games by 0:04:03.200 --> 0:04:05.680 fifteen points. So you know, you you you hit two 0:04:05.720 --> 0:04:07.800 kicks and we're sitting here three and one and everybody's happy. 0:04:07.920 --> 0:04:10.600 I mean there's there's no difference. Is that you either 0:04:10.680 --> 0:04:12.280 make plays or don't make plays. And if you're not 0:04:12.320 --> 0:04:14.000 making plays, you could you have to continue to work 0:04:14.000 --> 0:04:16.400 at them so you can make the plays. Next up 0:04:16.400 --> 0:04:18.080 for the Eagles is a home matchup with the New 0:04:18.200 --> 0:04:20.599 Orleans Saints, and while the Saints won just their first 0:04:20.600 --> 0:04:23.280 game the season last night, coach Kelly explained that they're 0:04:23.320 --> 0:04:26.120 one in three record doesn't exactly fit their talent level. 0:04:26.960 --> 0:04:28.640 New Orleans Saints are a good football team. You know 0:04:28.680 --> 0:04:30.800 how they lost their first three games. They lost one 0:04:30.880 --> 0:04:33.520 twenty seven, twenty two. They lost another one twenty six nineteen. 0:04:33.880 --> 0:04:36.720 They've been close in two of their three losses. You know, 0:04:36.760 --> 0:04:38.440 they're kind of in the same boat as us, you know, 0:04:38.480 --> 0:04:39.880 And they had a close game last night. They won 0:04:39.920 --> 0:04:42.240 in overtime. You know that missed the extra mixed to 0:04:42.560 --> 0:04:44.280 gimme field goal right at the end of regulation and 0:04:44.360 --> 0:04:47.520 then came back and showed some great resolve and made 0:04:48.000 --> 0:04:50.560 a big play on an eight yard touchdown pass to 0:04:50.640 --> 0:04:53.360 win it in overtime. So it's it's a it's about 0:04:53.400 --> 0:04:55.800 being a competitor and coming back out there and you know, 0:04:55.880 --> 0:04:58.200 we're still standing. We've taken some shots, but we're still standing. 0:04:58.200 --> 0:05:00.479 We gotta go out there and compete to keep it 0:05:00.560 --> 0:05:02.839 right Here on Philadelphia Eagles dot Com throughout the week 0:05:02.880 --> 0:05:05.800 for all of the latest Eagles coverage, including press conferences 0:05:05.800 --> 0:05:08.640 from head coach Chip Kelly and coordinators Pat Shermer and 0:05:08.720 --> 0:05:13.400 Bill Davis. Thanks so much, Alex Brian. Quickly about the injuries. 0:05:13.680 --> 0:05:16.320 Next man up is the mantra, is there a big 0:05:16.400 --> 0:05:18.919 drop off in the NFL between starters and second and 0:05:18.960 --> 0:05:21.320 in some cases you're third team players. Well, there's definitely 0:05:21.320 --> 0:05:23.320 a big drop off, because if there was a if 0:05:23.320 --> 0:05:25.040 there wasn't going to be a big drop off, then 0:05:25.080 --> 0:05:28.400 you would have a problem not paying your starter and 0:05:28.520 --> 0:05:30.680 allowing the second team guy just to play. But there 0:05:30.720 --> 0:05:33.480 always is a drop off. And so now the guys 0:05:33.560 --> 0:05:36.120 around the guy that the reserve guy that's going to play, 0:05:36.400 --> 0:05:38.919 they have to pick up their play. Those offensive linement 0:05:38.920 --> 0:05:40.760 that are injured, we need all the other ones to 0:05:40.800 --> 0:05:42.560 pick up their play to just to help out to 0:05:42.640 --> 0:05:44.799 fill that void. Is going to be a tough process. 0:05:44.880 --> 0:05:46.200 All right, Well, so we've got a lot to get 0:05:46.200 --> 0:05:49.560 to today. We'll talk about the loss to Washington. Talk 0:05:49.600 --> 0:05:52.040 about a lead that the Eagles defense could not hold, 0:05:52.400 --> 0:05:55.560 but next up on Eagles three sixty. We're talking about 0:05:55.600 --> 0:05:58.920 an offense that for the first half on Sunday, when scoreless, 0:05:59.000 --> 0:06:03.880 was punchless, then came back strong against Washington. Will the 0:06:03.920 --> 0:06:07.320 real Eagles offense please stand up? We've got more to 0:06:07.320 --> 0:06:17.120 get to on Eagles three sixty. Not ain't but a pain. 0:06:17.200 --> 0:06:22.080 To hot of the pain, to hot of the pain. 0:06:22.960 --> 0:06:38.120 The pain carves to complete electrolytes, to replenish everything you 0:06:38.200 --> 0:06:47.080 need to keep sweating. I got tickets, Metro tickets. You 0:06:47.120 --> 0:06:49.440 need a Metro ticket. Talk to me, please. I don't 0:06:49.480 --> 0:06:51.960 even know these real tickets. If you do, just don't 0:06:51.960 --> 0:06:55.240 touch it. Legit, this leather legit. I mean, how do 0:06:55.279 --> 0:06:59.080 we really know it looks good? Right? No, I'm paying myself. 0:06:59.120 --> 0:07:01.840 I gotta make Does the baby need a Metro ticket? 0:07:01.880 --> 0:07:03.440 I'll give her one on meat. These tickets, they're not 0:07:03.480 --> 0:07:05.599 stealing your soul. You can look at them. Man, nobody 0:07:05.600 --> 0:07:07.040 wants to buy tickets from a guy on the street. 0:07:07.040 --> 0:07:14.560 I don't understand. Hi. My name is Jim Taylor. I've 0:07:14.600 --> 0:07:17.040 been with back Me for thirty four years. Our lengths 0:07:17.080 --> 0:07:19.200 to brand beef is the best around. We cut our 0:07:19.200 --> 0:07:21.800 meat fresh every day and we actually have customers come 0:07:21.840 --> 0:07:24.360 from other stories just for our meat. Freshness is our 0:07:24.480 --> 0:07:27.240 number one priority. No one beats our fresh fish. We 0:07:27.280 --> 0:07:30.640 have the freshious apple, the Christie's lettuce fresh produces what 0:07:30.760 --> 0:07:34.040 we do. We do the best cake decorading in the area, 0:07:34.160 --> 0:07:37.280 hands down, one hundred and twenty three years strong. Come 0:07:37.360 --> 0:07:39.720 on in, you'll see the changes, you'll feel it, you'll 0:07:39.800 --> 0:07:48.600 love it. Welcome back at the Eagles. Three sixty Eagles 0:07:48.640 --> 0:07:51.640 insider Dave Spidero with the Hall of Fame Brian Westbrook, 0:07:51.640 --> 0:07:55.200 who gets honored two weeks from today halftime against the Giants. 0:07:55.760 --> 0:07:58.600 All right, you should be well. We'll talk about that 0:07:58.640 --> 0:08:00.760 more next week after the Eagle beat the Saints. But 0:08:00.960 --> 0:08:03.720 let's talk about this offense, Brian, and the things you 0:08:03.720 --> 0:08:05.480 need to do to fix it. We saw it come 0:08:05.520 --> 0:08:07.400 alive in the second half. The ball goes down the 0:08:07.400 --> 0:08:10.600 field and big plays in the passing game, but overall 0:08:10.840 --> 0:08:13.480 not enough. Yeah. I think Chip Kelly mentioned it earlier 0:08:13.520 --> 0:08:16.000 in the season. They need to be successful in the 0:08:16.080 --> 0:08:18.600 running game just to get this offense going, and as 0:08:18.640 --> 0:08:20.800 of yet, except with the Jets game, they haven't been 0:08:20.920 --> 0:08:22.880 very successful in the run game. And so when you're 0:08:22.920 --> 0:08:25.520 talking about playing a complete game first and second half. 0:08:25.560 --> 0:08:27.760 This run game needs to get going early in the game, 0:08:27.960 --> 0:08:30.280 and because of their woes in the offensive side of 0:08:30.320 --> 0:08:32.720 the ball running the ball, this offense can't get going. 0:08:32.920 --> 0:08:35.400 I mean, I can ask you ten different ways. What 0:08:35.480 --> 0:08:36.960 do you do to fix it? How do you fix it? 0:08:36.960 --> 0:08:39.360 What do you change? We know that Jason Peters is 0:08:39.400 --> 0:08:41.679 banged up, he's got the quad injury. We know that 0:08:41.760 --> 0:08:44.280 Dennis Tobin or that Matt Tobin is playing left tackle, 0:08:44.360 --> 0:08:47.400 Dennis Kelly's playing right guard, perhaps for the Saints game 0:08:47.440 --> 0:08:49.840 and for weeks to come. So the question is what 0:08:49.880 --> 0:08:52.920 does Chip do to tweak the scheme? Do you spread 0:08:52.960 --> 0:08:54.520 the field and just throw the ball? Do you abandon 0:08:54.559 --> 0:08:56.720 the running game? I guess you play to your strengths. 0:08:56.880 --> 0:08:59.240 So let's identify what the strengths are. You're definitely right. 0:08:59.280 --> 0:09:01.240 You have to play to your strength. And at this point, 0:09:01.280 --> 0:09:03.360 the passing game probably is going to be the strength, 0:09:03.400 --> 0:09:05.400 and it has to be the quick passing game. This 0:09:05.480 --> 0:09:08.480 offensive line has been getting pulled back into the backfield, 0:09:08.600 --> 0:09:11.240 a lot of pressure on Sam Bradford. So those five 0:09:11.240 --> 0:09:13.079 and seven step drops, it is probably not gonna be 0:09:13.120 --> 0:09:14.760 a lot of those they're gonna have to throw the 0:09:14.760 --> 0:09:16.679 ball quickly, get the ball out of the quarterbacks, and 0:09:16.920 --> 0:09:18.800 so you're not getting him beat up in the process. 0:09:19.280 --> 0:09:21.440 I hope that they try to run the football, but 0:09:21.480 --> 0:09:23.960 I'm not sure how successful they can be, especially with 0:09:24.000 --> 0:09:26.520 so many reserves on the offensive line playing. Can you go, 0:09:26.640 --> 0:09:28.959 Can we forget about the run pass ratio here and 0:09:29.600 --> 0:09:32.600 literally spread the field and throw you know, every down? Well, 0:09:33.280 --> 0:09:35.680 you know, you want to keep a defense off balance 0:09:35.720 --> 0:09:37.480 just a bit, and so you have to sprinkle some 0:09:37.640 --> 0:09:40.040 runs in there. But they just haven't been successful running 0:09:40.080 --> 0:09:42.559 the football. Now. You can say the downhill style all 0:09:42.600 --> 0:09:44.480 these other things, but if you want to win in 0:09:44.559 --> 0:09:46.360 this league, you have to win in the trenches. So 0:09:46.440 --> 0:09:48.400 you need much better play from the offensive line. You're 0:09:48.400 --> 0:09:53.120 gonna read Brian on Sam Bradford three touchdown passes, four 0:09:53.200 --> 0:09:56.280 plays over thirty yards, thirty plus yards on Sunday, first 0:09:56.320 --> 0:09:58.400 time we really saw that over the top passing game. 0:09:58.760 --> 0:10:01.600 I thought he took some step I do. I think 0:10:01.640 --> 0:10:03.680 he took some steps in the right direction. You're talking 0:10:03.679 --> 0:10:06.000 about a quarterback. In order to throw the ball deep, 0:10:06.160 --> 0:10:08.120 you have to be confident enough and the guys in 0:10:08.160 --> 0:10:10.120 front of you to hold the ball long enough and 0:10:10.160 --> 0:10:12.320 didn't throw the ball down the field. And last week 0:10:12.320 --> 0:10:14.319 against the Rescuings, you say against the rescues, he was 0:10:14.360 --> 0:10:16.120 able to do that. And I think when you see 0:10:16.160 --> 0:10:18.320 that smile in this space, you see a different demeanor 0:10:18.360 --> 0:10:21.600 from a quarterback. He's adding that confidence. That's the confidence 0:10:21.640 --> 0:10:23.520 that you need from a guy that hasn't played for 0:10:23.559 --> 0:10:26.000 two years. That's the confidence that will continue to grow 0:10:26.000 --> 0:10:27.800 in the quarterback and I think this week was a 0:10:27.880 --> 0:10:30.480 start of that. For saying, brand, now, why is this 0:10:30.600 --> 0:10:33.600 offense starting so slowly? I mean you haven't answered, I mean, 0:10:33.600 --> 0:10:36.000 do you have an answered? I don't think no anyone 0:10:36.040 --> 0:10:37.600 has an answer. I think the chip Kelly has to 0:10:37.600 --> 0:10:39.520 trigger try to find that out. I think we have 0:10:39.559 --> 0:10:41.800 to start with the front guys. But it's starting slow 0:10:41.800 --> 0:10:43.719 because you don't have a running game and you're trying 0:10:43.760 --> 0:10:45.240 to figure out what's going to work in the past 0:10:45.320 --> 0:10:47.520 game and sometime that takes a little bit of time. 0:10:47.679 --> 0:10:49.679 But you also have to remember, if you're only running 0:10:49.720 --> 0:10:51.959 fifty one plays per game, you're not going to be 0:10:52.040 --> 0:10:53.800 asking cecil as you want to be because you're not 0:10:53.800 --> 0:10:57.079 on the field long enough. Right, how much can you 0:10:57.400 --> 0:11:00.880 change an offense in the middle of the season. How 0:11:00.960 --> 0:11:03.679 much of a I mean, the playbook is here and 0:11:03.720 --> 0:11:05.840 so so you've got your validity of plays that you 0:11:05.840 --> 0:11:09.079 can run. How much can an offense change from one 0:11:09.120 --> 0:11:11.960 game to the next, I mean, can you completely revolutionize 0:11:12.000 --> 0:11:13.760 the offense? Well, I think it's going to be tough 0:11:13.840 --> 0:11:17.040 to revolutionize the offense to change everything, but you can 0:11:17.080 --> 0:11:19.240 tweak things here and there, and so I think they're 0:11:19.280 --> 0:11:20.920 going to be doing an awful lot of tweaking here 0:11:20.920 --> 0:11:22.800 and there. But I think now you're gonna have to 0:11:22.840 --> 0:11:25.480 see what Sam Bradford's all about. You have to see 0:11:25.520 --> 0:11:27.160 what he's going to be able to do throwing the 0:11:27.200 --> 0:11:29.040 ball down the field. And I think if he could 0:11:29.040 --> 0:11:31.319 be successful, this team could be successful. And that will 0:11:31.360 --> 0:11:33.240 also open up things for the run game. So it 0:11:33.280 --> 0:11:35.200 should be important for them to make sure that the 0:11:35.240 --> 0:11:37.200 passing game gets going as well. Take us into the 0:11:37.240 --> 0:11:39.400 mind of a running back to Marco Murray and Ryan 0:11:39.440 --> 0:11:43.240 Matthews certainly expected to have a dynamic part in this offense. 0:11:43.320 --> 0:11:46.200 What happens in their mind, Well, they're frustrated. And I 0:11:46.280 --> 0:11:48.840 understand that frustration because it was a point of time 0:11:48.840 --> 0:11:50.880 in my career where I wasn't touching the ball as 0:11:50.960 --> 0:11:52.840 much as I felt as though I wanted to. And 0:11:52.880 --> 0:11:55.200 so it's tough because as a running back, when you're 0:11:55.240 --> 0:11:57.200 not touching the ball as much, now you want to 0:11:57.200 --> 0:11:59.160 score on every play. Now, you're not as patient a 0:11:59.240 --> 0:12:02.080 runner as should be, and so that sometimes leads to 0:12:02.160 --> 0:12:04.400 you not being as successful as a runner as you 0:12:04.440 --> 0:12:06.319 want to be. So for those guys, they have to 0:12:06.400 --> 0:12:09.280 stay patient. That's why it's great to have do Sailors there. 0:12:09.440 --> 0:12:11.719 He's been part of the three headed monster before, but 0:12:11.800 --> 0:12:13.160 he was in the league for a long time. He 0:12:13.200 --> 0:12:16.199 won a championship in Pittsburgh, and so these guys need 0:12:16.240 --> 0:12:18.959 to go to deuce and figure out what can they 0:12:19.000 --> 0:12:21.440 do to make themselves better? How can they get this 0:12:21.559 --> 0:12:23.480 running game going. He's one of the guys that would 0:12:23.480 --> 0:12:25.040 know how to do it. What's the chicken or the 0:12:25.080 --> 0:12:27.400 eight question? Here? What's more important? The great running back 0:12:27.400 --> 0:12:29.800 of the great offensive line? Great offensive line. You always 0:12:29.800 --> 0:12:31.680 start in the trenches. You can find a running back 0:12:31.679 --> 0:12:33.679 here and there, but if you have an offensive line 0:12:33.800 --> 0:12:36.280 that can get make holes, almost any running back can 0:12:36.360 --> 0:12:38.400 run through those. One of the great mysteries of this season, 0:12:38.440 --> 0:12:41.040 Titan Zach erst we thought he would be a breakout star. 0:12:41.200 --> 0:12:43.640 Has had an opportunity yesterday, made a great diving catch 0:12:43.640 --> 0:12:47.079 for a touchdown, that play called back nearly another one 0:12:47.200 --> 0:12:50.480 diving opportunity, but he hasn't been featured as much. Can 0:12:50.520 --> 0:12:52.320 you get him? How do you get Tighten more involved 0:12:52.320 --> 0:12:53.679 in here? Well, first of all, you want to make 0:12:53.679 --> 0:12:55.760 sure that he's completely healthy, and let's just say that 0:12:55.800 --> 0:12:58.200 he is. I think that you have to make call 0:12:58.280 --> 0:13:00.040 plays for him. And that's one of the things you 0:13:00.120 --> 0:13:02.600 wonder about the offense. Are you calling players for your 0:13:02.600 --> 0:13:05.280 specific players, Are you calling place for Aguilar, are you 0:13:05.640 --> 0:13:08.000 calling place for Earth Just to get them involved. That's 0:13:08.000 --> 0:13:09.920 going to help them be better players, that's going to 0:13:10.000 --> 0:13:12.680 help them be better blockers as well. The offense searching 0:13:12.800 --> 0:13:17.600 for consistency, explosiveness, the ability to stay on the field. 0:13:17.600 --> 0:13:19.480 Those are the goals this week as the Eagles prepare 0:13:19.800 --> 0:13:22.800 for the New Orleans Saints. On the other side, we're 0:13:22.800 --> 0:13:24.920 going to talk about a defense that was on the 0:13:24.960 --> 0:13:28.240 field for more than forty one minutes on Sunday, allowed 0:13:28.280 --> 0:13:31.240 too many third down conversions, and then the killer, a 0:13:31.320 --> 0:13:34.880 fifteen play ninety yard drive that put Washington in front 0:13:34.920 --> 0:13:38.240 for good when we returned Eagles three sixty. We're talking 0:13:38.320 --> 0:13:45.120 Philly d with extra twenty checking from sant ANDERI you 0:13:45.160 --> 0:13:47.880 can get paid twenty dollars a month.

Then you can 0:13:53.120 --> 0:13:55.679 get paid twenty dollars a month. That's just the way 0:13:55.679 --> 0:13:59.200 it works. So what are you waiting for?

Dave Spiderrow 0:15:28.080 --> 0:15:31.080 Brian westbrookategos three sixty on Philadelphia Eagles dot com and 0:15:31.400 --> 0:15:33.720 we've got some defense to talk about. Generally, the theme, 0:15:33.760 --> 0:15:36.280 Brian is that the defense played well enough to win. 0:15:36.800 --> 0:15:39.640 Didn't happen on Sunday? How is the defense looking to you? 0:15:40.000 --> 0:15:42.560 You know, I thought they played hard. But for the defense, 0:15:42.600 --> 0:15:44.840 it's not all about playing hard. It's about playing smart 0:15:44.840 --> 0:15:47.520 and getting off the field. Yesterday they weren't able to 0:15:47.560 --> 0:15:50.360 get off the field. And in particular third down. They 0:15:50.440 --> 0:15:54.520 allow Washington to convert fifty three percent of their third downs, 0:15:54.520 --> 0:15:57.080 and so half the time they're converting. That means they're 0:15:57.080 --> 0:15:59.560 staying on the field even longer. That's why Washington was 0:15:59.600 --> 0:16:02.640 able to one seventy nine offensive plays. This defense has 0:16:02.680 --> 0:16:04.440 to do a better job on third down. They got 0:16:04.480 --> 0:16:07.000 him in some situations third and nineteen, third and eight, 0:16:07.040 --> 0:16:09.080 third and seven, they still allow them to get their 0:16:09.080 --> 0:16:11.280 first down. And I actually felt that the first drive 0:16:11.360 --> 0:16:13.840 Washington had third and nineteen, they run the draw play 0:16:14.000 --> 0:16:16.880 very similar to what happened in Atlanta, and when the 0:16:16.920 --> 0:16:20.640 Redskins converted that playoff on oh boy, this defense is 0:16:20.640 --> 0:16:23.320 in for another one of those days. And Washington drove 0:16:23.320 --> 0:16:25.360 down the field, kicked the field goal, got the football 0:16:25.360 --> 0:16:28.480 back another field goal. Eagles fortunate early in the game 0:16:28.520 --> 0:16:30.920 to still be in the game, and then they really 0:16:31.000 --> 0:16:34.000 kind of played well until the last drive. So they're 0:16:34.000 --> 0:16:35.800 good against the run. We know that they're not getting 0:16:35.840 --> 0:16:37.960 off the field against the pass. Can you tighten up 0:16:37.960 --> 0:16:40.160 the scheme somehow? I think you can tighten up the scheme. 0:16:40.800 --> 0:16:42.720 One of the things that I think Billy Davis has 0:16:42.760 --> 0:16:45.160 done is that he's saying, Okay, we have to protect 0:16:45.200 --> 0:16:48.080 our cornerbacks just a little bit, especially with Byron Maxwell out, 0:16:48.120 --> 0:16:50.120 so we don't want to blitz as much. And that's 0:16:50.120 --> 0:16:52.080 how the only way that they're getting pressure. And so 0:16:52.400 --> 0:16:54.400 when he blitz is too much like the last play 0:16:54.520 --> 0:16:56.520 when the reds game score, Now you're one on one 0:16:56.600 --> 0:16:59.600 on the outside and so it's kind of you're darned 0:16:59.600 --> 0:17:01.240 if you do, you're darning if you don't. So at 0:17:01.240 --> 0:17:03.600 this point in time, he has to find these players, 0:17:03.600 --> 0:17:06.840 a group of guys outside cornerback safety that can check 0:17:06.880 --> 0:17:09.080 guys one on one and make sure that those guys 0:17:09.119 --> 0:17:11.879 aren't getting big place when he does bliss because for 0:17:12.000 --> 0:17:15.199 the front seven only one sack and forty six per 0:17:15.240 --> 0:17:17.640 tempts passing tempt that's not going to be good enough. 0:17:17.760 --> 0:17:19.240 They have to find a way to get pressure on 0:17:19.240 --> 0:17:21.399 the quarterback. They have to win the one on one battles. 0:17:21.440 --> 0:17:24.359 That means Connor, Barwin, Brandon Graham, Vinny Carry, those guys 0:17:24.359 --> 0:17:25.960 have to step up just a bit. You had great 0:17:25.960 --> 0:17:29.359 success in your career, Brian, running those shallow crosses and 0:17:29.680 --> 0:17:31.840 the Eagles on Sunday giving up a lot of plays, 0:17:31.840 --> 0:17:34.560 a lot of yards to the Redskins on shallow crosses, 0:17:34.920 --> 0:17:37.920 shut short stuff unders. Why does that play work so well? Well, 0:17:37.960 --> 0:17:40.399 it works because you're running all the defense off, you 0:17:40.440 --> 0:17:43.280 have your front line of guys, they're going after the quarterback, 0:17:43.280 --> 0:17:45.600 and everybody else is dropping deep because all the other 0:17:45.680 --> 0:17:47.840 receivers are going deep, and then you just have one 0:17:47.920 --> 0:17:50.000 guy on the shallow crosser and he kind of gets 0:17:50.040 --> 0:17:52.360 lost in the shuffle, and so that's why those plays 0:17:52.800 --> 0:17:55.240 have been very successful. And the defense is thinking, Okay, 0:17:55.280 --> 0:17:57.480 even if they catch a short we'll be able to 0:17:57.520 --> 0:18:00.200 come up and rally and tackle the guy. Sometimes that work, 0:18:00.280 --> 0:18:02.719 sometime it doesn't. I think they in some situations they 0:18:02.720 --> 0:18:05.240 have to do a better job of tackling Jamison crowd 0:18:05.320 --> 0:18:07.760 or a big third down conversion leading to a field goal. 0:18:08.640 --> 0:18:12.120 Ryan Grant replacing DeShawn Jackson in the line of Pierre 0:18:12.200 --> 0:18:17.080 Garson with the game winning touchdown catch that was Sunday 0:18:17.080 --> 0:18:22.240 this week, it's Drew Brees, smart quarterback. Can't fool them 0:18:22.240 --> 0:18:24.960 with any disguise and coverage. You've got a ball and 0:18:25.040 --> 0:18:27.560 play man up. That's a really tough assignment for Bill 0:18:27.640 --> 0:18:29.880 davis'd well, it's gonna be tough. And when you look 0:18:29.880 --> 0:18:32.040 at this last pass week, you're saying, well, they have 0:18:32.119 --> 0:18:33.919 a run game, and they have a pass game, one 0:18:33.960 --> 0:18:36.679 of the better run games with Alfred Morrison Matt Jones, 0:18:36.800 --> 0:18:38.960 and then you have a pass game that was effective 0:18:39.040 --> 0:18:41.120 enough with Kirk Cousins. And so you're gonna see even 0:18:41.160 --> 0:18:43.440 more of a pass game from the Saints, which you're 0:18:43.440 --> 0:18:45.639 also going to see a running game with Ingram and C. J. 0:18:45.760 --> 0:18:47.960 Spiller out of the backfield too, and so they have 0:18:48.040 --> 0:18:50.280 a tough assignment this week. Yeah, So where did the 0:18:50.320 --> 0:18:53.160 Eagles go from here? We'll find out as we get 0:18:53.200 --> 0:18:56.080 through the rest of this week. Here the Eagles getting 0:18:56.080 --> 0:18:58.159 ready for the New Orleans Saints. We've got more to 0:18:58.200 --> 0:19:01.320 talk about here on Eagles three sixty after a tough 0:19:01.680 --> 0:19:05.400 twenty three to twenty lost to Washington. Yet the Eagle's 0:19:05.400 --> 0:19:08.639
