WEBVTT - Eagles 360: December 13 0:00:00.640 --> 0:00:25.640 Hi, everybody, and welcome its Eagles three sixty Dave Spinnaro 0:00:25.720 --> 0:00:28.680 Glenn mac Now at an overcare complex on this Tuesday, 0:00:29.200 --> 0:00:32.560 a day when the coordinator spoke a day, Glenn, where 0:00:32.440 --> 0:00:34.720 are we for the first time? Really? You and I 0:00:34.840 --> 0:00:38.680 here talking big picture with the Eagles a little bit 0:00:38.720 --> 0:00:43.519 at five and eight? Agreed? Yeah, it's just kind of 0:00:43.960 --> 0:00:46.479 it just kind of said Alou I, Yes, because you 0:00:46.640 --> 0:00:50.560 kept we kept having those vague playoff hopes and week 0:00:50.640 --> 0:00:52.720 by week they would kind of ship away, and now like, 0:00:52.760 --> 0:00:54.680 well that's gone. So now we kind of look ahead 0:00:54.680 --> 0:00:56.080 and see what do what do you got for next year? 0:00:56.160 --> 0:00:58.280 What are we what are we looking after the last 0:00:58.280 --> 0:01:00.319 three games? What can they build toward the future. If 0:01:00.320 --> 0:01:02.880 I have to ask you now three biggest needs on 0:01:02.920 --> 0:01:05.920 this football team one through three, your answer very easy. 0:01:06.040 --> 0:01:08.760 Number one is wide receiver, Number two is cornerback, and 0:01:08.880 --> 0:01:11.840 number three is offensive line help. Okay, I wouldn't argue 0:01:11.840 --> 0:01:13.559 with any of that, right I would argue a little 0:01:13.560 --> 0:01:15.920 bit with that, Well, yeah I would. How I want 0:01:15.959 --> 0:01:19.280 to see a defensive line that dominates. I think if 0:01:19.280 --> 0:01:23.880 you added a top level pass rusher into the mix here, 0:01:24.680 --> 0:01:27.240 you would the whole dynamic of the defense would change. 0:01:27.400 --> 0:01:28.760 That's great. How are you going to be fitting that 0:01:28.800 --> 0:01:31.240 one in? Well, that's what Howie Roseman is going to 0:01:31.280 --> 0:01:33.440 be doing. Did they didn't they sign a couple of 0:01:33.440 --> 0:01:35.600 guys this passed off season? Extend a few guys this 0:01:35.680 --> 0:01:38.319 offseason to provide that Yes, well it's difficult to go 0:01:38.360 --> 0:01:41.160 back to that. Well well but no, no, they signed 0:01:41.440 --> 0:01:45.720 Fletcher Cox? Yeah? Uh? Did they signed a pass Vinny Curry? Yes? 0:01:45.800 --> 0:01:48.080 And they need more most mini Curry's got what two 0:01:48.080 --> 0:01:50.360 saxi curs not having a good year. I will grant 0:01:50.400 --> 0:01:54.040 you that, but um, I would be challenging to see 0:01:54.080 --> 0:01:56.720 them go out this offseason and spend what are you 0:01:56.720 --> 0:01:58.680 talking about, a four year, five year deal, months on 0:01:58.760 --> 0:02:02.560 million or somebody at the or draft. Well, listen, I'm 0:02:02.560 --> 0:02:06.120 never opposed to drafting a pass rushing defensive end. But man, 0:02:06.200 --> 0:02:08.919 you got needs at cornerback, you get the other ones 0:02:08.960 --> 0:02:12.440 I mentioned wide receiver. There are needs on this football team. 0:02:12.440 --> 0:02:15.680 And today the coordinator spoke, let's get you caught up 0:02:15.720 --> 0:02:19.880 with everything happening with the Philadelphia Eagles. As Frank Reich 0:02:20.040 --> 0:02:23.520 talks about the offense and Jim Schwartz talks about the 0:02:23.560 --> 0:02:26.640 defense and Alex Smith is here to break it all down. 0:02:26.720 --> 0:02:30.440 It's our three sixty up. Hi everyone, I'm Alex Smith 0:02:30.480 --> 0:02:32.799 here with your three sixty update. The Eagles have the 0:02:32.880 --> 0:02:35.239 day off from practice today, but they will be back 0:02:35.280 --> 0:02:37.960 starting on Wednesday as they get set for a trip 0:02:38.000 --> 0:02:40.680 to Baltimore to visit the Ravens. Today, we did hear 0:02:40.720 --> 0:02:43.040 from the Eagles coordinators and we'll start things off with 0:02:43.160 --> 0:02:46.080 defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz, who talked about the play of 0:02:46.120 --> 0:02:50.160 the Eagles corners in the last game against Washington. Yeah, 0:02:50.200 --> 0:02:51.920 I made a lot of plays. Doesn't make up for 0:02:51.960 --> 0:02:55.640 the ones we gave up, you know. I mean, we 0:02:55.720 --> 0:02:58.560 got a score in the got a score, our lead 0:02:58.639 --> 0:03:01.640 in the fourth quarter. Man, I'd swap any of those 0:03:01.720 --> 0:03:04.679 for knocking that ball down on fourth and one. You know, 0:03:04.800 --> 0:03:07.000 sort of life as an NFL corner, You're gonna give 0:03:07.080 --> 0:03:08.919 up some plays. So we just can't make them an 0:03:08.919 --> 0:03:11.000 eighty yard play. Like I said, if that's sixty, we 0:03:11.040 --> 0:03:13.680 get him on the ground. We got a chance to 0:03:13.680 --> 0:03:17.240 make another play. Meanwhile, within the last twenty four hours, 0:03:17.320 --> 0:03:19.920 the Eagles have made a host of roster moves, sending 0:03:20.000 --> 0:03:23.920 three players to injured reserve. That's John Doranboss Wendel Smallwood, 0:03:23.919 --> 0:03:26.400 and Matt Tobin. And to fill those roster spots, they 0:03:26.400 --> 0:03:30.440 signed veteran cornerback Dwayne Gratz along with long snapper Rick Levado. 0:03:30.680 --> 0:03:33.520 And then just earlier this morning, the team elevated running 0:03:33.520 --> 0:03:36.760 back Byron Marshall from the practice squad to the active roster. 0:03:37.040 --> 0:03:39.520 And today we heard from offensive coordinator Frank Reich on 0:03:39.560 --> 0:03:43.680 what Marshall can bring to the table. You know, Byron, 0:03:43.800 --> 0:03:46.960 I'm not sure what action they'll see, but I can 0:03:47.000 --> 0:03:51.080 just tell you watching scout team this whole year, probably 0:03:51.120 --> 0:03:55.640 if you took the ten most eye popping wild plays 0:03:55.640 --> 0:03:58.240 on the field this year, Byron might have three or 0:03:58.240 --> 0:04:01.920 four of them where he's running scout team and he 0:04:02.000 --> 0:04:05.560 runs a route or he makes a cut against our defense. 0:04:05.600 --> 0:04:08.440 That just goes, WHOA, I mean that was and we'll 0:04:08.480 --> 0:04:10.920 look at each other and say that was legit. I mean, 0:04:10.960 --> 0:04:15.240 so he's got some explosiveness and elusiveness to him. All right, Well, 0:04:15.240 --> 0:04:17.359 that will wrap things up here from the Novocare Complex. 0:04:17.400 --> 0:04:19.839 Don't forget that. Tomorrow we'll hear from head coach Doug 0:04:19.839 --> 0:04:23.400 Peterson along with quarterback Carson Wentz wide receiver Jordan Matthews 0:04:23.400 --> 0:04:25.320 and a host of others. You can catch all that 0:04:25.400 --> 0:04:28.279 content right here on Philadelphia Eagles dot com and the 0:04:28.320 --> 0:04:33.240 official Eagles mobile app. Thank you so much, Alex. You know, Glenn, 0:04:33.240 --> 0:04:35.640 we are looking at a roster here that has really 0:04:35.680 --> 0:04:41.279 taken some beatings. How ironic sad is it? The John 0:04:41.320 --> 0:04:44.760 Dornboss gets to the point where he ties the record 0:04:44.760 --> 0:04:48.039 with Harold Cromichael from most consecutive games played. He is 0:04:48.120 --> 0:04:51.320 honored on the scoreboard at Lincoln Financial Field on Sunday, 0:04:51.839 --> 0:04:54.240 and then a few minutes later he's running into the 0:04:54.240 --> 0:04:57.120 locker room with a messed up A terrible thing for him. Really, 0:04:57.120 --> 0:05:00.279 I mean, what a guy, what a great guy, what 0:05:00.320 --> 0:05:02.120 he has always done, What a great teammate he is, 0:05:02.160 --> 0:05:04.280 What a great guy to have in this area. And 0:05:04.640 --> 0:05:06.440 I'm glad he tied it. It is a shame that 0:05:06.520 --> 0:05:10.040 it happens on that day. Yeah. So the Eagles beat up, bruised, 0:05:10.080 --> 0:05:14.080 but also going into this game against Baltimore expecting to win, 0:05:14.120 --> 0:05:15.839 and that is the objective. We're going to talk about 0:05:16.080 --> 0:05:19.800 the Philadelphia Eagles as we continue through the show, including 0:05:20.120 --> 0:05:22.680 a visit with head coach Doug Peterson. Will also take 0:05:22.680 --> 0:05:25.760 a look around the NFC East.

Right 0:07:34.480 --> 0:07:35.400 here you go. They have a lot of these I 0:07:35.400 --> 0:07:37.600 think are pretty self evident, but feel free to applaud 0:07:37.600 --> 0:07:40.800 as you see. Fit Number one, this team really needs 0:07:40.800 --> 0:07:43.840 to learn how to win those one possession games. They 0:07:43.840 --> 0:07:47.880 are thank you, dare oh and five in that they 0:07:47.880 --> 0:07:49.960 are oh and four in the division in those one 0:07:50.000 --> 0:07:52.960 possession games. And on Sunday, in a lot of ways 0:07:52.960 --> 0:07:56.200 they outplayed Washington. They had fifty more total yards, they 0:07:56.400 --> 0:07:59.720 held the ball they possession thirty six to twenty four, 0:08:00.560 --> 0:08:03.760 which which is pretty significant. They had fewer penalty yards 0:08:03.800 --> 0:08:08.360 for once. This was the first of the one possession 0:08:08.400 --> 0:08:10.760 of losses. I think that I come away saying, you know, 0:08:10.840 --> 0:08:12.720 this team's going to learn from this because they didn't 0:08:12.720 --> 0:08:14.800 commit a lot of penalties, they didn't miss a lot 0:08:14.800 --> 0:08:18.560 of tackles, they didn't blow assignments. They just couldn't finish. 0:08:18.600 --> 0:08:21.520 They couldn't finish. They were the personnel. Ten points and 0:08:21.560 --> 0:08:23.640 four visits to the red zone isn't going to do it, 0:08:23.680 --> 0:08:26.120 And the two turnovers in the red zone really aren't 0:08:26.120 --> 0:08:30.400 going to do it. Fixable, yes, as in next year. 0:08:30.440 --> 0:08:33.440 Fixable Yeah, Fixable as in the Eagles need to continue 0:08:33.480 --> 0:08:36.760 to have good off seasons as they did this past 0:08:36.840 --> 0:08:39.319 off season, adding Carson Wentz and what looks to be 0:08:40.040 --> 0:08:42.679 a good draft class and a couple of key free agents. Oh, 0:08:42.760 --> 0:08:44.920 you take me right to number two, which is Carson 0:08:44.960 --> 0:08:48.240 Wentz is still a bright spot. I heard several foolish 0:08:48.240 --> 0:08:52.319 critics kind of blame him for the end of the game. No, no, no, 0:08:52.360 --> 0:08:54.760 there is nothing he can do in that situation. He 0:08:54.880 --> 0:08:57.840 is playing without three of his starting offensive linemen, without 0:08:57.920 --> 0:08:59.720 three of his running three of the four running backs 0:08:59.720 --> 0:09:01.400 they went into the year with, and without three of 0:09:01.440 --> 0:09:03.800 the guys they counted on to catch the passes he 0:09:03.960 --> 0:09:06.400 marched them down. Was at sixty one yards to put 0:09:06.440 --> 0:09:08.360 them in that position. There is nothing he could do 0:09:08.400 --> 0:09:11.280 on the play where he got sacked. I remained impressed 0:09:11.280 --> 0:09:14.960 by Carson Wentz, by his guts, by his leadership, by 0:09:15.120 --> 0:09:18.120 his brains, by a lot of things. He's got a 0:09:18.120 --> 0:09:21.960 lot to learn. Yes, but Doug Peterson said this was 0:09:22.040 --> 0:09:24.240 his best game of the year. I still go with Pittsburgh, 0:09:24.520 --> 0:09:26.720 but I think it was a very very good game overall. 0:09:26.800 --> 0:09:29.120 I honestly will tell you that after this game, look 0:09:29.120 --> 0:09:31.720 you always, we're all looking at every move that Carson 0:09:31.760 --> 0:09:35.439 Wentz makes, every word that he says, everything about Carson Wentz. 0:09:35.480 --> 0:09:39.360 After this game, Glenn, I felt this kid is the 0:09:39.600 --> 0:09:43.200 real deal. I feel it more strongly now than ever. Yeah, 0:09:43.240 --> 0:09:45.600 moral victories don't mean a lot, and I don't want 0:09:45.600 --> 0:09:47.960 to say that Sunday was one, but I remained encouraged 0:09:48.000 --> 0:09:49.880 by what I've seen. What I've seen from him that 0:09:49.960 --> 0:09:52.440 I didn't really expect to see. His six foot five 0:09:52.480 --> 0:09:54.920 inch two hundred and forty plus pounds. He's a big guy, 0:09:55.360 --> 0:09:58.400 but you see how agile he is in the pocket, 0:09:58.440 --> 0:10:02.040 how he can shrug off some would be tacklers, how 0:10:02.080 --> 0:10:05.360 athletic he is for such a big kid. This is 0:10:05.400 --> 0:10:08.400 all very good news for you, for us, for the 0:10:08.400 --> 0:10:12.080 Philadelphia Eagles number three. I need your help on this one, please. 0:10:12.559 --> 0:10:14.560 I don't know what to make is zach Ertz Dave, 0:10:14.679 --> 0:10:20.160 because I feel like we have been here before. Ten catches, 0:10:20.440 --> 0:10:23.920 one hundred and twelve yards. But he does this every year. 0:10:24.400 --> 0:10:26.840 He had this game last year, fifteen catch game against 0:10:26.880 --> 0:10:29.680 the Redskins in December. He did this in twenty fourteen 0:10:30.040 --> 0:10:34.679 thirteen game against the Redskins in December. Last three games 0:10:34.679 --> 0:10:36.480 of the year that year thirty catches, three hundred and 0:10:36.480 --> 0:10:40.640 fifty two yards. Now, overall the last three seasons, in December, 0:10:40.840 --> 0:10:43.960 Urts averages seven point two catches eighty one yards, and 0:10:44.000 --> 0:10:46.640 he's got four touchdowns in eleven games. The rest of 0:10:46.679 --> 0:10:49.320 the year, he averages three point two catches a game, 0:10:49.440 --> 0:10:53.040 thirty nine yards and only three touchdowns in thirty nine games. 0:10:53.480 --> 0:10:55.760 I feel like every year at this time we say 0:10:55.880 --> 0:10:57.960 this is gonna be it. Next year he's gonna be there. 0:10:58.360 --> 0:11:01.560 I can't anymore predict that. I don't know if it's 0:11:01.559 --> 0:11:04.080 just the December thing of well. I will say this 0:11:04.320 --> 0:11:06.960 after the week that zach Ertz had last week with 0:11:07.000 --> 0:11:11.200 the criticism about the non block in Cincinnati, the player 0:11:11.200 --> 0:11:14.440 that I saw on Sunday was much more physical, fighting 0:11:14.480 --> 0:11:17.760 for yards after the catch, really trying to be more 0:11:18.160 --> 0:11:24.800 of a determined physical runner. But as I get what 0:11:24.840 --> 0:11:27.680 you're saying, and the key for this young man is 0:11:27.679 --> 0:11:29.400 to put it all together and for the Eagles to 0:11:29.440 --> 0:11:32.160 incorporate him. And I think he's actually been more productive 0:11:32.480 --> 0:11:36.640 in the last four or five games after that displaced rib. Look, 0:11:36.679 --> 0:11:38.120 he came out and had a really good first game 0:11:38.160 --> 0:11:41.560 against Cleveland and suffers to displaced rib, plays with it 0:11:41.800 --> 0:11:44.280 and then misses three weeks. Maybe there's a chemistry with 0:11:44.360 --> 0:11:46.319 him and Wentz, but I just I don't want to 0:11:46.320 --> 0:11:48.560 be pulled into it again because I've been pulled into it. 0:11:48.559 --> 0:11:51.120 But they hadn't worked much at all in the presedure. 0:11:51.200 --> 0:11:53.560 All right, here you go, number four. Let's give a 0:11:53.559 --> 0:11:56.439 hand to Trey Burton. Who man, he can do it all. 0:11:56.520 --> 0:11:59.079 This kid, he's he's got up to thirty two catches 0:11:59.200 --> 0:12:02.439 this season. He's got twelve catches in the last two games. 0:12:02.640 --> 0:12:05.320 He's a terrific special teams player. He makes tackles on 0:12:05.400 --> 0:12:09.480 special teams and when called upon an emergency, not that 0:12:09.520 --> 0:12:12.120 bad long snapping. Now the punter helped him Donnie Jones 0:12:12.160 --> 0:12:14.200 did a nice job on that, but you know what, 0:12:14.360 --> 0:12:16.400 he got it back there. He volunteered. He did a 0:12:16.400 --> 0:12:19.240 good job. He's a very valuable cog of this team. 0:12:19.360 --> 0:12:21.440 Trey burtoner a guy you can really root for, and 0:12:21.440 --> 0:12:23.959 he's done well. Yeah, and Trey's one of those unsung 0:12:24.120 --> 0:12:27.120 kind of glue players who is a core member of 0:12:27.440 --> 0:12:31.040 Dave Phipps special teams and has become a really versatile 0:12:31.080 --> 0:12:33.840 player in the offense. Moves all around the formation, creates 0:12:33.840 --> 0:12:36.600 good matchups, and has generally caught the ball very well, 0:12:36.880 --> 0:12:38.560 with the exception of a game or two. Yeah, and 0:12:38.559 --> 0:12:40.800 Wins found him early, which was nice to see. All right, 0:12:40.920 --> 0:12:43.880 Number five. I don't know how it's going to play out, 0:12:44.200 --> 0:12:47.120 but I think the Shan Jackson really wants to come 0:12:47.160 --> 0:12:50.479 back to this town. Before the game, he is lobbying 0:12:50.559 --> 0:12:53.080 with our friend Howard Eskin that he wants to come back. 0:12:53.440 --> 0:12:56.120 After the game, he'll tell anybody who listens how much 0:12:56.120 --> 0:12:59.720 he likes Philadelphia. Hey, they cheered me today, they must 0:12:59.760 --> 0:13:03.160 really like me. Well, we'll see how it plays out. 0:13:03.200 --> 0:13:05.000 He had another good game against the Eagles, which he 0:13:05.040 --> 0:13:07.760 seems to do. Have that eight yard touchdown. He's got 0:13:07.880 --> 0:13:10.280 what four touchdowns now against the Eagles in the five 0:13:10.320 --> 0:13:13.000 games he's played. I don't know how it works out, 0:13:13.040 --> 0:13:15.600 but I'll tell you what. He would be delighted to 0:13:15.600 --> 0:13:18.600 come back here. I believe that he will stay in 0:13:18.720 --> 0:13:22.000 Washington with the Redskins. My thought, you give me the field. Ye, 0:13:22.080 --> 0:13:26.880 I'll give you the field at dinner? That joy? Have 0:13:26.960 --> 0:13:30.480 I offered to pay that a million times? Okay, we'll 0:13:30.520 --> 0:13:32.360 do the beer bed. That sounds Wait, we'll do that 0:13:32.440 --> 0:13:36.640 soda bed. Well, that sounds better with me. Okay. Glenn 0:13:36.760 --> 0:13:41.000 mcnow's five takeaways from the loss against the Washington Redskins. 0:13:41.440 --> 0:13:43.840 Eagles have not won a game in the NFC East 0:13:43.880 --> 0:13:46.840 this year, with two remaining.

Um, I gotta 0:15:59.680 --> 0:16:03.080 tell you I feel different than I normally do. A 0:16:03.080 --> 0:16:06.000 couple of days after Lass, I felt that Sunday really 0:16:06.040 --> 0:16:09.880 showed how close this team is. Agreed, I know there's 0:16:09.880 --> 0:16:12.120 no time for moral victories, I get it, Yeah, but 0:16:12.200 --> 0:16:14.240 you know, the way our season's going, you kind of 0:16:14.240 --> 0:16:19.000 take a moral victory at this time. But ultimately, yeah, 0:16:19.120 --> 0:16:21.000 I felt like the guys really responded. You know, they 0:16:21.000 --> 0:16:25.160 had a great week of practice, prepared extremely well, put 0:16:25.200 --> 0:16:28.800 themselves in a great position, and took it down literally 0:16:28.840 --> 0:16:30.920 to the last play of the game. And uh, we 0:16:31.000 --> 0:16:35.120 definitely had opportunities. Enough mistakes though, little little things you 0:16:35.160 --> 0:16:38.000 know that can that can cost you some ball games 0:16:38.000 --> 0:16:40.480 that we've got to continue to fight through and clean up. 0:16:40.520 --> 0:16:44.520 But definitely the effort definitely the overall performance was was 0:16:44.560 --> 0:16:46.400 there and good enough to win your thoughts on how 0:16:46.440 --> 0:16:49.920 Carson performed on Sunday and how he led the team 0:16:50.040 --> 0:16:52.040 not only throwing the football handing it off, but the 0:16:52.040 --> 0:16:55.720 way he led the team by far his most complete 0:16:55.720 --> 0:16:58.320 performance of the year. Um, did a nice job with 0:16:58.400 --> 0:17:00.880 his feet and his mechanics and the way the way 0:17:00.920 --> 0:17:02.920 he was accurate with the football, you know, and those 0:17:02.920 --> 0:17:04.480 are all part of the things we've been talking about, 0:17:04.560 --> 0:17:06.399 you know, the last few weeks. But I thought he 0:17:06.440 --> 0:17:09.080 really did a great job there and and uh, made 0:17:09.080 --> 0:17:11.400 some stood in the pocket, made some made some tough 0:17:11.480 --> 0:17:14.159 throws and got hit and got blasted a couple of times. 0:17:14.320 --> 0:17:17.800 But yeah, overall, definitely his his best performance. What are 0:17:17.840 --> 0:17:20.359 the mind games like for quarterback? When the pieces are 0:17:20.440 --> 0:17:22.640 changing in front of you and around you so much, 0:17:23.640 --> 0:17:27.119 it's difficult. You know, It's difficult because you just don't know. Um, 0:17:27.200 --> 0:17:29.280 you know, snap count becomes important. You know, do you 0:17:29.320 --> 0:17:32.119 have can you change up the snap count? You know? Um, 0:17:32.240 --> 0:17:34.639 guys don't necessarily get those reps during the during the 0:17:34.640 --> 0:17:37.840 week of practice, you know, of preparation, Um, you know, 0:17:37.920 --> 0:17:40.000 so it can be a little can be a little unsettling. 0:17:40.040 --> 0:17:42.760 You know, moving moving pieces around the way we had 0:17:42.800 --> 0:17:45.400 to uh Sunday, you know, Isaac has to go play 0:17:45.480 --> 0:17:47.880 right card, and then obviously Matt Tobin has to come 0:17:47.920 --> 0:17:50.600 in and play right tackle, you know, towards the end 0:17:50.600 --> 0:17:53.120 of the game. But I thought that both of those 0:17:53.160 --> 0:17:55.439 guys came in and and and did a did a 0:17:55.440 --> 0:17:58.000 good job, you know, did an outstanding job, and and 0:17:58.160 --> 0:18:01.040 um again, it just so shows the rest resiliency of 0:18:01.640 --> 0:18:03.560 our guys, the way they prepared during the week and 0:18:04.080 --> 0:18:06.879 really get themselves in a position to play. So this 0:18:06.960 --> 0:18:09.280 is a question. You you've had Carston for whatever how 0:18:09.280 --> 0:18:12.280 many months here, thirteen regular season games, you scouted him 0:18:12.400 --> 0:18:15.240 all off season. Is there anything about his game, Doug 0:18:15.320 --> 0:18:18.960 that's maybe different, maybe better than you thought when you 0:18:19.040 --> 0:18:21.480 first got him, that you didn't know about him. Maybe, 0:18:22.200 --> 0:18:25.360 you know, I think the I think his leadership ability 0:18:25.400 --> 0:18:27.359 and the ability to kind of rally the troops, his 0:18:27.440 --> 0:18:31.120 toughness mental and physical, you know, because there were times 0:18:31.200 --> 0:18:33.680 in on his college tape that he didn't he didn't 0:18:33.680 --> 0:18:37.040 go through this type of adversity one losing and two 0:18:37.480 --> 0:18:40.800 just physically getting uh, you know, beat up like like 0:18:40.880 --> 0:18:43.320 he's been or hit like he's been these last couple 0:18:43.320 --> 0:18:46.399 of weeks. Now he's fought through the arm and the 0:18:46.440 --> 0:18:48.240 wrist and all that stuff, you know, his senior year. 0:18:48.240 --> 0:18:50.760 But you know, what he's doing and what he's fighting 0:18:50.760 --> 0:18:53.359 through now just goes to show you the type of 0:18:53.440 --> 0:18:55.440 leader that he is. And you know, the guys really 0:18:55.440 --> 0:18:58.800 respond to that. And you know, again we talk about it, 0:18:58.840 --> 0:19:01.000 but you know, we want to win now obviously, but 0:19:01.080 --> 0:19:03.360 the future is definitely the way to go. You made 0:19:03.359 --> 0:19:07.040 the move trading Sam and elevating Carson, and I'm sure 0:19:07.040 --> 0:19:09.840 you watched how Carson would take over the locker room 0:19:09.840 --> 0:19:12.199 and then how the players would respond to him. What 0:19:12.320 --> 0:19:15.359 have you seen in that respect through thirteen games. Well, 0:19:15.440 --> 0:19:19.359 number one, you've seen the everybody is really the entire 0:19:19.359 --> 0:19:21.960 team has rallied, you know, around him. He's a leader 0:19:22.000 --> 0:19:24.960 of the football team. And and um sort of on offense, 0:19:25.080 --> 0:19:27.400 we go how how he goes, and really our offensive 0:19:27.400 --> 0:19:29.920 line goes. But the way he's embraced the team and 0:19:30.200 --> 0:19:33.840 the way he um talks to the players and talks 0:19:33.840 --> 0:19:36.320 to his receivers and tight ends on running routes and 0:19:36.320 --> 0:19:38.199 how to run routes, and the time spent before and 0:19:38.240 --> 0:19:41.120 after practice and how he prepares those are all things 0:19:41.160 --> 0:19:45.000 you kinda think you know, but until you really see 0:19:45.040 --> 0:19:49.040 it as a coach, Um, you know it's a special, 0:19:49.160 --> 0:19:51.199 special part of him and it makes him makes him 0:19:51.200 --> 0:19:54.000 a great quarterback. As Eagles fans understand what you're all 0:19:54.040 --> 0:19:57.720 about offensively, personnel groupings, formations, etc. Can you talk about 0:19:57.760 --> 0:19:59.480 what you're doing with these tight ends and how you're 0:19:59.480 --> 0:20:01.680 moving trade. He was really productive in Zach who's really 0:20:01.720 --> 0:20:04.399 productive in all these different positions. Well, you know, we 0:20:04.480 --> 0:20:06.960 feel like you know, as an offensive staff, that by 0:20:07.000 --> 0:20:08.680 moving our tight ends around a little bit, we create 0:20:08.720 --> 0:20:12.200 some matchups on defense and some opportunities. Bigger bodies sometimes 0:20:12.240 --> 0:20:15.199 on smaller, quicker guys can be an advantage for you, 0:20:15.359 --> 0:20:17.640 especially down in the red zone. And Trey, as athletic 0:20:17.680 --> 0:20:20.080 as he is, is good in space and knows how 0:20:20.080 --> 0:20:22.840 to run routes and he's getting better. Um. And Brent's 0:20:22.880 --> 0:20:25.000 just that that old warrior, the battler. I mean, he's 0:20:25.280 --> 0:20:26.840 he's going to do everything you ask him to do. 0:20:26.920 --> 0:20:30.959 And um and really Carson is really feeling comfortable now 0:20:30.960 --> 0:20:32.760 and understanding where these guys are going to be, So 0:20:32.960 --> 0:20:35.280 it just creates matchups. Um, we got to continue to 0:20:35.320 --> 0:20:37.920 do that and put our guys in positions to be successful. 0:20:38.040 --> 0:20:39.919 Last question on the offense than a couple on defense. 0:20:40.000 --> 0:20:41.919 One of four in the in the red zone on Sunday, 0:20:42.040 --> 0:20:43.720 do you to circle that and go, what the heck man? 0:20:44.280 --> 0:20:46.159 You do? You do? Obviously the you know, we had 0:20:46.200 --> 0:20:48.280 the two turnovers down there, which you can't have. You know, 0:20:48.280 --> 0:20:50.640 we got to convert touchdowns, and it's just something that's 0:20:50.640 --> 0:20:53.240 a focal thing. We had an opportunity. We've had opportunities, 0:20:53.440 --> 0:20:55.240 you know, we we we work on it in practice. 0:20:55.280 --> 0:20:57.960 We actually do competitive drills and have changed up practice 0:20:58.000 --> 0:21:00.040 where we go good versus good in practice at the 0:21:00.080 --> 0:21:02.280 end of a Thursday, which is a red zone I'm 0:21:02.320 --> 0:21:04.639 sorry on Wednesday, which is a red zone sort of 0:21:05.040 --> 0:21:07.120 not really an emphasis, but it gives us a chance 0:21:07.119 --> 0:21:09.320 to go against our defense, so good versus good, one 0:21:09.440 --> 0:21:12.520 versus one and uh and get some reps there. So, 0:21:12.840 --> 0:21:15.080 you know, the more we can expose our players, the 0:21:15.119 --> 0:21:17.399 sense of urgency goes up, the ability to run the 0:21:17.400 --> 0:21:20.840 football down there all become big, big keys and factors 0:21:20.840 --> 0:21:24.920
