Speaker 1: a day it was at Lincoln Financial Field on Sunday.
Speaker 1: Hello everyone, welcome to Eagles three sixty Eagles insider Dave
Speaker 1: Spidaro along with the Hall of Fame of Brian Westbrook.
Speaker 1: And we're a couple of happy guys here at an
Speaker 1: overcare complex. Good win for the Eagles against Buffalo. Great game,
Speaker 1: awesome environment, all the drama, so much fun at a
Speaker 1: lot of things going on in this game. Before time
Speaker 1: you have the return of Lashaw McCoy. But the bottom
Speaker 1: line for this team and this game is that they
Speaker 1: found a way to win. That's the most exciting part.
Speaker 1: It's good to be an Eagles fan. Yeah. And we
Speaker 1: saw some things from the offense Brian that we've been
Speaker 1: waiting to see some throws down the field, the Eagles
Speaker 1: really trying to pick up some chunk yards. They did
Speaker 1: it on a touchdown past to Nelson Aghalore, which took
Speaker 1: a couple of other shots shay As Year or two
Speaker 1: too down the middle of the field, Riley Cooper on
Speaker 1: the very first play of the game down the left
Speaker 1: sideline that was just incomplete. But I liked putting the
Speaker 1: ball in Sam Bradford's hands and taking some shots down
Speaker 1: the field. Of course, there's a lot to work on
Speaker 1: for the offense. The defense playing very well in terms
Speaker 1: of keeping Buffalo out of the end zone, and then
Speaker 1: the special teams again coming up with the big play.
Speaker 1: All three phases contributing to a win and Brian Eagles
Speaker 1: still tied for first place. Well, this is the time
Speaker 1: of year that things starting to get a siding, because
Speaker 1: if you want to win and make it to the playoffs,
Speaker 1: you have to win right now. And this football team
Speaker 1: is getting better towards the end of the season. And
Speaker 1: that's what it's all about. It's not necessarily about how
Speaker 1: you do in the beginning of the middle of the season.
Speaker 1: It's all about how you do at the end and
Speaker 1: can your team continue to get better and improve, build
Speaker 1: that confidence towards the end of the year. And that team,
Speaker 1: this football team this year, is doing that. Yeah, the
Speaker 1: word confidence is interesting. In the post game yesterday in
Speaker 1: the locker room, that's the word that most of the
Speaker 1: players spoke about the most. Two weeks ago, three weeks
Speaker 1: ago against Detroit, big loss. Eagles coming out of that
Speaker 1: Ford Field locker room feeling really down about themselves after
Speaker 1: the blowout loss to the Detroit Lions. Now, after wins
Speaker 1: in New England and against Buffalo, the Eagles feel like
Speaker 1: they are back from a mental standpoint, from a physical standpoint.
Speaker 1: Going toe to toe with Buffalo is so huge. And now, Brian,
Speaker 1: we've got three big games coming up, starting with Arizona
Speaker 1: on Sunday night, and that is a legitimate football team.
Speaker 1: So the Eagles better pick up the game to the
Speaker 1: eight plus level. That's right. This team for Arizona, they
Speaker 1: come out and score fast. Going into last week, they
Speaker 1: scored one hundred and eighty nine points in the first
Speaker 1: half of game. Their opponent only scored one hundred and
Speaker 1: eleven points. This team can score the ball fast. They
Speaker 1: move the ball well up and down the field. They
Speaker 1: challenge a secondary so this defensive front is going to
Speaker 1: have to come to play. The secondary is going to
Speaker 1: have to have a very good game. So the ball
Speaker 1: keeps rolling here. We've got a lot to get to
Speaker 1: on the show, we're going to review the win over
Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills. But first, Chip Kelly meeting the media today,
Speaker 1: Let's get your caught up with everything going on at
Speaker 1: the Overcare Complex on this Monday with our Eagles three
Speaker 1: sixty update. Hi everyone, I'm Alex Smith and this is
Speaker 1: your three sixty update. The Eagles are coming off of
Speaker 1: a twenty three to twenty win over the Buffalo Bills
Speaker 1: at Lincoln Financial Field on Sunday. Today at the Novicare Complex,
Speaker 1: we heard from head coach Chip Kelly and among the
Speaker 1: topics he hit on today, we heard him talk about
Speaker 1: the emotion of yesterday's game and while there are obviously
Speaker 1: a lot of storylines both on and off the field
Speaker 1: leading into the game, he was pleased with the way
Speaker 1: his team kept their emotions in check to come out
Speaker 1: with the win. You know, it's important to play with emotion,
Speaker 1: but not let emotion play with you. Don't let them
Speaker 1: take you out of your game. You know, when you
Speaker 1: do Retali it's really kind of a selfish act because
Speaker 1: you're hurting your team. You know, you may feel good
Speaker 1: about that one instant where you kind of got back
Speaker 1: at that guy, you know, for what you felt was
Speaker 1: he did wrong to you, but in the end, it
Speaker 1: hurts a team. So it's you know, it's about it's
Speaker 1: about putting the team goals in ahead. But we did
Speaker 1: talk to our guys leading into this game about you know,
Speaker 1: not getting involved in that stuff. So Kelly also highlighted
Speaker 1: a number of standout performances from his players on Sunday,
Speaker 1: and he made sure to mention Jason Peters, who though
Speaker 1: he has been dealing with some injuries this season, he's
Speaker 1: played well and battled through them and it's helped the
Speaker 1: Eagles in the long run. I think he's played well
Speaker 1: and I think he's battle you know. That's the one
Speaker 1: thing about Jason is probably one of the toughest guys
Speaker 1: we've had, you know. You know, there's a lot of
Speaker 1: times you don't even know what he's gone through, you know,
Speaker 1: but he what he doesn't to prepare himself on a
Speaker 1: weekly basis to play. But I think he's been a
Speaker 1: warrior for us to be honestly, and while Kelly did
Speaker 1: highlight veterans like Peters, he also mentioned some of the
Speaker 1: younger players like Ed Reynolds and Jalen Watkins, two young
Speaker 1: members of the secondary who have come back to this
Speaker 1: Eagles team after originally being cut in training camp to
Speaker 1: contribute in a big way to this Eagles defense. Depth position.
Speaker 1: You know, he's a safety. We were only going to
Speaker 1: keep four. You know, we had a little position versatility.
Speaker 1: You know, your corners can play nickel. Ed's not a nickel,
Speaker 1: He's he's a safety, but a really good special things player.
Speaker 1: But it was a very difficult decision for us. We
Speaker 1: felt like we had some depth in the secondary. You know,
Speaker 1: we traded away Brandon, but we still had to get
Speaker 1: We still cut Jalen at that time, and we still
Speaker 1: and we still cut Ed, but we were fortunate to
Speaker 1: get both of those guys back. Jaylen's playing really well
Speaker 1: for us right now on special teams, and Ed's obviously
Speaker 1: gotten better and better at safety. But we felt going
Speaker 1: in that we had some depth. We knew in camp
Speaker 1: we had some depth in the secondary, So it was
Speaker 1: gonna be a difficult decision. And I said that going
Speaker 1: into it, I thought we're gonna have some difficult decisions
Speaker 1: back there that will wrap things up here from the
Speaker 1: Novacare Complex. We should have stayed tuned to Philadelphia Eagles
Speaker 1: dot Com throughout the week as we bring you live
Speaker 1: press conferences from Sam Bradford, Demiko Ryans, and Malcolm Jenkins
Speaker 1: and for all of the latest Eagles news. Thanks so much, Alex.
Speaker 1: We'll get to the offense, tod fencing, the special teams.
Speaker 1: Brian got to ask you first about Leshaun McCoy and
Speaker 1: all the drama of last week and all the emotion
Speaker 1: and the words spoken and then Leshawn's reaction after the game.
Speaker 1: What did you think of the whole team? Yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: going into the week, I thought, you understand what happens,
Speaker 1: and you have a player that has been really, really
Speaker 1: good here in Philadelphia goes to another team, and there's
Speaker 1: a lot of different things that surround the circumstances of
Speaker 1: him leaving and him getting to Buffalo, and there's a
Speaker 1: lot of emotions still there, especially on McCoy side, and
Speaker 1: so you understand a little bit and you start to
Speaker 1: understand his psychology the way he thinks about it, And
Speaker 1: I think as an ex player, you understand the emotional
Speaker 1: side of it. I also believe that there's a business
Speaker 1: side of things, and so the emotional side you understand
Speaker 1: the business side of the way that he handled it,
Speaker 1: I wish you would have handled it just a little
Speaker 1: bit different and spoken to the media and done this
Speaker 1: thing professionally. The fan reaction was intense, as we expected
Speaker 1: it to be. Passionate as a franchise leading rusher, I
Speaker 1: thought that he would be cheered just a little bit,
Speaker 1: especially at the beginning of the game, because the people
Speaker 1: appreciated the things that he was able to do on
Speaker 1: the field while here, because he was a great player
Speaker 1: while here. But I thought during the game that just
Speaker 1: like any other opposing player, he should be booed. I
Speaker 1: think they started bling a little bit earlier than that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think had he not come out and been so
Speaker 1: attacking of Chip Kelly, he attacked the Philadelphia Eagles Chip Kelly.
Speaker 1: So anyway, so that chapter has done. Another former player
Speaker 1: comes back to Philadelphia, and we've got to Sean Jackson
Speaker 1: coming back in the customer makes it up be more
Speaker 1: fun to talk about it. You've got all have to
Speaker 1: get to here. On Eagles three sixty, the defense in
Speaker 1: a bit. The special teams of course, coming up big.
Speaker 1: First up when we return the Eagles offense and Sam
Speaker 1: Bradford and a four man rotation in the backfield. How
Speaker 1: did it work out against Buffalo and how does it
Speaker 1: look moving forward? We talk about it next. I sept
Speaker 1: to Philly. I sept the Philly. You'll stepped up Philly,
Speaker 1: the bus, the trolley, the Trade one twenty four route
Speaker 1: twenty three, sept to Philly, the seventeen to training, jenkintown

Speaker 1: to compete electro lets to replenish everything you need to
Speaker 1: keep sweating. We welcome you back at the Eagles three
Speaker 1: sixty Dave Spidaro, Brian Westbrook. We're talking Eagles offense against
Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills. Begin at the running back position, Ryan Matthews,
Speaker 1: Marco Murray, Darren Sprowles, mix in a little Kenyon Barner. Brian,
Speaker 1: how do you think it worked on Sunday? And how
Speaker 1: do you think it works moving forward? Understanding that running
Speaker 1: backs like to get the ball to get into a rhythm. Yeah,
Speaker 1: if we're running back, it's very hard to be in
Speaker 1: a situation where you're a running back by committee. The
Speaker 1: truth is, as a running back, you want to touch
Speaker 1: the ball twenty times every single game, and unfortunately for
Speaker 1: these guys, no one is really be stepped out there
Speaker 1: to be the best running back out of this bunch.
Speaker 1: And Chip Kelly wants to get all these guys involved,
Speaker 1: and so now you're looking at probably each guy's going
Speaker 1: to get right around team carries each game, and it's
Speaker 1: just hard to do from a running back standpoint. But
Speaker 1: as far as this football team, it provides them the
Speaker 1: opportunity to say, Okay, we know Ryan Matthews is good
Speaker 1: at exploding to the whole, quickness to the whole, being
Speaker 1: physical at the point of attack. We know DeMarco Murray
Speaker 1: is actually pretty good at the point of attack, being
Speaker 1: physical and get enough field, and darrens Brows is kind
Speaker 1: of a mix of being able to make people miss
Speaker 1: in the backfield, being able to get up to feel quickly,
Speaker 1: and being able to finish runs. And so I think
Speaker 1: if you could bind all of them into one person,
Speaker 1: you have the perfect back. Unfortunately for the Eagles, they
Speaker 1: have three guys that are really good at different things,
Speaker 1: but it's a good thing for this offense. Thirty one
Speaker 1: carries one hundred and thirteen yards for those three backs.
Speaker 1: We'll see if you Staley continues to employ that rotation
Speaker 1: moving forward. Now, the big story for the Eagles, at
Speaker 1: least from a week to week standpoint, seemed to be
Speaker 1: Sam Bradford offensively getting better, throwing the football down the field,
Speaker 1: using the pocket, showing more mobility. He had a big
Speaker 1: touchdown throw to Nelson Aglore. He had the big play
Speaker 1: at the end of the game to Zach Ertz the
Speaker 1: catch and run for forty one yards. Took some shots
Speaker 1: down the field, took some big hits, showed some mobility.
Speaker 1: Brian your thoughts on Sam Bradford and the progress that
Speaker 1: he's made. I think the most important thing that Sam
Speaker 1: Bradford has brought to this team in the time that
Speaker 1: he's come back is the confidence. These guys actually believe
Speaker 1: in Sam Bradford. They believe that he can win football
Speaker 1: games for them. They see his progress. They see that
Speaker 1: at the beginning of the year he struggled on third downs.
Speaker 1: In particular, in this past game, he was fifty percent
Speaker 1: on third downs. That's a success. That's improvement from Sam Bradford,
Speaker 1: their quarterback, the guy that they believe in and have
Speaker 1: built a lot of confidence. And he's also doing a
Speaker 1: great job, like you mentioned, Dave, of stepping up in
Speaker 1: the pocket, moving around, being able to hold the ball
Speaker 1: high in the pocket, look down field and throw strikes.
Speaker 1: He was so much more accurate yesterday than he was
Speaker 1: early in the season. That's an impressive improvement for Sam Brown.
Speaker 1: And there were some drops. Nelson Agilor had a couple
Speaker 1: of drops that would have kept drives going. And then
Speaker 1: early in the game, the Eagles taking that shot on
Speaker 1: the first offensive possession down the left sideline, Riley Cooper
Speaker 1: unable to hang onto a perfect pass. But later the
Speaker 1: Eagles get the drive going and a big play in
Speaker 1: the drive, Sam Bradford to zach Ertz moved the football
Speaker 1: inside the Buffalo twenty yard line, and Greg co Cell
Speaker 1: from NFL Films breaks down the play and the development,
Speaker 1: how it all happened and how zach Ertz became so open.
Speaker 1: The Eagles marched right down the field on their opening
Speaker 1: possession and scored a touchdown. Let's take a look at
Speaker 1: two of the big plays that got them into the
Speaker 1: end zone. The first was a big pass to zach
Speaker 1: Ertz and this came off a really interesting concept, what
Speaker 1: we call a three level stretch concept to the short
Speaker 1: side of the field down here to the boundary side,
Speaker 1: and what you're going to see here is you're going
Speaker 1: to see Nelson Agilar. He's going to run the vertical route,
Speaker 1: the vertical part of the stretch. You're going to have
Speaker 1: zach Ertz run the intermediate route, and then you're going
Speaker 1: to have Darren Sprowls run the short route. So what
Speaker 1: you have is the vertical, the intermediate and the short route.
Speaker 1: It's a three level stretch concept. Let's clear the screen
Speaker 1: and you'll see how it works. This was really really
Speaker 1: well done. You can see Aglar He's lifting the coverage
Speaker 1: frees it here perfect. You see the corner lifted by
Speaker 1: Aglar right here, and you see a big space right
Speaker 1: here for Art's behind the underneath coverage because the underneath
Speaker 1: coverage is also looking at Sprowles. This is executed perfectly.
Speaker 1: Let's clear the screen. We'll see the throw by Sam
Speaker 1: Bradford beautifully done. You can't execute a three level stretch
Speaker 1: any better than that. Now, let's go to Darren Sprowls
Speaker 1: run that got down to the one yard line. And
Speaker 1: what was really interesting about this play what we call
Speaker 1: an unbalanced line. Look who's at left tackle, it's Zach Ertz.
Speaker 1: Look who's over here, basically at a tight end position
Speaker 1: on the right. That's Jason Peters. Now this is going
Speaker 1: to be kind of an outside zone type play to
Speaker 1: the right. But what they do is they pull the
Speaker 1: center Jason Kelsey to lead a really nicely designed play.
Speaker 1: As we clear the screen, let's watch this. You'll see
Speaker 1: this is what Kelsey is at his best at, getting
Speaker 1: out in front. Beautifully done, sort of an outside zone
Speaker 1: Looks Rolls gets down to the one yard line. Eagles
Speaker 1: scored on this drive, opening possession touchdown for the Eagles.
Speaker 1: Thanks so much. Greg. Now, that play and every play
Speaker 1: that we've got stored for you available in our All
Speaker 1: twenty two section on Philadelphia Eagles dot com. Great film
Speaker 1: breakdown there from Greg Kosell and the Gang. I thought
Speaker 1: there was some progress, Brian, Still, I want more from
Speaker 1: the offense. There were six possessions of the Eagles four
Speaker 1: team that resulted in three plays and out, and I
Speaker 1: want more consistency. Yeah, and you know, well, I think
Speaker 1: it starts with the running game. The running game. I
Speaker 1: think they did a decent job of getting everyone involved
Speaker 1: in a running game as far as they're three backs,
Speaker 1: but we need more production. They only had one hundred
Speaker 1: and sixteen yards. We need it close to one hundred
Speaker 1: and fifty yards. And where you'll see the changes that
Speaker 1: instead of third and seven thirty eight, even though they
Speaker 1: converted fifty percent of those, they're gonna be third and medium.
Speaker 1: So now Chip Kelly can use that running game and
Speaker 1: that play action game to help them out on third
Speaker 1: down and continue to allow this team to convert in
Speaker 1: those six possessions where they didn't say on the field
Speaker 1: they were three and out. They'll be on the field
Speaker 1: a lot longer, is it? The running backs or is
Speaker 1: it the offensive line, or is it scheme or is
Speaker 1: it a little bit of everything. Yeah, it's a combination
Speaker 1: of everything. I didn't see anything glaring from the running
Speaker 1: back position that said, hey, these guys are just missing holes.
Speaker 1: They're not doing what they need to do. I think
Speaker 1: part of it is they played against a pretty decent
Speaker 1: defense up front last week against the Bills. Those guys
Speaker 1: are still getting used to their roles as far as
Speaker 1: coming in out of the game, and then you know,
Speaker 1: you're still trying to get your quarterback in balled a
Speaker 1: little bit there too. So it's a combination of everything. Okay,
Speaker 1: that's the offense needs to be better making strides. Just
Speaker 1: kind of like this football team with two wins in
Speaker 1: a row. The Eagles defense knew it had a very
Speaker 1: tough assignment against a Buffalo offense with a mobile quarterback,
Speaker 1: a huge play wide receiver, and outstanding running back in
Speaker 1: a big play tight end. How the Eagles do on
Speaker 1: defense pretty pretty well. We'll talk about it when Eagles
Speaker 1: three sixty returns bud light. The perfect beer for approving
Speaker 1: victory is spelled E A G L E s. What

Speaker 1: We come your way every Monday through Friday at five
Speaker 1: o'clock on Philadelphia Eagles dot Com and our official Eagles app.
Speaker 1: We are talking Eagles defense now in light of the
Speaker 1: twenty three twenty victory over the Buffalo Bills. It wasn't
Speaker 1: dominating by any means. Buffalo had four hundred and twelve
Speaker 1: total net yards, but the Eagles did enough bending not
Speaker 1: breaking to win this football game. And I really like
Speaker 1: the adjustments made against Leshawn McCoy eight carries eleven yards
Speaker 1: in the second half. Yeah, sometimes on defense is all
Speaker 1: about bending and not breaking. As long as those guys
Speaker 1: are not getting in the end zone and scoring touchdowns,
Speaker 1: that's the most important thing for a defense. If you
Speaker 1: allow them to get at three points, that's not going
Speaker 1: to hurt you as bad as a touchdown. But think
Speaker 1: you're right when I'm seeing Fletcher Cox creating a new
Speaker 1: line of scrimmas in the playing in the backfield of
Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills all day long. That's how you stopped
Speaker 1: the run game. Where you're talking about when our run
Speaker 1: game was not successful. It was because we were getting
Speaker 1: penetration all from our offensive line. Now we're seeing our
Speaker 1: defensive line. Fletcher Cox, Benny Kerry, all those guys are
Speaker 1: playing on the other side of the line of scrimmas.
Speaker 1: That's how you stopped and running game. That's how they
Speaker 1: stopped Lashaw, McCoy, Bryan on the other side of the
Speaker 1: deep secondary. It just seems to be better now. There
Speaker 1: just doesn't see the one play, of course to Watkins
Speaker 1: where Ed Reynolds didn't get to the football as the
Speaker 1: safety help over the top, But by and large, Sammy
Speaker 1: Watkins twelve targets, five receptions, Eric Row getting better and
Speaker 1: better as the opposite starting corner with Byron Maxwell, and
Speaker 1: the safety is playing well Malcolm Jenkins and Walter Thurmont.
Speaker 1: I just kind of like the way it's coming together now.
Speaker 1: Of course, the Arizona Cardinals will present a huge challenge
Speaker 1: on Sunday Night, but against an explosive Bills offense, the
Speaker 1: Eagles didn't let Buffalo beat him with the big play.
Speaker 1: You we just talked about the defensive line, but it
Speaker 1: does all start in the trenches, and we talked about
Speaker 1: Benny Carey in the backfield. We talked about Fletcher Cox
Speaker 1: in the backfield. That makes it very hard for a
Speaker 1: quarterback to feel comfortable back there, and that also helps
Speaker 1: the secondary. Those two units are they played together, and
Speaker 1: so when you're talking about the secondary playing well, it's
Speaker 1: because those guys are front of pressing the quarterback. But
Speaker 1: of course you have to have confidence in Eric Rowe.
Speaker 1: He went out there and got beat up by Megatron
Speaker 1: a few weeks back, and he's battled every single game.
Speaker 1: I like the way the young Fellers playing. Malchcol Jenkins
Speaker 1: continues to play on the Pro Bowl level. Reynolds made
Speaker 1: a great play at the end of the game Byron
Speaker 1: Maxwell find a way to slow down Sammy Watkins. He
Speaker 1: followed him around the field a little bit there yesterday.
Speaker 1: I think it's just a great collective group effort yesterday
Speaker 1: from the secondary, helped by the defensive line. If there's
Speaker 1: a real concern with his defensive which seemed to be
Speaker 1: at inside linebacker, Kiko Alonso still looks like he's not
Speaker 1: quite there physically, even though he says he feels great,
Speaker 1: and Damiko Ryan's toward the end of his career, still
Speaker 1: out there battling Michael Kendricks made some big plays, eight
Speaker 1: tackles on Sunday. Now that group really has to play
Speaker 1: firm football down the stretch here and just be really
Speaker 1: sounding their signing. What I saw from that group yesterday,
Speaker 1: they did a much better job of tackling. And I
Speaker 1: think they still miss some tackles here and there, but
Speaker 1: I think as a group they did a much better job.
Speaker 1: Michael Kendricks in particular, did a much better job of
Speaker 1: wrapping up, and I think Billy Davids and Chip Kelly
Speaker 1: made it an emphasis all week long. We understand what
Speaker 1: Chip I mean the Lasha McCoy brings here on Sunday,
Speaker 1: make sure you wrap him up, make sure he's all
Speaker 1: the way down to the ground. And I think the
Speaker 1: defense responded yesterday actually was the best that I've seen
Speaker 1: Damiko Ryans in a long time. As far as moving around,
Speaker 1: he looked much better, he looked more healthy. And for
Speaker 1: far as Kiko and a lot of people getting down
Speaker 1: on him, I think the truth is this that if
Speaker 1: they had another player out there that they trusted enough,
Speaker 1: he probably wouldn't play as much as he does. I
Speaker 1: think when you have those types of knee injuries, you
Speaker 1: need an entire all season to train, get your body
Speaker 1: ready mentally, had to get ready as will. He hasn't
Speaker 1: had enough time just to recover from his injury. Agreed
Speaker 1: with that, and we'll talk now about special teams because
Speaker 1: special teams again a huge narrative in this Eagle's victory.
Speaker 1: Donnie Jones. How about that seven punts for Donnie Jones,
Speaker 1: who maybe having the best season of his career. He
Speaker 1: averaged over fifty yards a kick in gross average forty
Speaker 1: three yards plus in net average. The Eagles won the
Speaker 1: field position battle. Of course, they had to take away
Speaker 1: on the muffed punt that they turned into seven points,
Speaker 1: and Caleb Sturgis three of three on his field goals.
Speaker 1: His kickoffs were good. Darren Sprowls again with the big punts,
Speaker 1: and the Eagles special teams, which early in the season
Speaker 1: Brian didn't perform at that really super high level, are
Speaker 1: back up there and we see that it makes a
Speaker 1: difference in the win lost cause I think the biggest
Speaker 1: play in the game, it was a quiet play and
Speaker 1: a lot a lot of people probably even noticed it
Speaker 1: when Sam Bradford took the sack on the last offensive possession,
Speaker 1: and then Donnie Jones boomed the kick fifty five yards.
Speaker 1: That changed the field position there we're talking about. The
Speaker 1: Bills could have gotten the ball right around the forty
Speaker 1: or fifty and then how only had to go maybe
Speaker 1: twenty or so yards to get into field goal rains.
Speaker 1: But that kicked by Donnie Jones made them go almost
Speaker 1: eighty yards to score a testdown maybe thirty or forty
Speaker 1: yards to get a field goal. And that's the thing
Speaker 1: that actually held that team back a little bit. So
Speaker 1: special teams that winning that Bill position battle. Obviously getting
Speaker 1: on that muffpunt that was huge. And Caleb Sturgis kicks
Speaker 1: off six times, five touchbacks and the only one that
Speaker 1: was a return was at the end of the first
Speaker 1: half his squibber down the field there was return for
Speaker 1: five yards, so Sturgis really stepping up. Good job by
Speaker 1: the special teams. Good job by the Eagles taking a
Speaker 1: win that they must have, right they must have that
Speaker 1: win to get the six and seven. Washington beat Chicago.
Speaker 1: The Giants play tonight in Miami. The NFC's continues to
Speaker 1: be a very tight battle, and the Eagles in really
Speaker 1: good position with two of their final three games at
Speaker 1: Lincoln Financial Field, and this team's got some momentum going.
Speaker 1: We'll talk about that very thing, momentum and what it
Speaker 1: means for the Eagles when we return to Eagle three sixty.

Speaker 1: three sixty on this Monday from the Novicare Complex, our
Speaker 1: ex Affinity Studio and Eagles have won two straight games.
Speaker 1: We all know that we're all feeling a lot better
Speaker 1: about this team. And now we wonder if Brian two
Speaker 1: wins against New England against Buffalo can provide some momentum.
Speaker 1: Last year of the Eagles one and three in December,
Speaker 1: now two and oh, do you believe one game carries
Speaker 1: to the next? I do you know? I think you
Speaker 1: don't want to believe that, because when you lose, you're
Speaker 1: on the other side of the momentum ball. But at
Speaker 1: the same time, when you win, you have to carry
Speaker 1: that confidence and momentum to the next game. All those
Speaker 1: things that you did good in this pass game. You
Speaker 1: stepped up in the pocket as a quarterback, you intercepted
Speaker 1: the ball as a defense, you got after the quarterback
Speaker 1: as a defense. Those things you want to continue. Those
Speaker 1: negative things you have to kind of erase and try
Speaker 1: to fix. But the momentum is a thing that you
Speaker 1: have to building. They're just building blocks, and how do
Speaker 1: you get to that next step. You have to find
Speaker 1: a way to go out there and win. You have
Speaker 1: to use the momentum to swing you to that next step.
Speaker 1: I think the Eagles have a good chance of doing that.
Speaker 1: This NFC East is now a three team race. The
Speaker 1: Cowboys losing to Green Bay. They've got nine losses, so
Speaker 1: barring some kind of miracle or Cowboys, you push them
Speaker 1: to the side just a little bit. Philadelphia, Washington, New
Speaker 1: York all jumbled together, Brian, as you look at the schedules,
Speaker 1: the Redskins finish their season two games on the road,
Speaker 1: Philadelphia and then Dallas. They're home with Buffalo this weekend.
Speaker 1: The Giants have a game tonight, and they've got the
Speaker 1: undefeated Panthers coming to town to New York to met
Speaker 1: Life Stadium on Sunday. Next week. They finished the course
Speaker 1: with the Eagles. How do you look at this division? Well,
Speaker 1: I still think it's a pretty tough division to figure
Speaker 1: out who's gonna win it. I think the Redskins probably
Speaker 1: have an easier schedule between the Giants and the Redskins,
Speaker 1: but you know, at the end of the day. For
Speaker 1: this football team, the focus has to be on just winning.
Speaker 1: How do you figure out a way to just win
Speaker 1: right now? And I think all these teams are saying
Speaker 1: the same thing. We control our own destiny. How can
Speaker 1: we just win this game? And you can't look forward
Speaker 1: to next week, you can't look in the past. How
Speaker 1: do I win this game right now? And for us,
Speaker 1: I think they have a great opportunity to play up
Speaker 1: there in New York. You got the Washington here to
Speaker 1: win this division in front of your own fans, which
Speaker 1: is impressive. Yeah. Well, we'll talk about those games in
Speaker 1: a little bit as we get closer. But on Sunday night,
Speaker 1: the Eagles have huge game, a nationally televised game, a
Speaker 1: flexed game. The Arizona Cardinals, a Super Bowl contending team.
Speaker 1: They've got some extra rest having played on Thursday night,
Speaker 1: and they're coming to town on Sunday night. When we
Speaker 1: return Eagles three to sixty. We'll have some initial thoughts
Speaker 1: about the Cardinals. I've got some thoughts. This is a
Speaker 1: good football team, but a beatable team, and we'll tell
Speaker 1: you why when we come back. Bud Light, the perfect

Speaker 1: sixty Davis Spadero' Brian Westbrook. We've got the Arizona Cardinals
Speaker 1: coming to town eleven and two Bruce Arians coaching that
Speaker 1: team up. Outstanding team. But here's why I think the
Speaker 1: Eagles have a shot. Carson Palmer not particularly mobile, the
Speaker 1: offensive line not particularly great. I think the Eagles can
Speaker 1: win that battle up front and get after Palmer. I
Speaker 1: think the secondary is we've talked about is so much improved.
Speaker 1: Eric Row actually matches up pretty nicely against their big receivers.
Speaker 1: The safeties can cover. I think the big difference between
Speaker 1: this year this Eagles team and last year in the
Speaker 1: secondary the safeties in coverage is huge. So then the
Speaker 1: run game comes into play and Arizona running the football okay,
Speaker 1: but not a dominating run game. And when I watched
Speaker 1: them on Thursday night against the Minnesota Vikings, the Vikings
Speaker 1: had so many chances to win that football game, going
Speaker 1: right down to the last drive and the turnover, and
Speaker 1: the kind of a questionable play call and the decision
Speaker 1: there rather than kick a field goal. I just think
Speaker 1: the Eagles at home the Cardinals are dude for a
Speaker 1: down game. They're dude, are they going to thteen in
Speaker 1: two this season? You know they're a really good team there.
Speaker 1: And what I see from this team is an offense
Speaker 1: that can score with any team in the league. I
Speaker 1: also see a team that has ability on defenses dominate
Speaker 1: the game as well, and so I think I agree
Speaker 1: with you. The key to this game is how do
Speaker 1: you pressure Carson Palmer. Do you blitz him and allow
Speaker 1: his receivers to run shallow crosses and cast the ball
Speaker 1: and run for extra yards, or you kind of do
Speaker 1: what you did against Tom Brady. Your rush three or
Speaker 1: four guys, drop back in zone, make sure everybody catches
Speaker 1: the ball in front of you, and then you come
Speaker 1: up and tackle. I think a lot of this game
Speaker 1: plan and how this game ends up is going to
Speaker 1: fall on Billy Davis's shoulders and how he adjusts to
Speaker 1: the things that Arizona does. I think they can control
Speaker 1: this football game, but there's a lot of things have
Speaker 1: to go their way defensively and offensively. You can't turn
Speaker 1: the ball over. You have to find a way to
Speaker 1: establish a run game, and if you do that, that
Speaker 1: gives this team a chance to be in the game,
Speaker 1: especially against a very good Arizona team that scores an
Speaker 1: awful lot of points. Yeah, and their secondary is outstanding
Speaker 1: with Patrick Peterson leading the way and Tyron Matthew playing
Speaker 1: so well, And yeah, the Cardinals are for real. I
Speaker 1: just feel like Eagles maybe a little black and black
Speaker 1: back and black kind of feel. Possibly if that happens,
Speaker 1: you know how they play now, who knows, you know,
Speaker 1: we'll see a little momentum. I think some energy, a
Speaker 1: link of financial field will pay off for the Eagles.
Speaker 1: All right, What's ahead on Philadelphia Eagles dot Com and
Speaker 1: three Eagles three sixty R m Rosso's on the menu
Speaker 1: segment for you Now. Glenn mcnow joins me in studio
Speaker 1: on Tuesday with his five takeaways from the win over
Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills. Fantasy Football going down to the wire.
Speaker 1: We take a spin around the fantasy football world, and
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you a little bit about the Eagles offense. So,
Speaker 1: I think the Eagles offense has a couple of things
Speaker 1: to clean up here, but I like the way they
Speaker 1: ran down the field on Sunday, and I want more
Speaker 1: of that. I want some easy chunk plays. I just
Speaker 1: don't think the run game will be there this year
Speaker 1: as we hoped it would be, not because of the
Speaker 1: running backs. I just think the line of scrimmage is
Speaker 1: your challenged area. All right, let's make the play. Sam
Speaker 1: has started up there. We gotta go get it. That's right,
Speaker 1: Brian Westbrook, Dave Spidero, we thank you for joining us
Speaker 1: in Eagles three sixty. Have yourselves a great Eagles Day.
