WEBVTT - Eagles 360: Eagles’ Depth To Be Tested 0:00:33.560 --> 0:00:36.280 Hello everybody, and welcome to the Eagles three sixty Eagles 0:00:36.320 --> 0:00:39.519 insider Dave Spidero along with Glenn mcnowell on this b 0:00:39.720 --> 0:00:42.560 e A beautiful Thursday, really beautiful day, isn't it? The weather? 0:00:42.760 --> 0:00:45.440 The weather's great. Yeah, that's one positive. So let's get 0:00:45.440 --> 0:00:48.160 the forecast for the Eagles and hope that it turns 0:00:48.680 --> 0:00:51.839 clear and sunny on Sunday at MetLife Stadium. We've got 0:00:51.880 --> 0:00:54.560 a great show for you today. Glenn mcnow is gonna 0:00:54.560 --> 0:00:57.520 give us some predictions, beautiful ball all week on these 0:00:57.520 --> 0:01:00.080 Ballpols predictions and there's some good ones. The voice the 0:01:00.080 --> 0:01:02.680 Philadelphia Eagles, Merrill Reese, joins us in studio as well. 0:01:02.800 --> 0:01:04.800 So so thoughts Glenn, as we get a little bit 0:01:04.800 --> 0:01:07.720 closer to Sunday. You remember our old friend Hugh Douglas 0:01:07.800 --> 0:01:11.520 used to say do or die. This is do or die. Well, 0:01:11.520 --> 0:01:13.440 this really is do or die. You can go oh 0:01:13.520 --> 0:01:15.679 and two and still make the playoffs. And there are 0:01:16.680 --> 0:01:19.279 projections that the Eagles have a better than fifty fifty 0:01:19.319 --> 0:01:22.039 chance even now. The division is a mess. But Dave, 0:01:22.480 --> 0:01:26.760 if you go oh in three untrue, untrue, untrue, that 0:01:26.800 --> 0:01:29.240 you don't make it all right? And if it comes 0:01:29.240 --> 0:01:31.240 down to a Glenn in my pocket. I have two 0:01:31.280 --> 0:01:33.720 thousand and three again, because not only were the Eagles 0:01:33.800 --> 0:01:36.000 O in two in two thousand and three, they one 0:01:36.360 --> 0:01:39.160 in Buffalo and then they lost the next week in Dallas, 0:01:39.160 --> 0:01:42.039 so they were one in three. So really I'm looking 0:01:42.040 --> 0:01:44.360 at this as a two game series here. Eagles need 0:01:44.360 --> 0:01:46.360 to win one of these next two games, either in 0:01:46.400 --> 0:01:49.400 New York against the Jets or in Washington against that 0:01:49.520 --> 0:01:51.360 NFC's rival. Day. They need to win both in the 0:01:51.360 --> 0:01:53.960 next two games. And here's part of the problem. Once 0:01:54.000 --> 0:01:56.320 you hit O and three is when people start doubting 0:01:56.360 --> 0:01:59.760 and everybody starts doubting, and it becomes a real problem. 0:02:00.240 --> 0:02:04.560 Winning this weekend is essential. You got to win this weekend. 0:02:04.720 --> 0:02:07.240 And you know what, they really have the opportunity to win. Yeah, 0:02:07.240 --> 0:02:10.000 it's gonna be a good matchup the Eagles against the Jets. 0:02:10.080 --> 0:02:12.600 Busy day here on this Thursday at the Novicare Complex. 0:02:12.960 --> 0:02:15.840 Let's send you out now to the practice pitch. Alex 0:02:15.880 --> 0:02:19.359 Smith our Eagles three sixty update. Hi everyone, I'm Alex 0:02:19.400 --> 0:02:22.560 Smith here with your three sixty update, presented by Sports Authority. 0:02:22.680 --> 0:02:24.640 While the Eagles wrapped up another day of training here 0:02:24.639 --> 0:02:26.720 at the Novicare Complex as they get set to take 0:02:26.720 --> 0:02:29.200 on the New York Jets on Sunday. Today, we heard 0:02:29.200 --> 0:02:31.480 from Eagles head coach Chip Kelly on how the Eagles 0:02:31.560 --> 0:02:34.880 running attack will be altered without having DeMarco Murray if 0:02:34.919 --> 0:02:36.960 he is unable to go on Sunday due to a 0:02:37.000 --> 0:02:39.440 hamstring injury. Yeah. I mean, you always have to have 0:02:39.480 --> 0:02:41.160 depth at running back and that was always a plan 0:02:41.280 --> 0:02:45.440 for us. So you know, we got a tremendous confidence 0:02:45.440 --> 0:02:48.520 in Ryan, also in Darance Rolls if DeMarco can't go, 0:02:48.600 --> 0:02:51.680 but I'm not We're not putting any things on anything now. 0:02:51.720 --> 0:02:54.320 So it's just we'll say he does tomorrow and Saturday. 0:02:54.320 --> 0:02:55.760 He won't go today, and we'll say he does tomorrow 0:02:55.760 --> 0:02:57.799 on Saturday to make a determination where they'll play on Sunday. 0:02:58.320 --> 0:03:00.680 Inside the Eagles locker room, we heard for rookie wide 0:03:00.680 --> 0:03:03.200 receiver Nelson Agloor on having to win the battle in 0:03:03.200 --> 0:03:05.239 the line of scrimmage if he looks to have any 0:03:05.240 --> 0:03:08.720 success against the Jets secondary on Sunday. When you when 0:03:08.760 --> 0:03:10.200 you win at the line of scrimmers, you put it, 0:03:10.360 --> 0:03:13.399 you know, secondary guys in a bond, because now they're 0:03:13.400 --> 0:03:17.080 in a trail ticket. Ye, those guys. Those guys have 0:03:17.160 --> 0:03:19.280 confidence in the in their skill sets, so they're gonna 0:03:19.360 --> 0:03:21.440 do some things no matter what. If they get beat, 0:03:21.440 --> 0:03:23.119 they're gonna play. And if you get get the line, 0:03:23.160 --> 0:03:25.800 you've got to compete. Stuff. With all the injuries the 0:03:25.800 --> 0:03:27.560 Eagles are facing this week, they may need to do 0:03:27.600 --> 0:03:30.399 some shuffling in the linebacker's corps and that may mean 0:03:30.400 --> 0:03:32.959 that Marcus Smith will see some extended time, and if 0:03:32.960 --> 0:03:35.080 that is the case, he says he'll be ready to go. 0:03:35.920 --> 0:03:38.360 That My urgency is, I definitely want to be out 0:03:38.400 --> 0:03:41.320 there on the field. Um, but I don't I don't think. 0:03:41.440 --> 0:03:44.480 You can't really think about those things, all worry about 0:03:44.480 --> 0:03:46.240 those things. That's why you just gotta take it one 0:03:46.280 --> 0:03:48.120 day at a time. And once I get to the 0:03:48.160 --> 0:03:49.760 game where I'm in the game, I'm gonna take it 0:03:49.800 --> 0:03:53.080 one player at a time. So I'm just ready to 0:03:53.120 --> 0:03:56.800 go out there and perform really well because I feel 0:03:56.880 --> 0:04:01.600 really comfortable and um what I'm doing. Because of this 0:04:01.640 --> 0:04:04.280 weekend's Papal visit in Philadelphia, the Eagles are heading out 0:04:04.320 --> 0:04:06.320 and hitting the road early this week for New York, 0:04:06.520 --> 0:04:09.040 and according to linebacker Brandon Graham, that might be a 0:04:09.080 --> 0:04:12.240 good thing as they get a chance to clear their heads. Yeah, yeah, 0:04:12.240 --> 0:04:14.200 he's kind of taking a pressure. It's kind of cool 0:04:14.240 --> 0:04:17.560 to get away, you know, hour away from here, just 0:04:17.680 --> 0:04:19.800 to kind of clear our minds and just get focus 0:04:19.800 --> 0:04:22.680 on guy. As for today's injury update, the Eagles were 0:04:22.720 --> 0:04:25.200 without running back to Marco Murray, as well as linebackers 0:04:25.279 --> 0:04:28.800 Kiko Alonzo and Michael Kendricks. Defensive lineman Taylor Heart and 0:04:28.839 --> 0:04:32.880 Cedric Thornton were also non participants in today's practice.

Freshness is 0:06:12.760 --> 0:06:15.640 our number one priority. No one beats our fresh fish. 0:06:15.760 --> 0:06:19.160 We have the precious apple, the Christie's Lettuce fresh produces 0:06:19.200 --> 0:06:21.920 what we do.

Taste the new Tailgator breakfast sandwich stacked 0:06:41.800 --> 0:06:45.160 with smoked sausage by our roasted peppers and onions. America 0:06:45.279 --> 0:06:52.000 Runs un Duncan. We're back. It's Eagles three sixty, Dave 0:06:52.040 --> 0:06:54.720 and Glenn here. Now let's go to Chris McPherson with 0:06:55.120 --> 0:06:58.760 Eric Allen, New York Jets dot Com. Behind enemy lines. 0:06:59.600 --> 0:07:02.440 It's to go behind enemy lines here on Philadelphiagles dot Com. 0:07:02.520 --> 0:07:04.280 Or we're gonna go to North Jersey, where it's been 0:07:04.320 --> 0:07:07.120 a tale of two franchises. Early in the season, the 0:07:07.200 --> 0:07:09.760 New York Giants are owing two after blowing ten point 0:07:09.920 --> 0:07:13.000 leads in consecutive games. Meanwhile, the New York Jets are 0:07:13.040 --> 0:07:15.080 one of the best teams in the AFC with the 0:07:15.160 --> 0:07:17.200 two win o start to the twenty fifteen season and 0:07:17.240 --> 0:07:19.440 then bring him down. We've bringing senior reporter from New 0:07:19.520 --> 0:07:23.000 York Jets dot Com, Eric Allen. Eric. The Jets defense 0:07:23.120 --> 0:07:25.560 was very good in the past under Rex Ryan, but 0:07:25.680 --> 0:07:28.080 they've taken into a whole new level with Todd Bowles 0:07:28.120 --> 0:07:30.680 in charge. What is Todd dunn to make this Jets 0:07:30.760 --> 0:07:34.679 defense one of the elite units in the entire NFL? Smack, 0:07:34.760 --> 0:07:37.040 Thanks for having me on as always. The first thing 0:07:37.120 --> 0:07:39.760 I'd like to point out is what general manager Mike 0:07:39.880 --> 0:07:43.440 mccagnan did in the offseason. Todd Bowles was very clear 0:07:43.480 --> 0:07:46.640 about it, we have to fix our cornerback issues and 0:07:47.200 --> 0:07:51.320 mccagnen went to work on that, resigning de Rol Revas, 0:07:51.480 --> 0:07:54.640 bringing him back to a spot where he always wanted 0:07:54.680 --> 0:07:58.680 to play. Antonio Carmardi, his former partner in crime. He 0:07:58.960 --> 0:08:03.560 joined Reeva, and then an unheralded signing was getting Buster 0:08:03.720 --> 0:08:08.600 Screen in here who played outside in Cleveland, but he 0:08:08.760 --> 0:08:11.880 also has a versatility play inside for the Jets. He's 0:08:11.920 --> 0:08:15.120 playing that all important nickel position. Also, let's stay in 0:08:15.200 --> 0:08:18.960 the secondary. The Jets also brought in Marcus Gilchrist, who 0:08:19.120 --> 0:08:22.600 started his career with the San Diego Chargers, and the 0:08:22.760 --> 0:08:26.800 guys love him in the back end CMAC because he's 0:08:26.840 --> 0:08:30.520 a player, brings versatility, he can cover down the field, 0:08:30.680 --> 0:08:34.040 and he's a great communicator. And with that being said, 0:08:34.160 --> 0:08:39.199 Todd Bowles has brought in a fascinating system along with 0:08:39.840 --> 0:08:44.439 defensive coordinator Case Rodgers, because at times they'll bring the 0:08:44.520 --> 0:08:47.839 blitz like last year they did in Arizona Bowls. Blitz 0:08:48.000 --> 0:08:51.600 more than any defensive play caller in the National Football League. 0:08:51.840 --> 0:08:56.800 But the Jets just this year have the more of 0:08:56.840 --> 0:08:59.000 an ability to cover in the back end. And what 0:08:59.160 --> 0:09:01.680 they're doing better than anybody in the National Football League 0:09:01.800 --> 0:09:06.600 right now. Smack. They're turning people over ten takeaways over 0:09:06.760 --> 0:09:11.400 two games. Last year, in sixteen games, the Jets had 0:09:11.600 --> 0:09:15.920 thirteen takeaways. Eric, How has the defensive line been able 0:09:15.960 --> 0:09:18.640 to perform so well earlier the year even without Sheldon 0:09:18.800 --> 0:09:22.840 Richard Richardson who's been suspended for the first four games. Yeah, well, 0:09:23.120 --> 0:09:26.120 they got some talent up front even without Sheldon being 0:09:26.160 --> 0:09:29.240 in the lineup, Smack. It all starts up front with 0:09:29.360 --> 0:09:34.000 the nose tackle Damon snacks Harrison, who I think is 0:09:34.040 --> 0:09:37.559 better one of the better run players in the National 0:09:37.640 --> 0:09:40.719 Football League. And then you got Mo Wilkerson, who's off 0:09:40.800 --> 0:09:43.719 to a great start, Todd Boll said the other day 0:09:44.120 --> 0:09:47.600 Monday night in Indianapolis, when the Jets took home at 0:09:47.640 --> 0:09:52.240 twenty to seven victory, Wilkerson was unblockable. He was dominant. 0:09:52.600 --> 0:09:56.959 And then the Jets were fortunate in the April's draft 0:09:57.040 --> 0:10:00.800 smack when perhaps the most talented player the draft board 0:10:00.920 --> 0:10:05.120 felded him in number six overall. And Leonard Williams played 0:10:05.280 --> 0:10:08.520 really well in his second game. I think his emotions 0:10:08.559 --> 0:10:11.480 got the best of them in the first game in 0:10:11.640 --> 0:10:15.839 his first regular season appearance against the Cleveland Browns, But 0:10:15.920 --> 0:10:19.400 that second game against the Colts, he played really well 0:10:20.000 --> 0:10:23.199 as well. And the Jets are getting contributions from guys 0:10:23.280 --> 0:10:27.120 like Leja Douzable, a valuable reserve. So there's still a 0:10:27.240 --> 0:10:29.319 lot of talent there. And a great thing if you're 0:10:29.360 --> 0:10:32.559 a Jets fan is Sheldon Richardson is going to return 0:10:32.640 --> 0:10:35.319 at some point this season. Eric. Let's look at the 0:10:35.400 --> 0:10:38.360 offense for a second. What would it mean if Eric 0:10:38.480 --> 0:10:42.160 Decker is not able to play a receiver this Sunday. Yeah, Well, 0:10:42.280 --> 0:10:45.520 Decker's having a really good start to the season. C 0:10:45.760 --> 0:10:49.200 mac chan gaily has been using him in the slot, 0:10:49.280 --> 0:10:51.800 and the Jets like what he can do on the 0:10:52.000 --> 0:10:56.880 inside because sometimes he's matched up with linebackers and that's 0:10:56.920 --> 0:11:00.640 a big time mismatch. Brandon Mark show off to a 0:11:00.720 --> 0:11:03.680 good start as well for the Jets. But if Decker 0:11:03.840 --> 0:11:08.640 can't go, the Jets do have a couple of issues 0:11:09.280 --> 0:11:13.600 at the wide receiver position because Chris a Woozoo also 0:11:13.720 --> 0:11:16.319 has a leg injury and Top Bull said yesterday he 0:11:16.400 --> 0:11:19.439 could be out a couple of weeks. So what that 0:11:19.600 --> 0:11:22.760 will mean is that they're gonna have to They're gonna 0:11:22.800 --> 0:11:25.640 have to count on guys like Quincy and Nona, a 0:11:25.760 --> 0:11:28.880 guy who's come in and basically been the Jets third 0:11:29.000 --> 0:11:32.400 receiver at times. He plays like a little h back 0:11:32.600 --> 0:11:35.480 role for this team. They like to use him. He's 0:11:35.520 --> 0:11:38.079 like a tweeterer. He can be a wide receiver, a 0:11:38.200 --> 0:11:41.920 tight end, and h back. They like him because he's 0:11:41.960 --> 0:11:45.199 a big body who can block on the perimeter. But 0:11:45.800 --> 0:11:48.400 they also have Jeremy Curley who hasn't played a lot 0:11:48.559 --> 0:11:53.440 this year Chris and he could see some more playing 0:11:53.520 --> 0:11:57.120 time this week. And then Devin Smith, a second round 0:11:57.200 --> 0:11:59.720 pick out of Ohio State, was one of the most 0:12:00.920 --> 0:12:06.320 accomplished vertical threats in college football last season. He could 0:12:06.400 --> 0:12:09.840 make a return as soon as Sunday. He got hurt 0:12:09.880 --> 0:12:14.440 early in camp, broken ribs, punctured long, but he's backpracticing 0:12:14.600 --> 0:12:18.880 full and he could see his debut coming up here 0:12:18.880 --> 0:12:21.439 against the Eagles. All right, Eric, last question for you. 0:12:21.600 --> 0:12:24.559 Let's make it real quick here. Give Eagles fans a name, 0:12:24.640 --> 0:12:27.480 an X factor, someone to watch this Sunday that they 0:12:27.559 --> 0:12:32.600 might not already know about. I'll go on both sides 0:12:32.600 --> 0:12:34.760 of the ball. How about I take two X factors. 0:12:34.800 --> 0:12:39.440 The left guard James Carpenter for the Jets has been 0:12:40.000 --> 0:12:43.559 a pleasant surprise. He played in Seattle, appeared in the 0:12:43.600 --> 0:12:47.560 past couple of Super Bowls with the Seahawks Seamac He's 0:12:47.600 --> 0:12:49.800 a big guy, but he can really get out and 0:12:49.960 --> 0:12:53.200 move and pull, and the Jets can run the football 0:12:53.400 --> 0:12:56.079 on the other side of the ball. I'm going back 0:12:56.120 --> 0:12:59.920 to number forty one buster screen he made his first appear. 0:13:00.160 --> 0:13:03.160 It's a national TV the other night and Monday night football. 0:13:03.600 --> 0:13:06.720 But he's a big time player and he's a difference 0:13:06.800 --> 0:13:10.360 maker in the National Football League when everybody's gone and 0:13:10.640 --> 0:13:13.840 thrown to their players out of the slot. This guy 0:13:14.040 --> 0:13:18.720 is a dynamic performer and he'd really taken this secondary 0:13:18.920 --> 0:13:22.000 to the next level. That's Eric Allen from New York 0:13:22.080 --> 0:13:24.400 Jets dot com. Thanks for thanks for taking us behind 0:13:24.440 --> 0:13:29.200 aemy lions here on Philadelphia Eagles dot Com.

Time. Now for the moment you've been 0:15:39.520 --> 0:15:43.560 waiting for all week. It's Glenn mcnown's three bold predictions. 0:15:44.240 --> 0:15:46.160 He's been wrong for the first two weeks. All right, 0:15:46.320 --> 0:15:48.120 all right, we've all been wrong, but we've all been 0:15:48.160 --> 0:15:49.880 wrong for the first two weeks. And now we're gonna 0:15:49.960 --> 0:15:51.960 change the mojo. Here, what do you got for? You're 0:15:51.960 --> 0:15:53.400 gonna love the first one, okay, And I think the 0:15:53.440 --> 0:15:56.040 first one could really help this team. This is gonna 0:15:56.040 --> 0:15:58.400 be the week that the Eagles get Darren Sprawls involved 0:15:58.560 --> 0:16:02.400 early and all often. You remember last year, sprowles first 0:16:02.440 --> 0:16:05.160 game with the Eagles against Jacksonville got fifteen touches and 0:16:05.240 --> 0:16:07.160 he was great. I think given the way the rest 0:16:07.200 --> 0:16:09.360 of the offense is going, you get it to Sprowls early, 0:16:09.400 --> 0:16:12.800 you isolate him on the linebackers. He's somebody they really 0:16:12.920 --> 0:16:14.880 can't cover. And I'll just give you this stats through 0:16:14.920 --> 0:16:18.160 the first two games, Darren Sprowls averaging eight point five 0:16:18.280 --> 0:16:20.920 yards of touch, the other backs two point eight. It's 0:16:20.920 --> 0:16:24.000 easy And what's so unusual? Twelve touches in week one 0:16:24.120 --> 0:16:28.400 against the Falcons only five against the Dallas complies. Now, 0:16:28.440 --> 0:16:30.840 I know the number of players were down, but you 0:16:30.960 --> 0:16:33.160 really want to get Darren sproles involved as much as 0:16:33.160 --> 0:16:35.520 you can. We talked about it last year. His touches 0:16:35.560 --> 0:16:38.960 went down, Teams double teaming him so electric in the 0:16:39.000 --> 0:16:41.120 pun return game and naturally, I really I'm going to 0:16:41.160 --> 0:16:43.920 see Darren pick things up here in the return games. 0:16:44.000 --> 0:16:49.840 Special teams coming. Wait, wait, we've got that one. Well, 0:16:50.040 --> 0:16:52.600 please take control. We're going to go out of order. 0:16:52.640 --> 0:16:54.160 Then I'll go to the next one. This is the 0:16:54.240 --> 0:16:57.640 game where special teams makes a big play. It was 0:16:57.800 --> 0:17:00.120 such a huge part of their success last year. I've 0:17:00.160 --> 0:17:02.920 been touchdowns on special teams this year. It's fairly been 0:17:02.960 --> 0:17:05.680 a disaster through the first two games, mostly the block punt. 0:17:05.960 --> 0:17:09.000 The Eagles will make a big play on special teams, 0:17:09.080 --> 0:17:12.200 perhaps Darren Spoils and the punt returned. The Jets kicker 0:17:12.280 --> 0:17:14.440 Foles does not get it into the end zone all 0:17:14.480 --> 0:17:16.640 the time. This is their chance to make a big 0:17:16.720 --> 0:17:19.399 special team play. Change my men. Basically, what you're saying is, 0:17:19.480 --> 0:17:22.879 Darren Spoils number forty three, here's your football game. Go 0:17:23.040 --> 0:17:25.440 out and win it. And why not. Eagles need a spark, 0:17:25.600 --> 0:17:28.120 some spark, any spark. Go out and win a game, 0:17:28.160 --> 0:17:30.280 and it could be one of those days we've talked 0:17:30.320 --> 0:17:32.840 about the odd history of the Eagles and the Jets. 0:17:33.080 --> 0:17:35.480 Could be one of those games where the special teams 0:17:36.080 --> 0:17:38.439 make the difference like they did so often in twenty fourteen. 0:17:38.560 --> 0:17:42.200 There you go, all right, bold frediction number three. Here 0:17:42.280 --> 0:17:44.320 you go. This one. You're not gonna like so much. 0:17:44.960 --> 0:17:46.760 And maybe it's not that bold, but the Eagles are 0:17:46.800 --> 0:17:49.840 going to turn the ball over three times, I think, 0:17:49.920 --> 0:17:51.480 which is going to make it tough to climb out 0:17:51.480 --> 0:17:55.120 and win. The Jets defense has nine turnovers Jets overall 0:17:55.280 --> 0:17:58.440 ten turnovers in the first two games. Sam Bradford has 0:17:58.520 --> 0:18:00.880 not been doing a good job. He's turning the ball over. 0:18:01.280 --> 0:18:04.160 I can't really foresee that changes. I see three turnovers 0:18:04.200 --> 0:18:06.159 and Dave, that means the Eagles defense to have to 0:18:06.240 --> 0:18:08.119 get that ball back. Yeah, the Jets have done just 0:18:08.200 --> 0:18:10.320 a great job taking the football away and the Eagles 0:18:10.720 --> 0:18:14.120 haven't been as secure with the football as they want. 0:18:14.200 --> 0:18:17.200 It's always an emphasis. We talked about it all of 0:18:17.320 --> 0:18:20.119 twenty fourteen, and I agree with Glenn. It could come 0:18:20.160 --> 0:18:24.240 down to the turnover differential. The Eagles simply cannot give 0:18:24.280 --> 0:18:26.120 the football away to the New York Jets and set 0:18:26.240 --> 0:18:30.240 up an offense. It's only so so with favorable field position. 0:18:30.480 --> 0:18:33.359 By the way, Dave, two more bold predictions coming up. 0:18:33.440 --> 0:18:36.040 I'm the kickoff show. I've been working all week on this. 0:18:36.440 --> 0:18:39.360 I think this week I'm gonna be five for five. Okay, good, Well, 0:18:39.400 --> 0:18:41.560 as long as they lead to an Eagles victory, We're 0:18:41.600 --> 0:18:44.399 all happy here with the Philadelphia Eagles. Those are the 0:18:44.480 --> 0:18:48.200 bold predictions. When we return to Eagles three sixty, We've 0:18:48.240 --> 0:18:50.960 got a lot more for you. Mike Quick and I 0:18:50.960 --> 0:18:53.399 a Crease breaking down Malcolm Jenkins, who's off to a 0:18:53.520 --> 0:18:56.719 very fine start. But next, the voice of the Philadelphia Eagles, 0:18:56.840 --> 0:19:00.320 Meryll Reese, how concerned is he with the Eagles into 0:19:05.480 --> 0:19:10.800 what makes a temple? Our meet Stella. She's wise, fierce, 0:19:11.400 --> 0:19:16.160 and she's not alone. Temple University where owls call home. 0:19:16.640 --> 0:19:19.720 We are the Cherry and White. The city is our classroom, 0:19:19.960 --> 0:19:23.520 and we lead the rush hour, making our mark on 0:19:23.640 --> 0:19:28.160 every field around the world. A world without temple, well, 0:19:28.920 --> 0:19:34.520 that's like the sky without the North Star, Temple never stopping. 0:20:05.200 --> 0:20:08.119 A better network, as explained by a door. This is 0:20:08.240 --> 0:20:12.840 data on a wireless network. Look a door. Let's all 0:20:12.880 --> 0:20:16.639 go throw it together. When it gets busy, it can 0:20:16.680 --> 0:20:23.680 get overwhelmed like this. A better network prepares for heavy 0:20:23.720 --> 0:20:27.920 traffic with more capacity. The door is bigger. A better 0:20:28.040 --> 0:20:39.240 network like Horizon, for instance, a microbic door. Here the 0:20:39.320 --> 0:20:41.520 Eagles sit at O and two, and here we sit 0:20:41.600 --> 0:20:44.560 Eagles insider Dave's SPIDERO with the voice of the Eagles, 0:20:44.640 --> 0:20:47.840 Meryl Reese and the New York Jets wait on Sunday 0:20:47.960 --> 0:20:50.160 and it won't be easy up at MetLife Stadium. Merrill, 0:20:50.200 --> 0:20:52.760 give us some hope. Well, I think that the Eagles 0:20:52.760 --> 0:20:56.440 are a team that has not shown its true colors yet, 0:20:56.560 --> 0:20:58.360 other than the fact that we know they're Midnight Green. 0:20:58.800 --> 0:21:03.000 But they look nothing. They haven't shown them. There's some 0:21:03.400 --> 0:21:05.800 the helmets. But but you know, you we watched this 0:21:05.960 --> 0:21:09.160 team this summer, and I know that you get excited 0:21:09.160 --> 0:21:11.040 about a game like we saw in Green Bay, and 0:21:11.119 --> 0:21:13.239 then you you come down the earth and you say, well, 0:21:13.280 --> 0:21:16.440 there's no game planning involved by the Packers defense, and 0:21:16.680 --> 0:21:20.080 it's not a regular season game. But you still see 0:21:20.160 --> 0:21:23.200 certain things. You see what Bradford can be in a 0:21:23.320 --> 0:21:26.160 game like that. You see what the running backs can 0:21:26.280 --> 0:21:28.520 be in a game like that. You see Matthews, and 0:21:28.640 --> 0:21:31.679 you see Aglare and the things that they can contribute. 0:21:31.960 --> 0:21:35.119 And then the season stars and other than that second 0:21:35.160 --> 0:21:37.879 half in Atlanta where the offense came to life, it 0:21:38.000 --> 0:21:42.920 has been dismal. And I say to myself, this cannot possibly, 0:21:43.520 --> 0:21:47.680 this cannot be the team that people nationally were projected 0:21:47.720 --> 0:21:50.359 not only to be a playoff contender, but to be 0:21:50.640 --> 0:21:54.600 a super Bowl contender. So I want to wait and 0:21:54.920 --> 0:21:57.960 see before I say, boy, the Eagles in deep trouble. 0:21:59.280 --> 0:22:03.399 Is this the games? You know, My theory is always 0:22:03.440 --> 0:22:06.119 there's no such thing as a must game in September, 0:22:07.040 --> 0:22:09.680 But I might have been wrong. This is a must 0:22:09.800 --> 0:22:13.800 game for this team. Um, I know all the statistics 0:22:13.880 --> 0:22:17.440 about if if you're owing to how few twenty four 0:22:17.560 --> 0:22:20.720 percent of the teams go to the playoffs and seventy 0:22:20.760 --> 0:22:23.480 five you know, seventy six percent? Don't something like that. 0:22:23.600 --> 0:22:26.439 I know all those stats, but throw them out the window. 0:22:26.480 --> 0:22:28.800 We've seen an Eagles team in two thousand and three 0:22:29.359 --> 0:22:33.240 open Lincoln Financial Field with the resounding thud and lose 0:22:33.320 --> 0:22:35.680 the following week to New England and go on to 0:22:35.760 --> 0:22:38.600 the NFC Championship game that year. So we don't. I 0:22:38.640 --> 0:22:42.640 don't forget the statistics. It's how the team. But I'm 0:22:42.680 --> 0:22:45.639 saying this week this is a key game. This is 0:22:45.680 --> 0:22:48.000 a key game. They have to show that they can 0:22:48.080 --> 0:22:51.439 beat a New York Jets team that what less than 0:22:51.520 --> 0:22:59.159 a month ago look perpect perplexed and confused. Look, we 0:22:59.240 --> 0:23:02.639 can talk about the Jets defense. They're very good. They 0:23:02.800 --> 0:23:06.480 manhandled Andrew Luck last Monday Night. But the Jests of 0:23:07.119 --> 0:23:11.080 the Jests offense, they're run by Ryan Fitzpatrick, who looks 0:23:11.119 --> 0:23:14.080 like he should be back at Harvard teaching philosophy. With 0:23:14.200 --> 0:23:17.320 that bushy beard and that big mustache, he looks nothing 0:23:17.400 --> 0:23:19.800 like a quarterback, and for that matter, he does not 0:23:20.080 --> 0:23:24.440 have starting quarterback skills. He is a journeyman quarterback. He 0:23:24.560 --> 0:23:27.760 can manage a game. Jets offensive line is pretty good, 0:23:28.119 --> 0:23:32.920 but look at their receivers. Deckers Woo Sue's out, so 0:23:33.040 --> 0:23:35.960 you have Brandon sure about Decker and Brandon Marshall can 0:23:36.040 --> 0:23:39.800 play that Decker was out, I think it's unlikely that 0:23:39.840 --> 0:23:42.600 he would play, but it's very questionable disappoint But basically 0:23:42.600 --> 0:23:46.720
