WEBVTT - The Post-Game Show: Eagles lose to Jets 24-18 0:00:38.320 --> 0:00:41.720 The Eagles come up oh just so short of having 0:00:41.760 --> 0:00:45.599 a perfect pre season, falling twenty four to eighteen at 0:00:45.640 --> 0:00:48.360 the hands of the New York Jets in the process, 0:00:48.400 --> 0:00:51.879 though quarterback Tim Tebow throwing two touchdowns, going eleven of 0:00:51.960 --> 0:00:56.720 seventeen for one hundred and eighty nine yards. However, the 0:00:56.760 --> 0:01:00.400 Eagles will now turn their attention to the regular season 0:01:00.440 --> 0:01:03.440 as they get ready to face the Atlanta Falcons on Monday, 0:01:03.560 --> 0:01:07.119 September fourteen. Welcome to the postgame Show presented by Rico. 0:01:07.200 --> 0:01:11.680 I'm Chris McPherson alongside former Eagles linebacker Ike Reese. Ike. 0:01:12.080 --> 0:01:15.120 The big story of the night the third quarterback position, 0:01:15.520 --> 0:01:20.039 Matt Barkley Tim Tebow. Who will emerge victorious? I think 0:01:20.040 --> 0:01:22.360 we had some different results to night. Matt Barkley got 0:01:22.360 --> 0:01:25.520 to start, but to me, Tebow was clearly, at least 0:01:25.520 --> 0:01:28.320 on this night, the better of the two quarterbacks. Yeah. 0:01:28.360 --> 0:01:31.440 I mean, obviously, this was Tim Tebow's best game as 0:01:31.480 --> 0:01:35.080 an Eagle so far this preseason and a little bit 0:01:35.160 --> 0:01:37.600 unfair for Matt Barkley. When you think about the competition, 0:01:37.720 --> 0:01:40.840 you're trying to divide up the amount of plays and 0:01:40.959 --> 0:01:43.200 time out there on the field. Matt Barkley. Because the 0:01:43.240 --> 0:01:46.360 New York Jets did a great job of a time 0:01:46.360 --> 0:01:49.559 of possession doing the first and the third periods, Matt 0:01:49.560 --> 0:01:51.560 Barkley didn't get a whole lot of time out there, 0:01:51.960 --> 0:01:55.040 whereas Tim Tebow was able to sustain some dribs, he 0:01:55.080 --> 0:01:57.560 was able to get in the red zone and therefore 0:01:57.760 --> 0:02:00.320 he spent more time out there on the field. Part 0:02:00.320 --> 0:02:02.520 of it is the Eagles defense is not helping Matt 0:02:02.520 --> 0:02:04.880 Barkley out, but a bigger part of it is is 0:02:04.880 --> 0:02:07.160 Tim Tebow and how much rhythm he was in to 0:02:07.280 --> 0:02:09.840 night and being able to move the ball down the field. 0:02:10.120 --> 0:02:13.760 You control time of possession by picking up first downs. 0:02:13.800 --> 0:02:15.680 When you don't complete passes, when you don't pick up 0:02:15.720 --> 0:02:18.799 first downs, you're gonna be on the sideline watching. Credit 0:02:18.840 --> 0:02:21.119 to Tim Tebow in the unit. When he was out there, 0:02:21.240 --> 0:02:23.200 he was able to move the ball, got in scoring 0:02:23.280 --> 0:02:26.720 position several times, and one interception in the red zone 0:02:26.720 --> 0:02:28.320 where he sort of forced the ball on the fourth 0:02:28.360 --> 0:02:31.120 and fifth team, But for the most part, that wasn't 0:02:31.200 --> 0:02:34.680 much negative to Tim Tebow's play tonight. No. I thought 0:02:34.680 --> 0:02:37.000 we saw a live growth from Tebow throughout the course 0:02:37.040 --> 0:02:39.680 of the preseason, and it all came to a head tonight. 0:02:40.200 --> 0:02:42.359 Very accurate. He was quick in terms get round of 0:02:42.360 --> 0:02:44.120 the football. He was able to dump off and make 0:02:44.120 --> 0:02:46.400 those short passes to be able to get some extra yards. 0:02:46.600 --> 0:02:49.160 He yes, you mentioned the interception ike where he forced 0:02:49.200 --> 0:02:50.920 the ball maybe at the one time him have to, 0:02:51.120 --> 0:02:53.080 but I thought he was trying to get in some 0:02:53.120 --> 0:02:56.320 of those tight windows. And that second touchdown passed the 0:02:56.400 --> 0:02:58.959 one in the fourth quarter to Freddie Martino. It was 0:02:58.960 --> 0:03:01.760 a situation where I think the old Tebow would have 0:03:01.840 --> 0:03:04.880 ran with the football open lane, you know, you have 0:03:04.880 --> 0:03:06.680 a chance to go for the goal line. That's the 0:03:06.680 --> 0:03:08.840 type of situation where I think Tebow usually in the 0:03:08.840 --> 0:03:11.000 past would have been like, I'm gonna bring it down 0:03:11.040 --> 0:03:13.800 and go after it. Whereas here he flings it to 0:03:13.800 --> 0:03:17.919 the sideline. It's a perfect pass, but an outstanding catch, 0:03:18.320 --> 0:03:22.600 standing catch. It gets lost in the whole Tebow may yeah, 0:03:22.680 --> 0:03:24.799 and it was Tebow's second touchdown, but yeah, that was 0:03:24.840 --> 0:03:28.760 an outstanding catch from Martino. But the one thing you 0:03:28.800 --> 0:03:30.679 see about Tim Tebow to night, you brought up the 0:03:30.720 --> 0:03:34.480 fact just a couple of weeks ago against the Baltimore Ravens, 0:03:34.760 --> 0:03:37.600 it may have been with Tibo had that same opportunity 0:03:37.600 --> 0:03:39.760 to either run it in or throw it and hit 0:03:40.160 --> 0:03:41.960 Rashid Bailey in the back of the end zone. He 0:03:42.080 --> 0:03:44.280 chose to run it and he did not get in 0:03:44.520 --> 0:03:46.920 where there's the growth. In just a couple of weeks 0:03:47.080 --> 0:03:49.960 with Tim Tebow, same sort of option for him there 0:03:50.120 --> 0:03:52.200 to run the ball or either throw it, and he 0:03:52.280 --> 0:03:55.080 did a great job of sort of feathering baiting the 0:03:55.160 --> 0:03:57.320 defensive back making him think he was going to run 0:03:57.360 --> 0:04:01.200 the ball, created another space between he and the receiver Martino, 0:04:01.440 --> 0:04:03.560 and he was able to dip it over and with 0:04:03.760 --> 0:04:06.320 nice touch. The one thing people tended to get about 0:04:06.360 --> 0:04:10.280 Tim Tebow and his early struggles, his early struggles here 0:04:10.280 --> 0:04:12.760 in the preseason is that Tim Tebow has been away 0:04:12.760 --> 0:04:15.280 from football for two years, so it takes a little 0:04:15.280 --> 0:04:17.640 while to sort of getting your rhythm, get a field 0:04:17.640 --> 0:04:20.600 for the game. What you saw tonight was the complete 0:04:20.600 --> 0:04:23.360 package of Tim Tebow running the ball when he needed 0:04:23.360 --> 0:04:25.800 to run the ball, picking up huge games a seventeen 0:04:25.920 --> 0:04:29.440 yard run early in the I believe it was the 0:04:29.440 --> 0:04:32.640 second quarter to sustain a drive, you know, picking up 0:04:32.640 --> 0:04:35.599 tough yards inside running the ball. Also because he was 0:04:35.640 --> 0:04:38.039 a threat running the ball as well as throwing it. 0:04:38.400 --> 0:04:41.800 You saw when right when most was in there with him, 0:04:41.880 --> 0:04:45.240 he was able to get bigger running lanes because there's 0:04:45.279 --> 0:04:48.120 a dual threat at the running position with the quarterback 0:04:48.120 --> 0:04:50.000 and a running back. That's the type of threat Tim 0:04:50.040 --> 0:04:53.599 Tebow opposes for defenses. So I guess it comes to 0:04:53.640 --> 0:04:56.360 the very end here. What did the Eagles want at 0:04:56.360 --> 0:04:59.400 that third quarterback position. You have quarterback Sam Branford. You 0:04:59.440 --> 0:05:01.800 know what brings to the table was the perfect ten 0:05:01.880 --> 0:05:05.000 for ten against the Green Bay Packers, marvelous in every 0:05:05.040 --> 0:05:08.800 asset from timing to accuracy, to touch to command of 0:05:08.839 --> 0:05:12.039 the offense. You have Mark Sanchez, a veteran who has 0:05:12.080 --> 0:05:15.160 the experience, who can run the offense. He can bring 0:05:15.240 --> 0:05:17.800 the tempo. Chip Kelly has a lot of faith in him. 0:05:18.120 --> 0:05:19.560 What do you want for that number three guy? Do 0:05:19.560 --> 0:05:21.920 you want someone like Matt Barkley, who I think it 0:05:22.000 --> 0:05:24.800 is very similar to Mark Sanchez in terms of his 0:05:24.839 --> 0:05:27.680 playing style, can run the offense efficiently. I think his 0:05:27.880 --> 0:05:31.120 arm has gotten stronger. Or do you want someone like 0:05:31.160 --> 0:05:34.120 Tebo who, as you mentioned Ike, brings that dual threat 0:05:34.200 --> 0:05:37.440 that brings the ability to run on the ground, who maybe, 0:05:37.480 --> 0:05:39.000 as we saw in Green Bay, could be put in 0:05:39.040 --> 0:05:41.880 for the two point conversion. Who maybe could be a 0:05:41.960 --> 0:05:45.280 red zone weapon, something that's a little bit different than 0:05:45.360 --> 0:05:48.080 what you have with Bradford and Sanchez. That's what I like. 0:05:48.360 --> 0:05:50.520 But ultimately the head coach is going to decide where 0:05:50.560 --> 0:05:53.840 he wants in that third string quarterback. I think he's 0:05:53.839 --> 0:05:55.800 had an extended period of time to look at Matt 0:05:55.800 --> 0:05:58.240 Barkley and see what he brings to the table. There 0:05:58.279 --> 0:06:01.560 is a certain amount of intrigue with Tim Tebow that 0:06:01.640 --> 0:06:05.559 Chip Kellys seems to have. I think Tim Kelly likes 0:06:05.560 --> 0:06:08.120 the fact that Tim Tebow has sort of improved as 0:06:08.120 --> 0:06:10.159 a quarterback, not just from where he was the last 0:06:10.160 --> 0:06:12.320 time he was in the National Football League, but also 0:06:12.440 --> 0:06:14.839 from when they worked him out in the spring. And again, 0:06:14.839 --> 0:06:18.120 you're talking about knocking rustoff from a guy who hasn't 0:06:18.120 --> 0:06:19.719 played in two years. I would put it to you 0:06:19.760 --> 0:06:23.279 this way. If this were Sam Bradford and he struggled 0:06:23.320 --> 0:06:26.520 the way Tim Tebow struggled through the preseason, most people 0:06:26.560 --> 0:06:29.240 would say he's knocking off the rust. He's been out 0:06:29.279 --> 0:06:31.560 of football for a year, he hasn't played in the year. 0:06:31.800 --> 0:06:34.800 I think the same sort of explanation applies when it 0:06:34.839 --> 0:06:38.599 comes to evaluating Tim Tebow as a quarterback, is that 0:06:38.880 --> 0:06:40.880 you watch him get better. All right, let's get to 0:06:40.920 --> 0:06:46.039 MetLife Sam and here from head coach Chip Kelly. Up 0:06:46.080 --> 0:06:48.600 and down with both, So we'll take a look at 0:06:48.600 --> 0:06:53.080 the film and go from there. Probably a little bit more, 0:06:53.279 --> 0:06:56.040 you know, had a little bit more successful. I think 0:06:56.040 --> 0:06:57.400 he gotta look at the film before you make any 0:06:57.400 --> 0:06:59.360 of those decisions. So to make a quick come out 0:06:59.400 --> 0:07:04.480 after a game isn't doesn't help anybody, hurt anybody. So 0:07:04.760 --> 0:07:10.120 he did a nice shop on those. I just thought 0:07:10.640 --> 0:07:12.920 fairest way to do it, you know, one, two, three, four, 0:07:12.960 --> 0:07:19.360 so pressions of Monsters Office. Yeah, he did. You know, 0:07:19.400 --> 0:07:22.240 obviously we wanted to keep Kevin, but just because of 0:07:22.280 --> 0:07:23.840 what we're keeping Cody Parkey out, we didn't have a 0:07:23.920 --> 0:07:27.080 chance to keep Kevin. So, um, you know, Raheim got 0:07:27.080 --> 0:07:30.000 the bulk of carries. You know, I thought he again, 0:07:30.080 --> 0:07:32.080 he was up and down. So you know, we'll take 0:07:32.080 --> 0:07:34.560 a look at it, tpe and see. Um, you know 0:07:34.600 --> 0:07:37.040 how how it how it plans out. Sometimes it's blocking, 0:07:37.120 --> 0:07:39.600 sometimes it's the back. But I thought he was up 0:07:39.600 --> 0:07:42.840 and down. It seems like it. Yeah, I don't think 0:07:42.840 --> 0:07:45.680 there was anything pressing. I mean one series is enough 0:07:45.720 --> 0:07:47.440 for Keigo. Seemed like he was in a couple of tackles, 0:07:47.480 --> 0:07:49.040 got you know, yeah, we just want to get him 0:07:49.080 --> 0:07:50.360 on the field. Last time was on the field was 0:07:50.360 --> 0:07:53.480 against the Patriots and I think thirteen or whatever it was. 0:07:53.560 --> 0:07:56.119 So just to get him out there and make some plays. 0:07:56.160 --> 0:07:59.239 And obviously he did. You know, he flashed really quickly 0:07:59.240 --> 0:08:01.440 on that first drive and then um, you know we 0:08:01.520 --> 0:08:03.680 got a mountain because you see it right now, do 0:08:03.720 --> 0:08:05.560 you feel that in your mind you know what you 0:08:05.560 --> 0:08:07.800 need to do formulate the sifty three man roster for 0:08:07.960 --> 0:08:10.240 Because there's so much depth to certain area, it makes 0:08:10.240 --> 0:08:12.520 it that much more difficult. Now, it's just like anything. 0:08:12.520 --> 0:08:13.760 We have a lot of film to watch. We'll watch 0:08:13.800 --> 0:08:15.040 it on the bus ride home, and then we'll meet 0:08:15.080 --> 0:08:17.360 again tomorrow morning. So we've got all three phases to 0:08:17.360 --> 0:08:18.920 look at and then meet us the staff, so we 0:08:18.960 --> 0:08:21.640 don't have anything preconceived notions before we look at it. 0:08:21.640 --> 0:08:23.120 We always have to evaluate the last game. Do you 0:08:23.120 --> 0:08:26.200 hope to make the decisions tomorrow? Now? We're gonna make 0:08:26.200 --> 0:08:28.440 the decisions when they have to be made, So we're 0:08:28.440 --> 0:08:30.600 going to feel anything to get clarified on those backup 0:08:30.680 --> 0:08:33.120 safety jobs now again out looking at you gotta look 0:08:33.120 --> 0:08:34.760 at the tap to see all that stuff. So it's 0:08:34.960 --> 0:08:36.360 you know, there's a lot that goes into it you 0:08:36.400 --> 0:08:38.280 can't really come out of. I mean, it's not fair 0:08:38.320 --> 0:08:39.760 to the players either to say, hey, oh staying on 0:08:39.760 --> 0:08:41.319 the sideline, I saw this. We're gonna take this guy. 0:08:41.360 --> 0:08:43.520 You know. That's that's Uh, we'll do a thorough a 0:08:43.520 --> 0:08:45.880 film evaluation of everything, wat and of everything, and then uh, 0:08:46.600 --> 0:08:50.920 we're gonna have everything done by Saturday at four, play 0:08:50.960 --> 0:08:54.120 to night. How much goes into making the decision based 0:08:54.160 --> 0:08:58.080 on the entire cancame, It goes into everything goes into 0:08:58.080 --> 0:09:00.560 the decision. It's it's just can't be a one game. 0:09:01.160 --> 0:09:03.280 You know, this is this is it, you know, make 0:09:03.400 --> 0:09:05.160 or break. You know, this is an American idol. This 0:09:05.320 --> 0:09:07.640 is you get a whole compilation of time to to 0:09:07.760 --> 0:09:09.880 what we're doing, and you know, we'll go back through 0:09:09.960 --> 0:09:12.000 everything we have and then you'll try to pick the 0:09:12.040 --> 0:09:18.760 best fifty three. I feel like Cody Parking, Yeah, I'm 0:09:18.800 --> 0:09:24.360 comfortable with Cody Parking. Yeah. Yeah, we don't play the 0:09:24.400 --> 0:09:26.640 Falcons for two weeks, but you know, we're really excited 0:09:26.679 --> 0:09:28.040 that we have a Pro Bowl kicker on our side, 0:09:30.480 --> 0:09:33.720 and any would have kicked twenty field goals twenty if 0:09:33.760 --> 0:09:35.439 it was a real game. If we can go hypothetical, 0:09:35.480 --> 0:09:38.800 I can say the hypothetical outcome, Yeah, he's healthy enough 0:09:40.080 --> 0:09:42.880 on this particular game. But the totality of the preseason, 0:09:46.160 --> 0:09:47.480 I don't know what I thought he was gonna be. 0:09:47.520 --> 0:09:49.440 I don't have any preconceived notions of what guys are 0:09:49.480 --> 0:09:50.679 going to be or not going to be. We let 0:09:50.720 --> 0:09:55.800 it all just express itself. So Sason, not until I 0:09:55.880 --> 0:09:58.160 get my final game watched, what did you think of 0:10:00.000 --> 0:10:04.760 I thought he threw a nice ball, you know, I 0:10:04.840 --> 0:10:06.360 think that that was a proper read and put it 0:10:06.440 --> 0:10:09.040 up there and gave gave Freddy a chance to get 0:10:09.080 --> 0:10:12.839 underneath it make catch. It's really hard for cornerbacks in 0:10:12.880 --> 0:10:17.280 this league and play from from day one. Um, Eric Brow, 0:10:17.360 --> 0:10:18.760 what have you seen out of him in terms of 0:10:18.800 --> 0:10:23.839 money outside play through the preseason? And I think, just 0:10:24.400 --> 0:10:25.959 like most of those young guys, I've just seen some 0:10:26.120 --> 0:10:27.920 ups and downs. They've seen him make some big time 0:10:27.920 --> 0:10:29.800 plays and then I've seen him, you know, get beat 0:10:29.840 --> 0:10:32.480 in certain situations. But that's going to happen, especially you 0:10:32.559 --> 0:10:34.679 know in this league where every receiver is good, every 0:10:34.720 --> 0:10:37.320 quarterback's accurate. So I've seen up and down from Eric, 0:10:37.360 --> 0:10:40.960 but I see him improving. And make a decision with Tim, 0:10:41.160 --> 0:10:42.839 and you make a decision with mad or if their 0:10:43.000 --> 0:10:45.160 quarterback job. But what are some of the prosest times? 0:10:45.200 --> 0:10:47.400 And you're gonna look at when you can evaluate this 0:10:47.600 --> 0:10:50.120 entire thing over the next couple of days. Also for 0:10:50.240 --> 0:10:52.520 me to list them, and we're gonna look at everything 0:10:52.559 --> 0:10:55.400 that they've done, every snap they've taken since they've had 0:10:55.440 --> 0:10:57.400 both of them here. So you play these guys in 0:10:57.760 --> 0:11:00.480 three weeks, I guess sort of all and just as 0:11:00.480 --> 0:11:03.760 EPs playing it tonight and then again turning around and playing, 0:11:04.480 --> 0:11:06.760 at least we know the route will take to the stadium. 0:11:06.840 --> 0:11:09.720 So I don't think there are many challenges on challenges, 0:11:09.720 --> 0:11:11.679 I don't think. I mean, Todd was pretty vanilla tonight 0:11:11.720 --> 0:11:13.720 and we were. They were very vanilla and we were 0:11:13.800 --> 0:11:15.560 very vanilla. So and a lot of guys that played 0:11:15.559 --> 0:11:18.000 tonight won't be the group that's playing when we play 0:11:18.040 --> 0:11:21.760 them in three weeks. I thought I made nice catch 0:11:21.800 --> 0:11:23.200 on the on the on the ball at Timmy threw 0:11:23.280 --> 0:11:25.040 him in the corner. He had to drop on their sidelines. 0:11:25.040 --> 0:11:27.079 So again, a lot of those guys, you know, good plays, 0:11:27.720 --> 0:11:30.360 some ups and some downs. Sometimes takes time, but just 0:11:30.480 --> 0:11:33.760 the totality, what has been really positive or stood out 0:11:33.800 --> 0:11:40.080 to you overall this whole preseason about Tim our quarterback. 0:11:40.360 --> 0:11:44.120 We continue to talk about the quarterback. I thought Tim's 0:11:44.120 --> 0:11:49.160 had a good camp. You had Miles awesome dressed me. 0:11:49.800 --> 0:11:52.040 You didn't play any more. So he agrees to be 0:11:52.120 --> 0:11:57.840 on that now he couldn't go tonight. Coach Chip Kelly 0:11:58.040 --> 0:12:00.880 not giving any clues as who's gonna win any of 0:12:00.920 --> 0:12:02.520 the jobs. Again, the Eagles have to get to the 0:12:02.600 --> 0:12:06.200 fifty three man roster limit by Saturday at four pm. 0:12:06.320 --> 0:12:10.360 Now we want to hear your thoughts on who shine tonight, 0:12:10.440 --> 0:12:12.719 Who earned themselves a roster job?

So 0:14:17.360 --> 0:14:19.680 I we were talking there during a break off camera. 0:14:19.720 --> 0:14:22.040 You're a little upset of the fact that the postgame 0:14:22.120 --> 0:14:25.320 meals the players get downadays with Chip Kelly. You know, well, 0:14:25.520 --> 0:14:27.400 it may not just be with Jim Kelly. It may 0:14:27.480 --> 0:14:30.120 just be the NFL nowadays. That could be right, yes 0:14:30.520 --> 0:14:32.480 back when I had back when I played, and they 0:14:32.560 --> 0:14:34.400 went we were on the row, and whether we were 0:14:34.440 --> 0:14:36.600 coming back from Washington, d C. On the train or 0:14:36.720 --> 0:14:39.960 we were coming from New York on the Turnpike box lunch, 0:14:40.880 --> 0:14:43.400 lunch meat, soundwich, apple and a bag of chip. That's 0:14:43.440 --> 0:14:45.960 a hard fuck game. Nothing like that to sink your teething. 0:14:46.000 --> 0:14:47.800 I must tell you though we were excited to get 0:14:47.840 --> 0:14:51.000 those boxes. You know, we're hungry at their game. Did 0:14:51.480 --> 0:14:54.680 Andy ever hold it out if something happened? No comment. 0:14:56.520 --> 0:14:58.720 What's like from the player's mindset? What is it like 0:14:58.840 --> 0:15:02.240 for the guys Rashid Bailey's the raheem mosters, the guys 0:15:02.240 --> 0:15:04.440 who are on that bubble, not sure if they're going 0:15:04.520 --> 0:15:07.120 to get a call in the next you know, twenty 0:15:07.160 --> 0:15:10.400 four or forty eight hours. What is that time period like? Yeah, 0:15:10.440 --> 0:15:13.360 it's this. It's not an easy night to get through 0:15:13.440 --> 0:15:15.880 when you play that final game, that final preseason game. 0:15:15.920 --> 0:15:17.840 And I've been there for my first few years in 0:15:17.920 --> 0:15:20.480 this league. I wasn't guaranteed to spot on this roster. 0:15:20.920 --> 0:15:23.280 I entered every training campus if I had to make 0:15:23.320 --> 0:15:25.920 the team, and I played in every preseason game as 0:15:25.960 --> 0:15:27.720 if I was trying to make the team. So I 0:15:27.840 --> 0:15:30.240 often played in the fourth preseason game, like a lot 0:15:30.280 --> 0:15:33.320 of these guys have tonight. You hope you've done everything 0:15:33.840 --> 0:15:37.360 possible to give yourself the best opportunity to make the team. 0:15:37.680 --> 0:15:39.640 In the case of a guy like Rashid Bailey, I 0:15:39.680 --> 0:15:42.480 don't know if he could have done anything more, you know, Yeah, 0:15:42.600 --> 0:15:44.640 would you like to catch every pass throwing your way? 0:15:44.880 --> 0:15:46.440 Of course you will. But I think it was at 0:15:46.480 --> 0:15:49.600 least the second leading receiver on the team this preseason, 0:15:49.680 --> 0:15:52.600 if not the leading receiver this preseason. And a guy 0:15:52.680 --> 0:15:55.480 like Raheem Mosters, I mean, he done everything he could 0:15:55.480 --> 0:15:57.480 do tonight. He had to be the bail cow. He 0:15:57.600 --> 0:16:01.240 had to carry the load plus player a little some teams. Again, 0:16:01.680 --> 0:16:03.360 I don't know if he could do anything more. So 0:16:03.640 --> 0:16:06.440 those guys will sleep easy tonight, But there are a 0:16:06.520 --> 0:16:09.280 lot of guys they won't. They won't want to answer 0:16:09.320 --> 0:16:12.840 their phone tomorrow until after four or Saturday until after 0:16:12.920 --> 0:16:14.840 four or five o'clock. Most are gonna sleep easy after 0:16:14.920 --> 0:16:17.000 all that worked. They had to say the very least. 0:16:17.080 --> 0:16:19.040 So we're gonna go to the phone lights. Now we're 0:16:19.040 --> 0:16:21.720 gonna welcome in Carl from Washington, DC. Carl, Welcome to 0:16:21.800 --> 0:16:25.440 the Postgame Show present any boy RICO. Hey, guys, how's 0:16:25.480 --> 0:16:30.280 it going? Great show? Can't wait for the season. H 0:16:30.480 --> 0:16:33.840 As far as who makes it, I'm with I'm hoping 0:16:33.960 --> 0:16:38.240 daily does. I think he's shown a lot, especially coming 0:16:38.280 --> 0:16:41.680 from a Division three schools. I was rooting for a 0:16:41.760 --> 0:16:46.160 moffin on the offensive line. Yes, I'm not sure, although 0:16:46.200 --> 0:16:48.440 I got to give him a lot of credit. One 0:16:48.520 --> 0:16:52.040 question I wanted to ask, just a pure curiosity, the 0:16:52.160 --> 0:16:54.920 guys when they are signed to the practice squad. Are 0:16:55.000 --> 0:16:57.440 they paid per game like everybody else? Do they mate 0:16:57.480 --> 0:17:00.840 the lead minimum? Do they have contracts? I never knew 0:17:01.040 --> 0:17:04.119 how that practice squad works. I know their account team. Yeah, 0:17:04.200 --> 0:17:07.280 but as far as quarterbacks, I'm sorry. I'd still rather 0:17:07.320 --> 0:17:10.360 stick with Barkley than t Boat. I understandable. I appreciate 0:17:10.440 --> 0:17:13.800 the call, Carl. Yeah, you know call your question on 0:17:13.880 --> 0:17:16.800 the practice squad players. Yes, they are paid every week. 0:17:16.960 --> 0:17:18.879 They do receive a salary, but it is week to 0:17:18.960 --> 0:17:21.159 week as long as you remain on the practice squad. 0:17:21.320 --> 0:17:25.119 And no, it's not a whether it's a rookie minimum 0:17:25.240 --> 0:17:27.520 or whatever year minimum they're in, it's not the same 0:17:27.680 --> 0:17:30.479 in the NFL salary. It's a set wage for all 0:17:30.600 --> 0:17:33.959 practice squad players. I'm not sure what that is at 0:17:34.040 --> 0:17:37.400 this moment, so but I tell you this, it beats 0:17:37.440 --> 0:17:39.800 working a nine to five somewhere whatever it is they're making, 0:17:39.880 --> 0:17:43.080 and it gives them an opportunity to keep fighting for 0:17:43.200 --> 0:17:45.760 their their dream to someday possibly make it in the 0:17:45.840 --> 0:17:47.760 National Football League. So what will happen now is the 0:17:47.760 --> 0:17:50.040 Eagles have to get from seventy five to fifty three. 0:17:50.359 --> 0:17:52.680 They're gonna have to waive the players. So what happens, 0:17:52.720 --> 0:17:55.720 they'll go. They'll be subject to waivers until Sunday, I 0:17:55.840 --> 0:17:58.080 think at noon, and that one pm, teams will be 0:17:58.200 --> 0:18:01.840 notified if those plays have been claimed, and if they 0:18:01.920 --> 0:18:04.080 haven't been claimed, then they can have them on the 0:18:04.160 --> 0:18:06.920 practice squad and sign him. Now, the practice squad there's 0:18:07.000 --> 0:18:11.000 eight players that you're allowed, along with two veteran exemptions. 0:18:11.320 --> 0:18:13.240 They players have, it's a certain amount of experience that 0:18:13.280 --> 0:18:14.760 you're allowed to have. You can't have a ton of 0:18:14.880 --> 0:18:17.880 NFL experience. Again, you want to get guys who mostly rookies, 0:18:17.960 --> 0:18:19.879 first year players, guys who have not been in the 0:18:19.920 --> 0:18:21.880 league very long, to give them a chance to grow 0:18:22.200 --> 0:18:24.760 and develop. So certainly they're gonna be some guys who 0:18:24.840 --> 0:18:27.880 the Eagles have to say, hey, maybe he's good enough 0:18:27.920 --> 0:18:29.679 to be on the roster, but maybe we get him 0:18:29.680 --> 0:18:32.840 to the practice squad. Do you risk exposing him to 0:18:32.920 --> 0:18:35.440 waivers where another team could claim them or all of 0:18:35.520 --> 0:18:37.680 a sudden, you know, maybe you want to keep around 0:18:37.720 --> 0:18:40.200 and develop them. But if he escapes, then you lose 0:18:40.240 --> 0:18:44.200 the opportunity. Well, and that's that's the tough balancing act 0:18:44.280 --> 0:18:47.360 that Chip Kelly has to try to sort of perform here, 0:18:47.760 --> 0:18:49.800 because there are players you don't want to put out 0:18:49.840 --> 0:18:51.840 there that I'm protected, that you like, that you want 0:18:51.840 --> 0:18:53.960 to keep on his team, but you can't keep everybody. 0:18:54.000 --> 0:18:56.159 There are certain guys you need to be ready for 0:18:56.240 --> 0:18:59.320 the Atlanta Falcons, and you need fifty three guys that 0:18:59.520 --> 0:19:01.840 you can whos from that will be a part of 0:19:01.880 --> 0:19:03.920 your active roster. And let me just say real quick, 0:19:04.240 --> 0:19:06.680 I wish the NFL could find a way, whether it's 0:19:06.720 --> 0:19:10.120 financially or what have you, to keep all fifty three 0:19:10.200 --> 0:19:13.040 players active. Do away with the practice squad. These guys 0:19:13.119 --> 0:19:15.200 work all week. They do the same amount of work 0:19:15.560 --> 0:19:17.640 that the guys who play on Sunday do. The only 0:19:17.720 --> 0:19:20.440 thing they don't do is play on Sunday and be 0:19:20.600 --> 0:19:23.560 paid like an NFL player, but they prepare like an 0:19:23.640 --> 0:19:26.160 NFL player every week. I wish there was some sort 0:19:26.200 --> 0:19:27.800 of way they could find a way to just make 0:19:27.840 --> 0:19:30.359 all fifty three guys active. I so I agree with that. 0:19:30.560 --> 0:19:32.720 So now what we do is bring in the third 0:19:32.800 --> 0:19:35.879 member of our crew, NFL Film Senior producer Greg Coseell. 0:19:36.240 --> 0:19:39.840 He's gonna break down Tim Tebow's second quarter touchdown pass 0:19:40.119 --> 0:19:42.720 to one of those players who's on the roster bubble, 0:19:43.000 --> 0:19:45.920 Rashid Bailey. Let's take it away the eighteen yards score. 0:19:48.160 --> 0:19:50.879 Let's continue the theme of players who needed to perform 0:19:51.000 --> 0:19:54.280 well tonight for the Eagles in the final preseason game. 0:19:54.720 --> 0:19:58.359 One of those players is Jalen Watkins. Now, Watkins did 0:19:58.400 --> 0:20:00.560 some good things in the first half, and he also 0:20:00.680 --> 0:20:03.960 struggled on a touchdown pass. Let's show that play first. 0:20:04.320 --> 0:20:07.360 Here you see Watkins right here. Now he's in man 0:20:07.480 --> 0:20:10.679 to man coverage, you can see by his technique and positioning. 0:20:11.000 --> 0:20:14.000 Now the safety here, there's a single high safety is 0:20:14.119 --> 0:20:16.280
