Latest / Inside the Birds: A Philadelphia Eagles Podcast / ITB: Is Christian Parker The Missing Piece For The Cowboys Defense?
Transcript
- 0:09Speaker 1: Inside the Birds is back. What's going on? Everybody? It's
- 0:15Speaker 1: Jeff Mosher Adam Kaplan and we are continuing our podcast
- 0:19Speaker 1: series looking around at all of the coaching changes in
- 0:22Speaker 1: the NFC East. This one's gonna be on Dallas, which
- 0:25Speaker 1: is one major major change, and that's defensive coordinator for
- 0:29Speaker 1: the Cowboys. And of course he comes from the Eagles
- 0:32Speaker 1: and he is Christian Parker. The first thing that sticks
- 0:35Speaker 1: in my mind at him when we talk about this
- 0:37Speaker 1: is that this is, and I think in a good way,
- 0:40Speaker 1: a very un Cowboys like move. If you look at
- 0:42Speaker 1: their past hirings of defensive coordinators, they're constantly chasing the retreads,
- 0:48Speaker 1: whether it was Mike Zimmer or eber Flus or like,
- 0:52Speaker 1: wasn't Rod Maron Ellie at one point they're defense.
- 0:55Speaker 2: Yeah, many years ago. But the thing is Christian Parker
- 0:58Speaker 2: that this is crazy. I mean they're this is three
- 1:00Speaker 2: straight years that they're having a new coordinator. Yes, Zimmer
- 1:04Speaker 2: for one and then last year with eber Flus. If
- 1:07Speaker 2: you got cam by the Bears, that was that.
- 1:09Speaker 1: Was Yeah, who was before Zimmer? It was another one
- 1:12Speaker 1: of those like older guy, I'll go check, but it
- 1:15Speaker 1: was somebody who was like you've heard of him, he's
- 1:17Speaker 1: been right.
- 1:18Speaker 3: I know that.
- 1:19Speaker 2: Oh that's the end that well, technically I guess it
- 1:23Speaker 2: could it technically could be four and four years then
- 1:25Speaker 2: on your point, because Zimmer was twenty three, was twenty four,
- 1:30Speaker 2: Ibers is twenty five and and Christiah Parker's in twenty six.
- 1:34Speaker 2: Just for Dic saying that. And the last the thing
- 1:37Speaker 2: is like you could, you could fire coaches all you
- 1:39Speaker 2: want m hm. And they were totally undisciplined and embarrassment
- 1:43Speaker 2: last season on defense. But it's what point are they
- 1:47Speaker 2: is Jerry Jones and Will McLay. Will mcclay's a personnel
- 1:52Speaker 2: director and Jerry Jones he basically is their assistant general manager,
- 1:55Speaker 2: they having the title. He's resisted leaving. They paid him
- 1:58Speaker 2: a lot of money. He's really smart. But unfortunately they
- 2:01Speaker 2: keep drafting and guys that don't play within the team
- 2:04Speaker 2: concept all the time. Major lack of discipline, yep, and
- 2:07Speaker 2: it just shows. It's just it's embarrassing. Now they brought
- 2:10Speaker 2: in good team guys like Kenny Clark, Quinn Williams. Quinn
- 2:13Speaker 2: and Williams became a big team leader. If a rough
- 2:15Speaker 2: start with the Jets, he grew up and he's a
- 2:17Speaker 2: really good football player and he's committed doing the right thing.
- 2:20Speaker 2: But you can't have three or four guys like that.
- 2:22Speaker 2: You need to have eleven guys who get it. That's
- 2:24Speaker 2: why the Eagles you were talking about on our other show, historically,
- 2:27Speaker 2: if this division for years have dominated, they didn't win it,
- 2:30Speaker 2: they went farther or whatever the case may be, They've
- 2:32Speaker 2: been They've been the best team for many years because
- 2:34Speaker 2: they get higher character players. You always have to have
- 2:36Speaker 2: the best players. You need to have guys who buy
- 2:40Speaker 2: into the team concept, and they just don't.
- 2:43Speaker 1: Agreed agreed by the way that list I was talking about. Okay,
- 2:47Speaker 1: so last year is ebra Flus. The year before that
- 2:50Speaker 1: was we just talked about zimmer right, so kind of
- 2:53Speaker 1: retread head coach DC right the year before that. Now,
- 2:56Speaker 1: they had Dan Quinn for a while. He did a
- 2:58Speaker 1: nice job there, but he did fall into the pattern
- 3:00Speaker 1: of a guy who'd been a coordinator and a head
- 3:02Speaker 1: coach with the Falcons, right, And then before that it
- 3:06Speaker 1: was Mike Nolan, another guy who had been around for
- 3:08Speaker 1: a while head coach coordinator, and then before that it
- 3:11Speaker 1: was Rod Marinelli for many years, and before that it
- 3:14Speaker 1: was Monte Kiffen, So.
- 3:17Speaker 2: Oh my god.
- 3:20Speaker 1: Yeah, them getting a first time young play caller who's
- 3:23Speaker 1: never been a coordinator or a head coach is like
- 3:25Speaker 1: a decade or so in the making for this.
- 3:28Speaker 2: D d Q did a good job, like he did.
- 3:30Speaker 2: He's the last one to do a good job. Zim
- 3:32Speaker 2: er Kanda. He was. He had been out of coaching
- 3:36Speaker 2: for a while, and they tried with our old friend
- 3:38Speaker 2: Paul Gunther. It just didn't work, and then Gunther's now
- 3:42Speaker 2: at the U n l V. They're doing a good
- 3:43Speaker 2: job there. Dan Mullen and gun for coach together or
- 3:46Speaker 2: Sinus tiny Asinus College behind King of Prussia. One of
- 3:49Speaker 2: my brothers went by the way, and uh, it just
- 3:52Speaker 2: they're doing a good job there. But just Dallas has
- 3:55Speaker 2: been an absolute dumpster fire on defense spite there. I mean, look,
- 3:58Speaker 2: they're talented, m just they getting disciplined. Now, you hope
- 4:02Speaker 2: with Christian Parker, a younger voice, first younger voice in
- 4:06Speaker 2: a while running in their defense. Probably probably a decade
- 4:10Speaker 2: or more that they had someone under forty. But anyway,
- 4:13Speaker 2: you've got someone who knows who's going to come an
- 4:16Speaker 2: absolutely fangio system. They're gonna they're going to change through
- 4:19Speaker 2: thirty four front, which they haven't run really in a
- 4:23Speaker 2: number of years. Dan Quinn runs to forty three, but
- 4:26Speaker 2: it looks like a thirty four, But we're talking about
- 4:28Speaker 2: two thirty four or two overhangs, right, it's different and
- 4:31Speaker 2: you need beef upfront. I mean, it's funny Jerry Jones
- 4:34Speaker 2: overdid it? You know with the trades with defensive tackles,
- 4:37Speaker 2: they're going to have plenty. The question is the fit
- 4:40Speaker 2: that's going to be the issue.
- 4:42Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean ideally you're going to think, as you know,
- 4:44Speaker 1: what the Eagles will have to worry not worry about here.
- 4:47Speaker 1: But understand about this Cowboys defense is that they're going
- 4:50Speaker 1: to try like every team wants to do, is they
- 4:53Speaker 1: want to try to be better against the run and
- 4:54Speaker 1: be able to stop the run out of Nickel. I
- 4:57Speaker 1: mean most teams want to be able to have a
- 4:59Speaker 1: good enough fronts where they can do that. Now the
- 5:01Speaker 1: Cowboys have struggled to stop the run out of base
- 5:04Speaker 1: so so Parker's got his work cut out for him.
- 5:06Speaker 1: But they obviously have been addressing the defensive front. Now
- 5:09Speaker 1: if they can do this at him, they have stockpiled
- 5:12Speaker 1: some nice young pass rushers for their one when they
- 5:15Speaker 1: want to get to nickel and have these like edges
- 5:17Speaker 1: overhangs between Eziraku and a couple of guys that they've
- 5:21Speaker 1: drafted over the last few years. They got somebody. It
- 5:23Speaker 1: was a Houston who played well for them last year.
- 5:26Speaker 2: Yeah, this is the guy who couldn't stay healthy. I
- 5:29Speaker 2: know the Lion's talking to them when they had them,
- 5:30Speaker 2: they were so proud of that. That fine for them,
- 5:32Speaker 2: but he just could not stay on the field. I
- 5:34Speaker 2: went to Cleveland briefly and then did a good job
- 5:37Speaker 2: last year. Yeah, I did a really good job. But
- 5:40Speaker 2: so looking at this is what the Eagles are going
- 5:42Speaker 2: to be facing the front, They're going to be deep
- 5:45Speaker 2: at on thet tackle Diggie Zoa Clarks. We mentioned Solomon
- 5:52Speaker 2: Thomas is sort of a tweeter Carrion It rent for
- 5:54Speaker 2: Winfrey parrieon Winfrey never made it with Washington. Yeah, excuse me,
- 5:59Speaker 2: Cleveland got in trouble, was suspended. Uh. I remember him
- 6:06Speaker 2: coming out of Cleveland. Just never really contributed with the
- 6:09Speaker 2: Jets for a while and he's now with Dallas. Yeah,
- 6:13Speaker 2: Greg Cose I loved him. He just goes my TV
- 6:17Speaker 2: to know about off the field stuff. But look, they're
- 6:19Speaker 2: they're deep there. Now do they yes? Do they have
- 6:23Speaker 2: the size though that one gap penetrator? Uh? If you're
- 6:27Speaker 2: playing one gap are they going to have that guy?
- 6:29Speaker 2: It's just that's the question. But it's it's going to
- 6:33Speaker 2: be interesting to see what what Uh joe Ja Toya,
- 6:36Speaker 2: who Greg actually mentioned on our show last year of UCLA,
- 6:39Speaker 2: who's a big dude wide, He's a he's a run
- 6:42Speaker 2: he's a run guy. So we'll see. But they're kind
- 6:44Speaker 2: of a fascinating team because man, if they ever put
- 6:46Speaker 2: it together, look out. Yeah.
- 6:49Speaker 1: I mean I think that ideally if you're Christian Parker
- 6:53Speaker 1: and you can build that secondary up and that's your background.
- 6:57Speaker 1: You talked about having that upfront one gap penetrator. Really,
- 7:01Speaker 1: if they can get into good situations at him, that
- 7:03Speaker 1: should be Quentin Williams and oh Diggi Zua. Those guys
- 7:07Speaker 1: have good interior line burst and you're you're talking about
- 7:10Speaker 1: two guys you can rush the passer from the inside,
- 7:13Speaker 1: and we know that that's how the Eagles defense at
- 7:14Speaker 1: times has been built. Like those edges that the Cowboys
- 7:17Speaker 1: have are young. But you you really wanted to start
- 7:20Speaker 1: with o'diggie Zua and Quentin Williams.
- 7:24Speaker 2: Yeah, and Williams is wider. I mean, we'll see if
- 7:29Speaker 2: they're two a gap in or one gap, but whatever
- 7:30Speaker 2: the case may be, they've got plenty of down lineman.
- 7:35Speaker 2: Then the question is at edge though they have a
- 7:38Speaker 2: lot of them as a RockA who you mentioned James Houston.
- 7:43Speaker 2: Actually no, they don't have well, they would have a
- 7:45Speaker 2: lot of them, but they're not last seas, Nay too
- 7:46Speaker 2: many of them. But clown he's up. Fowlers up. Sam
- 7:50Speaker 2: Williams is up. Peyton Wims really didn't play for them.
- 7:52Speaker 2: He was hurt. He'd come back from a series of
- 7:56Speaker 2: injuries with New Orleans and he was hurt last season.
- 8:00Speaker 2: He missed most of the last season. You remember it
- 8:02Speaker 2: was a edge rusher sort of run sort of a
- 8:05Speaker 2: quasi edge rusher run defender of the University of Houston
- 8:10Speaker 2: super long, but she never really made it due to injury.
- 8:13Speaker 2: So they've got a lot of decisions to make linebacker.
- 8:16Speaker 2: And this is where this is where from if Christian Parker,
- 8:21Speaker 2: I'm absolutely politicking for Nikobe Dean. Coordinators love having their guys. Man.
- 8:26Speaker 2: When I say, guys who know the system that to
- 8:29Speaker 2: me and read blanket ship two smart players. You know, no,
- 8:33Speaker 2: you know they know what they're doing because what they're
- 8:35Speaker 2: doing there to do is teach, They explain, and don't forget.
- 8:39Speaker 2: The Cowboys miss badly, badly on on that inside backer
- 8:44Speaker 2: they got from Logan Wilson. He never really did anything.
- 8:48Speaker 2: I you know, I thought the Bengals were wrong. I
- 8:51Speaker 2: talking to someone with the Bengals that he just didn't
- 8:53Speaker 2: fit their new system with Al Golden last year. Apparently
- 8:55Speaker 2: he didn't meet it with Matt everfless because they never
- 8:58Speaker 2: he barely played him well.
- 9:00Speaker 1: It kind of reminded me of when the Eagles tried
- 9:03Speaker 1: to get Shack Well. They signed Shaq Leonard at the
- 9:06Speaker 1: end of the twenty twenty three season, hoping he would
- 9:08Speaker 1: be some kind of savior for them, when he was
- 9:11Speaker 1: clearly not the player that he was done. Yeah, he
- 9:14Speaker 1: was completely done. But if you remember, it cost the
- 9:17Speaker 1: Eagles Christian Ellis because they waived him after they brought
- 9:20Speaker 1: in Shack Leonard. Then the Patriots Patriots got him and
- 9:24Speaker 1: he's become a pretty good linebacker. Now a lot of
- 9:26Speaker 1: the Eagles are missing out on good off ball linebackers.
- 9:30Speaker 1: This has been like the best enough.
- 9:31Speaker 2: Yeah, you're right, Yeah they're good. But I wonder because
- 9:36Speaker 2: he was just a really good special teams player. I
- 9:38Speaker 2: wonder what would have happened because you saw t J.
- 9:40Speaker 2: Edwards what he did. He worked his way up from
- 9:42Speaker 2: being an undirected pH agent to a player. He's not
- 9:44Speaker 2: a modest free agent deal, but still sign for six
- 9:47Speaker 2: million or more a year with the Bears. You just
- 9:50Speaker 2: wonder because he came, he became a player. Christian Ellis
- 9:53Speaker 2: with the Patriots, He's got a decent contract. They have
- 9:56Speaker 2: a lot of it inside backers in their thirty four front.
- 9:58Speaker 2: But uh, overall, Dallas, you just you just you have
- 10:04Speaker 2: no idea what you're going to get. Ken the Kenth
- 10:06Speaker 2: Maury tray didn't really work out all that well. He's
- 10:08Speaker 2: a guy never really made it as a former first
- 10:09Speaker 2: round pick. Donovan Wilson's up. We'll talk more about that
- 10:13Speaker 2: the roster when we get We'll do a free agency
- 10:15Speaker 2: intel nugget stuff for them as we get closer to
- 10:19Speaker 2: free agency. But they have so many questions, man, so
- 10:21Speaker 2: many questions. But they really rely on defense. Other than Pickens,
- 10:24Speaker 2: who should get the tag. I'd be stunned if they
- 10:26Speaker 2: got reached a deal before free agency started, right, but
- 10:30Speaker 2: I'm sure he'll get tagged.
- 10:32Speaker 1: You can call me neurotic, but I was a little
- 10:34Speaker 1: nervous when the revolution started for people sending money electronically,

- 12:58Speaker 1: The question I have is, you know the Cowboys seven
- 13:00Speaker 1: to nine and one last year, Adam seven to ten
- 13:02Speaker 1: the year before they've had. They had a really good
- 13:05Speaker 1: offense last year scored the second most points in the NFL,
- 13:08Speaker 1: and they're gonna bring a lot of those guys, if
- 13:09Speaker 1: not all of them back. So if Christian Parker's influence
- 13:13Speaker 1: can make Dallas' defense plus whatever moves they make, I
- 13:17Speaker 1: don't know, twenty percent better than last year, is this
- 13:20Speaker 1: all of a sudden now looking more like a nine
- 13:22Speaker 1: to a ten win team, if not more? Because really,
- 13:25Speaker 1: offensively they're very good.
- 13:27Speaker 2: I know, I mean Pickens lamb Ferguson, Javata Williams is up.
- 13:35Speaker 2: He had an incredible season. Good for him after the
- 13:38Speaker 2: multi l liguement knee injury suffered in the second season
- 13:40Speaker 2: with Denver, their line has got some issues. Turn Steele
- 13:46Speaker 2: has been up and down. Guitan is not comfortable left tackle.
- 13:49Speaker 2: He's missed some time. There are questions whether Tyler Book
- 13:53Speaker 2: will be a high level right guard. Tyler Smith has
- 13:58Speaker 2: been a great story outlined him many times. He's gonna
- 14:00Speaker 2: have to be a left tackle, moved to guard. No
- 14:02Speaker 2: one thought he could play it well he did, apparently
- 14:05Speaker 2: instead of their coaches. He's been great. But by the way,
- 14:07Speaker 2: that's what Trevor Keagan is. That's right.
- 14:10Speaker 1: And you know they have a very good run game
- 14:13Speaker 1: guy because Schottenheimer is their their play caller. But Clayton
- 14:16Speaker 1: Adams is a guy that we talked about that the
- 14:18Speaker 1: Eagles were hoping to talk to. Didn't happen. They like him.
- 14:22Speaker 1: I mean, their run game was fantastic. I mean, who
- 14:24Speaker 1: would have thought Jevonte Williams last year was going to
- 14:27Speaker 1: resurrect his career to the way that he that he did,
- 14:30Speaker 1: And it kind of makes me feel like, yes, that
- 14:33Speaker 1: was good for Javonte Williams. But I feel like even
- 14:35Speaker 1: if they got another running back was different. Next year,
- 14:37Speaker 1: They're probably gonna have a pretty good run game because
- 14:40Speaker 1: their line is a good old line for run blocking,
- 14:42Speaker 1: especially and you know the quarterback's good I mean, they
- 14:45Speaker 1: have a good offense, the play caller is good. So
- 14:47Speaker 1: this is a team that if this defensive staff can click,
- 14:51Speaker 1: and I think that's a big part of it. One
- 14:52Speaker 1: thing we said about Vic Fangio when he came to
- 14:54Speaker 1: Philadelphia Adam is that he was able to get the
- 14:57Speaker 1: guys that already worked under him, So the from the
- 15:01Speaker 1: top could get trickled down to the players very easily.
- 15:04Speaker 1: Because most of most of the position coaches worked under Vic,
- 15:07Speaker 1: they knew this defense. That might be a little bit
- 15:09Speaker 1: of a challenge for Christian. I mean, I've looked at
- 15:11Speaker 1: the new defensive staff. I don't know how many of
- 15:14Speaker 1: these guys he's come across or many. Yeah, yeah, that
- 15:18Speaker 1: might be a little difficult for him.
- 15:19Speaker 2: Not many that he now. Marcus Dixon you might remember who.
- 15:25Speaker 2: He's a player for the Cowboys, and you know he's
- 15:27Speaker 2: moved around, been a line coach in college and with
- 15:30Speaker 2: with with the Vikings. But it's now the question, you know,
- 15:35Speaker 2: I don't so much worry about. Well, it depends on
- 15:37Speaker 2: how they're going to play their front. But Marcus Dixon's
- 15:40Speaker 2: a gosh. I remember covering him for the draft many
- 15:42Speaker 2: years ago. But it's just a matter of what kind
- 15:46Speaker 2: of how they're going to deploy, where they're going to
- 15:48Speaker 2: two gap or one gap is it? Because we've said
- 15:52Speaker 2: this before, not every fancier disciple runs exactly the same,
- 15:54Speaker 2: which is pretty much for any defensive No one runs
- 15:57Speaker 2: exactly because the master is vic right, Bulls or you know,
- 16:01Speaker 2: depending on who you want. Gannon, who though he never
- 16:03Speaker 2: colled for him, Uh, he's running it because that's what
- 16:06Speaker 2: the Eagles wanted to do and he did a good job.
- 16:08Speaker 2: I know people hate him, but that's you know, that
- 16:11Speaker 2: should be a thirty for thirty. They hate for Gannon,
- 16:14Speaker 2: but he'll be boy, he'll be in Green Bay those
- 16:18Speaker 2: same conference do they play Do they play Green Bay
- 16:20Speaker 2: the season? It's like they play them every season.
- 16:22Speaker 1: I dig the season they don't play.
- 16:24Speaker 2: Uh yeah, okay, but anyway, it's uh, it's gonna be different, man,
- 16:31Speaker 2: and I honestly, I don't think it'll take more than
- 16:33Speaker 2: four or five games. You know, if they're going to
- 16:34Speaker 2: be disciplined at all, you're just so many big plays.
- 16:39Speaker 2: But they cut digs that that was a disaster. Yep,
- 16:43Speaker 2: we don't need to go into all that stuff. It's
- 16:45Speaker 2: just ridiculous. That was crazy and just oh, they've gotten
- 16:50Speaker 2: good safety play. The corner play has been so up
- 16:52Speaker 2: and down. Dron Bland big plays, gives up big plays.
- 16:56Speaker 2: They love accumulating edge rushers, but they don't have that
- 16:59Speaker 2: a level russure show Eagles. I'm sure we'll have no
- 17:02Speaker 2: problem against them if they're aggressive, but we have to
- 17:05Speaker 2: see what Eagles offense the scheme looks like.
- 17:07Speaker 1: Yeah, and then the last thing it would be, you know,
- 17:09Speaker 1: Christian working under Vic to me would be does he
- 17:12Speaker 1: have the same sense of understanding how to break down
- 17:18Speaker 1: a protection, when to use the right sim pressure, how
- 17:21Speaker 1: to feel because Vic's so good.
- 17:23Speaker 2: At being able to do that.
- 17:24Speaker 1: Was still just rushing for I mean, he'll only rush
- 17:26Speaker 1: for most of the time and he'll figure out away right,
- 17:29Speaker 1: and he'll still figure out a way. Sometimes you get
- 17:31Speaker 1: a free rusher to the quarterback, you know, like Wink
- 17:34Speaker 1: Martindale is really good at that. But Wink would blitz
- 17:36Speaker 1: a lot.
- 17:39Speaker 2: I would say, Wink and Greg Williams Worthy two guys
- 17:43Speaker 2: out of forty three and Wink of thirty four that
- 17:46Speaker 2: I hate to say blitz just to blitz, but you
- 17:49Speaker 2: knew it was coming, but it was how he would
- 17:52Speaker 2: break you down, and then Wink sort of got found
- 17:54Speaker 2: out and him and day Ball had their issues. So
- 17:57Speaker 2: that's that's another mini thirty for thirty short. That was bizarre.

- 20:15Speaker 1: Sir, never a dull moment. So we will see anything
- 20:18Speaker 1: else that strikes you. Offensive Fence Special teams. I mean,
- 20:21Speaker 1: they didn't have as much change as the Giants per se.
- 20:24Speaker 2: You know, they're almost the entire staff is new. Yeah,
- 20:27Speaker 2: that's true.
- 20:28Speaker 1: That is true.
- 20:29Speaker 2: It's just how it's going to come together. And learning
- 20:31Speaker 2: fangro is not easy. But right, Look when you have
- 20:34Speaker 2: the real McCoy, yeah, sure, it's a lot easier when
- 20:37Speaker 2: you want to done his way. Well his way was
- 20:40Speaker 2: done in your one and they won Super Bowl with.
- 20:41Speaker 1: It, right, which is kind of like you always say,
- 20:44Speaker 1: you always say this, Right, you can have the Fangio template.
- 20:47Speaker 1: We've seen that before here with gann in or Deci
- 20:50Speaker 1: who ran their versions of Fangio. But if you don't
- 20:54Speaker 1: have Fangio, then it's a big question mark. But at
- 20:57Speaker 1: least Parker coach like Gannon never coached.
- 20:59Speaker 2: Under Fangio, right, that was my point.
- 21:01Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, but he did it.
- 21:03Speaker 2: Look, you say whatever you want about the way it ended,
- 21:06Speaker 2: you know about the the Cardinals contacting legally, should have
- 21:09Speaker 2: taken the call. Whatever, people still want to blame him somehow,
- 21:12Speaker 2: he wasted time thinking about whatever excuse people want to
- 21:15Speaker 2: make or hold up against him. That's fine. The guy
- 21:17Speaker 2: did a bang up job. Tickle it like early on,
- 21:21Speaker 2: a little bit a little uh, a little questionable in
- 21:24Speaker 2: your one certainly, but year two was magnificent.
- 21:28Speaker 1: Absolutely, all right. Cool. That is a look at the
- 21:30Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys, their changes in their coaching staff, and it's
- 21:33Speaker 1: all obviously for them on defense. And we'll see, uh,
- 21:37Speaker 1: we'll do obviously later in the in the summer with
- 21:39Speaker 1: Greg Cosel we do the whole team breakdown from a
- 21:42Speaker 1: personnel standpoint, but this was just about coaching philosophy and
- 21:45Speaker 1: what the Eagles can expect from their most fierce Division
- 21:48Speaker 1: rivals from a coaching and philosophical standpoint as we hear
- 21:52Speaker 1: in the off season. All right, everybody, that'll do it
