  Speaker 1: buddy Josh Houster from Philadelphia soccernow dot com, filling in
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: for the guys as he has on so many weeks
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: this Eagle season. I appreciate you so much, my friend.
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: And by the way, I love your alshon, Jeffrey Jersey.
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: I love it. One of my favorite Eagles receivers of
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: all time.
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: I threatened last time that I was I was gonna
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: wear it as I talked about my beloved South Carolina Gamecocks,
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: you know, as I sat down on my sofa to
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: watch today yes, I said to myself, you know what,
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: I'm sure when the schedule release came out, they sat
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: around the table and they said, it's early January, the
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: last week of the season. Yeah, let's put Commanders Eagles
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: up against each other with the gusts of wind, the
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: chili weather.
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: For Josh Johnson.
• 1:45
  Speaker 4: And patar mckatie, Yes, yes, because they were like, that
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: is ratings right there, you know, I, you know, I
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: really don't think we're gonna get worked up over this one.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: I don't think we are either. But he actually raise
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: a nice point there with the schedule makers of the NFL,
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: these type of games would be good for the seventeenth
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: week of the season, not the eighteenth week. How many
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: how many backups did we see throughout the NFL A
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: decent amount, some we did, some we didn't. But still
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: this is one of those games where, yeah, you had
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: two NFC, two teams in the NFC Championship Game last
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: year going up against each other, but if it was
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: you know, I don't know, I don't understand why the
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: schedule makers do this, but you're right, we got to
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: see Josh Johnson against Tanner McKee and WOA folks let's
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: talk about some of this stuff. In this game, boy,
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: Eagles are wearing their Kelly Green jerseys. That was nice
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: to see. Again, Tanner McKey is starting at quarterback. A
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: ton of the starters on offense sitting out this game,
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: not DeVante Smith coming into this week needing forty four
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: yards to get one thousand yards on the season, so
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: he was starting. I believe Tyler Steen was also starting
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: at right guard for part of the game. We also
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: saw on defense, we saw Jordan Davis out there, Nolan Smith,
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: Jaylex Hunt was out there. He was making plays throughout
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: the game. He actually had an interception which was fantastic.
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: And I gotta say, you know, before we get into
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: the Tanner McKee stuff in the Eagles quarterback situation and
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: certain narratives that we've heard throughout the year, I just
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: want to give some major props to Devonte Smith forgetting
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: to one thousand yards on the season here, and he
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: was only out there for a quarter. It was actually
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: one thousand and eight yards to be exact, So right
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: towards the end of the first quarter is when he
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: nailed that. At that point, he had three catches for
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: fifty two yards as long as twenty seven yards and
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: the Eagles now have yet again two one thousand yard
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: receivers with AJ Brown again Davante Smith. I love the
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: fact that this Eagles wide receiver core is what it
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: is with these two an and I just wanted to
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: say like that, that was nice to see that we
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: can actually look forward to something in this game. Is
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: somebody who I love and DeVante's Smith. I wears jersey
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: a lot doing our postgame shows here and throughout the week,
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: wears jersey. That was really nice to see, Josh, I
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: could actually look forward to that, Yeah.
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: And Jeff, I mean there were gonna be some starters
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: that played just because numbers. Game like otherwise, unless you're
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: going to place a bunch of players on IR, which
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: then you can't activate for a while, you're gonna have
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: some starters in there. And they were yanked pretty quick
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: after that. I mean basically after the first quarter. It
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: literally was second and third string. Yes, And normally we
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: do a theme, like what you know, what kind of
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: theme are we thinking about it? For me, as I
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: look at this game, there's one theme and it is
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: questions answered.
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: Ooh, I like a lot of questions answered. I I
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: had touched you at the start.
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: I was hoping for like five hundred yards from Tanner
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: McKey just because I I wanted to live for sports
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: radio for a week, right, Like I just wanted to
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: hear the controversy, which to me is absurd. What's the
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: biggest I'm going to bring Dak Prescott in on this?
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: What's the biggest flaw of Dak Prescott that we talk
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: about all the time.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: You just can't get it done, and in key moments
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: of the games can't get it.
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: You can't get it done.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: He folds halfway, you know, through December through January.
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: Jaimen Hurts is the opposite.
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: So to even entertain a conversation about, you know, let's
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: bench the Super Bowl.
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: MVP for Tanner McKee was just ridiculous.
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: The second question that was answered for me, I don't
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: think we have a Jalen Hurts problem. We definitively have
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: a Kevin Petoolo problem. It is it is. I'll say
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: the same thing I said last week. It's like they
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: decide the night before what they're going to run. It
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: doesn't matter what the conditions are, it doesn't matter anything.
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: They're just gonna do this year. It's gonna be scripted
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: and and that's it.
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: I'm not.
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: I'm not like a huge tang big speed guy, right.
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: I'm not saying that we need to start him over Saquon.
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: But when someone is averaging like five yards of carry
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: and you have your backup quarterback in and you're running
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: with second and strength third string players, yep, run run
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: the ball. I'm not And Jeff you know this. I'm
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: not a big run the ball guy that got whatever's working. Right,
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: Like in the playoffs, I want the ball and Jalen
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: hurts his hands because he's clutch. I can trust him,
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: so I don't want them running the ball a time.
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: But in this case, like what you have third and
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: fourth down, third and one, fourth and one, imagine that
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: averaging five yards of carry.
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: Yes, we're gonna throw it twice. Yes, I just I don't.
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: I need Jalen Hurts to start calling more audibles like
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: I can't.
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: Today, sometimes not allowing him to though. That's the thing,
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: like sometimes they are not based on the play that
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: is called and coming late. By the way the calls
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: are coming in late, then Jalen is unable to audible.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: And sometimes he's just not allowed because the coaching staff
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: tells him he's not allowed.
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And for me, the biggest indictment on this game
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: is on two individuals. Tanner McKee, those hopes and dreams
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: of like a second round pick for him, just win
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: bye bye today.
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah.
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: And the second individual is Kevin Bittulo. Like every coordinator
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: will put a good driver or two or three together
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: a game like it's a blind and squirrel finds a nut, right,
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: like it's going to happen. So if they happen to
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: be three in a row, great, Yeah, but the rest
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: of the game was horrible, horrible play calling. The third
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: answer to me was this is why I wanted them
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: to rest players. And I'm okay with the three seed
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: because for me, because that was the debate all this week, Right,
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: do you start them to go for the two? If
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: you're you're going to have to face San Francisco or
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: Los Angeles, I would rather face them first. If I'm
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: going to have to beat either one of them to
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: move on, I would rather face them first with a
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: healthy roster, don't I don't want to play them the
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: second Week's a good point after playing the Packers, after
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: you've got potentially Injers and let's talk about the fact that,
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: like tonight they not have rested starters. We probably lose
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: Dallas got it for next week because I think it
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: was Calcaterra with the hip tackle.
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: He's he's done so like.
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know that officially, but it didn't
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: look good and he's back in the locker room. Right.
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: They have offensive linemen that are hurt, so like, and
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: if you're continuing with the starters, starting offensive line, who's
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: already hurt and then offensive linemen got hurt today, Like,
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: just give me the healthy team facing probably your tougher
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: competition in the first round, and then I'll move on.
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I can't believe you just mentioned in folks, Josh
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: and I didn't really talk about a lot of this
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: before we got before we hit the record button. The
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: bizarre play call life. We did it. We did it.
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: We had a good therapy session prior to hing the cord,
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: but we really, I mean, the play calling is still ridiculous,
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: even even with these backups, and of course the play
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: calling is going to be the play calling. It's ridiculous.
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: It's bizarre. As always, there are so many question marks
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: and we're always so baffled. And the fact, especially in
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: the second quarter when the Eagles were right near the
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: goal line. You mentioned it, there was a third and one,
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: a then subsequent fourth and one, two pass plays. Meanwhile,
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: Tank Bigsby was averaging at that point five yards per carry.
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: He was averaging five yards per carry. And that's what
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: they did. That's what Kevin Petullo did. But what's interesting
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: is they come out in the second half and our
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: friend of the pod heard. Her name is April Hershey,
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: and April sometimes gets in touch with us some communicate
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: from her. She was happy about what Kevin Petulo was
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: doing in the third quarter. He said, did some alien
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: body snatcher stuff happen with Kevin Patullo tonight? Because I'm
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: seeing some effective and good offensive play calls, especially in
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: this third quarter. Was the secret that he needed to
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: call only for non starters. It's like, you know what,
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: There were some decent plays, but at the end of
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: the day, at the end of the day, we also
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: then saw in the fourth quarter a ton a ton
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: of play calls where you didn't have wide open receivers. Yes,
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: Tanner McKee did miss some receivers. He overthrew some receivers,
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: as well. Why because he's not Jalen Hurts and he's
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: not the greatest quarterback in the world, and there's no
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: way he should be starting over Jalen Herds. But because
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: the play calling was bad. There were receivers that just
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: were not open. And we've seen it week after week
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: after week in game and in key situations, especially when
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: they needed to get down the field. It's enraging. Yet
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: this team is still eleven and six and they're the
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: number three seed heading into this playoff picture here, it
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: really is astonishing to me. I want to move on
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: to the defensive side of the ball. Okay, okaycause we
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: got to talk about this as well before we get
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: to our break. I mean, the Eagles backup secondary, especially
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: the cornerback situation. Josh, it's not good. It's not good
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: at all. Yes, pass, I mean horrendous. It is horrendous, folks.
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: Pass interference calls in the end zone that helped out
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: the Commanders. If it wasn't for Jacoreyan Bennett, the Commanders
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: likely would not have won this game. In my opinion,
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: we saw that passing. Those pass interference calls on long
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: pass plays by the Commanders time and time again, Jakorean Bennett,
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: who again had a horrendous game. I believe three penalties.
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: He just loves pass interference. Cannot turn his head around
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: to see where the ball is to save his life.
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: Had to key pass interference penalty in second quarter allowed
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: the Commanders to score from the one yard line. He
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: had another in the fourth quarter that led to the
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: same exact outcome and touchdown. But you know, it's interesting
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: if you look at that trade that was in August
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: of just this past year, August twenty, twenty five year
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: Eagles traded Thomas Booker, the fourth defensive tackle who ended
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: up having a pretty good year and a pretty stable
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: role with the Las Vegas Raiders this season. That's of
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: the Eagles gave up for Jacoreyan Bennett. And look, I
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: know how he was trying to get some depth behind
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: the starters. But boy, this trade, I don't think it's
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: necessarily going to be working out for the Philadelphia Eagles.
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: I don't think Jakorian Bennett's probably going to be on
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: this roster next season. And god forbid anything happens to
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: a Dori Jackson or Quinnon Mitchell. My my goodness. I mean,
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: the these secondary and cornerbacks are horrendous on this team.
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: I'm already I'm already like looking forward to this part
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: of the offseason.
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: Josh, I think you know, Jeff, a couple of thoughts here.
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: I think that one this isn't this wasn't just a
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: Bennett problem. Today, none of the defensive backs that are
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: backups know how to turn their head and face the ball.
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: I don't want to hear any complaints from Eagles fans
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: about any of those past interference penalties. None of the
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: defensive backs turns their heads. Do not turn your head right,
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: it's past interference, like I don't and.
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: The guy they're all over them.
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: So that's the first thing. The second thing is, I
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: want to go back to weeks four and five.
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: I want to go back to where everybody was complaining
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: about the fact that Dori Jackson is getting playing time.
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: What is Vic Fangio doing. We have we have Bennett,
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: we have Ringo, we have all of these options.
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: Oh, Jackson's a bomb, Like Jackson was not playing well right, right,
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: but tonight showed you right. In the same amount of
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: time that O Dori Jackson had is the same amount
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: of time that Ringo has had That Bennett has had
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: and here we find ourselves. This is why, Like this
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: is what Vic Fangio was seeing during practice.
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: So sometimes fans, let's trust.
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: The people that are watching football every day of the
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: actual players, and not just on Sundays, right right, Like
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: I think there's a number of lessons.
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: Except learn from except for Petula.
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: Wow, that's a whole separate.
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: Yes, I know what you're saying.
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: And like I brought up a point last week because
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: sometimes we need to let draft picks kind of take
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: their time. Like remember how upset people were about jaylex Sun.
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: I'll bring it up again, and now all of a sudden,
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: he's everybody's favorite player on the defense, right like it
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: Sometimes things need time. Yes, sometimes players make immediate impacts
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: Cooper dejen Quenya Mitchell like, but it's that I would
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: view that more as the exception than the rule, right right.
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: Like even Caleb Williams, everybody was calling him a bum
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: last year. I know we didn't do much today, but
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: he he's the second highest passer in Bear's history. Now
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: because of coaching. I think that we forget how important
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: coaching is. Like there was a picture I saw today
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: of Sam Darnold and Baker Mayfield on the Panthers, who
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: both are no longer there where. You know, think of
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: how situations could have changed for Carolina had they have
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: gone and kept those with a different coach.
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: Anyway, absolute a whole separate conversation.
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: They just I think it was really highlighted by how
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: bad the defensive backs backups are just across the board,
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: Like with the exception of Tang Bigsby, which I'm going
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: to remove from this, the Eagles do not have the
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: same level of depth that they had last year, and
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: if these were last year's roster, I think they probably
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: win today. Shout out to Dan Quinn and Cliff Kingsbury
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: for Washington for not just calling it deep bomb every play, yeah,
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: and just racking up the score. I don't know why
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: you want it right unless you were trying to not
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: win the game. But it was really something to watch
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: a thirty nine year old. There's not many quarterbacks in
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: the NFL that are older than I am to watch
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: a thirty nine year old run the ball untouched into
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: the end zone. But that was really I just kind
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: of sat there and I was like, I.
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: Have no idea what Ringo was watching. I don't know
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: what Ringo was doing on that play. He was just
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: I don't know what we thought was actually going to
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: try to tackle Johnson. I have no idea. I have
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: no idea.
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: Yes, you or I could have scored on that play, right, yes.
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: Yes, absolutely, you got Khelle Ringo covering you, you can
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: score all right? Oh jeez, well I will say this too,
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: you know there. Look, the backups were in but you
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: mentioned Tank Bigsby and I want to mention him again.
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: He really is a fantastic running back and we saw
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: that today. I mean for some teams he could actually
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: be a starting running back. There are teams in the
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: in this league that would absolutely want him as a
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: starting running back. But you saw an offensive line that
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: certainly struggled the backups. We taw you know, folks, whether
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: it's online on Twitter, whatever, social platforms, everybody seeing how
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: terrible the offensive line played. But man, Tank Bigsby being
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: able to do what he did on the ground. Seriously,
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: the fact that he was able to get seventy five
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: yards on sixteen carries. He averaged four point seven yards
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: per carry one touchdown. Oh and by the way, he
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: also had one catch for thirty one yards in the game.
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: As well. What's that what he had on that one
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: hundred and eight yards? I don't know.
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: I can't imagine.
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: Yes, well over one hundred yards. There is something to
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: be said for poor offensive line play, but the productivity
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: that we saw from Tank Bigsby, his talent and what
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: he's able to do with his cuts, what he is
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: able to do in terms of just seeing the field
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: in front of him. He is a guy you keep
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: on the team obviously, is your second running back heading
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: into next season, and mister will Shipley, I think we
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: could probably say bye to him out the door. This
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: is your time, man, this is your time, Josh. That
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: was my setup for Will Shipley, one of your favorites.
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: So I will say this quickly about Tag Big Speed.
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: Do you remember when they required him, acquired him, how
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: upset people got? Yes, right, you're not playing, he's such
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: a waste. Yeah, friends, just patience, right, you just gotta
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: let things play out. You gave up like a MiG
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: or a late round pick for him. It's not going
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: to kill you. Like it's not. People were treating it
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: like they gave up their first round pick for a
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: guy that's not really playing anyway. Will Shipley, I need
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: Howie Roseman to become a magician and just wave a
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: wand and just I talked about this beforehand, the fact
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: that I had to watch Kim Law tackle in the
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: open field Shipley. For those of you who don't know,
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: kiin Law went to South Carolina. They mentioned it on
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: the broadcast night. Who was unable to do that at
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: South Carolina and led to Will Shipley just running all
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: over South Carolina was probably.
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: The most infuriating thing.
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna be far more calmless time because I don't
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: feel like this postgame warrants being really upset. But Will Shipley,
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: I swear to you, if you do a signing, I'm
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: going to show up. I may actually buy a Clemson
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: something and force you to sign.
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna bring one of my.
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: South South Carolina Yeah when everyone on my South Carolina things,
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: I'm going to force you to sign it, and I'm not.
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: Gonna leave until you sign it.
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: Yes, I have so many things that I would love
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: to say to him, but I'll just leave it at
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: he can be the number three running back somewhere else.
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: Absolutely be nice. Absolutely all right, Well, why don't we
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: take a break here, then we get back we'll do
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: some grades. These grades are gonna be fun.
• 20:02
  Speaker 3: I don't even know how we grade, Jeff, but sure,
• 20:04
  Speaker 3: let's do it.
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: Let's do it, man, let's do it. But beforehand, make
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: sure you like and subscribe to the PSD podcast show.
• 20:10

  Speaker 1: you would like and subscribe. Also shoot us off some
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: comments below about this Eagles game and what you thought
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: about the final final game of this regular season. All right,
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: let's take that break. We're gonna be back in just
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: a bit. All right, we are back again with our
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: good friend Josh Schuster from Philadelphia soccernow dot com. If
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: you're into the Philadelphia Union, they got a lot of
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: great stuff going on over there at Philadelphia soccernow dot com.
• 20:43
  Speaker 3: Let's see the website. Does the Union do not? They
• 20:46
  Speaker 3: do not have a lot of great stuff going They do.
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: Not, and and certainly we're gonna be getting into some
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: of that on the podcast this coming week. Folks, little teaser.
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: Try not tear worked up. I know, it's it's fine.
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: It's incredible. I'm gonna start.
• 21:01
  Speaker 3: Sounding like Ross from friends. It's fine.
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: It's fine anyway, right quarterback possession Tanner McKee. He went
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: twenty one of forty for two hundred and forty one yards.
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: He averaged six yards per attempt, one touchdown, one interception.
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: He was sacked three times in this game. He ended
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: with a rating of sixty eight point nine. Yes, we
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: can put to rest that Tanner McKee is going to
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: be the quarterback of the future for the Philadelphia Eagles.
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: I'm giving Tanner McKee a C minus this week. What
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: do you give him? Buddy?
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: You Tanner, if you just happened to come across this
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: and listen lesson Lesson number one.
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: Yes, when you are in the.
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: Red zone or right near to the red zone, throwing
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: into double coverage at the goal line is a really
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: bad idea.
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: So don't do that.
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: Other than that he missed some open guys, he was fine.
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: Kevin Pittulo, listen to me. And this goes with the
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: quarterback raid. Tanner McKee should not be throwing the ball
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: forty times. I don't care ye that it's the last
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: game of the season. He should not be throwing the
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: ball forty times. He's not auditioning for the quarterback job.
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: This isn't preseason thirty attempts is fine? Run the ball.
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: I give Tanner McKee. I'm going to give him a
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: C plus because I don't think he was put in
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: a good position today.
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: Okay, I agree with you too, I do. Yeah, not
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: a good position at all, And I don't think he
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: really he just played average. He was average average play
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: from the quarterback. But I look at this running back situation,
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: the running back Tank Bigsby. Will Shipley only had one
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: rush for two yards, but Tank biggs be averaging again
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: four point seven yards per rush on sixteen carries, seventy
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: five yards and a touchdown. I'm going to give Tank
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: Bigsby because Will Shipley shouldn't even matter in this Tank
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: Bigsby in the running back, the one running back. I'm
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: giving him an A minus this week? What do you
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: give him?
• 23:00
  Speaker 3: Oh? Ten gets an A plus? For me?
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: All right, I'm going to disagree with you. I don't
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: know how you cannot give him an A plus.
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: I'll give it territory. Yes, it's absolutely that a. You
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: know what, I'll give him an A plus. It's easy.
• 23:11
  Speaker 3: You're excellently will Shipley. You can get in.
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: I love it, and.
• 23:17
  Speaker 3: You'll probably drop that too, like past today anyway.
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: He did, he did being passive aggressive at all. Anyway,
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: he was targeted three times, caught two balls for eleven yards.
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: That was will Shipley for you there. All right, let's
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: move to the receivers, boy, receivers, you know, I I
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: you know, I don't know if you put Davonte Smith
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: in here. I mean, I guess you have to considering
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: he he was targeted four times, caught three balls for
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: fifty two yards. He averaged seventeen point three yards per reception.
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: He's over a thousand yards on the season. John Dotson
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: caught three balls for forty yards, Darius Cooper caught three
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: balls for thirty three yards. Bigsby with that one catch
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: for thirty one yards. As I mentioned earlier, Kylon Granson
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: he caught four balls for thirty yards, and Grant kal
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: Katara caught two balls for twenty one yards. Britain Covey
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: two for twenty as well. So you take a look
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: at the receivers. I mean, Tanner McKee was just you know,
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: getting the ball wherever he could. You know, I give
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: the receiving corps a B plus this week. What do
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: you give.
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: Him I'll give him the same, but I'll also say
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: what i'd like to see this offseason. I'd like to
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: see them move on from Dotson. I don't think he's
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: a great slot wide receiver. I think he's better on
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: the outside. I like Cooper. I think that he's he
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: would be a great slot wide receiver. He can block,
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: and you already have your number three offensive weapon and
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: resign Goddard. Yeah, he's your number three offensive weapon, and
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: so that's what I would like to see.
• 24:42
  Speaker 3: But I agree with your grade B plus.
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: All right, very good. Let's move to the offensive line.
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: They really were not all that great. They were pretty terrible.
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: If you saw in run blocking, pass protection, my gosh,
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: the pockets just continually continually collapsing on Tanner McKee and
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: Tanner subsequently not having a two too great of uh
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: success outside the pocket when the pocket would collapse. I'm
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: gonna give this offensive line. I'm gonna give him D minus.
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: What do you give him?
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: I backups too, you know what I mean. But still
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: it's it's the level of play that you saw on
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: the field, I think.
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: Jeff, I I would love to know what the pressure
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: rate was on Tanner McKee, today, I I would I
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: would say D D minus. Yeah, I'm trying to be generous.
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: This were the starters, it would be an F. So
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: I guess you are being nice.
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, let's move over to the defensive side of the ball.
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: You have the uh look you like I mentioned before
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: the break. You did see Jordan Davis, Jlex Hunt, you know,
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: BG was in there as well, Nolan Smith, you know
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: some some of the some of the key guys were there.
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: And there were zero sacks though, I mean Josh Johnson
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: was not sacked one time. There were only four quarterback hits.
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: It was not that great of a day from the
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: defensive line. I'm gonna give him a C minus. What
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: do you give them?
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: I'm actually gonna give him a D minus. Okay, because
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: you know, Jaelex Hunt got the interception. I also think
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: that they were just kind of told to put it
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: in cruise control today. I think they were told to
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: play and don't get injured. Yeah, and just I don't
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: know how much I can really take away from there
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: not really being much pressure.
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: Okay, all right, especially.
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: Given the last couple of weeks, Right like the last
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: couple of weeks, they've really.
• 26:31
  Speaker 3: Ramped it up. I don't know. I just yeah, I'll
• 26:35
  Speaker 3: give the B minus.
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: Okay. Look, and then I look at the linebacker situation
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: where you did have Jihah Campbell out there and Jeremiah
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: Trotter Junior. In fact, Jeremiah Trotter Junior had twelve total
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: tackles in this game. He led the team in tackles.
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: Jihat Campbell had ten led the team. And look Jeremiah Trotter.
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: Of those four quarterback hits, he had two of them.
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: He had one tackle for a loss as well. Linebackers
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: actually did pretty darn well. I think in this game,
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: I'm actually going to give them a B plus. What
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: do you give them?
• 27:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll give him a B plus.
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: I one one little nitpicky thing. If you make a
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: play on first and second down, don't celebrate like it's
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: the end of the game and then allow a guy
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: wide open in the back of the end zone that
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: was blown coverage by the linebackers. Trot's you know, celebrating there,
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: jumping around like guys, there's there's another down, and it
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: just it was a really bad book. Yeah, and I
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: think I think Trotter for me, I guess this was
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: another I said there's kind of two people. There was
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: an indictment on McKee and Petulo. I would actually add
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: a third with with Trot Junior, simply because I think
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: he was in a place where they were wondering about
• 27:50
  Speaker 2: keeping him on the roster next year. I think today
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: solidified his spot next year, that he can be at
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: at the bare minim a backup linebacker in the NFL.
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: Absolutely, Absolutely, I think that's a great point to make.
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: And if we look at the cornerback and secondary position,
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: I mean, straight up, F there's nothing more that you
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: can nothing more and nothing less that you can give
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: the secondary F for sure in this game.
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: It Yeah, I just make an attempt to look at
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: the ball, just f for failure to attempt to look
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: at the ball.
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: Yep, there you go. Yes, all right, Moving over to
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: special teams and coaching special teams, I mean they kind
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: of did what they were supposed to do today. Jake
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: Elliott made a thirty nine yard field goal, made both
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: of his extra points. He seems to be back on track,
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: which is good. Britton Covey returning punts still not looking
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: bad at all. I'll take his two punts or two
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: punt returns that he had average ten yards per punt.
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: I'll take that any day of the week. So I mean,
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna give the special teams they did what they
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: should do today. I'll give them a B plus.
• 28:58
  Speaker 3: What do you give them?
• 28:59
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna I'm gonna give him a bee. And the
• 29:02
  Speaker 2: only reason why go a little bit lower is the
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: one punt where Covey let it go over his head.
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, it was down.
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: I had to double check for the number because I
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: was like, you know who makes that move?
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you know who makes that move?
• 29:16
  Speaker 3: Is that Will Shipley out there? I was like, Wow,
• 29:18
  Speaker 3: that was.
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: But I think that goes to show the stark difference
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: between the beginning of the season when Will Shipley is,
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: you know, doing the returns and whomever else they had
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: back there, because they were trying all these different people
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: to now where it's Covey's job. It was so uncharacteristic.
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: I think we forgot that that was the beginning of
• 29:39
  Speaker 2: the season, like that one punt was the beginning of
• 29:42
  Speaker 2: the season for the Eagles special teams.
• 29:44
  Speaker 3: But yeah, I'd give him a bee.
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: Okay, all right, let's move the defensive coaching. Vic Fangio.
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: You know you made the point earlier, Josh, And let's
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: bring it back. You know, you gotta trust what the
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: coaches have seen throughout the year with regard to talent
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: of value, euation, And we obviously know why certain guys
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: just haven't gotten much playing time other than Week eighteen
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: here in the regular season. I mean, Vic Fango is
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: Vic Fangio. He's always going to get a high grade
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: for me. I mean I'll give I mean, I think
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: vic In himself as the coach defensive coaching, did everything
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: he needed to do to win this game. It wasn't
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: his fault that the talent just isn't what it is
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: and what it needed to be. So I'm gonna give
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: him a B plus this week. What do you give him?
• 30:31
  Speaker 3: I think that's my grade too, Jeffy.
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: The only complaint I really have is they played a
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: lot of prevent defense throughout the game. It was very
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: clear there wasn't really any pressure. They were playing way
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: off the receivers. Yeah, and I think we know the
• 30:50
  Speaker 2: reason why, because if they bombed it down the field,
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: it's gonna be past interference, right right, So I get it,
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: But like on a third and mid range third and
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: I really hate it, and One of the things I
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: love about VIC is that they don't play fifteen yards
• 31:05
  Speaker 2: off the ball. Yeah, today they kind of did, But yeah,
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: I give him a B plus.
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: It was very Jim schwartzish it was at times. At
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: times it was like a Jim Schwartzish type of defense.
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: I would agree, except the main difference was Schwartz was
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: doing it with starters, and I think Vic Fangio was
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: literally just trying to get sixty minutes of game in, right, right,
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: that's it.
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, Well, let's move over to the offensive
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: coaching and grade them. Kevin Patulo, Nick Sirianni, I'm gonn.
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna give these gentlemen a D plus. I just thought,
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: I think from an overall picture standpoint you mentioned earlier,
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: they really didn't put Tanner McKee in the best position
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: in this game. You're on the goal line, you're third
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: and one, and then fourth and one. Both of them
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: are pass plays instead of run plays when Tank Bigsby
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: is averaging five yards a carry at that point, just
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: bizarre stuff going on, bizarre play design still week eighteen,
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: for God's sake, I'd be I'm going to give them
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: a D plus, give them a D plus. What do
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: you give them?
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: I'm going to give him a D for me. Every
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: game every coach starts with the C. Right, I feel
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: like that's average. If you're backup quarterback with backups throws
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: forty passes, you get dropped a letter.
• 32:17
  Speaker 3: I don't.
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: I'm being generous because I feel obligated to. Since Ashley
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: took time to email in and ask us specifically something. Yes,
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry I can't get your name right. I'm sorry, April,
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: my sincere apologies.
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: I just I can't comprehend.
• 32:39
  Speaker 2: There were some things I liked, like screen passes can
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: actually work when they're thrown to speedy wide receivers, not
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: possession receivers. Right.
• 32:48
  Speaker 3: That was refreshing to see, But I feel like that's
• 32:52
  Speaker 3: a bare minimum. Like C grade. Dvante going downfield instead
• 32:58
  Speaker 3: of aj Brown.
• 32:59
  Speaker 2: I like that right now. Ag, I know what'sn't playing,
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: but he went downfield anyway. There were parks I liked
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: the forty passing.
• 33:08
  Speaker 3: Attempts for my lord, you get a anyway.
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: Well, folks, that's that's about it here again. Week eighteen.
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: Now in the books for this twenty twenty five, twenty
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: twenty six Philadelphia Eagles season. They lose to the Washington
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: Commanders twenty four to seventeen. The playoffs start next week.
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: Oh boy, oh boy, facing the forty nine ers, facing
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: the forty nine ers, man.
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: And they did not look good by the way they
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: We're going to take a little bit of time to
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: do previews here. They're one stretch where they went won
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: six games in a row. They played one team that
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: had more than five wins this season. Yeah, yeah, so,
• 33:52
  Speaker 2: I like, I don't know, I don't know how good
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: they are. I'm personally not a huge Rock Party guy.
• 34:02
  Speaker 2: I like Kyle Shanahan, and I think Kyle Shanahan helps
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: Purty out in a big way because they get the
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: ball out quick, which I do think is a problem
• 34:11
  Speaker 2: for this Eagles defense.
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, but here if the pressure, though, is coming,
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: and so much of the what's gonna hinge on the
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: Eagles winning this game, this first playoff game, is going
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: to be that pressure on Party because if he's not
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: able to get through his progressions and he does feel
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: any bit of a sense of pressure, he's gonna fold.
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: We see it time and time again. So much Saturday, Yeah, absolutely,
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: so much pressure is going to be put on this
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: Eagles defensive front and Vic Fangio to get this done.
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: We have seen this Eagles defense play extremely well down
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: the stretch. Here, the starters we have seen play well.
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: They are definitely going to need to show up and
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: then some to really rattle brock Purty. And if they do,
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: I think the Eagles do win the game. I mean,
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: we're gonna do some pregame analysis here our Opposition Territory Pod.
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: We didn't do one this past week. Is why were
• 35:02
