ITB: When Will Eagles ILB Nakobe Dean Return and What's His Role? · Inside the Birds: A Philadelphia Eagles Podcast

• 0:09
  Speaker 1: Inside, the Bird is back. What's going on everybody? It's
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: Jeff Moser, Adam Kaplan. We're in the middle of the week,
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: we're getting closer to this Eagles game against the Broncos,
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: which promises to be well, it should be a very
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: fun game. And we're still sort of reconciling the Eagles
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: and their win over the Bucks and some of the fallout.
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: And I will say this, Adam, four weeks through the season,
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: I would say the Eagles they've been bit in little
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: bunches by the injury bug, you know, like Goddar and
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: Lane Johnson and Nolan Smith. Of course, on ir they
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: are fortunate in my part, the way things have gone
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: around the NFL. I mean, you've seen some really star
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: players already out for the year, whether it's Tyreek Hill
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: right or Ceedee Lam's gonna be out for a while.
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: And there are players all around the league who are out.
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: And I would say the Eagle situation isn't dire compared
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: to some other but every week it just seems like
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: they got some key players who have some uncertainty about them.
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: You know, the Niners absolutely devastated by injury. Just it's terrible.
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: It's mostly yes, a cl but the second one in
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: his career, by the way. But Purdy's problems and this
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: is why when you look at builds, the Hurts is
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: solid build. I know he's had some knee issues shoulder,
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: but I want a guy who solidly built like Purty,
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: a small frame guy, and he's put some weight on
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: you worry about it. He had a tow injury which
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: is going to keep him out again, uh this week.
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: So they got the Ayuk situation. He won't be back
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: to well past mid season.
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: Right, Kittles out? What's that in Kittle? Kittle is also.
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: Kis George Brittles his nickname. It's not nice, but I
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: know some people have called him that great He might
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: be a Hall of Famer someday, but great player hurt
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: a lot. Yep. Uh. One of the reasons why they
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: trade Deo Samuel was his injury history. And they have
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: a number of players out this a lot of four
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: guys who are starters this week. We're not on injury
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: reserve for the Niners are out. So yeah, they have problems,
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: and honestly, now we'll get to the Kobe Dean situation,
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: which is really good news.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: Yep.
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: I mean Yeah, if you look at the Eagles ir
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: list now Van Sumaran it's too bad. We never really
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: got to see what he was going to do. But
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: it's not a major loss, as Johnny Wilson. Part of
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: the run game that but now that one sneaky underrated
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: a lot. Yeah, I agree for the run game. Nolan
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: Smith now is an I are that's not good? A
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: Conchrow is done for the season. Well, we'll get into
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: that and what that's going to look like for their
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: edge group. But yeah, no, you're right. They haven't had
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: a devastating oh my god, this guy's out for the season.
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: How they're going to get by? No, they haven't had that.
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean the Commander has had to play last
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: week against a Falcons team that I'm quite positive they're
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: better then. But backup quarterback, no, Terry McLaurin, Austin Eckler
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: out for the year. We already talked about in our
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: preseason kind of evaluation the NFC East about how the
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: Commanders could be good except that they're they're they're just
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: lacking in real playmakers. You know, mclaurin's a very good receiver,
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: but he's not like a Justin Jefferson and Deebo is
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: a nice addition, but it's not like having a j
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: Brown DeVante Smith.
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: Uh.
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: And then we talked about Eckler being important because of
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: his versatility, and as soon as they lost him, that
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: was a big part of their offense. So they've kind
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: of had to survive with and then lost Jay and
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: Daniels for for a little bit there. So yeah, the Eagles,
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: the good for them to get Nikobe back. Will talk
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: about that. I mean, he's in the practice window. We'll
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: discuss what that means, and then we'll go inside what
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: some of these injuries mean and give the early word
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: here on the Broncos injuries as well. I just want
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: to take this second, and I'm probably gonna do this
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: quite a bit, Adam and I will to remind people,
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: well a I want we want to apologize. We had
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: a sound issue with inside the Tape with Greg Cosel,
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: and so a lot of people left messages, but it
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: was a one time thing. We fixed that it should
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: be fine. And then the second thing is it's football season, people,
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: so that is prime time for us and primetime for
• 4:05

  Speaker 1: buck right on these live streams, we give a lot

  Speaker 1: of information, all right, So that I just wanted to
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: put out there again Patreon dot com slash Inside the Birds.
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: We had an awesome Asking Eagle with monthly out with
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: Todd Harriman's who had some really awesome stories. Now I know,
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: if you're just a mainstream listener, you get a snippet
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: of that. We put about a ten minute version of
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: that and ask Greg Cosel, so you guys get to
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: hear that. But it's just so much more expansive on Patreon.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: You get all the questions, you get to personally ask
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: these guys the questions yourself, and you get the full stories.
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: We don't put the good juicy story reason things like that,
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: like Todd had a really interesting to story that that's
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: only for the Patreot member.
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: That story. See, I've known Todd. I've known Todd since
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: he was drafted. You and I have known him for
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: a number of years, and there's some stuff and I'm like,
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: what it wasn't just a teal. It was so many
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: things I didn't know about him or I couldn't remember
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: like he had told us. I knew he had told
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: me this when I over the years that when he
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: was a player. I don't know what I I ran
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: into him the locker room and you look bigger? Well
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: I didn't three forty nine.
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he was big.
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: Holy bleep, And I don't know Walker Stele wanted him
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: to put weight on you out of your mind. I mean, geez,
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: that's that was a shocker when he said I'd never
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: heard that before, and I was like, I can't. I
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: know he's six six, but he wasn't that like he framed.
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: Didn't seem like he was that big to me. So anyway,
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: that's what that's what Want says. It was a great interview,
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: one of my top three favorite of any former Eagle.
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: It was pretty dawn great and uh he loved it.
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: He told he loved it. And and so he's doing
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: the show with Trey right that. What is it called?
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: You know, it's ah, it's something with the Vineyards. I
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: asked him to tell me Trey when he was on
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: the b CB show with us, and uh, he didn't
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: tell me the full name. So now I have to
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: there on ig Between then. I think it's called Between
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: the vine with Trey and Todd.
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, so it's real simple. They're on I G
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: that's where I saw it first. You just hit it,
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: so it's great.
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and they talked. They talked football and drink wine. Well,
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: I mean it's it's great. It's awesome.
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: I wish I liked wine, but I don't.
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: Sorry, good wine is good.
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: I don't know what's going with me. I don't care
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: because I just don't understand the fascination. I think every
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: coach that I know drinks wine. It's kind of awkward,
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: like when you go out with these people and okay,
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: I'll drink of beers that okay.
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: So you don't do the manche it's on a holiday.
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: No, that's called Jewish grape Jews for those of you
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: are not Jewish.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: Yes, exactly. So let's talk about the Eagles here. So
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: Nikobe Dean gets activated into the twenty one day window,
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: which means Adam the Eagles have twenty one days to
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: make a decision on him. I always feel like we
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: have to remind people of what the window is and
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: then what happens at the end of the window. So
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: why don't you take it from there? You always explain
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: things with better details.
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: So he's on reserve physically and able to perform. He
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: has a destination for return. So I called DFR. So
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: on Wednesday they activate him into that window. They have
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: twenty one days to make a decision. Everything we've heard
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: would suggests at some point within a twenty one days
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: he's going to come back. Let's assume he does. But
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: if he doesn't, let's say he had a setback. Right,
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: he's done for the season. Once he gets past twenty
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: one days, he can't play. If they don't activate him,
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: he remains on pup the rest of the season. He can't.
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: He can't come back, even through the playoffs. So I
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: just hope there's no setback. Is If not, he's going
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: to play. Now, let's move this along here. As we
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: told you in August, there's zero champs. He's a starter.
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: If Campbell's playing and playing, I mean playing, well, that's
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: just the way it works, folks. It's nothing personal against
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: na Kobe, who was phenomenal for the Patel attention injury,
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: and Vic doesn't for compliments around. He throws him around
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: like manhole covers. He said he was great because he
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: was great, Okay, great. The Kobe is like super elite smart. Uh.
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: He had to get out of his own way. If
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: you remember, it was that we were there at the
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: practice last year at the Link when it was probably
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: that was his biggest low as an ego. I think
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: he just struggled, but something snapped into his head and
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: he got progressively better and he became a stud. I
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: don't know if he would have been a Pro Bowl.
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: He should have been had he not gotten hurt. But
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: you never see the problem is you don't know for
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: the for the fans who don't follow them, and or
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: an all Pro, the media, the AP voters, I don't
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: know how much they know about certain players, but Eagle
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: fans know this God was an absolute stud and great dude.
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: He got over the size issue. The size issue has
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: nothing to do with his knee. You could suffered to
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: tell a tenant, anyone can, but it's a terrible injury.
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: We have the guys who do the sports Bros Med
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: podcast on to talk about that. When did we have
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: them on?
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: Right after he Aaron was nice enough to join us.
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: Aaron Borgman, right, former Eagles athletic trainer and chiefs athletic trainer,
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: joined us and he talked about that advancements have made
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: it not as catastrophic as he used to but it's
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: still considered the toughest one to come back from.
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: So so basically my senses just knowing where Campbell's at,
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: who's who's well ahead. I admitted I didn't think he'd
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: be this good. I just you know, he's relatively new
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: to inside backer. As Vic calls them inside backers. Edges
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: are edges. Backers are backers. There is no he doesn't
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: call Alb's in a thirty four front play a five
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: in front, but he doesn't call them linebackers. Calls them edges, right, So, uh,
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: he could be a rundown guy like That's they have
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: to see. What they have to get through here is Yes,
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: they have the medical reports from their training staff. They
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: know that he's looked good. They've known for a series
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: of weeks he's gonna be ready by week five to
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: start working his way back. But until you get him
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: into practice. You don't know what he can or can do.
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: You judge what he'll do when he's ready to play
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: based on the way he looks. But Campbell is a starter. Now,
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: this is one of my favorite things. People can some
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: fans I call him the kingson conflation. What does that mean? Oh,
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: if Dean's back, you can find a role for him,
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: and then Kimball could be an edge rusher. Folks, if
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: Zadarius Smith is starting what he should be. He played well,
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: Vic said, he plays well. You can't play twelve players
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: at the time, You can only play.
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: You realize that, right, you have to take somebody off
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: the field if you're putting somebody new on the field
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: and you're moving somebody into a position. So I do
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: think that maybe I think this is a long shot,
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: but maybe given Jylex Hunt, you know, if he's not
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: producing as a pass rusher and he's been okay, he's
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: he's fine right now, You're you're not changing anything, right,
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: But if you want to move bond number one, if
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: you want to move Campbell a little bit more to
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: edge and then and do put Nicobe in if you
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: feel like he's in shape and he's great, then maybe
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: I can see that a little bit, but not in
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: the way that people have asked, like, do you just
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: start na Kobe and move Campbell to edge? No, you
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: do not do that.
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: With an asterisk. No, I'm gonna take your point of
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: step further. I had something from another team who does
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: pro work tell me Philly should have Hunt as their
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: third guy. He didn't. He said, he's not there as
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: a pass rusher. This is fun coach of tape, this
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: is all they watch. They don't they don't get access
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: to egles practice tape, so they have no idea how
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: he practices, or they didn't see him in training camp
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: because they don't get access to that. So the guy
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: told me, he goes if they could just have a
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: third that you could bring them along slowly, more slowly,
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: and that could be on. Okay, now you can move
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: Campbell to edge. Now I won't roll that out quite Frankly,
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: Hant is not there yet, isn't it tright?
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: I also agree with that, But I think you also,
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: this would be a couple of weeks down the road, right,
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: and you're probably not far from Nolan Smith at that
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: point coming back and getting back into the action. So
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: I think we're both in agreement that there's only a
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: small percentage where you really see Nikobe getting his normal
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: full time off ball linebacker job back. It would have
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: to be a string a string events that entail something
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: going on at a different position. It has to happen.
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: And fanciers shot it down again, which is a fair
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: question by the media about him playing more edge now
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: and Greg's notes, I got to look at the number
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: because he charts at his guys at NFL Film's chart this.
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: I'll give it to you in a minute.
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: Well you look for that. I'm just gonna make an
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: additional point. You don't want to strength. You don't want
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: to weaken a position just to neutralize another position. And
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: what I mean is right now, the way Campbell is progressing,
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: I mean he made the biggest play one of You
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: could argue that his interception on Mayfield was the biggest
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: swing play in that game. Right to go took a
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: touchdown away. Okay, he's playing at a really high level
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: for a rookie and just in general player. So you
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: have two linebackers and Bond and Campbell who are playing
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: extraordinarily high level. So are what what are you gaining?
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: By moving Campbell somewhere else now to potentially but not,
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: you don't know, try to strengthen another area and neutralizing
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: what you have at linebacker. I don't think that that's
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: to me, It doesn't add up. You want to keep
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: this greatness that you have at this because you play
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: someone zone and this is a big and sim pressures
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: and blitzing linebackers are a part of what you do.
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: You just keep this tandem. They're playing out of their mind.
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: It's like you said, it sucks for Nikobe, But why
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: are you trying to mess with what's not for a brokenness?
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: Can Campbell is sitting at now? In Greg's notes, he says, quote,
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: continue to Campbell continue to play significant snaps, line up
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: on the ball on the edge, nineteen saths versus a Rams,
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: eighteen versus Bucks. Now understand sometimes he's an ad in
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: defender against the run most times. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: I mean you I'd have to ask garg okay, could
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: you may be hard for him to do that.
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: The point is they're not bringing another linebacker in. When
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: he does that, he just walks down from his nickel
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: linebacker spot and is an extra man on the offensive line.
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so yeah, so look and by the Josh Husche's
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: look good. I want we haven't talked about him enough.
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: He looks good.
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: It's fair. It's weird that they play him. It feels
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: like they think that they're getting the most out of
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: uch Ucha in the snaps that they're giving him. And
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: because they're also still trying to develop Jelex Hunt because
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: it almost seems like you would play uch more based
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: on and by the way inside the data with Sam
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: Finkle that comes out Friday, we really go into has
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: been playing well as Darius Smith playing really well, so
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: you'll you'll want to walk out real quick.
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: What does he now when he talked when Sam talks
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: to Darius Smith, what what is he measuring? What is
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: he what's the talk about?
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: His get off rate, his pressure rate? So interestingly, I
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: don't want to give away the show, but doesn't have
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: He does not have the best get off rate among
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: all the edge rushers, but his pressure rate is higher,
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: which means he's not just a speed guy like some
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: of these guys. You'll see the list of edge rushers,
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: some of them have way better get off, but they're
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: not causing pressures because maybe they're just getting off so fast,
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: but they're getting blocked after they get it. Get off
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: is just the time it takes for you to get
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: over the line of scrimmage. But the pressures that Zadarius
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: Smith is creating are at a really high percentage, a
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: very good percentage, and basically suggests that he should play
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: and Vick's comments match it up that he's probably gonna
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: play more as the weeks go on.
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: And the guy spoke with he gave me a breakdown
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: of kind of his thoughts and egos tape so far,
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: because this is the job. He egals are one of
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: his teams. Uh, he spoke very highly with Jomo's pressure
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: rate is really good, probably better than you think it is,
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: is he explained to me. Uh, he's aware of you know,
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: he knew. He kind of knew going in that Ojomo
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: would not be good against run. He's not with the
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: he said, by tape study, they're just their front. Sometimes
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: they get up field and they blow a play up
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: or they get close, and then sometimes they get out
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: of alignment, and that's something we'll talk. I was driving
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: on Monday and the guy was very nice to me,
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: and he read a lot of stuff and I didn't
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: I couldn't write it down driving, but he explained to
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: me what what he saw, and you know, I asked him.
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: I asked him at a bunch of players that came
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: to my mind. I didn't have a list because I
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: don't know he's going to talk with the guy. But
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: he spoke super highly of Josh Uche. He said he's
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: totally back, not well, totally back. He's not what he
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: once was. That's a little bit too strong, Yeah, but
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: he absolutely can play. He's been a nice surprise for
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: the Eagles on a bargain basement deal yep. Whereas Ojelari is, uh,
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: he's that's a lot of money that they're not it's
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: not money, it's around four million, but.
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: I mean for good not playing. I think that that's
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: a pretty significant amount of money.
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, right, well, no, nook. Devin White was over
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: five and then they had a negotiation with him so
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: that they pay him less than that so he can
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: play again the season. So but yeah, we'll talk about
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: that in another show kind of what whether notes we
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: get from people around the league. But I would say
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: this as we move along for this, ya, Kobe's going
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: to play. It's a great thing to have him, he's
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: a big time leader. Eagles didn't know they'd be drafting Campbell,
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: they didn't know that, had no idea that he would
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: drop as far as he did. That was certainly surprising. Yes,
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: he had some injury concerns, but he is so far
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: ahead of what anyone I've spoken to. I know you've
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: talked to people. No one thought he'd be this good.
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: And he's still got the great thing. He's got so
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: much room for growth. Hard to believe, but he does.
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah. And by the way, in case we didn't mention
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: this as part of the protocol, they don't have to
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: wait twenty one days.
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: He was playing this week.
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: He was listed as a limited participant in practice on Wednesday,
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: and we'll see what it means. But I would say
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: this because of the short turnaround for Thursday's game against
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: the Giants after, I think it would be hard for
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: him to not play against the Broncos but then be
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: ready to play against the Giants because they're not going
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: to be on the practice field in actual practices. There
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: are all going to be walked through days. So I
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: don't know that you're gonna be able to get your
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: conditioning and your practice under your legs. So to me,
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: it's more likely than not that he sees the twenty
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: one day window through and then they go from there.
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: Well, we'll learn more as we go along here. So
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: so that's with Nakobe a conquer's done for the season.
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: Towards triceps. Charlie HEWITTT Charlie Hewlett, I'm sorry, did you
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: say his agent saidie groin surgery core muscle. I believe
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: it was, so yeah, I'm sorry. Doctor Andrews would not
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: be happy if I called it sports tornia his cold
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: core surgery. And doctor Wallie Myers is he he's the
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: man for NFL players who's off at the Vinceara institutions
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: in the Naval Shipyard.
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: How about this, Listen, that guy has caused us Philadelphia
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: report Eagles. There are so many issues in the past,
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: unknowingly because you know, a lot of NFL players in
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: March after the season, when they get their you know,
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: body checked out and discover that they have core muscle
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: issues and or a sports rundia, they fly into Philly
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: to go see doctor Myers, and then fans inevitably see
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: these guys. I remember once it was Jonathan willmea with
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: somebody else and then they start saying hitting up the
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: reporters on social media or the Eagles signing this guy that,
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: oh god all the time, all the time. Yeah yeah,
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: but anyway, Yeah, so, so Hula has a groin or
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: a core muscle, I guess issue. So that's a tricky one, Adam,
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: because you know, we've seen this in the past. Guys
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: have come back too soon from it and then re
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: injured it. I don't know, like if it's different for
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: a long snapper where you're you're not putting as much
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: stress on your body.
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah, typically you're back within six weeks, but not everybody's
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: the same. So what do they do? The legendary cal
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: adamitas who was who were playing? These are the kind
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: of I love this stuff I put in my notes
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: because because I remember Clark Harris. He replaced Clark Harris.
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: Clark Harris's at one point in his career the highest
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: paid long snapper in NFL history. Yeah, and this Adam
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: minus kid, Yeah he was he was sign as an
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: undrector Freed and he replaced him in twenty twenty two.
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: And Col's no longer with the Bungles, He's now with
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: the Birds. And now the question will be when Hewlett's
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: cleared later in the season, what happens that could be
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: a long snapper controversy.
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: Ugh, boy, can you see like Nicobe Dean and Charlie
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: Hewlett sitting somewhere like getting a whalie pipped? Like? Oh man?
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: Now Andrew Andrew to check out a great note about
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: Adam Midas on Inside the Birds dot com. Not only
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: did he win the Patrick Manley Award, which is awarded
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: to the nation's best long snapper in college at pitt
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: but he grew his hair out and cut it for
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: Lots of Love, a nonprofit agency dedicated to helping children.
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: So nice, good, good on that. Get a good guy
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: as well.
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: Out of pit. Yeah, it's funny because the picture that's
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: out there m hm has him with long hair, so
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: before he did that, so good for him. And look, yeah,
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: that the guy was pretty accomplished. He's still pretty young,
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: you know long sabers. There's some long staffersuit who do
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: it through their early forties, so you just never know.
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: But and then uh, he's back APRS back Antoine Powell
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: Ryland is back the sixth rounder this year. They knock
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: on him from scouting standpoint, I'm not a great athlete,
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: put up really big numbers in college, but teams saw
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: he was too stiff, and I was I was wrong.
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: I thought someone would claim Off Waivers is a past rusher. Oops,
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: I was wrong. It didn't happen. But he is back
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: on Eagles practice squad with that opening, and uh, you know,
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: good for him. Huh APR is back and he was
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: with who was he? Who?
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: I didn't think he was with? Somebody?
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: Was he? I thought he? I? Yeah? They?
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah, no, he was.
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: He was cut off the practice Oh you know what
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: it was. I'm sorry. He had a bunch of workouts. Okay,
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: that's what it was. Yeah, practice squad. Yeah, he was
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: on the practice squad initially and then they cut him right,
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: and which surprised me. I'm like, jeezus, I don't know
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: man pass rusher numbers. There's a reason why I dropped
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: the six. Obviously, I guess thirty two teams are right
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: or thirty one were right. But you know what, good
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: good for him, Let him, let him steal in the
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: practice squad, let him develop, and goodness, the Eagles need
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: future pass rushers, that's for sure.
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: Now the Eagles still have one spot on their fifty
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: three manster correct.
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: Yes, yes, yes, it is. Andrew when we did the
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: BCB show said hey, they have it opening, let's see
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: what they do.
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: And now normally when they do that, I'm like, oh, well,
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: I know who's getting this spot because we used to
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: make the fun jokes about it about Kenyon Green. But
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: he's with the Ravens now, I believe, so they can't
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: bring they can't sign him too. Their fifty threes with
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: the Ravens.
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: Yep, I thought, yes, I think he did he yeah,
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: and then uh, Lance Dixon release off the practic squad.
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: They did work out up a young journeyman who's been
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: with Eagles before. Jacob Sykes was worked out on Wednesday.
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: I always find it funny when they work out a
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: guy who was with them all throughout. It's like, what
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: what did you think in the like the two weeks
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: since you played rosters tagle with him? He got he
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: gained like fifty pounds and.
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: It's a great it's a fair point. I find it hard.
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna I wonder if the NFL, because they do
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: this occasionally when teams turn in workouts, uh a past
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: four pm Easter and they go on the next day.
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: I'm just I'll check because I get you know, I
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: get access to all the workouts, so I'll see if
• 25:38
  Speaker 2: they because I think it's ridiculous that they wouldn't work
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: them out because right now they're punter and kicker. There
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: had to be pro bowlers. Okay, hmm, ringos was had
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: been a Pro Bowler coverage player, right yeah, they're special
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: teams right now they've had occasionally a guy will return
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: it well, but okay, you're not gonna be perfect. But
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: the punter and kicker absolutely stars. The two they've got
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: three blocks now crazy. It's Mike Klang for man. Fans
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: used to beat him up. They wanted this guy fired.
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: Why is he here? This guy stinks. Yeah, you gotta
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: let people grow as coaches, folks. You can't fire everybody
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: every week. They're not gonna have many coaches.
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: Left there you go. Then, amazingly, Kevin Batula is still
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: walking around the d.
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: I don't know how he wasn't fired us for four weeks.
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: Course then I gotta, I gotta. This is one of
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: my favorite all five time, all top five all time
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: complain from fans. Uh when the Eagles collapse totally in
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: twenty three, they went to Jeff Lowry. It's not l
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: U R I a Jeff Lorie to sell the football Eagles.
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: They had it with him. The team collaps, it's his fault.
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: They can't spell his last name.
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: I love it l a u R.
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: I love it when fans like you're talking about one
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: of the best owners of professional sports. It's look, he's
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: by the way without him, how he went and fired
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: five times? Yeah, offense, he's not the best GM in
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: the league. Give Jeffrey credit for back in Holle when
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: he could have fired him.
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: By the way, my mom accidentally calls him Jeffrey Laurier.
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: I'm like, you got the wrong owner, wrong owner of
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: the former Marlins owner, right, Jeffrey.
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: No nobod who called him that?
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: My mother Lauria?
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: Oh god, the ex boats and Marlin's owner. Yeah, right, right,
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: that's why.
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: She is, Yes, exactly. All right, let's get into some
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: Eagles injury updates before that quick word from our great sponsors. Hey,
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: you know that one guy in the group chat who
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: hit a five leg parlay week one and he wouldn't
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: shut up about it for the rest of the season.
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: Sounds like Kaplan, right, Yeah, yeah, it could be him.
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: It could be you, and we would all want to
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: be you. My Bookie makes it stupid easy to get
• 27:49

• 29:44
  Speaker 1: So this Dallas Scoddard thing man, he keeps kind of
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: hurting himself and popping up. You know, I know he was.
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: I believe he was out of practice Wednesday, right, did
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: not practice?
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: Yes, so he was re added to the injury board.
• 29:56
  Speaker 2: So he was removed last week and then now we
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: don't know if it's the same knee. We're not sure,
• 30:03
  Speaker 2: but it's a it's a knee issue. He didn't practice Wednesday.
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: We'll see what happens today. Mm hmm.
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: Boy.
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: If he if he's even limited, I would bet the
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: house he's playing.
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: I would too.
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: He's got to get out there. Man, this this, this,
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: this is I don't know man anyway. Uh and we
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: saw life without him ain't grand, but this camlot too?
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: Would they please play him in lines? I get it
• 30:24
  Speaker 2: as a fullback. He's had some nice blocks. He's an
• 30:25
  Speaker 2: in line tight end. Move him there, all right, that's
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: my soapbox. Lane Johnson with a shoulder stinger limited on Wednesday.
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: He did some work. Now here's the question. With stingers,
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: you typically get it massaged out, but he hasn't completely
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: got rid of it. Yes, Fred Johnson's done a nice job,
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: but you know, there's no way to know if it's
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: going to go week to week with him. There's he
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: he he doesn't even know. It's just it's got to
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: leave his system, but it's still there.
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you know this is the time where if your
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: Eagles you were, you wish you like your bye week
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: was coming up soon so you could like kind of
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: try to your best to get through it and then
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: you have a week and then another week to rest
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: a guy. But they don't have one for a while,
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: so wet. That's more so with these injuries where you
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: can play through it, but then you also run the
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: risk of reaggravating it constantly and it becomes a little
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: bit of a cat and mouse game with the treatment there.
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: So yeah, there by is week nine, right, so yeah,
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: and we're now we're moving along. Now it's week five already.
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: So hey man, after this week, you're five of seventeen
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: is almost like thirty percent. It's crazy to me, I know,
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: it's how fast this thing moves, right, I.
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: Got buys this week, the first week of buys. So anyway, yep,
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: so oll right. Jalen Carter still with his shoulder, issuing
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: Dory Jackson with going nowt here's a good thing. Carter
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: worked well Wednesday, so did Jackson. Now he wasn't really
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: that close last week. He was not expected to play
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: all week. He was kind of knew that. But they
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: did get him some work very late, very limited work.
• 31:52
  Speaker 2: He's doing more this week. Jaylen Carter, Look, you saw him.
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: He held his shoulder. We talked about this and our
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: initial reporting with card when they draft Roim. The one
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: issue that you had on and off the field was
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: a shoulder issue. We don't know if it's the same shoulder.
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: We're looking into it but the bottom line is he
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: saw him. He was in pain. He did talk after
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: the game. He felt he needed to go out there
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: and do the right thing by his teammates, a great
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: job by him. This could be recurring all season, you know,
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: this is but that's why barn Young's playing as much
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: as he is. That's it. I mean, they just don't
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: they're kind of they don't have a lot of you know,
• 32:29
  Speaker 2: Ty Robinson's not ready to play. He's just not ready
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: to contribute yet. So till he is, Barron Young's that
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: first guy off the bench, and that's it.
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Ty Robinson's sort of like the forgotten draft pick
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: because you know, there was an opportunity we thought with
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: the thinness of DT for him to be able to
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: at least get some rotational time. But he's just not
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: there yet. He's not ready. He wasn't ready in camp.
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: We talked about his preseason performances were a little inconsistent.
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: He overplayed some angles at times, and obviously Vick still
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: feels that he needs more time before he gets on
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: the field.
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, real quick, Greg said he was very raw in
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: the preseason. Greg, we asked him to if you could
• 33:05
  Speaker 2: watch the preseason tape there' shutin' questions we had. He
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: said he was really raw by what.
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: He saw, right, Yeah, yeah, that sounds about right. This
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: Jalen Carter thing. Man, it's very weird, don't even I mean,
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: he looks at times like the camera will focus on
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: him on the sideline and he's grabbing his shoulder like
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: you would think he's in a pretty severe amount of pain.
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: But both he vic well vic vic shrunk's off everybody's pain.
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: Like you could be, like, you know, have bloody and
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: dead on the field, and he would tell you to
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: get your ass out there. But it just seems like
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: Carter's really fighting through it. Now. We know he had
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: some stuff in college, but I don't remember it is
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: first or second year. Seeing this hit him like really
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: battling it like we're seeing now.
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's something that's got to be monitor to the
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: point if they think it's gonna be chronic, which right
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: now seems to be. Hey, you, I don't know if
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: you realize this. You know, you guys put that injury
• 33:59
  Speaker 2: report out in training camp. He was on the first one.
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I remember he remember last year, Yeah, last
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: year at him they would put him on the injury.
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: He would miss like a Wednesday practice for a shoulder,
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: and you and I would be like, well, we know
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: about his history, but it's he just played the game.
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: He didn't look like he was. It would be sort
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: of surprised. It felt like a pop up, and then
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: it would never become anything.
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: Well he did. He has missed time for with it,
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: by the way.
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, just not in the NFL, though, I'm saying.
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: I think he I'll look, I'm reasonably sure he has
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: missed a game because of it.
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: Okay, maybe maybe maybe he did miss a game, but yeah,
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: it's just this is the first time I can remember
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: seeing him like sort of visibly in pain and trying
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: to fight through it.
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: Camera showed him on the sideline your right, and you
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: know the heat. Andrew was there. I talked to in fact,
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: Andrew and I. The waitress waited on us at Chickies
• 34:47
  Speaker 2: on Tuesday. She was at the game. She said she
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: had to go to the concourse it was so hot.
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: M M.
• 34:52
  Speaker 2: You know, yeah, car has missed now he missed one game.
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: Sixteen games each the last two years. But didn't they
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: not play their players in the season finale?
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: I think one of them. I thought one of them
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: they did play the starters because they didn't play well.
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: Was it twenty three?
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: He wasn't.
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: That's a good call, double check. But the bottom line
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: is he's had this recurring shoulder problem that we definitely
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: know because it's a fact, Right, he's had shoulder problems.
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: So it's something to keep an eye on as you
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: go along. Hair, And look, that's part of why at
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: times he's not played well this season. That's just that's
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: part of it.
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, No, that's fair. Yeah, you're right. It looked like
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: his first year he missed Week six, It looked like
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: he didn't didn't play there. Okay, I'm sure it shoulder, Yeah,
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: all right, So we'll just have to I wonder if
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: in the off season we're going to find out he,
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: you know, has a surgery of something or something. Yeah,
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: because usually that stuff doesn't just go away on its own, right,
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: I mean, if there's something structurally or it's something in
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: there that's going to keep bothering him, it's hard to
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: see that just go away.
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: And how I mean, look when they get the week
• 36:00
  Speaker 2: nine to bye man rehab the hell out of it,
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: man massages and treatment and anyway, right, all.
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: Right, And Nondri Jackson still limited with the groin. We'll
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: see again. I thought Killy Ringo did held his own
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: as a coverage.
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: I know for a fact he did. By the way,
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: just on your point off you can't see it off TV.
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: For for the amateurs who were watching off TV saying,
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: oh they didn't throw them, he didn't. He didn't do anything.
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: Two people told me who great Eagles tape he was.
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: One guy said, Okay, there were a couple of times
• 36:31
  Speaker 2: where they probably could have beaten him, he thought, because
• 36:34
  Speaker 2: he was behind a little bit, he said, overall, but
• 36:36
  Speaker 2: overall not on not in coverage ones to throw to him.
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: Mostly he was where he's supposed to be. Like he
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: he was there like Vic wasn't just making it up.
• 36:49
  Speaker 2: He was sticky, that's the term. Yeah, so we were
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: right he was.
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that he just did poor and tackling.
• 36:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, there were a couple like dude, what he was like?
• 37:00
  Speaker 2: If you if you ask defensive bass coach, what's it
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: when you're great? What? What? What's what are your like?
• 37:05
  Speaker 2: Five top things coverages Number one, that's there's no debate
• 37:08
  Speaker 2: over it. Tackling is clearly in the top five, if
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: not top three. Angles the one was so off. I
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: was like, but now now I like VI explanation. I
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: think it's fair. There's the way you tackles a special
• 37:20
  Speaker 2: teams player. There's a way you tackles the corner. I
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: thought that was pretty good.
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that is true. But yes, you're right. In VIX defense,
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: where you're playing a lot of zone, you ask you're
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: running your your corners.
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: Not as much, not as much.
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: Well there's the plane even when they they play. Yeah,
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: you're right, you're not not as much, way more heavily zone. Yeah.
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: But the point is you don't the outside corners. Sometimes
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: they're passing off guys so they don't have to run
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: all downfield. You gotta tackle when the balls coming your way.
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: Gotta be a little better. Yeah, and I and look,
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: he also had a hole that wasn't called Quinnon, who
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: was a stud in this game. Rereco Sells called him
• 37:53
  Speaker 2: a top three corner.
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: Not arguing with Greg. They got to watch the hands
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: East be in the Hands East.
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: You know, I've never been so proud of my pregame
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: m v P pick as I was for picking quin.
• 38:05
  Speaker 2: I don't know why you thought so, Why did you
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: think so so?
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: I kind of thought that I think. I thought what
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: happened is what I thought is that Baker wasn't going
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: to really without Mike Evans. Baker was only going to
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: trustg Buka, And I thought Vic was going to travel Mitchell.
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: And I know Baker is sort of cocky, so I
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: felt like he was. I felt like Baker was going
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: to say, do I want to go away for Quinnon
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: and then try to throw the ball all day to
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: strolling Shepherd and and who's the other receiver that they have?
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: Who's just okay? And god win? But even god wins
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: the spot guy, So you know, yeah, so I just
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: I felt he was going to take his chances. I'm
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: going to tog Buka against Mitchell, and he did, and
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: Mitchell got the best of it.
• 38:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and the one play, you know, the one plays,
• 38:51
  Speaker 2: as Greg explained to me, Now they they they were
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: a little bit late. They could knock it down. See
• 38:56
  Speaker 2: I saw watching off TV. It looked to me down Yeah,
• 39:00
  Speaker 2: I mean, but but again that was a fluke play.
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: Quanyon is an absolute stud like this, how we it?
• 39:07
  Speaker 2: No one's perfect? If you you know, we beat him
• 39:09
  Speaker 2: up pretty bad before twenty one. We just always tell
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: the truth right, that's a top five draft for since
• 39:13
  Speaker 2: twenty one. Less need. A lot of people think that
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: Rams are the best drafting team.
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: They're really good.
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: They're really good, you know they Now I still struggle
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: with their inside backers, but that's another story for another time,
• 39:24
  Speaker 2: and how how weak they are at corner and how
• 39:26
  Speaker 2: they get away with it. Yeah, but coaching matters. But uh, look,
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: nothing's ever perfect. But he like Quanyon and all the
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: all the criticisms about oh, we can't play man coverage
• 39:38
  Speaker 2: all the senior ball, it doesn't matter, that's only three
• 39:40
  Speaker 2: days of practice. Well it sure as hell mattered because
• 39:43
  Speaker 2: every NFL team said, we're not drafted in the first
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: round you even consider it unless he plays man coverage.
• 39:48
  Speaker 2: And he did. Good have Jim Naggat did to agree
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: to it?
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, all right, So that is all right. Let's
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: talk about some Eagles who are not on the injury report.
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: Good news for them and good news of course for
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: the Eagles. Real quick, though, I just wanted to not forget.
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: I wanted to thank three people. I think our viewers
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: on YouTube have probably noticed that we have really nice
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: new overlays on a lot of our shows and new
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: cover art and podcast art and just our graphic designs
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: I think are way more appealing to the eye on
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: a lot of our shows. And I want to thank
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: Nick Palmisano, who has been doing an excellent job as
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: our graphic design intern. He's also making a lot of
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: great social media clips, but the graphic design work has
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: been phenomenal. He's a great kid. I know his father.
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: By the way, Palmisano's sandwich shop on Egg Harbor Road
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: in Sewel is the best sandwich you will ever eat
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: in your life. In fact, I love it all, but
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: I keep ordering the flame Mignon cheese steak because it's
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: that good. But they do they do they actually do
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: they have a time there? Yeah? Absolutely, Okay. I'm in
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: as on Egg Harbor Road in Sewel, which is also Washington.
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: And then also want to thank Xander Jackson who is
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: making all of our great social media clips on Instagram, YouTube,
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: and Donovan Worthy, another rowan's doing just like like Xanders,
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: is our audio and video editing intern, and he's been
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: helping us out behind the scenes with all of his production.
• 41:13
  Speaker 2: I want to in fact Neil Hartman.
• 41:15

• 41:38
  Speaker 2: Love working with him, great dude. Yeah, I've known Neil
• 41:41
  Speaker 2: from number of years. And by the former Glassborough State
• 41:44
  Speaker 2: by the way, for those of you don't know, correct,
• 41:46
  Speaker 2: that's correct, which believe it or not. I have friends,
• 41:49
  Speaker 2: I have friends who actually played baseball I believe or
• 41:51
  Speaker 2: not when it was Glassborough. But anyway, yeah, what's that?
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: Then there used to be a Trenton State and now that's.
• 41:59
  Speaker 2: Yes, all right, let's go. Let's let's add this. This
• 42:05
  Speaker 2: is good news off the injury report, which is another
• 42:07
  Speaker 2: thing we picked start doing last year with the first week,
• 42:09
  Speaker 2: we're gonna do this. But this is this is actually
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: pretty good. Tanner Mcki is no longer the injury report
• 42:14
  Speaker 2: barks something highly foreseeen. He should be the number two
• 42:16
  Speaker 2: quarterback on Sunday. That matters because it hurts, gets hurt,
• 42:19
  Speaker 2: he's in and it's healed. That's a good for him.
• 42:23
  Speaker 2: Shipley's ribs of healed enough that he's not on the
• 42:25
  Speaker 2: injury report. Also great news. Campbell off with the triceps,
• 42:29
  Speaker 2: bought off with the knee because you know, reporters are
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: a lowed they only Therefore they only get fifteen to
• 42:33
  Speaker 2: twenty minutes to watch warm ups practice because you know
• 42:37
  Speaker 2: one guy's wearing a brace, the other guy's got something
• 42:39
  Speaker 2: on his arm or whatever the case may be. Well,
• 42:42
  Speaker 2: guess what they're off the injury report.
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: That's great news, absolutely all right. Now, there are some
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: Broncos injuries we got to get into, and we'll get

  Speaker 1: experience made for Philly fans twenty one and up. All right, Well, adam,
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: They the Broncos are nursing a couple of injuries, and
• 45:22
  Speaker 1: the one that really jumps out is Nick Bonito, who
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: is probably I don't want him to say the most
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: underrated because football people know. I just don't think the
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: whole country, the football fans know how good Nick Benito
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: really is.
• 45:35
  Speaker 2: You know, it's funny. Greg's not perfect. He gets some
• 45:37
  Speaker 2: stuff like look, he can't look. He just goes by.
• 45:39
  Speaker 2: Here's what the tape looks like. Yeah, he loved Benito
• 45:43
  Speaker 2: like it was his own song. Like he was like
• 45:45
  Speaker 2: this kid, it's funny. He told me, He's like, why
• 45:49
  Speaker 2: are people talking? Because he always asked me, hey is
• 45:51
  Speaker 2: this guy that a lot of people are talking about
• 45:53
  Speaker 2: around the league. I go, yes, Scott and people like
• 45:55
  Speaker 2: him second third round wound up being a second rounder.
• 45:58
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 45:58
  Speaker 2: I love this kid, loves this tape. He's an absolute study.
• 46:02
  Speaker 2: Got he he's the highest paid defender at rusher in
• 46:05
  Speaker 2: Bronco's history. But really good football player. He's going to play.
• 46:08
  Speaker 2: My understanding what their injuries are very simple. Benito was
• 46:11
  Speaker 2: gonna play with the risk injury. Alex Singleton came back
• 46:13
  Speaker 2: from the ACL injury. He's got a thumb injury. He's
• 46:15
  Speaker 2: playing through it. Marvin mems there, who's really explosive their
• 46:19
  Speaker 2: punt and kickoff return and receiver. We're going to break
• 46:22
  Speaker 2: down the receiver corp which is really deep and really good.
• 46:24
  Speaker 2: This is I know the Bucks didn't have Evans. That's
• 46:27
  Speaker 2: why I like the Eagles to win that game last week.
• 46:29
  Speaker 2: I know the Bronco has been in consistent this season.
• 46:31
  Speaker 2: They are really deep at receiver. This is a tough
• 46:34
  Speaker 2: matchup for the Eagles, so they're going to have those guys.
• 46:37
  Speaker 2: Dre Greenlaw will not play. He was on injury reserve
• 46:39
  Speaker 2: and I don't know that he even would start. Justin Strnad,
• 46:42
  Speaker 2: who's been with them for a number of years. Originally
• 46:44
  Speaker 2: he was drafted by the Broncos. I think he probably
• 46:47
  Speaker 2: would have started over He's a good football player. But
• 46:49
  Speaker 2: green Law quadroceps. You know, it's a shame. He's not
• 46:51
  Speaker 2: been the same since he was at the A c
• 46:54
  Speaker 2: L in the Super Bowl. When he was running onto
• 46:57
  Speaker 2: the field, where is it, Achilles?
• 46:59
  Speaker 1: No Achilles?
• 46:59
  Speaker 2: It was a killes, killies, Okay, killes. Such a shame
• 47:02
  Speaker 2: he's not been the same. But yeah, they're another team
• 47:06
  Speaker 2: that typically does not have a lot of places I
• 47:11
  Speaker 2: chart this stuff. They don't typically have a lot of
• 47:13
  Speaker 2: players on the injury report for forever reason. So give
• 47:17
  Speaker 2: their their medical staff credits. Credit to them, and that's
• 47:20
  Speaker 2: why they're good.
• 47:21
  Speaker 1: I think if you would have asked me, I don't know.
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: I guess after twenty twenty season, would Alex Singleton, after
• 47:27
  Speaker 1: his Eagles career, still be a good and serviceable starting
• 47:31
  Speaker 1: linebacker for a good playoff team in twenty twenty five,
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: I'd probably say no, you know, because he's not everybody's
• 47:39
  Speaker 1: cup of tea with this skill set, but he is
• 47:41
  Speaker 1: for that defense. He's been good. I think he's had
• 47:43
  Speaker 1: a couple of hundred tackle years for them, So good for.
• 47:45
  Speaker 2: Him coming up the ACO. I talked to Alex at
• 47:48
  Speaker 2: the Super Bowl at the media radio row whatever you
• 47:52
  Speaker 2: call it. Great dude, just great work for the community.
• 47:55
  Speaker 2: Good for him, and he got a huge contract.
• 47:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 47:58
  Speaker 2: One of his agents to him high school.
• 48:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 48:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 48:03
  Speaker 1: It's just it's sort of like, for a little while,
• 48:06
  Speaker 1: Singleton was kind of the poster child of what was
• 48:09
  Speaker 1: wrong with egos linebackers, that they were all just like
• 48:12
  Speaker 1: undrafted guys that you're trying to exactly right. He was
• 48:16
  Speaker 1: pretty good, just like t Jbwards end up being making
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: himself pretty good, but there were so many others around
• 48:21
  Speaker 1: him that were not that it just brought down the
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: entire defense, right, and.
• 48:26
  Speaker 2: So we're gonna talk. We'll talk Roddie Moss on Friday,
• 48:28
  Speaker 2: who some teams told me they thought it was a safety.
• 48:30
  Speaker 2: He's too high hipped, too much. He's a really good athlete.
• 48:33
  Speaker 2: But could he play? Could he be a started corner?
• 48:35
  Speaker 2: The answer is yes. We'll get into him on John
• 48:38
  Speaker 2: Cooper's a good, very unready ash rusher with Benito. We'll
• 48:41
  Speaker 2: talk about John Franklin Myers has revived his career after
• 48:44
  Speaker 2: he was traded from the Jets. Talk about Dobbins who
• 48:46
  Speaker 2: has revived his career again. Rgie Harvey, that really good
• 48:49
  Speaker 2: offensive line. It's one of these things where you go, well,
• 48:51
  Speaker 2: why aren't they better? We're gonna talk to Coseelle about
• 48:53
  Speaker 2: that on Friday or Saturday whatever.
• 48:55
  Speaker 1: That's a that's a great point, don't it? Is Zach
• 48:57
  Speaker 1: Allen healthy for them?
• 48:58
  Speaker 2: He's yeah, yeah, plary guy. The Eagles, really really good player.
• 49:02
  Speaker 2: They were not in his price range. Show they didn't.
• 49:04
  Speaker 2: They didn't. I don't even I don't. I can't remember
• 49:05
  Speaker 2: if they made it off. I know they really liked him.
• 49:07
  Speaker 2: But he's just a good football player there. They have
• 49:10
  Speaker 2: good schemes, yep. It's one of these things you scratch
• 49:14
  Speaker 2: your head because they boy, they they've turned around with
• 49:16
  Speaker 2: Sean Payton. The coaching is really good, but what they
• 49:19
  Speaker 2: you would think they'd be a little bit better. But
• 49:20
  Speaker 2: we'll see, we'll see what Greg says.
• 49:22
  Speaker 1: There you go, all right, That is a great look
• 49:25
  Speaker 1: at what's going on with the Eagles right now and
• 49:27
  Speaker 1: what's going on with the Broncos. And of course the
• 49:30
  Speaker 1: next time you hear us break more down it will
• 49:32
  Speaker 1: be with Greg Cosel on the Inside the Birds pregame show.
