Football at Four: A Discussion on Direction of Eagles Offense · Inside the Birds: A Philadelphia Eagles Podcast

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: This is football at four.
• 0:02
  Speaker 2: If they're going to play that coverage, as a former
• 0:05
  defensive back, let me tell you something, you have to
• 0:09
  make them pay. And the Eagles didn't do that until
• 0:12
  the very end of the game. And so I was
• 0:14
  getting kind of frustrated with their inability to push the
• 0:17
  ball down the field.
• 0:18
  Speaker 3: That is Mike Mayock on the Believe In Eagles podcast.
• 0:22
  He said he was very frustrated with the Eagles inability
• 0:25
  to push the ball downfield, not because they couldn't, just
• 0:28
  because the coverage that they were seeing from the Kansas
• 0:32
  City Chiefs.
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: What is going on with the Eagles offense?
• 0:35
  Speaker 4: Is it?
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: Is it a problem at all? I mean, they keep
• 0:38
  winning games, so does that mean it's not a problem.
• 0:41
  What is this Eagle offense with new coordinator Kevin Patula?
• 0:45
  Is it confusing?
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: They do?
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: They need a better plan to get the ball to
• 0:49
  Brown or from Mike Mayock as he says, the Eagles
• 0:51
  need a better plan and he thinks it hurts.
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: Needs to play more aggressive.
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: Jeff Boscher from the Inside the Birds podcast, It is
• 0:59
  Football at four powered by the Inside of the Burns podcast.
• 1:02
  They brought to you by the Fanatics sportsbook at Ocean
• 1:05
  Casino in Atlantic City. Bosh, you know a lot of
• 1:07
  people early in this season looking for things to complain about,
• 1:11
  and right now it's Kevin Patula and this offense. So
• 1:14
  what is the Eagle offense through two weeks.
• 1:18
  Speaker 4: Well, it's it's an offense that's not very explosive.
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: Through two weeks, it's.
• 1:22
  Speaker 4: An offense that has been mostly a ground and pound
• 1:27
  type offense. They've got two big plays in the air,
• 1:30
  and both of them were important each time. But yeah,
• 1:35
  I mean, I would agree with Mike's assessment that there
• 1:40
  is not as much of a downfield attack, and I
• 1:42
  think the teams are, you know, like the Chiefs. The
• 1:45
  Chiefs played a lot of too deep on first and
• 1:47
  second down, and then you know, as we talked about,
• 1:49
  when it was third down, then they were just bringing
• 1:52
  the house, which it's hard. It's hard when the house is.
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: Brought at you.
• 1:55
  Speaker 4: I mean, yeah, you get those one on ones, but
• 1:57
  your time he gets thrown off, you got guys in
• 1:59
  your face, free rushers, things like that. Not every team
• 2:02
  plays defense like that. The Rams certainly don't. So maybe
• 2:06
  there'll be some opportunities for them to figure out the
• 2:08
  rest of their offense. This Sunday.
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: You know when yesterday Adam was talking about you know,
• 2:14
  Jalen Hurts and the time he has pulling the trigger.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: Are there plays that they are leaving on the field.
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: Yeah, a couple, I mean not. You know, it's not
• 2:25
  like every other play. They only passed the ball twenty
• 2:28
  times a game on average, and so if they you know,
• 2:31
  complete twelve and then there's so we're talking about like
• 2:35
  eight incompletions, right, or if we're talking about a completion
• 2:38
  that went to one guy but could have gone to
• 2:40
  the other. I saw a couple of those situations. But
• 2:44
  in general, they just don't pass a whole lot, Mike.
• 2:46
  So it's not like general Hurts is leading plays left
• 2:49
  right center all over the field.
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: When you look at this team's offense, how is it
• 2:55
  different from the Stiking offense to the john offense to
• 3:01
  what we saw last year with Kellen Moore?
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: Is this is it the same similar offense?
• 3:07
  Speaker 4: It's the same. To me, Mike, it is the same offense.
• 3:10
  I've evenven talked to other people about this. I know
• 3:13
  there's a whole lot of like, well, this looks more
• 3:15
  like Brian Johnson's offense than Shanks than Kellen Moore's offense.
• 3:21
  I'd remind everybody to go back and.
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: Look at the numbers.
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: Right, the Eagles offense pass offense was like twenty sixth
• 3:28
  last year. It was not the It was not flashy.
• 3:32
  And Mike, you know what, you're the best person to
• 3:34
  remind people of this because you always have a phrase
• 3:37
  that I agree with. You always say people remember what
• 3:41
  they saw last, not most often, right, And so people
• 3:46
  most remember right now what the offense looked like in
• 3:49
  the super Bowl and to maybe a larger extent, the
• 3:52
  NFC Championship game, but sort of forget that for seventeen
• 3:56
  weeks before that, and then even the first playoff. Their
• 3:58
  first two playoff games, the Eagles passing offense looked a
• 4:01
  lot more like the first two weeks of this season
• 4:03
  than it did the Super Bowl and the NFC Championship game.
• 4:07
  I would imagine that people are sort of getting tired
• 4:09
  of having the conversation of why this pass offense looks
• 4:13
  this way? But then other times it's explosive. Who knows
• 4:17
  that's just the kids, but is conceptually to answer your question,
• 4:22
  conceptually what they do, the type of routes that they run,
• 4:26
  who runs those routes? Those all look very very similar
• 4:30
  to me as Kellen Moore's offense and even Shase Tyken
• 4:35
  to Brian Johnson because it has to the Eagles, like
• 4:38
  most teams, they design plays that fit the strengths of
• 4:43
  their personnel. Well why do they run a whole go ahead?
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: What I was gonna interject with is I think one
• 4:50
  of the things for me anyway, like I don't aesthetically,
• 4:53
  I don't care what you look like when the game.
• 4:55
  You're good enough by a young but the schedule this
• 4:57
  year is more challenging that if your offense can't hold
• 5:00
  up its end of the bargain, is that going to
• 5:02
  be something that you end up talking about in Week
• 5:05
  fourteen and saying, man, this offense just and then you're
• 5:08
  looking at the personality offense like it's one thing. You know,
• 5:11
  you got this all this personnel. You're not an explosive offense. Okay, fine,
• 5:15
  you keep winning, your winning, your winning. You're doing that
• 5:17
  against the schedule last year that's not nearly as challenging
• 5:20
  as this year's schedule.
• 5:23
  Speaker 4: It's a fair point. I guess I would just say,
• 5:25
  you know, how many playoff teams did the Eagles beat
• 5:28
  last year? Like teams in the regular season who made
• 5:31
  the playoffs to the Eagles beat and how did they
• 5:32
  beat them? They beat the Rams? Right, how did they
• 5:35
  beat the Rams? Was it a pass offense or did
• 5:37
  say Klon Barkley rush for two.
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: Or Well in that game, right, Segua Barkley crushed them.
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: I mean they beat it and they scored thirty seven
• 5:44
  point They beat them thirty seven to twenty last year.
• 5:47
  Speaker 4: Right, So you know they beat the Steelers in a
• 5:50
  game that was very rare because they passed the ball
• 5:52
  really well. The Ravens they ran the ball well. They
• 5:56
  had a few pass plays from Hurts, but I mean
• 5:59
  the most the schedule is tough, and I do agree
• 6:01
  with you that at some point, like some of this
• 6:04
  stuff catches up to you because people study what you do,
• 6:07
  they figure out your strengths, they exploit your weaknesses. That's
• 6:11
  why you counteract, Right, That's why the Eagle sign Saquon
• 6:13
  Barkley last year because people had caught up to what
• 6:16
  they were doing in the passing game from the year
• 6:18
  before that was so explosive. Okay, so now the people
• 6:22
  are gonna lock into Saquon Barkley try to stop him.
• 6:25
  So far he has no explosive So yeah, it will
• 6:27
  be on the passing game to look better, and that
• 6:30
  will be on Ken Batulo. I wasn't trying to absolve
• 6:32
  anybody or anything. I'm just saying the pass offense is
• 6:35
  what it is because it's always been well that way
• 6:38
  from the concepts, And.
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: I agree with what you're saying.
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: But you know, I guess you look at it and
• 6:42
  it's just one of these simple like things when we
• 6:44
  talk about and like I say all the time, who
• 6:46
  cares about these lists? Who cares who's the number two
• 6:49
  five ranked quarterback? But these are the reasons why. Like
• 6:52
  if you had aj Brown and Devonte Smith and they
• 6:55
  were in Cincinnati, those guys are gonna have a fifteen
• 6:58
  hundred yards right. I mean that's where the discord comes
• 7:02
  in sometimes of look at the talent you have. Are
• 7:05
  you maximizing the talent that you have on your roster
• 7:09
  by doing what you're doing? Not that it even but
• 7:13
  at the end of the day, does it matter if
• 7:14
  you keep winning the games? I guess until that catches
• 7:17
  up to you and you end up not winning the game.
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean you just I think you just basically
• 7:22
  articulated the complexity of it right there. It's like you
• 7:25
  got But.
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: Do you agree with people that if I said AJ
• 7:27
  Brown and Devonte Smith were playing in Cincinnati or they're
• 7:31
  playing in you know, Kansas City, they I mean this,
• 7:35
  those offenses would be unstoppable.
• 7:38
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean those are well, I mean no offense.
• 7:40
  But I think Jamar Chase and T Higgins are about
• 7:43
  as good as a J. Brown and and I'm sorry, yeah,
• 7:46
  Jamar Chase and Higgins are as good as what the
• 7:49
  Eagles have. Yeah, and their their pass office is unstoppable,
• 7:53
  but they don't win as many games because the rest
• 7:56
  of the team isn't unstoppable. And that's why it's it's
• 7:59
  really more about what you are as a team than
• 8:01
  what you just are as a passing offense. But yes,
• 8:05
  you still need to be a better passing offense. I definitely.
• 8:08
  I'm not sitting here trying.
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: To tell you, well, okay, and then the next point
• 8:12
  is to say you need to be a better passing offense.
• 8:14
  We can all kind of agree that has been good,
• 8:16
  but are they as good of a run offense right now?
• 8:19
  I know the big thing is Barkley hasn't busted the
• 8:22
  long one, But do you like what you've seen from
• 8:25
  the running game through the first couple of weeks. Does
• 8:27
  that look similar to the running game that we saw
• 8:29
  a year ago.
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: I don't think it's bad, but I definitely think that
• 8:33
  the backbone and the identity of it would say Klon Barkley,
• 8:38
  and we really only have last year as our sample size,
• 8:40
  is that he's going to get you. You know, sixty
• 8:44
  percent of his runs are going to be those three
• 8:46
  to five yard runs and then he's going to pop
• 8:49
  two or three with his athleticism that are backbreaking fifty
• 8:53
  yard runs. And he just hasn't had that yet. So
• 8:56
  I but I don't, I don't. I don't dislike what
• 9:01
  I've seen. He's still averaging, he has still has a
• 9:03
  decent average. I mean, he rushed for a touchdown last game.
• 9:06
  Jalen Hurts is still a part of the rushing offense
• 9:09
  when he runs on third down and things like that.
• 9:11
  I think they're fine. And I think we'd all be
• 9:13
  foolish if we thought that the whole year is gonna
• 9:16
  go this way where Barkley's not gonna pop a long run. Yeah,
• 9:19
  and you know, maybe more than one in a game.
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: Well, and obviously, yeah, he hasn't done that, but he
• 9:24
  has done it against the Rams. He had monster game
• 9:27
  against him in the playoffs. He had a monster game
• 9:29
  against them in I think they played in Week twelve
• 9:32
  last year. Talking with Jeff Mosher Football at four, you know,
• 9:35
  and look, the reason why you look at the offense
• 9:39
  under such a you know, under scrutiny is because of
• 9:42
  the talent they have, right, And then it feeds off
• 9:45
  the fact where people look at Hurts, he's the more
• 9:48
  most polarizing guy probably in the league when it comes
• 9:52
  to oh, he's the twelfth best guy, Well he's the
• 9:55
  fifteenth best guy. No, how do you say he's not
• 9:57
  the fifth best guy? Well, how come he's not top three?
• 10:00
  That is where this conversation is always so bonkers, with
• 10:04
  him leading the way and people saying, well, we have
• 10:07
  him too low on this crazy list. But the way
• 10:10
  the Eagles run their offense almost feeds into them believing it.
• 10:15
  Speaker 4: I mean, you're right, did you start to get off
• 10:18
  the rails then with things like that, you know, My
• 10:21
  only issue ever is with the hypocrisy of the argument,
• 10:24
  because if the argument is that Jalen Hurts is like,
• 10:28
  you know, a number one, number two, number three, because
• 10:30
  all he he only just wins. Yeah, well, then for
• 10:34
  the fans, Eagles fans we say that, then I guess
• 10:37
  they all agree. Eli Manning is a first Ball Hall
• 10:39
  of Famer because he's won two championships and not too many.
• 10:42
  And Joe fla Joe Flacco must have been the best
• 10:46
  quarterback in the league for the first seven years of
• 10:48
  his careers in the playoffs. Every year he won a
• 10:49
  Super Bowl, he won a Super Bowl MVP, he had
• 10:52
  a game winning touchdown to Lee Evans in the AFC
• 10:55
  Championship game in New England, dropped or else they would
• 10:57
  have been in the Super Bowl that year. I mean
• 10:59
  he would. It's great if you're just judging all he
• 11:02
  does is win Joe Flacklers first seven years or as
• 11:04
  good as anybody.
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but well, I.
• 11:05
  Speaker 4: Don't know that I would get that people admitting.
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: That, yes, well, and the same discourse of.
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: People being offended that Hurts is so low on the
• 11:15
  list are now complaining that the offense isn't doing enough.
• 11:20
  Speaker 4: And there's that too, right exactly. You know, every season
• 11:24
  sort of brings on its new topics and storylines. I
• 11:27
  just try to keep it to like, wow, who are
• 11:29
  they playing? What's the opponent.
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: Well, I know yesterday we were talking about it, and
• 11:33
  you know, a guy like Dan Orlowsky points out, Wow,
• 11:36
  they're running the same pass play ten times, you know,
• 11:39
  the same past pattern, and you're wondering, could is there
• 11:42
  more meat on the bone even as limited as they
• 11:46
  as limited times as they pass in a game, you
• 11:48
  only gotta throw the ball twenty times.
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: Okay, make the twenty count.
• 11:52
  Speaker 4: Uh yeah, so that's fair, right. I mean, if anything,
• 11:57
  if you want to do a comparison between Kellen Moore
• 12:00
  and Petullo and sort of throw patula under the bus,
• 12:03
  I mean Kellen Moore's so they might be picking from
• 12:07
  the same menu, the same play, calls, the same play designs.
• 12:10
  But Kellen had been a coordinator a couple of times,
• 12:14
  had had a lot of experience with it. There is
• 12:16
  something to be said for a feel of the game
• 12:18
  and when to call the right plays. And I think
• 12:21
  it's obvious to expect that Kevin Patula might not have
• 12:25
  that feel that Kellen Moore had last year for calling
• 12:30
  the right play at the right time, because it's just
• 12:32
  his first year in it. But you know what, like
• 12:34
  you got to give a guy a chance to grow
• 12:36
  you can't every single year just go out and get
• 12:39
  yourself a five time play calling offensive coordinator. Like the
• 12:43
  fans have to realize. I've seen things on my owner.
• 12:46
  You don't hire a guy like that. You don't do that. Why,
• 12:49
  I mean, you have to, you know, you sometimes you
• 12:52
  have a choice. You gotta give a guy a chance
• 12:54
  to grow something well.
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: And I guess you know the one area where I
• 12:58
  can see like people having PTSD is well, you were
• 13:03
  ten and one with Brian Johnson. You were winning games,
• 13:06
  but it never looked good and then eventually the whole
• 13:10
  thing game crashing down. I mean, I don't know that
• 13:13
  we have the parallels of that season to this season
• 13:15
  at this point right now, but through two weeks, very
• 13:19
  small sample sized, Jeff Mocher, do we say that they
• 13:22
  have more issues on the offense did they do on
• 13:24
  the defense? And how is that even possible when you
• 13:25
  have six new players on defense that have the same
• 13:28
  offense back.
• 13:29
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean they clearly clearly they have more issues
• 13:32
  on the offensive defense right now through two weeks. I mean,
• 13:37
  I know Kansas City gave up a decent amount of
• 13:39
  points in the Chargers in Week one, but I mean
• 13:42
  Kansas City has been a pretty good defense for the
• 13:44
  last four or five years, and you were in Kansas City,
• 13:47
  so I think that that's gotta be taken into account too. Plus,
• 13:50
  the game plan that Spags put in was really good.
• 13:53
  I was expecting something more like that to the Super Bowl,
• 13:56
  to be honest with you. So I mean there's that
• 13:58
  element to it. It's just two weeks, but yeah, it
• 14:02
  is surprising. I think that you would have thought the
• 14:04
  offense would have hit the ground running a little bit better.
• 14:07
  That's fair.
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: Are you looking at this defense and really looking at man,
• 14:12
  if they're at this stage through two weeks, where are
• 14:14
  they going to be in twelve weeks?
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: Well?
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: Yes, I mean the whole turnover creation thing has been
• 14:22
  amazing because I have a weird feeling we're gonna have
• 14:24
  a stretch of the year we're gonna be like, man,
• 14:26
  this defense hasn't created takeaways like it was, and now
• 14:29
  it's really hurting the overall team because sometimes that stuff
• 14:33
  comes in bunches. But I will say that you guys
• 14:36
  have been very consistent going back to last year to
• 14:39
  the first two games. I mean not just takeaways, but
• 14:41
  at huge critical moments, punching the ball away from Miles
• 14:46
  Sanders in the red zone, intercepting Patrick Mahomes to Kelser
• 14:50
  Kelsey in the end zone. I mean those those were
• 14:54
  you take those two plays away, they may lose those
• 14:56
  two games.
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: Oh, listen the.
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: Kelsey drop and then mccouba being there to pick it
• 15:04
  off was you know, you might lose it.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: You're right, you might lose that game.
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: We're talking about a different game possibly if mccoob is
• 15:10
  not Johnny on the spot and he has been that guy,
• 15:13
  and you you know, you look at what he's added
• 15:15
  to this defense. Zadarius Smith, when he's kind of added
• 15:18
  to this defense, I'm intrigued. He played twenty snaps last week.
• 15:22
  How much bigger or different of a role he has?
• 15:25
  As this kind of meticulates, do you think he ends
• 15:27
  up having a bigger role than or is that what
• 15:30
  he is?
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: He's the twenty snap guy.
• 15:33
  Speaker 4: No, I think he can have a bigger role, and
• 15:35
  some of that will be dependent on injuries, some of
• 15:37
  it will be dependent on, you know, how impactful Jex
• 15:41
  Hunt is. You know, he's still a young kid learning
• 15:43
  how to play the position. And Zadarius Smith just hits
• 15:47
  the ground running in his first game, and oh, my god,
• 15:50
  Nick Sangelo is hysterical. I mean, he just totally takes
• 15:54
  the NFL and their acclamation ramp up period in training
• 15:57
  camp to the woods. Yes see, is not really fair
• 16:01
  because like just because he didn't what if he gets
• 16:04
  hurt this week? Yeah, I mean he didn't really give
• 16:06
  it a whole lot of time and emphasis. I get
• 16:08
  that he's old school, but you know, I think they're
• 16:10
  the acclamation I don't think this one example just proves
• 16:14
  that the acclamation period is a complete farce. But that's
• 16:17
  just my opinion.

  Speaker 3: Jeff Boscher Football for Here on a sports Batch Wednesday,
• 16:21
  Eagles getting ready for the Rams. Eagles defense obviously creating
• 16:26
  some turnovers or creating some pressure. I don't know right now,
• 16:31
  this defense it's gonna be. I'm interested to see how
• 16:34
  much more this defense grows and what more they do
• 16:36
  with this defense, because there's a lot of guys that
• 16:38
  are new.
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: Still.
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: He can't be feeling like he can do everything that
• 16:42
  he wants to do yet. I gotta imagine that he's
• 16:44
  having a blast right now thinking what more I could
• 16:46
  add with the with the group that I have.
• 16:49
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I'm really curious with this defense. You know,
• 16:52
  in the first game he played, Vic played Quinna Mitchell
• 16:56
  exclusively on George Pickens. And then this last game he
• 17:00
  was fascinating. He actually played Queenya Mitchell in one spot,
• 17:04
  but he played him as the field cornerback that you know,
• 17:07
  not the boundary, which is the sideline corner. Usually most teams,
• 17:11
  I know, most coordinators know, like to put their best
• 17:14
  corner on the boundary, but Vic did it with the
• 17:18
  opposite way with Quinya Mitchell, and I'm not sure what
• 17:22
  his rationale was for that. It was very interesting to me,
• 17:24
  and I'll be curious to see how he lines them
• 17:27
  up well against the Rams.
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: Well especially against the Rams, because they got Adams and
• 17:31
  they've got Nakua, so two totally different style of receivers.
• 17:35
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but the only thing is that is similar to
• 17:37
  the Cowboys, and where Adams is an X like Pickens
• 17:40
  and the Kupa is a movement player like Lamb. So
• 17:44
  if he decides that he's gonna put Quinnya Mitchell on
• 17:46
  Devonte Adams, then we might have another adri Jackson matchup
• 17:51
  against Nakua that probably is not gonna favor Dori Jackson.
• 17:54
  I think I'm being kind of saying that.
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: Well listen, you know his name didn't come up nearly
• 17:59
  as much this past week.
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: But man, if they would have.
• 18:02
  Speaker 3: Connected on that ball to Thornton down the scene there
• 18:05
  and you see Dorr Jackson colliding with a guy flopping
• 18:08
  on the ground like West and Wilson playing left field,
• 18:11
  that wouldn't have been a good day for him on
• 18:13
  a Monday. No, they were not stay up for the
• 18:17
  game last night, make it.
• 18:20
  Speaker 4: Two nights ago. Yes, last night I tried, but it
• 18:23
  did not make it. I would, but you know, it
• 18:25
  just like a cool sort of pleasant surprise right when
• 18:28
  you're waiting up next morning and you realized, holy cow,
• 18:32
  that's not what I thought.
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: That was me Monday last night.
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: I made it to the end do in large part
• 18:37
  because my buddy from LA was texting me back and
• 18:40
  forth the whole time, so it kind of kept me awake,
• 18:42
  and I was like, I.
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: Guess I've made it this far.
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: When I got to six to six, I almost said,
• 18:47
  I'll find out what happens tomorrow. But I'm glad I
• 18:50
  stayed up to the end there and watched the finish
• 18:53
  of that one. But it's made me cranky today. Man,
• 18:55
  it's maybe a little cranky. We're gonna have to do
• 18:57
  more motion mail bags. We got a lot of people
• 18:59
  texting in question for Jeff, so maybe Wednesdays we'll try
• 19:03
  to do some more Mosher mailbacks. So people seem to
• 19:05
  like that in the summertime, Mosher on a Wednesday here
• 19:08
  because Monday we have a lot of reaction to the
• 19:10
  actual game. But Monday, Wednesday seems to be a good
• 19:13
  Mosher mail bag day for football at four. And of
• 19:15
  course it's brought to you by the Fanatic Sports Book.
• 19:17
  I'll be there on Monday every Monday at the Fanatic
• 19:20
  Sports Book and Monday with Jeff Moscher and Wednesday with
• 19:23
  Jeff Moscher. The Eagles getting ready to take on the Rams,
• 19:27
  and you can hear that game right here on ninety
• 19:29
  seven three. Is it looks like Goddard's gonna play?
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: Huh?
• 19:32
  Speaker 4: Well, I mean he's back in practice today, so after
• 19:34
  a good sign, that's usually a case that he will.
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yep, and that Uh, I don't know, I don't
• 19:39
  know what that adds are Obviously it adds to the
• 19:41
  blocking element. I guess it doesn't add to a past
• 19:44
  game all that much because Goddard's a I mean Calcatara
• 19:46
  is a pretty good receiving tight end.
• 19:49
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but no, it does add I mean, look at
• 19:51
  the Goddard led them in receptions and receiving yards and
• 19:54
  in the postseason he's a big weapon for them.
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah, no, no doubt about it.
• 19:57
  Speaker 3: I'm not you know, I'm just saying cal Katara is
• 20:00
  is a capable pass catcher.
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: He just where he struggles is the first play of
• 20:04
  the game. He gets dusted. He can't you know, he
• 20:06
  can't block. Uh. But we'll all right, buddy, We'll talk
• 20:09
  to you. Mike
