• 0:10
  Speaker 1: Hello everyone, and welcome into this edition of The check
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: O Daily.
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: It's Andrew de Checko recording this on a Tuesday evening.
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: I am back from Tampa.
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: And in case you're wondering, you can go ahead and
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: check out our WBCB show that was Tuesday night from
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: the Chickens and Pizza and Roosevelt Boulevard, Adam Kaplan and myself.
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: Really good conversation for the six to.
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: Seven hour and you can grab that on wherever you
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: get your podcast, or you can check it out on
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: the Inside the Birds YouTube where we have all of
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: our archives, and we'll have all of those shows throughout
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: the season. So the Eagles are back on the practice
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: field Wednesday, and that's where we'll get a better sense
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: of some of the injuries. And you talk about Lane Johnson,
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: Jalen Carr, Tyler Steen, Lobo Okoronqua was placed on IR,
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: Charlie Hewlett, the long snapper was placed on IR today.
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: So they have a spot on the fifty three that
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: they need to fulfill. But from the injury standpoint, we'll
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: get a better idea of who practiced, who didn't, what
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: the injuries are for certain players with the extent will
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: get a better idea of that Wednesday, but I just
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: wanted to take a few moments to talk about the
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: Eagles offense, what that could mean moving forward, and just
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: the I guess the temperature check based off of the
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: information that I have and those who I spoke to
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: in the locker room Sunday after the eagles thirty five
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: to twenty thirty one to twenty five win.
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: Against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. So Jordan Mylotta, who is
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: a leader on.
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: This team and one who has become the centerpiece, a
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: locker room pillar, someone who you can always go to and.
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: He's going to shoot you straight.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: He's going to tell you exactly what's going on, and
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: he maintains that the Eagles are a block away from
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: springing something big in the running game and sort of
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: just to just to stick with it like that.
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: I don't get the sense that he or a lot
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: of the players.
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: Are sounding any of the alarms because they believe that
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: plays are there to be made. And he sort of
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: said that throughout the season, throughout the first four games,
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: that you know, we're a block away, and other players
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: have echoed that sentiment as well. Now DeVante Smith and
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: aj Brown didn't speak after the game. I didn't see
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: DeVante Smith AJ Brown walk past me on his way out.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: We'll hear from presumably both players this week, but based
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: off of everything that you hear, and Jalen Hurts, who
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: spoke after the game, mentioned a lot of it comes
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: down to execution and cited, you know, Kevin Patulo for
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: giving him kudos a little bit for being aggressive on
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: those plays off of the push play and highlighting Dallas
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: Goddard doing a nice job to get in the end zone.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: I don't get the sense that there's any sort of
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: finger pointing or any cause for concern at this time
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: now going into the season, I highlighted Week five as
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: a good barometer as to what the Eagles identity is
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: on that side of the ball and what that could
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: ultimately mean.
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: Who are they going to be?
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: What are they going into the month of October, because
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: that's really where you get a better sense.
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: September is normally an extension of the preseason. He gets
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: some of those kinks out of the way, and they
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: face a pretty good Broncos team who are deep at
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: wide receiver. They have Patrick Sartan, they have enough pieces
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: there offensively to move the football and they can get
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: after the passer a little bit. I'm not citing them
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: as this Jugger Ornaut, but it is a good comp
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: a good gauge of where the Eagles are, and I'm
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: curious to see if they're able to build off of
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: maybe that first half in Tampa. Remember, Kevin Patulo has
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: called just four games in his career, so whether or
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: not you like to hear it or not, there are
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: growing pains that are accompanied with that. He's learning and
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: when you have a team this talented, you feel a
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: little bit better about that. And Morojuma maybe said it
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: best the Eagles defensive tackle.
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: He said, it's.
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: Better to learn while you're winning than while you're losing.
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: So it sounds simple, and I know it can be
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: frustrating at times, but there are a multitude of reasons
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: why the Eagles offense has not performed to standard, and
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: you can't place all of the onus on Kevin Patulo.
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: That's short sighted and really unfair and untrue, because the
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: offensive line hasn't played to their standard, especially along the interior.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: Saquon Barkley is averaging three point one yards per carry
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: fifty nine point three yards per game.
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: The running room hasn't been there.
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: Saquon offered you a pretty good insight into the offense.
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: And what they need to do.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: He knows that they all know, to be clear that
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: this isn't good enough, but they believe in the talent
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: that they have there.
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: They believe in.
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: The ideologies the philosophy that eagles have and Jalen Hurts
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: is probably the best example of that talking about they
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: have to execute better and they know that it was
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: a grimy, a gritty, grinded out type of when.
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: Hey fall is planting season? Did you know that many
• 5:22

  Speaker 3: one and up.
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: And I think that's important to note that you don't
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: see the finger pointing, you don't see the you know,
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: you don't see anybody looking for answers. Not at this
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: stage of the season. They have to be able to
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: put it together from quarter one through quarter four. But
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: I do believe that those that's gonna happen, and that's coming.
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: The more that they play together in a game situation,
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: the more that they learn what they need to do,
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: how to best execute, how to find ways to create
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: space for Saint Kwon Barkley. Some of that. You have
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: to get players healthier because on the offensive line, Lane
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: Johnson will find out about him Wednesday, Tyler Steam will
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: find out about him more wednesday on practice. Landon Dickerson
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: is a warrior and he's battling through some things. Cam
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: Durgens had offseason surgery and didn't see a lot of
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: work in training camp.
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: So I mean all that.
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: Needs to be taken into consideration. And yes, the play
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: call needs to be better. The route concepts. I thought
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: I was gonna see more in breakers, those bang eights
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: that you hear Adam Kaplan talk about often to AJ Brown,
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: which are almost automatic. AJ Brown had nine targets in
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: that game, but you to get them the ball earlier
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: in the game. So that follows on Kevin Patulo and
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: Nick Siriotti to make sure that that is an emphasis
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: and that's how you get jaywhen hurts in the passing
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: game into more of a flow early. So I'm not
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: absolving anyone, but I would just I would just caution
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: folks to be a little bit more mindful, a little
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: easier on Kevin Batulo because there's I guess there's a
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: shared blame. If you want to call it that, and
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: there's a lot of reasons why the offense hasn't met
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: the eye test and they need to be better, but
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: this is a really good test for them to do
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: that against this Broncos team. Now, I do want to
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: get to just some quotes because Kevin Petullo did speak today, and.
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: Let's see specifically about his communication with wide receiver A. J. Brown.
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: He said, AJ and I have a great relationship just
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: throughout the years being here. We spent a lot of
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: time together. So as far as communication and getting to
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: him and and I have had no problem. I know
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: what where his heart is, where he lies. He wants
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: to win, so he feels like he can do everything
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: and anything to.
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: Help us at all times.
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: So as far as I'm concerned, him and I are
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: in a good spot. About those route concepts, he says,
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: you know, because sometimes you could you know, that's been.
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: A criticism of Batulo.
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: He says, I think at times, if you look through
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: the first four games, he's been doing some different stuff
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: and this is really route concepts in terms of AJ Brown.
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: Sometimes we've talked about it before. Sometimes the ball finds him,
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: sometimes it doesn't. So going into every game, you plan
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: on making sure he's the primary and moving forward and
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: moving around and doing stuff for him. If it doesn't
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: go his way, that means usually we're on rhythm or
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: something good's happening, and Jaylen is reading it out, it's
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: going to other guys, and that can happen. I think
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: when you go into it, you just want to make sure, hey,
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: he's the guy who're going through him, and if it happens,
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: it happens, and you just don't want to really force it.
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: There was also another really good answer that there was
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: a good answer here that he provided in terms of
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: what it's like managing so many high end players because
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: as a coordinator that could be it's a positive. It's
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: a good problem to have, but you have to be
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: mindful of all the players that you have and incorporating
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: them into.
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: The game plan on a given week.
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: And so Petullo said, so, I think, first of all,
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: like you said, it's a great problem, right, because some
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: teams don't have what we have, so it's a great problem.
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: And really the guys have been great with me. I've
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: been around here for a while, so obviously I know
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: them a little bit differently, but they all want to win.
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: And that's the number one thing. They all want to win.
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: They'll do anything for the team to win. So whether
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: it's somebody getting the ball, somebody's not. When you watch
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: it at times, there's guys being excited for other guys
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: when they're making plays, and that's all we can really
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: ask for. It's just like, hey, we all want to win.
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: We're on the same page. We know it may be
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: different from play to play or from game to game,
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: but we all.
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: Want to win.
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: So there's just some of the cliff notes, some highlights
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: from Kevin Petullo's press conference to sort of onto my
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: discussion about the offense and where it can improve and
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: what it could look like moving forward. Tomorrow, I'll be
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: back at the Overcare Complex. The Eagles are on the
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: practice field. There's the first locker room session of the week.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: Nick Sirianni talks at twelve ten, so there'll be plenty
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: more to dissect and I will have all of that
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: for you right here on the Check Go Daily.
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: It has been to check Go Daily.
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: Thank you for listening, thank you for the support, and
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: I will talk to everybody Wednesday afternoon with another edition.
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: Take Care
