- 1:28Speaker 1: Uh look, uh, you know, still gotta be cautious a
- 1:31Speaker 1: little bit with that. So we're gonna we're gonna make
- 1:33Speaker 1: sure that he's he's not gonna be a hundred percent obviously,
- 1:37Speaker 1: you know, and nobody is at this time. But but
- 1:39Speaker 1: still wanna make sure that we can't. We don't wanna
- 1:42Speaker 1: set back obviously with him. Any of the guys ETN
- 1:46Speaker 1: has been doing some good things, getting stronger. You know,
- 1:49Speaker 1: another one that's gonna be probably right up to the
- 1:51Speaker 1: game time. Darby's fine, and Gabe has been working through
- 1:57Speaker 1: you know, his shoulder uh issue, and no, probably another
- 2:02Speaker 1: one that's gonna be game time. Yuie Dewey's Dewey's Dewey.
- 2:07Speaker 1: He had a better week. We're gonna see today. Make
- 2:11Speaker 1: a decision today. The tank tank ankle injury. Was that
- 2:16Speaker 1: in practice when he got that or was that coming
- 2:18Speaker 1: out of the game? Coming out the game? Okay, coming again?
- 2:20Speaker 1: How's he doing this week? He's fine, He's fine again.
- 2:24Speaker 1: Ankle injuries are you know, Uh, they're tough especially for
- 2:27Speaker 1: running backs, but for all players. He he battled through
- 2:31Speaker 1: a little bit yesterday and we'll see where he's at today.
- 2:34Speaker 1: You would consider B TJ game time? Yes, Yes, What
- 2:39Speaker 1: sort of environment is the link up there in Philly
- 2:44Speaker 1: for the away team? Tossile man, it's really a great environment, really,
- 2:51Speaker 1: especially the later games. You know, Uh, those fans will
- 2:55Speaker 1: get out there and and honestly, they'll they'll tailgate all
- 2:57Speaker 1: day and and uh and get ready. You know, it's
- 3:01Speaker 1: just what they do. And they're gonna they're gonna pack
- 3:04Speaker 1: pack the link and and and be loud. It's really
- 3:09Speaker 1: a great atmosphere, you know. And for them right now
- 3:11Speaker 1: with the success they're having, it's it should be a
- 3:13Speaker 1: great crowd, and and they'll be. They'll be jazzed up
- 3:16Speaker 1: for a team that's kind of looking for that spark?
- 3:18Speaker 1: Can that be a good thing? Can that be something?
- 3:21Speaker 1: I mean, it's kind of you against the world kind
- 3:23Speaker 1: of that I mean, yeah, I mean that's you know,
- 3:25Speaker 1: that's that's gotta be your mentality a little bit and
- 3:28Speaker 1: going into these games, and honestly, situations like that too
- 3:31Speaker 1: can kind of just relax, you you know, and and
- 3:35Speaker 1: maybe and hopefully eat some eat some tension or some
- 3:37Speaker 1: stress that's going on and just allow you to go play.
- 3:41Speaker 1: So you guys a pretty good reception there, I guess
- 3:44Speaker 1: in twenty twenty two. Do you think that changes this
- 3:46Speaker 1: year or they got to hundred percent? Yeah, I wouldn't
- 3:52Speaker 1: expect anything different. No, I'd tell you it's it's a
- 3:57Speaker 1: great fan base, very passionate about the Eagles. So would
- 4:00Speaker 1: the expectation Ezer can't go Cooper would be yes or order?
- 4:05Speaker 1: What's your confidence in him? Or what did you see
- 4:06Speaker 1: from him last week? I thought he settled into the game.
- 4:12Speaker 1: You know, didn't get a ton of reps obviously last week.
- 4:15Speaker 1: But this week, you know, in in that in that spot,
- 4:17Speaker 1: getting getting more of the work, you see some some calmness.
- 4:22Speaker 1: Got his work cut out for him obviously with these
- 4:24Speaker 1: with these d tackles that they have and and uh,
- 4:26Speaker 1: but you know he's up for the challenge, he's looking
- 4:29Speaker 1: forward to it, and expect him to play well. And
- 4:33Speaker 1: if Brandon couldn't go, who would then slide in at
- 4:37Speaker 1: the right guard position of Cooper's already at left guard. Well,
- 4:40Speaker 1: we got Blake, you know, Blake Cant's uh could slide
- 4:43Speaker 1: in there easily. I know they have a couple of guys,
- 4:46Speaker 1: but Jalen Carters, it just seemed like he's putting it
- 4:49Speaker 1: all together right now. It's playing good, playing good. You know,
- 4:51Speaker 1: he's big, powerful, comes off the ball. Well. I mean,
- 4:55Speaker 1: that's you can see why they drafted him obviously, you know,
- 4:59Speaker 1: but playing playing extremely well, playing physical. They've got a
- 5:03Speaker 1: lot of guys up front getting pressure and sacks. Does
- 5:05Speaker 1: that make it more of a challenge to prepare for
- 5:08Speaker 1: when there's a wide variety of different types of rushers. Yeah.
- 5:12Speaker 1: Usually usually it's you know, the edge guys or one
- 5:17Speaker 1: guy maybe two. You know, in this case, they've got
- 5:21Speaker 1: a number of guys you know, to your point that
- 5:22Speaker 1: can they can get after the passer, you know, And
- 5:26Speaker 1: and it's a it's a great challenge for our offensive line,
- 5:30Speaker 1: you know. And and but each week, each week is
- 5:33Speaker 1: that way, that's the NFL. Each week you're gonna go
- 5:36Speaker 1: against good, good pass rushers, and and you know, it's
- 5:40Speaker 1: just a matter of just you know, working your technique,
- 5:43Speaker 1: trust in great communication obviously, and and just being physical.
- 5:49Speaker 1: What have you seen from healing through whose has kind
- 5:52Speaker 1: of gotten reacclimated. Yeah, I mean it's good to getting
- 5:55Speaker 1: back out there running around, look at you know, more
- 5:59Speaker 1: on the to look teams, you know. And and he's
- 6:01Speaker 1: done some good things, special teams, stuff like that. It's
- 6:04Speaker 1: good to open his window and get him, get him back.
- 6:06Speaker 1: So still got a couple of weeks and and see
- 6:08Speaker 1: see how it goes, see how progresses. M hm.
