• 0:02
  Speaker 1: It has brought you by the Fanatics Sportsbook at Ocean
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: Gaze University in Atlantic City. Adam Kaplan from Inside the
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: Birds dot Com is here on a Wednesday as the
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: Eagles get ready for the Bears. We're live at ninety
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: nine Bottles at Maynards in Margate and over half the
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: people have already got here and signed in and the
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: weight list is already up over thirty people. So there's
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: a long line on the wait list and we've already
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: got half of the ninety nine people here and still
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: half the show to go, so it's going to be
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: a ruckus loud crowd. What Adam Kaplan takes the stage
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: right now here on the sports fashion We got a
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: lot of injuries here to talk about, Adam, and one
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: major name shows up on the DNP list.
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: How are you good, Michael, I'm glad to talk to yees.
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: So the one that is concerning is DeVante Smith. Now
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: Donus was added to today's injury fort He got hurt
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: in the last game that hit hard. He's got shoulder
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: and chest injury, so if he cannot go, it would
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: be Johan Dotson would start and remembers David Gibson, who's
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: really their punk. Returning just a little bit on offense
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: number eighty seven. He got popped hard, as you know,
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: hard to believe he's going to play. He was seen
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: as a sling after the game. So bottom line is
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: Mike the reblanket ship injury did not turn out to
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: be big. He got some work in today. Their practice
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: is very light, by the way, you don't you can't
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: really practice on a true week, very heavy. And then
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: landon Dickerson with and he's expected to go. Graham's expected
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: to be available. Oh, Dorry Jackson, we should know this,
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: should note this. He's off the injury report. What happened
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: was he had a head injury, but he checked out fine.
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: That's why he was he was saying he was okay.
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: He's actually been removed from the injury report, which really
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: rarely happens. He literally was removed from from it. So
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: he's been clear to play. So that's good. Notes in
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: terms of their depth, I mean, we know that the
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: Queeny on Mitchell it's been a problem, but Jackson will
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: be available to play.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: So Jackson, yeah, I was surprised that. And also surprised
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: a little bit by Reid Blankenship. He was limited today.
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: Saquan also limited, land At Dickerson and Brandon Graham. They
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: are all listed as limited participants for the Eagles. DeVante
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: Smith is the big one. We know, Lane Johnson, Andrew mccoobaugh.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: They will not play in the game. We'll see about
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: Davonte Smith if he is able to go. What is
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: the plan? You see mccooba's on that list, and we
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: see blanket ship. But they're gonna need another safety in
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: this game. And it's a, you know, a pretty important
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: position against a guy like Caleb Williams who runs around,
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: extends plays and you know, quite frankly, I would imagine
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: they're going to take shots down the middle of the
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: field there.
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so it would be Sidney Brown next to Blankenship. Mike,
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: That's that's Sydney Brown will start. Now. They very well
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: might bring up Andre Sam as a as a game
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: day elevation. So Andrew Sam's been there. Look, we know
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: our Andrew, Chuck has gotten to know him. Andrew did
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: a great pot where he this week can get an
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: all pod play. You actually know you we don't. We
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: don't put that on YouTube only put that on pod
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: R Andrew breaks down the safety position. But what I
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: could tell you is Andre Stef's not the biggest guy
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: in the world, very smart football player. This is a
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: guy that he goes have tried to develop a little
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: bit and they've hung on to him. You know that
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: he's he was an untrated preachent of LSU last season.
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: Then Michael Carter's I told you first, Mike, what had
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: happened at the trade. We were told that Michael Carter
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: will be cross training at safety. Fandreo has talked about
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: it a number of times. These are there for safety.
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: So Carter, Uh, just depending on now, no one thing, Mike.
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: Before we moved to the Bears, injuries, the weather, it's
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: going to be winny again. It could be very like
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: the Detroit game. So right now, Mike, depending on how
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: the passing is, if the if the guts, if it's
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: not dusty all the time, and would have actually able
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: to throw the ball. But Paul, particularly Caleb Williamsho you
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: talked about if Jackson doesn't play well, We've got our
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: answer last week. We know that Eugene didn't play well,
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: but it's it's we've been telling you about Ringo for
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: three years now. They have no trust in them other
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: than playing special teams Santa Corey and Bennett. I'd be
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: surprised on a sure week if they would go in
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: this direction. We'll find out now. Again, it depends on
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: how Jackson plays, and he very up and down before
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: he got hurt. Mike, he had some plays that gave
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: up plays as you know, so that it's something to
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: watch in this game for the particularly for those who
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: are going to win, and watch pretty good warm ups
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: because both Williams and Hurts opposite of strong arms they do.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: By the way, some news in the NFL real quick.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: Frank Ragnow, the center from Detroit, has decided he is
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: going to return to the Lions. So he had retired,
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: he had been out all season. He is returning. So
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: there's some big news that happened about ten minutes ago
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: with the Detroit Lions. So a team that is right
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: now on the outside looking in of the playoff mix
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: behind the Chicago Bears team for first place in the
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: NFC North. By the way, how healthy are they coming
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: into the game, And they got some old friends Kevin
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: Byers having a good year leads the league in interceptions
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: and C. J. Gardner Johnson. You know, he's one of
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: their top sackers. He's only been in the get in
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: the system for about two three weeks.
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: It's crazy he had three sacks in two games. It's
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: it's and he's playing nickel. He's really not playing safety.
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: So right, What's what's kind of happened here with the
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: Bears is they most likely will be down four linebackers
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: O K T. J. Edwards, who's missed a number of
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: games from Eagle obviously. Uh, when I look at when
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: I look at my notes here, Tremaine Edmins is on
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: ir their star linebacker is one of the high speed
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: linebackers in the NFL. With a groin injury, Noah sold
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: their back, their top backup linebacker. He missed time with
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: a concussion. Now he's an elbow injury. And Ruber Hippoleet,
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: a fourth round linebacker as a shoulder injury. He hasn't
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: worked Mike. So they're gonna They're gonna go most like
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: they're a forty three front under Dennis Allen. They're leading
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: the NFL and turnovers recorded, they're leading the NFL and
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: plus minus Mike Tall Williams and and the Bears offense
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: only has eight turnovers. So look it to me, Mike,
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: it's it's with the win and it's going to be
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: low forties but very windy. Yeah, it might be another
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: one of those games. Man, if you don't turn it over,
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: it could be could be the field goal kickers Tyro
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: Santos and obviously Jake Elliott will see what happens.
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: We will And obviously the Eagles offense has struggled a lot, Adam,
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: before we get you out of here on this Wednesday edition,
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: we're kind of doing a Friday, Thursday, and Wednesday show
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: all wrapped into one. Is this the kind of defense
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: that you think philad Ulphia you can kind of get
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: their offense going against her. Do you anticipate then struggling
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: against this Bear defense?
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: Well, Mike, I mean the Eagles moved the ball really
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: well in the first half. Jeff and I have talked
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: to a bunch of personal people this week. All but
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: one guy I spoke to like what Eagles did on offense.
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: I don't look there. They moved the ball really well
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: in the first half. You saw how many drives were
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: a shot down because of the penalties, which is ridiculous.
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: That can't happen, Mike, Nick Syrianna's got to do a
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: better job with getting his players to understand how just
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: the discipline of it. They actually had fifteen penalties in
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: that game, fourteen stuck as they won off set, so
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: they had at least three drives were killed by penalties.
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: Last week and the second half Hurtz played fairly well.
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: Listened to the Inside the Tape show with Greg co
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: Sell and I we talked about it. The line was
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: very up and down. Mike. The line has got to
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: protect better that. This is a surprise me. Mike, we
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: know they're unberlocking. That's been really disappointed. One of the
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: worst run blocking lines in the league. They've been mostly good,
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: but this game, as Greg told us on the tape,
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: it wasn't like it wasn't quite what I thought at
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: home watching on TV was not quite as good. To
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: be honest with you. That's why we all twenty two
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: and listen to that show because Greg we spent five
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: minutes explaining the difference between TV copy and coaching tape.
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: I really highly recommend that show, at which Greg and
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: I did this week.
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: Check that out, everybody. It's Inside the tape on the
• 7:43
