  Speaker 1: You're listening to Eagles postgame analysis here at Philadelphia Sports
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: Table podcast show, the longest running weekly Philly sports podcast
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: show in the world. The Philadelphia Eagles losing in the
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: wild Card round to the San Francisco forty nine Ers
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: by a score of twenty three to nineteen. We've seen
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: many of the same themes that we have seen throughout
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: this this season in general. I was gonna say the
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: latter part of the season or halfway, you know, the
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: last half of the season. But we saw the same
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: crap in this game as the Eagles are now booted
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: from the playoffs. I'm Jeff Warren here, my buddy Len Hunsicker.
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: We always get into our themes and then we do grades. Here, Len,
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: I mean, where do you want to start, man, I mean,
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: what a disappointment to the end of this season, But
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: where do you want to start in terms of themes?
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: I mean you you alluded to it. I mean it's
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: the same, It's the same ship every week where you
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: know they just at some point in the game they
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: spend an entire half on offense being colder than Antarctica,
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: and and then friggin I like I muttered the same
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: thing to myself every single week when I watch these
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: guys third and long again, third and long again, third
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: and long again. They spend that This offense spent half
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: their season in third and long. And you you can't
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: win that way. You can't you can't make any kind
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: of championship run that way. And I say the same
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: goddamn thing every week when I watch this team this year,
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: just third and long, like it's never a surprise, and
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: how about sorry, that's no just I I don't know
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: what anybody expected that that has watched this team all
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: the season. I said it to you before before we
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: jumped on here. You know, whether this happened tonight or
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: next week, or if they were lucky enough to make
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: it to the NFC Championship game, this is always going
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: to happen because this is who this team has been
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: all year long.
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: I think we held out hope. I think a lot
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: of us held out hope.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: I think a lot within Eagles Nation thought to themselves,
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: with the talent on this team getting right, quote getting
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: right in the playoffs, it's ridiculous to even think that,
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: because if you're not right before the right exactly there's right.
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: That's not something that happens. Like, you don't just go, oh,
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: we've been we've been goofing around all year. Now here's
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: the magic playbook that you know, we we've saved just
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: for the playoffs. Right, That's not how it works.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: It's just we saw the same stuff. And we saw
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: something else too in this game too that I want
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: to get to offensively as well. But we saw the
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: same ship with play calling. We saw the same ship
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: with the same fucking play design constantly the baffling decisions.
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: And we also saw AJ Brown not coming through. AJ
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: Brown missing catches that he probably would make if it
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: was in the regular scene.
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: That one in the fourth quarter, I mean, it hit
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: him right in the hands, and that is you know,
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: I mean, and I like AJ Brown. I have defended
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: AJ Brown. Oh yeah, you know, people kind of oh,
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: Devo wide receiver, all that stuff. But if you're gonna
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: bitch about wanting the ball, you have to make that
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: That wasn't like the one to DeVante Smith later where
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: he clearly had to go up and you know there
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: was that was that would have been a tough catch
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: to make. This was in stride, hit him in the hands.
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: You have to make that catch as an NFL wide receiver,
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: especially an elite NFL wide receiver. There's literally no excuse
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: you have to make.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: I'm not blaming the entire game on AJ Brown. I'm
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: not blaming the entire offense. I just want to be
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: clear out there, folks. But it's yeah, he's definitely culpable
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: in this loss, for sure. That's why I wanted to
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: bring it up. But something else to another theme when
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: and damn it, we see it, saw it all the time.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: It's like second and twenty because of some shitty penalty
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: that happens right or second and long second and fifteen,
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: second and eighteen.
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: And they're running the ball. Are you that right?
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: There goes to play calling and play design too, the
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: type of runs, to extending the play to the outside
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: when it hasn't been working throughout the game. And yes,
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: it's amazing on second and twenty, it's amazing, you know,
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. Yeah, it's I would expect I would
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: expect as a fan of this team from what we saw.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: And I think with the the pretty I'll say this,
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: the positive direction that this front office and momentum that
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: they've had over these years, this team is the defending
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: Super Bowl champions. They won't be after the Super Bowl,
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: of course, because they are out of the playoffs. But
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: Kevin Petulo has to be gone. I would think he
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: is going to be released at some point.
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: There's no universe in which you can bring him back.
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: I know he's Sirianni's boy. I know he is, But
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: you know what, when you're the head man, you gotta
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: do things you don't like sometimes. Yeah, you got to
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: get rid of one year, buddies. It's got to be
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: done because he has sucked all year.
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: Yep, not not.
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: It wasn't a bad stretch. It wasn't. Oh we took
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: a while to find our footing. It has been all year. Yeah.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: I want to ask you a question because it's something
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: I've thought about a lot over the past couple of
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: weeks here, especially towards.
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: The latter part of the regular season.
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: Why wasn't Kevin Petullo let go of his offensive responsibilities
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: like fired or just let go or demoted like I
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: wonder if this front office, I wonder if the coaching
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: staff in general was sirian he was like, we saw
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: what happened back in twenty twenty three when we let
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: people go and then it was a complete collapse those
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: last six games of the season, and I wonder if
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: that played a part in their brains of Okay, things
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: are not good here. Things are not good, but we
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: are still winning games. The defense is keeping us in
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: these games. If we completely strip this offense of what
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: it has known, it could be another twenty twenty three.
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: Like I've been wondering if that's the reason why they
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: didn't pull the plug on Kevin Patulo earlier this season, it.
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: Would make sense as a as a reason that would
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: at least that would be logic that I guess I
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: could follow. But again, you're not gonna magically, it's not.
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: It's not gonna happen all of a sudden just because
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: it's the playoffs now, like if it hasn't happened all year.
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: So it's a faseistic thing. Either you either you fear that,
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: oh if I do this, everything's gonna unravel, or you're
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: gonna stick with this guy who has giving you nothing
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: all year long. Yeah, and you're going to get nothing.
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: And that's that's what they got. So maybe it's damned
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: if you do damned if you don't. But there's no
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: universe in which this offense was gonna this Kevin Petulo
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: offense was going to start, you know, cranking out big numbers. Absolutely,
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: it was never gonna happen.
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: I just I just find it so incredible that the
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: Eagles very first drive of the game. Fantastic play calling,
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: fantastic play design. I mean, I gotta I actually was
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: thinking to myself, I got to give credit words due
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: to Kevin Botulo in that moment. Also, incredible call on
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: the goal line with that sweep to Dallas Goddard for
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: the touchdown. Incredible, and then there's just nothing. It's just
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: vanilla shit. Right after that, It's like.
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: I don't know if maybe it's a thing where he
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: does something, okay, the the opposing defense, you know, adjusts
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: or counter punches. Yeah, and then he doesn't have a
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: counter to that counter. I I I think he I
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: don't think that he's capable of that, of of coming
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: up with the with the counter to the counter.
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: I don't think that is a tool that's in his
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: coaching toolbox. I don't think it's there because and then
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: and then it stops, you know, then it stops working.
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: And then it's like you see this offense freeze up
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: and it's just like, Okay, we're gonna go We're gonna
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: super conservative, We're gonna we're gonna do two yards in
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: a cloud of dust with Saque.
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: That is a great phrase, freeze up. That is a
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: great phrase, freeze up. Because after the half they go three,
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: uh straight three and outs and I mean we know that.
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: I mean, this is who they have been all season.
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: No team did it more than the Philadelphia Eagles this
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: with more three and outs, especially right after the half,
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: I mean and after Quinnon Mitchell had two interceptions in
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: this game and they got three points off of those
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: interceptions and after a second interception, three plays for negative
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: nine yards.
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, like that, And that's that's that's what winning teams
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: not winning. I mean, the Eagles were a winning team
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: this year, so I'm not I'm not trying to talk
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: about them like they're the Browns or something. But that's
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: what championship teams do, yeah, is oh, you make a mistake,
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: We're gonna make you pay through to do the nose
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: for that. And then the Eagles did not do.
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: That absolutely absolutely yeah.
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: I mean in the first half, Eagles rushing Saquon Barkley
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: had fifteen carries for seventy one yards. Tank Bigsby had
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: three carries for twenty yards. At that point, I'm like, uh,
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: ninety one yards in the first half. I'm like, can
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: they do it in the second half? Like, That's what
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: I just kept saying. That's what I was actually saying
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: to my what can they actually do it in the
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: second half?
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: Nope, not at all.
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: And that's that's the frustrating thing. Like, yeah, I know, okay,
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: the Eagles were without Lane Johnson again, but you know
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: you you you lost to a forty nine ers team
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: that was banged up.
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: And not only were they banged up coming in and game,
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: they lost their all pro tight end during the game. Yeah,
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: and and you lose to that. Yes, I mean that.
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: It's pretty damn it the way when you when you
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: have a team come in and they're banged up and
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: you let that happen, There's there's there's nothing, there's no excuse.
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: There absolutely In another aspect of this, a weakness of
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: the forty nine ers, something that was interesting for me
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: was looking at the way that the forty nine ers
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: coaching staff they were managing the clock, because we know
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: this is a we know this is a Kyle Shanahan thing.
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: It's a narrative with him.
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: Shanahan burned a time out right before the half, and
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: then he trotted out the field goal unit when they
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: probably needed a touchdown before the half at that point
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: in the game, thinking what the heck is going on here?
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: And with that weak Niners defense, especially against the run
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: with Kittle out like you just mentioned, you know, the
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: Niners needed to take advantage of that red zone trip.
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: I mean, in my opinion, and I think a lot
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: of other folks opinion, And it went to show how
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: game management still has been a big issue for Kyle
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: Shanahan even in this game, and the Eagles still could
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: not capitalize on that, especially coming out of the second
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: half with the ball and then subsequently going three straight
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: three and ounce like it's just man's It's the same
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: themes here, frustrating over and over and I have, honestly,
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: I've got like a ton of notes and I don't
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: even know if they're really relevant at this point, because
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: the loss is the loss. Yeah read blank, and Ship
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: completely screwing up his coverage on that chick play in
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: the fourth quarter where Juwan Jennings threw that touchdown to
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey. I mean what I play that was, but
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: man like read blank and ship usually doesn't screw up
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: like it really doesn't, and we saw certain guys just
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: screwing up time, you know, over and over like offensive
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: line once again, another theme that we have talked about,
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: talked about it with our friend Josh Schuster, who's it
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: filled in for you and Eric on these postgame shows.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: There's always one offense of linemen missing an assignment, always
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: every run play.
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: Always that's coaching.
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, there you go.
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: So it's either Statland, who we've revered for years as
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: an offensive line coach, which I doubt, or it's Patolo,
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: whose offense we've been complaining about all season long.
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: Yep.
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: And I think we all know where we're all going
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: with that one. Yeah, yeah, And a question I wanted
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: to ask you. I don't know that this is something
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: that you know, I usually believe in, or if it's
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: something you kind of picked up on maybe during the game,
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: But it just felt like, from a vibe standpoint, the
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: forty nine Ers players were loose, they were woofing it up,
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: they were they were talking shit, yep, all throughout the game,
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: and the kind of Eagles felt maybe more reserved, more tentative,
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: more like more like waiting for something to go wrong. Yes,
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: whereas I feel like the forty nine Ers players were
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: like just playing free and easy and playing with house money.
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: Yes, you're absolutely correct.
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: I thought like this, this situation they were in was
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: kind of like gravy for them this season based on
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: how their season is gone with with Brock Purdy being
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: injured as many weeks as he was, and having Mac
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: Jones having to keep the offensive or to keep the
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: offense on his shoulders. You mentioned just the slew of
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: injuries they had coming into this game. They had an
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: incredibly weak defensive line, and the fact that the Eagles
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: offensive line couldn't do anything in the second half was amazing.
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: The vibes that you.
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: Mentioned were so incredibly prevalent, Like the Eagles didn't have
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: a chip on their shoulder at all in this game.
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: No, not at all. And I'm normally one of those
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: people where like I think vibes are overrated and if
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: you have talent, like, talent should outweigh vibes, especially if
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: you're playing a team that's banged up. Yeah, it should
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: out weigh vibes. And in this game, it didn't like
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: it just felt like it was just two different attitudes
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: coming out out of the tunnel. And it's just and
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: that's the thing, Like, as an Eagles fan, I go
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: through every playoff game just like thinking, you know, oh,
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: the worst is happening, and I know. And so there
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: was a point in the first half where I'm like, Okay,
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: I have this doom and gloom feeling because of the vibes.
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: But that's just me as an Eagles fan watching them
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: play in the playoffs. It's what I always do. Yeah,
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: And it just I don't know, it never shook free
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: of that.
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: Len I.
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: In all honesty, I think there is something to be
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: said for what you just mentioned with the vibes thing.
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: But I really want I'm wondering if you need to
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: turn yourself around on this because if you remember back
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: in twenty seventeen, I mean, the vibes for the Eagles
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: in the postseason before the very first Super Bowl, those
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: were fucking high vibes, like those vibes with the dog
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: masks and just I mean those vibes were incredible and
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: we saw what that team did, in my opinion, a
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: probably lesser talented team than the New England Patriot. It's
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl that year. I mean, we saw
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: what happened there. We see what happens with the vibes here.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: What were the vibes going into the Super Bowl last year?
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: Chiefs and Eagles? I mean, I thought the vibes with
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: the Eagles were incredible. And I'm not just saying that
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: at hindsight. Being twenty twenty, there is something to be
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: said for what you just said about the vibes in
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: this game. I think you need to turn yourself around
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: on the vibes.
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: I as a as a team, you should be able
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: to look around and go all right, but you know things.
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: You know, I get that this other team's coming out hot.
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: But yeah, we got Jalen Hurts, we got Saquon Barkley,
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: we got the Vonta Smith, Vanthey Smith, we got aj Brown,
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: we got you know, Jalen Carter, We got all these guys.
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: How are we gonna like turtle up and you know,
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: and let this other team be so confident when we
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: have all this talent here. Yeah, it shouldn't. I don't know,
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: I don't know how well as an organization you allow
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: yourself to get backed into that yeah, and the Eagles did.
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: They did.
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: And you know what, we should be celebrating something offensively.
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: We should be celebrating something offensively in this game because
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: Saquon Barkley passed Wilbert Montgomery and Brian Westbrook for the
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: most rushing yards in Eagles postseason history. When when Barkley
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: hit the one hundred yard mark, he became the all
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: time rushing leader in the playoffs for the Eagles.
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: I mean, he had four.
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: Hundred ninety nine yards coming in for his postseason rushing.
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: Brian Westbrook held the record at five hundred and ninety
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: one yards. It took him eleven games from two thousand
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: and two to two thousand and nine. Barkley did it
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: in fucking five games. We should be celebrating that. But
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: guess what, it's going to be a forgotten side.
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: I was gonna say, that's cool and all, but I'm
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: sure if you ask Saquon Barkley, now, yeah, he's not
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: gonna get it.
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: Neither will us fans either, nor shall we No. All right, well, buddy,
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: I don't know, do you want to get into any
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: other themes before we take a break and then get
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: to the grading here. I just like again, and then
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: I have a bunch of notes, but I'm not even
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: gonna really go through them because yeah.
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: No, this just sucks.
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know if you want to get into
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: stats or grades.
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: Or we'll do that. Yeah, we'll do some grades. I
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: would say, why don't we go to a break and
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: then we come back get to the grades, and that's
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: where we'll go.
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: Through some of the stats. Then, okay, sound good?
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: All right, well, folks, we're going to take a break here.
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: Let me get this ticker off here at the bottom,
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: and when we come back, we're going to grade this Eagles,
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: this Eagles team by unit. Stick with us, all right,
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: we're back and we're going to grade this Eagles loss
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: here by unit.
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: And again lose.
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: To the San Francisco forty nine ers by a score
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: twenty three to nineteen, again in mnemic Eagles offense that
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: only scored six points in the second half. So if
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: we go through the quarterback, running back the offense, let's
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: do the offense first. Here quarterback here Jalen Hurts twenty
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: of thirty five, one hundred and sixty eight yards. He
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: only averaged four point eight yards per attempt one touchdown.
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: He was only sacked once, but he ended with a
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: rating of seventy nine point two, not one of Jalen
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: hurts His finest games by any stretch of the imagination.
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: I really don't think he was put in the best situations.
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: He certainly missed some wide open guys. Smitty over the
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: middle consistently missed him throughout the game. I'm gonna give
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts a B minus this week. What do you
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: give him here?
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, you know, some of that you can,
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: you can tack onto the play calling. But he was
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: missing guys high, he was missing guys low. I don't
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: think it was a good performance by him at all.
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna go straight up see.
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: See Okay, all right, let's move to the running back
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: position with Saquon Barkley twenty six carries for one hundred
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: and six yards, Tank Bigsby four carries for nineteen yards. Look,
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: the running backs are only as good as their offensive line,
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: and the offensive line to get to them in just
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: a bit here, But I gotta give you know, I
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: gotta give them credit.
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: What do they have here?
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: Hold one hundred and one hundred and sorry, one hundred
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: and twenty.
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: Five yards on the day. Not terrible backs, Yeah, not terrible.
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna give him a B plus. What do you
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: give the running backs?
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I guess I could be talked up
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: in a B plus. I'm just gonna go be uh
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: that's fair. I'm just down in general. But I mean
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: they they were. I mean, if you're looking at people
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: to assign blame too in this game, running backs I
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: think are down near the bottom of absolutely.
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: Let's get to the receiving here.
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: Davante Smith targeted eleven times, came down with eight balls
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: for seventy yards. Dallas Goddard targeted six times, came down
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: with four balls for thirty three yards and a touchdown.
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: You also had AJ Brown targeted seven times, only came
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: down with three balls for twenty five yards. And when
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: you're talking, when you're looking at what the average per
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: reception was here, DeVante Smith averaged eight point eight yards
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: per reception, got it, eight point three yards per reception.
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: AJ Brown eight point three yards per reception. Not good,
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: not good, not good enough.
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it feels like there's no faith in the deep
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: ball with this team. And I don't know how much
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: of that you know because you saw it. I think
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: a little bit maybe with the kicking as well. Maybe,
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: I mean it was it was windy, so I don't
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: know if maybe the weather obviously a windy day will
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: perhaps have an effect on the deep ball and maybe
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: therefore your confidence in throwing the deep ball. But it
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: just feels like this offense doesn't try to stretch the field.
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: Well, exactly what you're talking about. No explosive plays, Yeah,
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: none at all. Yeah, that's something to really take away
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: from this game as well, in terms of the theme
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: that we didn't get to before the break, but that
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: is definitely a theme. No explosive plays and not too
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: many explosive plays this year in general by this team.
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: So I'm gonna give the receivers here after reading off
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: those stats, Len, look, I'm gonna we talked about A. J.
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: Brown missing some catches. Davante missed a couple catches as well.
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna give this crew a B minus
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: this week. What do you give him? Could be a plus?
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: Maybe I think B minus is a pretty fair grade.
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: I mean, Smith, uh, you know, had a decent game,
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: Dallas Goddard. Maybe they should have tried to evolve a
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: more seven targets. Maybe, yeah, maybe he should have gotten
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: more than that, especially if you're you know, if you're
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: afraid to go down the field, maybe utilize him a
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: little bit more. A. J. Brown. Not a good game
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: at all, Darius Cooper at A. I mean, I know,
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: you know, one catch for nine yards, but I mean
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: pretty costly. I think interference, you know, call on a
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: on a big play. We can get into the officiating
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: if you want to. But now, yeah, but yeah, just
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: not not the best day. I think B minus is
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: being generous. But I'll yeah, I guess I'll do.
• 21:59
  Speaker 3: That all right, even like I said, even like C plus,
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: I mean that's.
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: That's yeah, I can be talking to that for sure.
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah, all right.
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: And officiating, no, it's not something of our buddy Josh
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: Schuster says, I'm not gonna blame the officials for Eagles
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: losing games. And you know what, no, I'm not gonna
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: blame the offense.
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: And not when they not when they've done it this.
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: If this was like, all right, if the Eagles had
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: been a high flying offense all year long, yeah, and
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: this game was this game, perhaps you could say, oh,
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: you know, there were some bad calls. There, there were
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: some ticky tack calls there, but this has been the
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: Eagles all year long. Oh so you can't. You can't
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: get the official.
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: Exactly exactly, all right. Offensive line, boy, it's it's always.
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: It's always a tale of two aspects of this line.
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: Pass protection, pretty damn good today, pretty damn good. Run blocking, Yeah, horrendous.
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: I'm just I'm gonna give him a I'm gonna give
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: him a C plus. I'm gonna give him C plus,
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: could be a B minus, maybe B minus for this
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: offensive line, what do you great them?
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: I'll go C plus. And I think maybe I'm letting
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: them off a little easy. I just, you know, Okay,
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: you didn't have Lean Johnson. I'd really hoped he would
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: be back for this game, but you know that it
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: is what it is. I guess he had swelling after,
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: you know, trying, you know, and but I don't know,
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: it feels like just all year like Steen. I don't know, Bowl,
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: by the way, didn't have a great game today, definitely.
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: I mean, maybe they missed mackay back then more than
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: I thought they would. I don't know. Maybe, Yeah, that
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: the line isn't the line from last year. Let's put
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: it that way.
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and I think perhaps too.
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: And I think during the offseason, when there's gonna be
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: a lot of analysis of it, Lenn, I think we're
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: going to see, because I've I've seen it after games
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: as well, that this offensive line is being asked to
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: do certain things that don't necessarily make sense. I saw
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: Landon Dickerson, okay, not blocking anybody and somebody getting through
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: in the A gap somehow, and he just not realizing it.
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: Looked this is Landon Dickerson, one of the best left
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: guards in the entire league, and he's looking like a
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: dope out there, like he has no idea what's going on.
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: And this is a guy who is a Pro Bowl
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: left guard. You can't tell me that there is play
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: design issues going on here where these guys, even after
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: nineteen weeks, are like, Okay, I don't necessarily know if
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: I should be blocking this guy where I need to
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: be in terms of my gap protection. I just it's
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: amazing to me. So anyway, all right, let's move over
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: to the defensive side of the ball.
• 24:40
  Speaker 3: Defensive line.
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: I was quite frankly disappointed with bruck Purdy was sacked
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: once in this game. Len only hit twice, only two
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: quarterback hits in this game, only three tackles for a loss.
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: A bit disappointed with the amount of pressure that the
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: defense didn't actually get because we know with brock Purdy,
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: once he is disrupted in terms of his progressions, he
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: makes mistakes. And we certainly saw that with the one
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: with the one Quinon Mitchell interception.
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: We saw that for sure. And and we didn't.
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: Get a lot of pressure, just a lot of just
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: four guys rushing party. Sometimes it worked, sometimes it really didn't.
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: So I'm gonna give the defensive line this week a bee,
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: just a straight up B.
• 25:26
  Speaker 3: What do you give him?
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: Give them the defensive line A B?
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, actually, you know what, Oh wait a minute, hold on,
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: let me look at that, let me look at this.
• 25:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah, actually, you know what I was.
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: You know what, They're actually gonna get a C minus
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: from me now that I'm thinking about it here, Yeah, yeah,
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: C minus.
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: And look, I know, like he's not a complete statue.
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: He can make some sneaky plays with his legs every now,
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: and he certainly did that a time or two in
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: this game. But you you gotta he's he's the kind
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: of quarterback you have to hit him and hit him
• 26:04
  Speaker 2: and hit him and hit him and get in his
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: head and make make mistakes. And the Eagles did not
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: do that one iota in this game. All right, Like
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: you said, the stats, one sack by Jalen Carter, two
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: quarterback hits all game, and that's it, and that's not
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: going to get it done. D for disappointment for me.
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: Okay, all right, very good, D. I think I was
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: thinking for some reason. I think I was thinking about
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: the linebackers because I'm gonna give the linebackers a B.
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: I think they played rather, you know, decently in this game,
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: as they have been playing throughout the season. I wish
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: Vic Fangio had have blitzed more.
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: Yes, I i'll I think, And not to step on
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: your toes here, no, no, I think the linebackers were
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: maybe more not noticeable than anything. But I think a
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: lot of that I think is due to I'll agree
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: with you there, and I love vic Van, but absolutely
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: his defensive scheming. I don't think he utilized them enough.
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: We are constantly giving Vic Fangio A grades and A
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: plus grades on these postgame shows. It's gonna be interesting
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: to see what we give him, because I'm telling you
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: right now, mine is not going to be anywhere near
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: the A category.
• 27:16
  Speaker 3: This can't at all.
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: I mean, and especially like you said, okay, Russian four
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: aligneman throw a blitz in there. I mean, you know,
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: more often than you did. I mean they did here
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: and there, but it wasn't a lot. It was not enough. Clearly.
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what C minus for the defensive line
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: for me and again linebackers, I'm going to give them.
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: A B What do you give him.
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: B minus? I mean, they were, hands down, for good
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: or bad, the most the least noticeable group on the
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: entire defense to me.
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, Moving to the secondary. God so up
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: and down in this game. But my grade right now
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: is strictly about the amount of explosive plays that the
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: kept the forty nine ers in this game. DeMarcus Robinson with.
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: That, they made him look like a friggin all pre
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: exactly exactly.
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: Juwan Jennings had a forty five yard or just one
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: catch for forty five freaking yards. Christian McCaffrey had that
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: twenty nine yarder. You know, he ended up having two
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: receiving touchdowns in this game. I I'm going to be
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: giving this secondary a C minus. And that is with
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: Quinnon Mitchell having two interceptions in this game. They're getting
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: a defense. Yeah, yeah, yeah, they're going to get a
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: C minus from me.
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: What do you give them? Yeah, I'm gonna agree with that. Great.
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: I could be talked down to a D plus. But yeah,
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: I mean, and maybe part of that is the fact
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: that uh that you know, party had time to do
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: what he wanted to do. Yeah, did not have a
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: ton of pressure. I think, uh, Cooper Degen had a
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: good game after the first series. I think Quinnon Mitchell
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: had had a strong game that first series. He got
• 28:59
  Speaker 2: beat by Robinson bad twice. That sixty one yarder. Yeah,
• 29:02
  Speaker 2: and then he got beat in the end zone, so
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: I mean, it did happen. But after that he recovered nicely,
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: So I thought he was I thought he had a
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: good game after that. But yeah, as a whole, the secondary,
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: I mean, I don't I can't fully blame them for it,
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: because again, the line gave them nothing to work with.
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: But yeah, C minus for me.
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: All right, let's move to some coaching and the each
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: unit itself. Special teams Britain Covey, boy, he had a
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: nice thirty one yard return in the first quarter. I mean,
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: I'm glad they brought him back to do return duties
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: as well. Just kickoff and punt tackling was absolutely exceptional
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: during this game. It really was in general. Braden Man.
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: He had a fifty eight yard punt for God's sake
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: to start the second half after the Eagles offense couldn't
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: do anything. Pin the Niners back at there. I believe
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: the five yard line. Yes, Jake Elliot missed an extra point,
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: but made everything else that he was called on to do.
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: I'm actually gonna give special teams a B plus this week.
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: What do you give them?
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm glad this wasn't like a one point loss,
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: so we would be, you know, sitting there thinking about
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: that missed extra point. Yeah, and I was, you know,
• 30:11
  Speaker 2: I had that thought after that missed extra point. I
• 30:14
  Speaker 2: my first thought was, Oh, this is gonna be one
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: of those games where neither team can trust the kicking
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: game because the wind is just going to be completely
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: out of control. It turned out to not be the case. Uh.
• 30:25
  Speaker 2: Elliot went two for two for field goals. You know. Uh.
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: San Francisco's kicker made the only field goal he attempted,
• 30:32
  Speaker 2: and he missed an extra point as well.
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: But you know.
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: All in all, I agree with everything you said about
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: special teams. They were again gotta if the running backs
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: were the least of the problems, the special teams is
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: the next least of the problems.
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: All Right, I'll go, I'll go be plus plus. Also,
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: all right, let's move to to defense. Vic Fangio, I
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: don't I'm not sure if we've given or if I
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: have given vic Fangio all season this grade. But based
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: on everything we said with regard to the defensive line
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: and specifically the secondary, the lack of enough of a blitz,
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: in my opinion, I'm giving vic Fangio a straight up
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: C in this game.
• 31:11
  Speaker 3: What do you give him?
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: I mean it's hard because I mean, twenty three points
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: isn't a lot of points, right that. It's not like
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: San Francisco came in here and hung thirty three on
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: them or something like that. Right, twenty three is not
• 31:30
  Speaker 2: an outlantis number of points. You should be able to
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: score more than twenty three points at home.
• 31:36
  Speaker 3: That is true.
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: Ye, So I can't put all of it. But yeah,
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: lackluster again, we're gonna I think, remember, this game is
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: like that. He should have blitzed more. It wasn't aggressive
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: enough in my mind, defensively, I'll go see minus.
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: I do wonder too, how tired the guys were, you
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: know what I mean in the second quarter of the defense,
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: I mean your professional ballplayers. But it's still I mean
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: when the offense is doing nothing.
• 32:04
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And that's the thing. Yeah, like, as as things
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: continue to happen in the game and your your offense
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: is consistently going three and out, that is that is
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: something to consider. And since we're on the subject, I mean,
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: if you look at the game though, time of possession
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: Eagles thirty five minutes and thirty nine seconds. There you go,
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: San Francisco only twenty four minutes and twenty one seconds.
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: So it's not like the uh the Niners played ground
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: and pound and held the ball for forty minutes of
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: the game. Yeah, that didn't happen.
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: Oh and by the way, let's let's talk not talk
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: about but just mention real quick. From a penalty perspective,
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: the Eagles had seven penalties in this game for forty
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: eight yards to the forty nine ers one penalty for
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: fifteen yards. That's I mean seven penalties unacceptable, I mean.
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: Completely unacceptable and I'm not gonna, you know, be the
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: Eagles fan that does sour grapes with with the with
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: the reps and all. There were a couple that it
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: was like, really here going to call that? Yeah, but
• 33:05
  Speaker 2: you know that's not why the Eagles lost. It exactly
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: lost this game of their own accord in.
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: Terms of yards per play. In terms of yards per play,
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: the forty nine ers six point two yards per play,
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: Eagles four point three yards per play. Whoever wins yards
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: per play usually wins the game. So yep, Nick Sirianni
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: Kevin Patulo. Hopefully the last grade that I ever give
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: Kevin Patulo, I'm gonna give them a D. Gonna give
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: him a D for the offense in the way that
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: it performed. Honestly, I don't care about the first half.
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: I mean I do, but I don't.
• 33:36
  Speaker 3: You know what I mean.
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: It's like I care, but I don't care. It was
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: great to see that opening drive and what the team
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: was able to do, great play calling, great play design.
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: Then it went nowhere. Then it went nowhere as it
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: does every week. Hopefully, Kevin Petulo, this will be his
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: last game and he's getting a D from me as
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: well as Nick Sirianni.
• 33:53
  Speaker 3: So what do you give them?
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: Well, I gave the defensive line a D for disappointment.
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: I am going to give the offensive play calling an
• 34:03
  Speaker 2: F four fired because that's what Kevin Petolo should be.
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: I'm not saying Sirianni because and you are going to
• 34:10
  Speaker 2: hear people say that, and they are clinically insane, you
• 34:13
  Speaker 2: know when you when you look at Newark Sirianni's track record.
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: But Kevin Petullo, on the other hand, yes, fired. If
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: you're if you want to look at game stats again
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: that were that just jump off the page at me. H,
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: third down efficiency five for sixteen and the reason they're
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: five for sixteen is because it's not third and two.
• 34:34
  Speaker 2: It's third and eight or third and ten ninety percent
• 34:37
  Speaker 2: of the time with this team. And that honestly, if
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: I don't even know if I've made this this comment already,
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: I feel like I have at one point, But if
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: the Eagles do a team video for this season, it
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: should be entitled third and long because that is that
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: is their season.
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: It is that's the theme of this season. What a
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: great way to sum it up when yeah, we're gonna
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: have you on these Eagles postgame shows more in the future. Huh,
• 35:04
