Be down 101 how you doing big sales. Appreciate you coming aboard on the day. We start week four of the National Football League. Steelers and Browns tonight. Eagles and Rams on Sunday. By the way, 105 game. Yeah. Okay. Um, how's that not a primo game? Heading into this weekend. I think that's the game of the weekend. In my opinion, that's the game of the weekend going into this weekend here. Even my boy Stevie says that this thing bad puppy game is going to be the game of the week. And I think because again, you got two teams that have a lot to prove. That's this. The Eagles getting their door knobs blown off on Monday. And the Rams losing a lead to the Broncos.

Let's go say a lot, man. No question about it. I see my boy Philly 500 has jumped the board with us and Philly 500. I've got to tell you this ain't really Philly 500 here. So we'll go here. Here's my boy right here. This is the guy. Here's, oh, this ain't the guy. This guy. These are those perpetrators like LJ. Let me say this to you too. So we had a little conversation back and forth with your boy, Seth joiner. And obviously Seth walked it back when I called them out on it. And you know, he ended up blocking me, which I don't give a ship in some of those guys over at WIP don't have the canola's to question them on his so called bullshit source that someone in the building told Seth that Nick Suryani is getting in the way of Sean Manion. It's Nick Suryani's team. I'm in no way a Nick Suryani guy. But that's irrelevant. And Seth knows that that's his team. That guy wants to walk into a fucking special teams meeting. That guy wants to walk into a defensive meeting. He has every right.

Every single right to walk into that meeting because it's his team. And if you don't like it, fire his ass. Fire his ass. If you don't like it. Call Seth and I go, no, I never said you go and you're being disingenuous when you're taking a sound clip of mine and saying I said it's someone in the building. And I basically said, who'd you hear it from? A guy buying a fucking Slurpee at Wawa. Well, who is it? And it's my your source. Nobody told them that you made that up. It's a complete lie. And he walked it back and then he ended up blocking me. I don't care. I'm not in this thing to make friends. That's not my role here is to be friends with people in the media. I could give a shit about that. When you start caring who your friends with in the media, you'll never be able to do your job correctly. I got one job. You know what that is? My viewers.

The people who listen and watch me outside of that. I don't care. That's my number one job. Okay. Is to be a guy who's genuine. Hey, when you got to start worrying about your brand, that's when you know you're not talking to somebody that's genuine. Don't worry about my brand. I worry about being honest and being genuine. I might be wrong. Okay. I might be wrong. But at the end of the day, I'll be genuine with it. Sills what's up, bro? Glad to be back. Philly's playoff baseball is mental torture. I think we got him with tonight. Agreed Rams Eagles should be a nationally televised game. Well, it is, but I mean you know what I mean? Yeah, you're right. The primo games. You know what I'm saying? Hey, man. Hey, dude, I don't mind people being entertaining. I'm not saying that.

Okay, I'm not saying that. But for me, at least be genuine with your people you're talking to. It's so irrelevant. That's the problem. How can you say Eagles have a problem but refuse to accept the reason? Man, you was hired to run an offense and Nick should shut the fuck up. It's not that hard, Sills, to be honest. You got damn right. It's not Marshall. It's his fucking team. If I want to put that coach over there and put that coach over there or put that coach over there or put that coach over there. It's my team. I get to do what I want. The offense coordinator can be a second dude guy. Are you under the impression that a guy who's never called plays? And a guy who's really never been a position coach in his entire life should have autonomy over the offense based on what? He's an experience? Marshall, what Marshall will tell you this? Get out of the way Nick for a guy who's never done shit.

Sills, but Nick hired him. I told you if you don't like what Nick's doing, fire his ass. Fire him. If you think what Nick is done, fire him. Then why the fuck was manning hired then? Fire Nick. Nick can't run a fucking offense, bro. Fire him. I've been telling you that for five years. Fire him. Thank you, Swav. Then fire him. If you don't like the way that coach runs his team, fire him. He's 52 and 19 with two NFC championships in a Super Bowl. Fire him.

Fire him. I would strip Nick of all say in the offense. You're going to tell what NFL head football coach has ever been stripped of any responsibilities on his team? The answer none. Where do you guys come off thinking that position coaches have more autonomy than a head coach in that in a football? Where did you get that from? You think because you hire a coordinator or a online coach or what have you? Nick Sireon, he fired Jeff Stoutlin because Jeff Stoutlin thought he was bigger than the coach. He got fired for it. Or some of you guys because you need softer approaches was shown the door. You guys have it wrong. That's Nick Sireon's team. Now look at this. You got me defending him.

So it's my problem with taking a online guy next year. Most of the guys are left tackles. You can trade back at a running back and then get a garden in the early second round. Hey Kyle, I think you need to start putting premium picks in the first round. Some of those offensive linemen. Okay. Here. Look at this. I agree. But like I said, ask you yesterday as a fan. What the hell can I do, bro? I'm stuck in. Yes. Yes. March. Yes. Hey, March. I think the guys at Dornaub. I think he's a door man. You heard me say this. And if you don't think that guy should be doing the things that he's doing, fire him. Get this. No shit. Sills talking to us like we own the team. What?

Are you talking about so you bring shit up. You have no control over as a conversation piece. You're wasting your time. Fucking numb nuts. This guy's talking about putting the head coach in a box somewhere in the offense. We have no control over that. No shit. Why bring it up then? Sills, we need a trade for either baits from Atlanta or boot a baker from Arizona. We need a veteran safety. Okay. Oh, who you giving up for that? Sills, I don't see Nick with a play card. Hard to call plays without one. I agree. I agree. I don't think Nick's calling plays. I think Nick is influencing plays. Okay. Hey, by the way. See this only stupid ass roaches in this chat want to fire Nick. Hey, man. Nobody said fire. I don't want to fire. I told you you don't like the way he does business. Fire is ass. I did say fire.

This is on you fuckers. You're the ones talking shit about him. I'm not even talking to Rayas really. Okay, you literally shouted it. I said, listen what I said. I'll do it again for you because this guy stupid as a rock. If you don't like the way Nick, Sireon, he runs his team, fire him. It's his team. It's exactly what we said. Rayas, dumb with you guy. You're knee dragging and you're ankle dragging and you're hand dragging, asking kissing of the Eagles is obnoxious. We as fans, well, most of us intelligent ones want him fired. So what can we do sells nothing. You've got to wait for him to get a losing record. You got to wait for him to lose. The only way Nick Sireon gets fired is if this implodes.

But this notion that, hey, a head football coach, there's nobody in NFL history that's been a head coach that the owner said shut the hell up and go sit over there except one place. And that's Dallas. Dallas is the only place that that exists. Hey, I'm the owner. I'm the GM. I run the team. The head coach, you go sit over there on a step stool. All my cowboy friends that are in here. You guys know this as well as anybody. And you know this. The reason that the Dallas Cowboys have not won significantly in 30 years is because Jerry Jones is the reason and the primary reason why they don't win. He's the number one reason why don't the Cowboys when playoff games is a DAC. No, it's Jerry.

So we miss on draft picks. Is it your GM? Oh, wait, yeah, it is. Well, wait, the owners of GM. The Mazzie, those guys and those draft picks. I told you on draft day about Mazzie Smith. Is that his name? Shit, I've already forgotten. The guy was the fifth round draft choice at best. Hey, cells, how you doing, my friend? My birthday's tomorrow. Is this going to be the biggest collapse upcoming since Suryon is become head coach? It's not going to be a collapse because it's for me expected. It's only a matter of time. It's only a matter of time. You don't have the talent that you once had. You know, you got guys that and we appreciate every one of you, man.

That come in here and come to the show every day. I can't thank you guys enough. Okay. I can't tell you enough how we appreciate it. But I've said it since day one, it was a matter of time. You don't have the same talent and you have lesser coaching. You get rid of Jeff Stoutland. You get a new unproven coordinator. You hire a guy like we said yesterday, that was the past game coordinator who got fired in Tampa. You've absolutely gone backwards in every realm on offense. This notion too that you're going to get healthier and better in the old line by the end of the year is ridiculous. Okay. Sure.

Is it safe to say the Eagles are entering cap hell a dead cap hit this year so bad the Eagles can't afford to upgrade or even pay a quarterback 60 million. That means people have to go. Well, if that's our only option, I'm with you sales. I'm praying a huge collapse less than eight and nine and no playoffs. I had enough of a sorry, I need bro. I'm not spending another dime. Hey, Marsh. Listen, man. You're in the position because Nick Cereyani doesn't have answers. You know who has the answers? How we? Nick is bennoodered to not have answers. His problem solving is front office based.

Nick Cereyani is a neutered coach because the front office tries neutering all of their coaches. You know, I think it's really wild on the offensive side of the football. How limited of years you have with guys that are in the organization. You know, there's nobody on offense based and get this. There's nobody on that offense that has more than four years experience. As an offensive guy in that building as an equal coach. Almost your entire offensive coaching staff is brand new. Damn, which Wizard of Oz character should Cereyani be for Halloween? The 10 man no heart. The lion, no courage or the scarecrow. I think the scarecrow.

Just we love you. To but stop with sweat nothings talk and if Eagles happen to win does that change things since liars month is over much respect. Daff. Stop sweating things must sweat and anything. Passionate guy about sports. I sure what you're talking about brother, but I appreciate you man. Truckers love sills are D.O. line are not good. I think the D lines not playing good. I think the old lines not good. Cereyani are sales. What do you mean by Cereyani has influence on play calls? What exactly does he do on gang day? Well, I would say this to you, Devon. You've got a guy up in the booth. He calls the play situationally. It comes. Nick Nick has. Here's how the headsets work. Okay. There's a there's an offensive lever.

A defensive lever. Could put it in the middle and hear everything. My guess is that Nick when he's on offense. Nick has got the offensive. Obviously. Click to the right. Click it to the right. That's his offense. Manion comes down and manion. Throws a play in the jail and hurts his ear. He's got to be in the jail. These guys are communicating. Nick hears it. Nick will throw his influence in and go, hey guys, it's third and nine. Don't forget they like the blitz. Or they they like to bring the safety over the top. Or what they'll do is they they're playing different coverages. And when you hear so many people inside the headsets. Almost sudden 25 second clock is ticking down. And then they're going to call the fucking player. And that's where I think with all the chefs in the kitchen. That there's a lack of communication.

Jalen addressed that today or was it yesterday when he spoke to the media. He addressed that. It's not a clean operation right now. No matter what's on manualized to you and tells you. And no matter what. They put out there in front of you. And when you hear someone hurts, was telling you. When he was at the podium that it's not a clean operation right now. I think you got to get everybody on the same page. And I don't think everybody is well go over what Jalen said. Why after three weeks is our D walking. Two make tackles. Everyone looks lazy has the NFL caught Vic and modern football. Can we get Dom to remove Nick Tyler? Here's what's happening with your defense. It's all starting with your tackles. Your tackles are not being dominant. They're not dominating the front.

So get this. This is a domino effect. How many people think your linebackers are playing well? I don't. How many people think your safeties are playing well? I don't. It's the heart of the defense. The two tackles aren't playing well. The linebackers aren't playing well. And the safeties aren't playing well. And it's affecting the middle of the zone. That's why your defense is getting yards put on them. That's why again, and get this. That's why you're giving up in your 25th against the run. Teams don't really have to throw the ball on you anymore. It can run the ball down your throat. And when you get a great play call, they're like Ben Johnson. As I told you and I've been saying it last two weeks, Ben Johnson was telling you the same thing I've been telling you. Okay, you ready? You ready? Hey, it's a matter of time.

It's a matter of time. Eagles 2023 collapses in coming guaranteed. Philly still stinks. That's a fuck control. We need to let Xander know and boot the rass. It's jail is fault for being held up in the tent. No, it's not. It's the NFL's fault. He fake being hurt laying down five seconds after he got hit. He's a chump. What? You think getting your ass? Yeah, well, I'm not gonna, I'm not gonna question Jalen Hertz. I'm getting hit. I'll question Jalen Hertz's decision making throwing across the middle of the field. But I'm not questioning Jalen Hertz's toughness. There will be one thing on my show that you will never ever hear me ever say. Okay, you will never ever hear me say.

I'm questioning Jalen Hertz's toughness. That ain't happening. Just you have to read better. I was joking with you. Being soft and appreciated us. Being here, we'd rather have that. No nonsense. Sills all fun, brother. Thank you, dad. I appreciate you and love you. You're right, man. I'm horrible at it. And I appreciate you guys. Hey, with some being genuine. An unsouthish. Why shouldn't it never let Milton Williams? Oh, we should never have let Milton Williams or Joshua go. That falls on the front office. Joe, you thought your priority was gonna be Carter and Davis. Cause how we drive, remember, Joe, Joe. But how he roseman drafts a first round pick. They're playing whether they suck or not.

I think legit scarecrow could be more beneficial. Let's see. Every team in the NFC East loses Sunday. Let me get to the topics. I'm. There is no way in hell I am picking the Eagles to beat the Rams on Sunday. I just don't know by how much yet. I'm in a position right now. I just don't know by how much they're going to win. Cause I've got to add in the conservative. Shaw McVeigh play calling. Not anything you're going to do. But I've got to add that in. So it's after the game to the coaches come down out of the booth or to the locker room. Does Nick own the locker room too, because someone needs to chew the defense's ass at half time. And after I don't think they do any of that.

But during half time they do come down. They come out of the box. They go down and they address the team or their group quarterback. Oh, offense. A coordinator will get up there. He'll be in there. All the coaches come out of the booth. Yes, and go down the locker room. Yes. And after the game too. She'll say we implode you to Kaui would eat, crow and bring stout back. Depends with the new head coaches. I expect the defense to get better, but the offense on the other hand. I'm with you. I think the defense may get better. Okay, I do. I'm going to drive for the next hour, big sales can't type, but I'm listening.

Let's see here. That defense is not getting better. Um, it's all going to come down to those two defensive tackles. By the way, Cowboys make a move for Joey Porter, junior last night late. That's a good sign. That'll improve their football team. They need an ed rusher, but that helps their football team. Tray might defense is young and still finding her way. The smiegel's thought they had a top five defense and you are nowhere close to that. If you keep playing like you did against Keenum. I think Vegas wants more money. That's why Puka is playing with the amix gold card earned four times points at restaurants and enjoy every night out to the fullest. Apply today at American Express dot com.

Okay, not, not, not terrible. So here. How do you feel about this matchup? Aaron Donald. Kobe Turner. Puna Ford. Brandon Fisk. Against the Eagle O line. This is the best group they'll play this year. Simmons is the best player. The Rams have the best front. Versed out O line. I got the Rams dominating that line. They're good all the way across the board, even without miles, Garrett.

And by the way, we're going to find out how good your boy Drew Kendall is. He's finally going to have a nose on him. And he's going to have Puna Ford on him. Who's one of the best runstoppers in football. So we're going to find out how good he is. He's been uncovered pretty much the entire time that he started. Well, now he's got a guy on his grill. And now you've got a legitimate nose tackle. That's going to be playing against the guy. And now we're going to find out a little bit more. I mean, this is the best Kobe Turner. I want to show you something here about Kobe Turner. How many people believe that jailing Carter is better than Kobe Turner? I think they got this guy in the third round. Fourth round from Wake Forest.

How many guys think Carter's better than this guy? What do you think? What do you think? How many people think that Carter's better than Kobe Turner? Okay, how many? Let me see. What's Kobe Turner having sex as a DT? He's got 9, 8, 7, 8, 10 and 10 for tackles for losses. Hit son to quarterback, 16, 13, 14. Let's take a look at jailing Carter in his first three years. Jalen Carter. By the way, this guy don't even make near the money of $38 million. See what Carter does. Carter has in his career. Six, four and three.

Six, four and three and sacks. Okay. TFL's 8, 12 and five. By the way, Gooseg so far, he's got one sack, excuse me. Guy out, 8 out played Kobe Turner. He may be more talented, Carter than Turner. Turner plays every down. Carter doesn't play, doesn't even play, doesn't he? I never hear his name during a game. Hey, by the way, you see this here, same number of sacks this year at last I checked. One guy makes $38. Let's see what Kobe Turner makes this year. How much money does Kobe Turner make? Kobe Turner, salary, Kobe Turner,

salary, 2026. How much is he making? $3 million bucks. Kobe Turner makes $3 million. And Reyes's boy makes $38 million. Same number of sacks this year at last I checked. It's quite a return on your investment kid. Smitty did not practice today hamstring. Seems to be a lingering hamstring since training camp. Hey, how about this? Kobe Turner makes $3 million bucks. It was drafted like in the fourth or fifth round. And this guy makes $38 and they got the same numbers. Huh. Seals we need communication on defense. Nobody's talking during play's recommitted e-blue. The coverage not knowing it was man.

So did Vixay that today too. Carter benefited from Milton and Phillips. He doesn't have that anymore. After getting that money he shows no willingness to work. Change that work ethic. That isn't funny. I made that comment to you. You know what everyone said? Milton Williams. And Jalen Phillips. Benefitted playing next to Carter. That's the case. That's not the case. That's not the case. That's not reality. This is the best group. And best defensive wine. The Eagles will play. This year. Yeah. This is the best group. By the way, let me take a look at some. I haven't looked at this. He may not have had anything here, but let me see. Let's see where he is right now. So so far.

He's got no sacks. He's got five hurries. Three quarterback hits. A 40% quarterback. Russ rate. Not bad. Not not not not super great. Let me see in sacks. How many would he what's he gotten sacks here? Oh, he's got two sacks. He's got two sacks. And Bernard has 18 reps. So far. Carolina's winning that. Sales. Turner drafted third round. On the fourth year of a con. Ricky contract. Wow. And the Rams didn't extend them. Interesting. Get this. Here's Frank. Is it Carter playing with a broken rest?

I mean, that does go into account. Shoulder injury a year ago. Broken rest this year, Frank. Man. Guys, the Dallas gotter of detacles. Man. You're right. Gotta take injuries into account. Right in the Kobe. I don't know why we're blaming the defense. They are out on the field every game for almost 40 minutes because the Eagle offense has so many three and outs. Paul. Great point. Do you think chip manions offense this year? With all the three and outs? Is basically wearing out a team and a defensive group? That was worn out a year ago by Kevin Patula. Do you?

Do you think? Last year with Kevin Patula had all three and outs. And then this year. With all these three and outs. You're seeing the defense. You're seeing the defense wearing out. And it's catching up with them. Do you? Those players are good players on defense. And by the way, Zach Bond is in concussion protocol. Boy, you better hope that guy plays. On Sunday. Or this might be another massacre. I mean. Campbell and. Trotter.

Are going to defend. The ramps. Let me see what the points bread is in that game right now. What's the point spread? In this game coming up with Rams. Rams favored by three 43 and a half. Wow. Bond does a play you watch that number go to five and a half. The middle of the field looking juicy for Stafford. I just look the Eagles aren't leading the league. They are seventh and three and outs.

Hey, hey, Crowley. Let's, let's, let's take a look at Crowley's. Take care on his three and outs. She's for shits and giggles here. So let's go back here and go to week three. I want to, I want to make a point to all of you guys on the chip manion offense. And I'm going to make this point to you. And if I miss any supers. Guys, let me know. So here's the bears. And let's go to the last three games. So here's the third quarter and fourth quarter. Place. Yards. And let's add it up. So in the third quarter, three plays. Three plays. Six. Three plays. Nine. Five plays. That's 14. I mean, you have in the fourth, you only have six plays. You have 20 plays.

In the second half. How many yards did you get in that second half? Five yards. Minus two. So it's three. Four. So it's seven. Twenty four. Thirty one. And twenty one. You have 52 yards. Twenty plays. And how many three and outs? One, two, three, four. Four, three and outs. And how many series? One, two, three, four, five. Four, three and outs. On five series. Is that a trend? I'll show you what a trend is. Let's go to week two and see how that played out. For the Eagles against Titans. Okay, here. So here's the play chart. Let's take a look at this. Let's take a look at a third quarter. Third quarter. Three plays.

Seven plays. Ten. 13. Third quarter. Fourth, you had eleven. It's twenty four. And nine. You had thirty four plays. How many yards did you have in the second half? Minus thirteen. Three because you had sixteen, so you had three yards. Then you had two. So in third quarter you had five yards. Then you had thirty six. That's forty one. and you had 65 on that drive to win the game. Nine. 34 plays, 109 yards in a second half. How many three and outs? One, two, three, out of six series. So in the two previous games, 20 plays, 52 yards, 34 plays, 101 yards. Let's go back another week. See if this is now becoming a trend.

And go here. What was it? The Eagles versus the commanders game. Here we go. Let's go to the commanders game. Commander's game, week one. There we go. Week one. How did the Eagles do in the second half of this game? Play chart. There we go. Third quarter. Third quarter. Three and out. Three plays. Six, three plays. Eight yards. Three plays. Four yards. Three plays minus six. Six yards in the third quarter. Then you had eight plays for 74. That comes out to 80.

And then two plays for minus two. So you have 78 yards on how many plays? Eight, 10, 18 plays. So here's your second half, my friends. Here's your second half. 20 plays, 52 yards. 34 plays, 106 yards. 18 plays, 78 yards. So far this year. I think that play in that offense is doing in the second half coming out of timeouts. How do you think that works? You're in the Trojus second half team. No, Pelt is first. Bond needs to get healthy. Okay. So Bobo was never held to under 10 points last year. Is Manin in over his head and does any more time after Liars month?

Listen, I guess, yeah. I don't know who he is. Liars month. How can it be Liars month for a guy's never done shit? So is that think we're going to be two or three. One five by the end of the month. It ain't looking pretty. Next survives the year if that does next survive the year if that happens. I don't know. I don't know. Look at your second half. Here, let me, let me, look at this. 20 for 52. 34 for 106. That's 54. One at 858 and then 18 for 78. 72 plays for 236 total yards in the second half in three games.

And a boatload of three and outs. Get this 72 plays in three games in the second half. What's that got to do with Liars month? Hey, dude, Liars month are the Rams. Liars month with you. You should be on three. What's over under on Lemons bubble screen? I'll take any of, I'm taking any over. Though will be a bubble screen. Mixed ham prints all over this offense. Then fire them. I can't tell you enough if you don't like it, fire the coach. It'd be hard press to fire a guy 52 and 19. How are you going to walk into a building and look at Nick Cereani and fire a guy who's 52 and 19?

Because why Nick gets in the way of his coaches. It's his job to. And if you don't like it, hire a play calling head coach. It's not that simple, but hire a play calling head coach. You guys want Nick to be the head coach, some of you. And you wanted to get the hell out of the way. I've always asked this question. What's his job? Now you want to do the most important thing that I've been telling you. What does Nick Cereani do? Now what you guys want him to do is totally nothing. You guys want Nick to go sit in the corner, be the head coach and have no autonomy over his own team. Yeah, hey, Zander, you have no say over Jacob anymore. Go sit in the fucking corner and the.

That ain't happening. Hey, go sit in the corner and like, you know, dude, if you don't like it, fire them. Seals correct me. Didn't you make a prediction a couple of years ago saying Frank right would replace Cereani? I did. I did. That would be your next head football coach. Would be Frank right. Yes. That would be your play calling head football coach. Yes, I did make that prediction. Hey, let's take a look at something here. Yeah, I want a super bowl as the offensive coordinator in your building. Freak right.

Hey, by the way, Frank right in the end looks like he's right on Bryce Young. He was right. Frank right was right to draft Bryce Young. Okay, he was right. He was right to hire him. And he was right to draft them. So let's see Indianapolis. Frank was 40 and 33. Ten and six, seven and nine, 11 and five, nine and eight. Seven and nine, 11 and five, nine and eight. And of course, Carolina's a shit was a shit show. And he lasted one year there. His overall record, I believe as a head football coach.

Is 41 and 43 as a head football coach. In Indianapolis and Carolina. By the way, Shane Sykes not doing any better. And plus remember what he did. This was after the Andrew Luck era. The problem with the offense is Sireonnie. It's always been 10 fire him. I know, I know what you're saying. He gets it on his hands and like coordinators do what they were hired to do. That's not going to happen. You know why? The reason why Nick Sireonnie is involved in the offense? Because the front office involved in the offense. If you're a general manager has a say on who plays on Sunday? Your head coach doesn't have autonomy of who should be playing versus who should not be playing.

So is that a common theme in the NFL? A little bit. But you're not going to tell Kyle Shanahan who to play and who not to play. You're not going to tell any read who to play and not play. You're not going to tell any read who to play and not to play. You're not by the way, I think a little bit of that gets in the way of the ramps. Dude, isn't it funny? On one side of the ball, Vic Fangio has almost completed autonomy over there, except for the personnel. And I think that bugs him. Get this bro. What? Get this bro. What? That what GM does. Google it. No. Howie Roseman knows nothing about game planning against the ramps. Google it. Howie Roseman has no clue how to be. Right.

Do you think that howie Roseman knows more football than Vic, Clint Hurt, Sean Manion? Do you think howie Roseman knows more football than those position coaches? Like Jeff Stoutland? Watch this guys. I'll show you intelligence here. Game. GM's don't game plan idiot. Yes, they do. You know how they game plan? If they give you the personnel to play with, it forces you to game plan with the players they put on the field. Once again, that guy has no idea what he's talking about. If I clear and give you this group of men, it's automatically going to shuffle who you're going to use in personnel groupings. Hey, I'll play in Drew Kendall over, Cam Jorgens, in hell you are. Okay, the hell you are.

I'm going to pay a three, I'm going to pay a million dollar guy to play center. And I'm going to bench a 20 million dollar guy. Hey, that'll be the first sign that Nick is going to be fired. If you don't think the economics don't play a factor in this thing, you're dumb. You have no idea what that means. If you don't think the economics don't play a factor in this thing, you're dumb. You have no idea. Get this. How he goes to Nick and says, here's the guys that are going to be active on Sunday. Nick's got to build a game plan with the analytics people from the kid in his department. How he gives them who to play. And that's how you build your game plan. The analytics people tell you the statistics on what it's going to play and how to beat the ramps.

That's front office. The general managers office and the analytics department have more say in game day approach. Then what you think and filly. Where do you think they get all the intel from? It's an analytics organization. Nick has said it a thousand times. You get the analytics from the owner's kid. You get the roster from how he and you build a game plan on that. How is that not front office? Setting the deck on how you prepare for a team on Sunday. I've heard vixay numerous times. Yeah, I use it as a tool, but that doesn't dictate my game plan. That's why no established OC wants to coach for us. It's that meddling GM how he rose been over paid CPA stick to the books instead of a game day rosters.

Hey, and by the way, Collin, when the roster is not as good. The front office gets a little bit exposed for their lack of football knowledge. Just take a look at a game plan you had on Sunday or excuse me Monday. Look at that game plan with lesser talent. It was exposed. Ben Johnson in the Bears ran circles around it because you know why Ben Johnson has situational play calling and understands in game play calling. And so does Dennis Allen. They ran circles around the analytics department on Monday. Hey, we should do this. Nick is looking at fourth and one in all of a sudden Nick is getting nervous. He doesn't go for an on fourth and one. He gets conservative. Why? Because he doesn't trust the roster. And it's when does it Nick? Seriani go for it on fourth one. Fourth and one. You know why it is go for it on fourth and one. You don't believe in what he's doing. That was never a problem before. Now it is why to lesser roster lesser coaches.

More inexperienced people and that's what put Nick in a box. Seriani completely got embarrassed. And the front office has a lot to do with that. And so Nick Frank, Frank, right on this program. Okay. Get this here. Look. I'm going to show you this. This is why this guy is also another guy that's in fucking La La land. And every time he says something, it's just obnoxious and it's dumb. So how he runs the offense because that's not what I said. It's the same players from the first two weeks so we could get this. So when you get your analytics package from the front office for the coaches to put a game plan together. That's based off of film work that the analytics people do. They put percentages of what plays. I know this. I've been in this. And I've seen it and I've been in. I've been in game plan preparation.

They take it from the analytics department. And then Rosemond gives you who's going to play on Sunday. And Nick's got a build substitution packages based on who's going to be eligible to play. It's called setting the deck. They don't have free reign on who they're going to pick to play on Sunday. They just don't. Carter's contract going down as the word. No, no, no. He's a splash kid. And a guy that doesn't have heart to be in every down player. I think it's more about desire to want to be in every down player. That's why Doug Peterson was a hell of a coach. Right. Let me tell you something too, Collin. Filly, Filly. It's not an analytics play. It's a meat and potatoes gut play. They don't like that. Remember something. As I said, the majority of the people in the analytics department in Philadelphia

have been there 17 or 18 years. There's no offensive coaches that have been there more than two years right now. And really no coach in the offensive side has ever been longer than two years. Because they change them out. Get hired other places and change everyone out. There's a reason they believe in their process. They're hiring and firing practices. Prove my point. Who's the longest tenured coach on the offense right now? The wide receiver coach? Okay. Who else? And let's not forget something. You were 11 and six. And you won the division title. And you were in the playoffs. Wasn't like you stunk. You blew the whole thing up. Why? Well, they wanted a different approach. Who wanted a different approach? The coach? Any coach would bend over to be 11 and six. And that's your floor.

Not in Filly. Because they want more because they think that roster is better than it is. Like Prince, Prince thinks this roster is better than it is. It's not. Well, on the offensive side, it's not it's not remotely close. It's not good enough. It's just not good enough. And then you put in competent coaches around it. Okay, you're putting competent coaches around it. And unqualified coaches. Is there a status update on bond if he doesn't play this game won't be close? Correct. And then you can't just say, if you're playing this game, if bond does play, and you put, and you put trotter out there, and you put Campbell out there, they're going to wreak havoc running in the middle of that zone. A wreak havoc in there.

Hey, listen. Why do you think coordinators didn't want this job? What? Because why? Philadelphia is not a great place to coach. Great fan base. Great city. Great sports city. What was the determining factor? Is it hurts? And maybe a little style of play. It's more about the meddling from the front office and how they control the game plan, how they control the personnel. Doug Peterson, Frank Wright, all said that on this program. You got to learn how to coach in Philly. Front office has to be involved. And then you can listen to Frank. Frank was on this program and said that. And you don't believe it. Go back and listen. We will be stuck in this cycle of a new offense every year until we find the head coach that has his own offense. Then it doesn't matter if the OC, it doesn't matter right now who the OC is. You need a play calling.

Head football coach. Or you're going to be on the constant. Mary go round. Correct. When. Hey, be prepared. It's going to be highs and lows. Do finding a good coordinator is almost impossible. It's almost impossible. When you find these great offense of coordinators. Cowboys are Eagles are turning into the cowboys head coach is a high profile job. But not highly desirable. And I don't know about that. And they're not turning into cowboys. Because why? How he picks really good players and he's proactive. Jerry doesn't act quick enough. And usually lands on the wrong decision. How he doesn't land on the wrong decision a lot. How he will be 70 30. Good.

And the 30% will be bad. But that's as good as it gets in the NFL. How he's probably a 70 30 GM. Which is which makes him the elite tied. Which makes him an elite general manager. Shit man, you're open your GM hits on 50% of his draft picks. You're hoping for that. What up sales one was the last time you watched an Eagles game and thought. We really out coached the opponent on offense like Ben Johnson did to us. Never. Never. Your talent was so good the last and previous five years. You didn't have to have schematically challenging offenses. You lined up and ran people over. You just ran folks over. Your offensive line was so dominant. That's why you could have a chicken shit passing game.

We're the only 18 touchdowns of 29 passing yards. It's the fact that you didn't have to do anything special. You did things simple. All you did was run people over. You had the number one defense. There was nothing schematically challenging. Now that you have to have answers for lesser talent. You don't have them. There's people actually who think that roster is as good as the bend in the last couple of years. Which is insane. And you're going to find out because this is the best defense of front. That the Eagles have faced all year because there's multiple players. There's not just one Jeffrey Simmons. This Kobe Turner. Brandon Fisk. Poon afford. You're going to find out a boy. How good your boy Kendall is. And you've got good people in the middle in there. Still coaches want to coach and not be micro man. It's coming to filly.

To coach means you need to give up control or have. Never had control. So you don't miss it. Well, think about this. Look at the guys that they have. There's only been one experience to experienced offensive coordinators. That came to Philadelphia that have been previous. OCs. Right. And they have a lot of time. They have a lot of time. They have a lot of time. Change. I can. And. Kill them more. Those guys. Used hurts the right way. One guy used hurts in an RPO. The other guy didn't use them. And they got head coaching jobs for that. The other guys. They didn't know how to use hurts. And when the offense went south. I'll tell you what Brian Johnson didn't do that horrible job.

Now that I look back on it. So you're heading into this Rams game. You're going to get a better defensive front than you've gone against anybody all year. And I've. And I've showed you your second half numbers of this. Here's your second half numbers. With player. Results and with guess what? Coaching. City coaching. And bad personnel groupings. So you've you've gone 20 plays 52 yards. That's what you did against the Bears. And the Bears are an affordable defense. 34 for 106. And in the in the Titans game. And in the commander game, you went 18 for 78. This is all in the second half. Get this. I mean, right now.

And as I said. Here I'll show you this. And by the way, the competition at the Rams have played. 10 times what the Eagles have played. So here. I'll show you where the Rams are defensively too. Princess right now that the. Titans front is better. Let's see that. Let's see here. Rams. Two in total defense. Let's see where the Titans are. Not bad. They're 10th. They're good. Let's see here. Past defense. Rams are fourth. And past defense. Let's see here. Rams are 11th right now. And rush defense.

See here the Titans are 26th. I'm sure they're better. Rams have a better group. The Titans have Jeffrey Simmons. They'll make it better because you have one guy. Fire the stupid doofus had coats. I'm so sick of this. Of his confused he diotic face on the sidelines. I can't take it anymore. You can't take 52 and 19. I'm so sick of this. It's going to take a lot to fire that guy. Not just a blowout. Okay. Not just a blowout. On Monday. To fire Nick. Sills. Should they use herds like you said.

They should use a barkly and run him until the wheels fall off. They should go back to the old style of running. If they're going to do that. The only way that the Eagles win this year and win on Sunday. Is if herds has a big game on the ground. I think the Rams would struggle with herds running. Herds is a top rated corner back. I believe in that funny. I remember people giving me shit when I said you should draft that guy. I said, I'm not sure if he's going to be in the lead corner. He's not the highest paid corner. Sills. He's too small out of Washington. I said, this guy's good player. Let me guess you didn't remember. I know you don't. The roster carried him to the record. I'm not sure if he's going to be in the lead corner.

I'm not sure if he's going to be in the lead corner. Sills, the other guys tried to work with Nick and it cost him. How do you work with the head coach that can't run his own scheme? Hey, Bob. He doesn't have his own scheme. These, you know what these guys are doing? They're going to chat GPS. What offense do you think we could run to help the Eagles? We have talent we have on the team. Instead of developing your own offense, that just shows you right there how incompetent it's been coaching Jalen Hertz. I don't want another guy's offense. I want the Jalen Hertz offense. I want the Jalen Hertz offense. Hey, have we ever had the Jalen Hertz offense? I've never had it. Let me tell you something. If you had that Jalen Hertz offense from 2022 to today,

Jalen Hertz would be looked at as a better version of Lamar Jackson. I completely have that conviction. If you have kept on the train of keeping and developing him the same way of 22, he'd be a better version of Lamar Jackson. He was sensational. Sills, that's not sustainable. I know. Dual-threat quarterbacks aren't long term. They're like nine years. And it's over. Do you know that's what I think the Eagles know too? That guy set up for a short window. It's nine years. They know that. Like, Case Keenum is a 14-year guy. It could play like that into his 14th year. You think Hertz is going to play into his 14th year running the ball the way he does today?

Or a couple of years ago? No. Camario Taylor. What a player. 19 years old. He's from Mississippi. I'm telling you, man, that kid is unfricking believable. And I hate to do this to my boy's ander. He's going to beat Alabama this weekend. That kid's going to beat Bammett this weekend. And that kid in that program is going to skyrocket up the polls. And he's going to be leaving the tender to win the Highsman trophy. That kid can play. You, I watched him the last two weeks. I'm like, Holy shit. You know, they're talking to me about car and men's son. All these guys. I'm like, no, no, no, no. That guy down there in Haddie'sburg.

He's the real deal. He's 19. Just the other guys tried to work. Yes. See here, Colin. So it's my only issue with McDuff was he played at Washington in the Pac-12. I got him. I've always been skeptical about drafting Pac-12 guys on defense. You're not wrong. You're not wrong, dude. He's in the 28 class hills. Him and Russell from Alabama are going to be incredible next year. Dude. That Camario Taylor is you got to the kid from Florida to yet. With the running back, the kid ball. Kids the best back in the country. I'm not wrong.

No sales nick as a scheme like he ran with rivers, but. Hurts can't run it. Nick can't coach a player like Kurt skillset. Bob, you know what I do? I never got. How people always fought me on this. I. I happen to agree with you. Okay. I happen to agree with you. When you look at it, okay. Look at the hires that he makes. Not one coach has ever been hired. That mirrors. Hurts his ability. It mirrors. Nick's mentality. Hurts is not T-ball 2.0. I'm not wrong. I'm not wrong. Dude.

Hurts in the city of Philly is a legend. You know why he's taking the bar exam and past it. I told you that on February 9th that day on February 10th that Monday. You can never take that away from that kid. Guys crossed the finish line. Rip the bubble screen. Play out of the play. But Cooper, I think, could block that play. Mr. Hill. There's people in here that actually think that chipmanyan is a good play collar. And that guys like Ray, as you said, it'd be a seamless transition. How do you call a play like that? It's simple. You don't know your personnel. Kim. Check this out, Kim. There's two plays that tell me that Sean Manion. Excuse me. Chipmanyan.

Doesn't know what he's doing. What two plays have you seen? That make you think that guy doesn't know what he's doing. Or that chipmanyan doesn't know his personnel. Does anybody know those two plays? I wonder if Prince. I wonder if Prince knows those two plays. I'm not ripping them. I'm not. What's the two plays? What's the two plays that you know that chipmanyan does it know his personnel? It's very simple, I think. I think he's going to be able to play the game effectively enough. Okay. You'll know. Actually, nicely done. That's a third one.

Here, Prince. So you, you run that bubble screen. Then you run that bubble screen again with Zach Hertz blocking. And then you have Andy Dalton. Dota. What was it Zach Hertz in the back of the end zone? Do you not know who the fuck's on the field? You get what maybe one of the worst blocking tight ends and profile history. On a bubble screen that doesn't work. And you don't know your personnel. Then you get your quarterback in. After your quarterback gets his belt wrong. And then you throw the ball in the back of the end zone with a guy who hasn't had any plane time whatsoever. How do you not know your personnel? Let alone the right place. Yeah, dude. That's exactly what Prince has been talking about.

When you're talking about bad coaching, that's fucking horrible coaching. And that goes again to knowing who my plan with. You gave chip manion and get this you gave chip manion and Nick Seriani. Zach Hertz to block. When does that guy ever been a good blocker? Like ever even in his prime. And then you asked him at 36. Hey, dude, do you know what you're doing? Hey, if I'm going to get this, if I'm going to run a bubble screen, I'm going to run it with derriest Cooper. I'm going to run it with Barkley. I'm going to line Barkley up out there. A guy who knows how to run in space.

This guy's a slot receiver. He made his living at SC in the slot on the hashes. How it God's name? Do you not know that? And here's another one. Here's another one here. So when you're coaching meetings, Prince, and you're coaching meetings, when you're trying to line up your run game and your past game, who came up with the brilliant idea, let's move Cam the left guard and put, Drew Kendall at the center position. And we'll go there. Well, as Cam ever played left, now, but fuck it. I'm great at the right, so I'm assuming he'll do great on the left hand side. According to some of you in here, get this. It's funny, isn't it? Cam Jurgens was an alternate all pro or pro baller at the right guard.

You know what he is over on the left side? A liability. You guys thought it was going to be the same, didn't you? Right guard left guard. Well, how come Cam's getting killed? Please injured. So you're going to put a guy that's injured and make this decision. It's injured in a more difficult role, playing against usually the best three techniques that every team has. And you're going to put that guy in that role. Who made that call? Like who made that personnel call? There are personnel decisions that are being flawed on defense and offense right now. Here's here's the two other personnel flaws. Your edge rushers right now would hunt and with J. Alex hunt and I'm disappointed in hunt too. I am. I'm disappointed. I thought all the things we were hearing and Cam. Once again, I should know better because you know why most of the shit that comes out of the Eaglesville.

It comes out of the PR department and all the people that cover the team are all full of shit. They're all full of shit. Get this. So nobody. Hey, um, Prince. Nobody reported for three and a half months. That landed. Degersen was hurt. You know what they reported? Run game looks like it's coming back. Hunt looks like a special player. Three. Will and look special. All of those things were being told to us. Trick will and looks like shit. Cable is struggling covering backs and the two edges are getting blown off the ball. That's a personnel decisions. Who made those personnel decisions? Vic. Vic don't make personnel decisions. He says it all the time. That's a how he think.

That's why he's going into this Rams game. Where are you right now as a unit going into this Rams game? Hey, by the way, I think your season could swing here. If you man up. I'll tell you this. There's way more pressure. On the Rams and there is on the Eagles going into that game on Sunday. Nobody had one and three on your bingo card. If that team goes one and three to Rams. Bill Plasky from the L.A. Times was saying that team should be four and out. Okay. And being one and three. I've got to tell you, man. That wouldn't be a place. I'd want to be with all those moves you made. Pain, McDuffee getting miles Garrett. All the expectations. The revamping of the salary is Stafford. Shit, man. The Eagles. roster right now is going through transition.

You know what here. I didn't understand why we were blitzing. Wollen who can't tackle or break down. You know why? He would rather blitz him than have him sit back and coverage and watch. Case, keen him. Eat him for lunch. And get turned around as a secondary guy. What's the truth? Thirdly at golf game. Terrick Wollen. Does not look good. Adoree Jackson. Look better. I mean, no, no, no, I'll take that back. Adoree looks to probably the same way he did a year ago. That's a equal and looks right now. That was the first series of the game. We scored seven points total against a 28th rank Chicago defense.

That's how bad our offense is. Yeah, get this Paul. That defense made the Eagles offense. Look like the Titans offense. Because Dennis Allen knows what he's doing. Dude, that's a better coaching staff in Chicago. As a as a collective. It's a better coaching staff. So here. There's another one going into this game on Sunday. The Rams are ranked seventh offense of line wise. Eric Jackson. Avila. Cole Shelton. Kevin Doxin. And more McClendon. These guys are ranked seventh.

The seventh best unit in pro football. With arguably one of the best signal callers with a defense that's given up 25 yard as 25th and yards. Per rush. The 25th. So the Rams have the advantage in this game coming up on Sunday in the lines. They got a better D line in you. And they've got a better offensive line in you. Heading into this game. Just because the names say Carter and Davis doesn't mean you're playing well. That doesn't mean that. Because they're not. Prince thinks that they had opportunity. I never thought that game was close. I thought the Bears had control of that football game from the opening coin toss to the end of the game.

I never saw that thing as being close. Score doesn't indicate it. To me, that felt like a 37 to 7 game. I playing good art for driving the Mr. Softy truck around Novakair during training camp. Those push up pop ups turned J. Alex on into. Nice nice try. Well, John, the good arts going to get his shot. What do you think about the cowgirls getting Joey Porter? I think that's a good move for them. They need personnel help. They know it. They need personnel help. Here. Prince said the game got away. They can get away. Bears pounded him. And the third quarter.

They can get away. Well, if you're using got away as pounded. All right. But they were pounded in the third quarter. They were actually the Eagles were pounded in submission. In the third quarter pointed out easily to you here. Look what the Bears did in the third quarter. Eagles get the ball coming out. They do shit with it. Bears go seven place 38 yards. Feel goal. After that, they go five place 71 touchdown. After that, they go three plays two yards. Here's what the Eagles did. Three plays five yards. Three plays minus two. Three plays four yards. Five plays 20 yards interception. Game was 20 to seven. They took control of the football game in the third quarter and towards the latter part. And in the fourth quarter, they ran the Eagles off the scoreboard.

And to the point that 20 plays for 50 yards got away. Yeah, I'd say. The 20 20 plays 50 to yards. Is what the Eagles did in the second half. I would think so. They got away. The Bears were bruh were bullying the whole game. Carter and Davis rent. I don't think so. I think what Prince said, a couple, I think Prince, you said this a couple of days ago. I think they played pretty decent against the run for about two and a half quarters into the third. And then Vic had to make a decision. Do I pull the fifth guy and do I go away from the five man front? Because I've got to put more guys in the secondary because Vic got out coach. As a matter of fact, if you really want to go down,

Vic got out coach more than Sean Mania did. And all the things we saw in that game in Chicago. McVeigh has got to do one thing to what is McVeigh? Okay. What does McVeigh have to do? Different. And that was on display Monday in this game. If he's going to beat the Eagles, there's one thing that the Eagles have an advantage on on Sunday. You know what that is? It's finkster muscle. I think McVeigh tightens up late in ball games. That guy in Chicago. That guy don't believe in tightening up anything. That guy steps on the gas pedal. And that guy's not stopping shit. That guy in Chicago is aggressive.

That guy in LA, they completely dominated the Eagles last year. Completely dominated them. Except for what? They got out coached with three minutes left in the game that mattered the most. McVeigh has got to show that he's got to get away from that. As a matter of fact, I would say this to you about Sean McVeigh. That's going to get in his, he's like a modern day Andy Reed. Andy Reed had that same disease and Philly. So conservative late. All of that just was conservative, man. And used to always get conservative. Remember that bucking ear game that closed out the vet? That game was one of the worst coach games in Philadelphia history at the end. That game was so poorly coached. It was so poorly coached by Andy Reed.

I mean, McVeigh's record is insane. Only him and George Howells have one more football games by the age of 40. And more division crowns. And it's super bowl. Now preseason over. What do you think? What do you like to see Sunday? What can they do? Fox, what can they do Sunday? They've got to pull some things. And they're the underdog going into this game. Just you miss one trend with the defense so far. Look at the first half of those three games. And then in the second half. No, I listen. I think the adjustments that listen, I'm not going to disagree with with Prince saying that the coaching has been horseshit the first three games.

It has. On both sides. But Prince, I'm going to say it again. You can get away in the past with shitty playing calls. Hey, by the way, I thought I saw something today at Vic Van Gio's presser. That was the first time I've seen in a long time. You know what that was? Vic getting short with reporters. Because Vic was starting to get questioned. About some of his calls. Second question out of the gate reporter goes, said something of it goes, you mean the play call? Yeah, Vic, the play call. Hey, Vic, do you think that you're not open for criticism? Well, that would be a mistake. Because every coach, Bill Balochek included all those guys. All those guys are open to scrutiny all the time.

You can't lay on your laurels and think you get the benefit of the doubt if you make a shitty play. Hey, that was in a very good call. You mean the call? I heard Vic say that and I was like, yeah, Vic, that was a shitty call by you. Any question the reporter for asking them. And I was like, okay, Victor defense got torched on Monday night. Hey, get this. 41-yard TD. You know what he said? It was miscommunication. Then the reporter came back and said, how about the call? You mean the call? I was like, hey, Vic, it all works hand in hand. Player didn't perform and it was a shitty call. Um, I thought when he paused, hey, Kim, are you in here? I thought when he paused when he was asked about try to get more reps.

Possibly. What? You better run that by howdy there, homie. I mean, how about this little nugget here about the Rams that he put out there? Outside of the FBASCO, he said in down in Australia. You know the Rams have put up 500 yards in total offense. And their last playoff game. And in their first three football games outside of San Francisco, he brought that up and he says they put up 500 yards in offense. You. Mayan. Wolf, hang on. 500 yards. Hey, have a hurl, oh, baby. Hey, I got to move my pillow around before I get big Z up here because I yeah, that 500 yards. And this ain't the Titans. All right.

Without further ado, week four of the national football league starts. And it starts tonight. And how was that game a one o'clock game on Sunday? That's the dumbest shit I've seen yet this year. That that game ramps in Eagles should be like the Sunday night game. I'm glad it's not. However, a one o'clock game. It feels we'll get his Corona beer drinking in on Sunday. I'll be feeling good about it all. How you doing without further ado? We bring our man in big Zander Krausey joins us now. How you doing? What is up big sales? How you doing, brother? Hey, have you got any word on bond so far? Now that he was in the protocol. So we'll see if he's ready to go. It's not not typically an easy thing to get out of sales, you know, that quickly. Not looking good for bond, but we will see.

I still optimism. He'll be out there. And boy, if you don't have him, that's going to be exciting this week, my friend. So we'll see. I agree with you 100% by the way. I just heard you talking about Vic. He's getting a little out of his presser. He's getting a little. Hey, get noticed. Patty. Did you notice it, man? He was. Oh, yeah. One word, one word answers. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Great. Because I found out this for you. You're damn right. I found out this morning, right? I had no clue that ball was not there yesterday. I heard you. I saw you out of shock. Where I couldn't believe it myself when I heard it. Well, no, I just didn't know. I didn't see it. I didn't need to. I don't follow it during the day as much as, as much as, you know, I get updated, obviously in the morning and some stuff. But yeah. Zach Bond concussion did not practice. Hollywood Brown, ankle did not practice. Dallas God or need did not practice. Fred Johnson need did not practice. The Vante Smith did not practice hamstring.

God Campbell knee. Oh, that popped up. Left practice. Jordan Davis calf. Left practice. Moro Joe Mo calf. Left practice. Chailing card of rest. Full practice. Jonathan Bernard. Peck. Oh, man. Full practice. Byron Young. Perfto. Full practice. Teams, teams, you know, an interesting spot right here. Tough early adversity for sure. And obviously a tough opponent this weekend. Does Nick have answers? Yeah. Let me ask you a deeper question. Mr. Howie Roseman is the CEO. Did how we build this team properly the last year and a half? Coming off the Super Bowl. You could look at the entire list of decisions that have been made. Spence the Eagles paraded down Broad Street. How many of them were good decisions? How many of them have led to the Eagles?

So, having successful years. Now, there's no winning. So I'm not saying that it's been horrible. But you're talking we're talking about a lot of personal issues. We're talking about linebackers not looking to go. But I'm not saying that he's not looking good. We're talking about offensive line depth. We're talking about a depleted receiving group. Now, don't tell you what to step up. Depleted tight end group. I don't know. I mean, you know, it's football is cyclical. It has been since the beginning of the league start in New York. It's been since the beginning of the league start in 1920 or whatever the hell it was. Right. It's a cyclical game. And I'm not, I don't even say to crap on how we, but it's almost like he was due for like some down years. Because maintaining a roster that long is very tough to do. And you look at it and then I think there are some bad decisions that were made as well. I really do. And to your credit, you've been shedding light on them in the moment when they've happened. And I think we've given a little bit more of a leeway to how we

on him making those decisions. I certainly have well, but I do think 52 and 19. You do have to temper. Yeah, 100% are going on 100% I agree with them. It's too early to be like, oh, it's bad. I'm not saying that. I'm just saying, you know, some of the problems that we have are personnel related. You know, like coaches aren't going to have answers if coaches don't have the right players. Sean Manion might never have an answer when he doesn't have a tight end. When Johnny Mont and 36 year old Zacharyts are his tight ends. Again, another thing that you said, that's got it's going to miss games. You said that before the year. Misses games every year. So what are you going to do when he's not out there? Well, they got hurts. You know, who might have who's who's who's meet might be falling off the bone on that left on that leg. And the me but you go over the boat. I don't know. So I'm just you know, I'm not I'm not ready to shit on how he. I'm just saying I don't think he can skate by free and we can say Jaylen and Nick and Sean and all these other guys.

You know, I do think the one thing that you have to give him credit for that a lot of GMs won't do. You miss on regular. What do you do? What you go sign a free agent and you go get AJ. You miss on Andre Dillard. You go and you get a guy and McIe back and put him at right guard and that guy turns out to have a great year for you and help you in a super bowl. You don't really do a great job. Miles Sanders is okay but not great. He wanted it up great. He goes out he gets Barclay brings them in. Janel Phillips you bombed them Bryce Huff. So far Nolan Smith doesn't look like a first round pick. What do you do? Get Janel Phillips you go get Jonathan good art. What he does do is he's proactive and if he sees something he sees something like this. And if something's not working he's going to go like this go get me Kenny Moore. Now some of those are some of those are pandates. You're right you're right. Some of those are pandates but you know what you want your guy doing.

You want your guy taking swings at the plate. If your team is good you do and they're good. They're not bad. They're not where they were but they're not bad. Here's where I want to ask you something about Nick again talking about having answers. Sandra do you not agree with chip manion as your offensive coordinator when you go chip manion. You tell me this don't you agree when you see these coaches go hey Zach Hertz I want you to block on a bubble screen or I want to throw a bubble screen to a macaque lemon or I'm making a personnel decision by putting cam durgans at left guard. How do these offensive coaches not know the personnel and who's in the game. Why would you have a 36 year old tight end blocking on a bubble screen for a guy who's a slot

receiver and he's not you're blaming that on manion. I'm blaming that on the collective group. Yeah I agree. Like you said all what again it does know how it likes the personnel issues. Every every offense that runs this offense that they wanted to run has tight ends a lot more than one of them. The Eagles came into the year with Goddard and month. Month was the number two not the number three was the number two. That was not a good enough group and now you're asking Zach Hertz to block the block on bubble screens and they can't. Which is uncool. Which is uncool on him man. What do you think has the advantage going into this game on Sunday on the. Any lines here. Aaron Donald Kobe Turner. Brandon Fisk. Poon afford versus the Eagle O line. How do you feel about that? I think that's a pretty good line obviously especially in the interior.

I think that's the best group you'll play yet so far. Interior well yeah probably. I mean they don't have the upside player like Jeffrey Simmons was but David better collective. Yeah correct better better three. Yeah I think I probably give that to the Rams right now in the interior. I mean did you see that they're they're rating the Eagles so highly again on pf f what is this all that. What are they second? Ford. Ford. I guess it's because they do like individual and then they add it all together so like lane. I think the best protection has been pretty decent hasn't it? I guess I mean I wasn't that good last week. Now I don't see that at all those metrics don't add up here. Let me go over to the offensive side and in that same pf f the Rams I think were ranked seventh or eighth as an offensive line. They're offensive line which is a top 10 offensive line and one of the top. Their number one in total offense heading into this game big Saturday today outside of that fiasco down under last three games they put up 500 yards in total offense.

How do you feel about that group he's going against with Vic and how they're playing? By the way I do agree with this. I think that Eagle DeFi just kind of played better Sunday. Now excluding the conversation of bonds not in the middle of the field. Yeah that's going to be a problem because you already have a mismatch there with the safety. I mean you know Sean's going to be attacking those guys all over the place. So I'm puking a coup is supposed to be back too. So the only one I feel good about is whoever gets whoever's lined up on Quinion. All right they'll probably be taking out of those plays. But other than that I have no idea. You think they go single coverage with McDuffy on um on Monday? The sure of man defense guy. I don't know. I don't know that I'm going to have to look at that because that means he would travel. Yeah right I don't think he's going to travel. I see that's what I'm saying. I mean would you put one guy or would you double smitty? Because I'd like to see that battle between McDuffy. Zone pattern match scheme rather than struck man to man.

Zone it's a big fan. That means smitty's going to have a good day. Underneath. Yeah he's a big fan. It's the scheme falls under fangio and stale he's coaching trade utilizing zone coverage is cover three cover six or defenders initially dropping his own areas but match receiver routes after the snap as if they were in man coverage low blitz rate dime packages situational man coverage. It's a big fan. It might tough for you as the highest rated corner right now. I think in the league. Yeah I saw that he is. He is the highest rated corner in the league. Zander where are you where's your optimism? Why are you optimistic? I had people last night on my ex account and I'm not I'm not talking about your fandom. I'm saying why are you optimistic that you know it's early or still things to be had. We still don't know a lot about this area that area. The defense I do think you brought a great point up two days ago. You said this that defense traditionally gets out to a slow start and ramps up as the

season gets going because it does. Where's why are you optimistic on it? Well I think you named it on the defensive side of the ball. I mean I think they've earned some of the benefit of the doubt. And I want to see what they can become later in the year. Part of it the optimism is simply because I don't want to write any team off in week three. You know Eagles or anybody else and I think you have to give yourself a little bit of time to find your rhythm and acclame especially in the league that we play in the league that it is today. There's no training camp. That's intense. There's no preseason. There's none of those things. So I think you have to give it a little bit of time. And I've been intrigued by Jalen. I thought the first two games he looked awesome. Obviously third game is a different story. And I think Devon Day has elevated. I think Don Tavian-Wix has looked good. God, it looked good when he was healthy. So I think the guys on the outside have looked good. And that's given me some optimism. Like coming in a week three I felt good about Wix. I'm like man Wix might be a guy.

You know, he might be better than a guy actually. He might be a good player. It doesn't mean he's a superstar but a good player. That's where my offensive optimism lies. They also ran some successful run plays last week on the outside zone and that first half kind of got bottled up. But so maybe that gets going a little bit more. And then you know, my concerns are really the interior of the offensive line. Number one. And then how many games is linked up? You know, so it's like I think that's probably the other area of minor concern. Just like because the interior is struggling. Like imagine if Lane misses games again. And Fred's hurt. Huh? And Fred's hurt. And now you're going to have Mark Elbeaux. Hey, maybe Mark Elbeaux turns out to be a good player but I think it will take him some time. So my concerns really are on the on the line. I mean, that's really where they all boil down to. And then some of the other things that I think are a little concerning which maybe we've turned to blind eye to is almost like the exact same.

Now I know statistical stuff is not the most important all the time but it's literally the same as last year. Like someone sent me a grind. I think it was Prince on on X. Prince, you sent me that graph of where Jalen hurts is thrown to the ball this year. It's like 19% of the middle of the field 11 reps. 11 throws in the middle of the field. It's amongst the lowest in the league. To the middle of the field. Now it's maybe an uptick for Jalen, but it's amongst the lowest in the league. Play action success. Lowest in the league. You know, motions way up. But what does motion really mean if you're not getting- That's matter. Right. If you're not getting in better positions. And defenses are not biting on it. Right. So I think some of that is a concern because it precedes this year. Anything that's new this year, I'm in weight and seam of defense, defensive line, stuff like that. When you have an interior of an offensive line that's struggled last year and now struggles this year, I'm concerned about that. When you have a thin tight end group last year to this year,

I'm concerned about that. So those are the things that I think are concerning. The reason for optimism, I won't lie to you though, to be blunt is the team's been so good. Like every year the team is good. I mean, I talk to these people, I talk to family members, I talk to in-laws, I want to talk to the Eagles. All the conversation is always just- Well, the Eagles just are good. They've been good for the last five years. And until they're not good, I almost have to be like, well, let me see. Because when they're not good, they win 11 games. I mean, how many fan bases out there would be like, yeah, when we're not good, we win 11 games. I mean, the Eagles got shit on last year by this fan base. Shit on! And they were an 11-team win team. Now, there was a lot of reason to shit on them. But there's not many teams that get shit on to that level and win 11 ball games. So it's a winning organization. In a division title. Right, in a division title. And they always put themselves- if they put themselves in a chance to win, I think you can never count it out.

Like I said, we were talking about baseball before. And you're- Oh, you're gonna get that. Like you're in it. Go in the game. You know, I don't care who's better right now. You're in the playoff game. That's how I felt last year. That's how the 49ers played us. I don't care who's the better team. We got to win one game in the playoffs to advance. So I think the Eagles got to get in. They'll get in. And who cares what the records are. If they get in, then you have a chance to win. And that's where you got to turn it on and play your best football. Just like Case Keen, I'm on a day in September. Played his best football. All right. So that statistic that prints at you. Who are your middle of the field players right now? Well, it was Goddard and week one and two. Hopefully a lot. Okay. Well, Lemon was supposed to be. Correct. But they appear to want to use him behind a line of scrimmage. I don't know why. Okay. And they've used the bot day a little bit over the middle. They've had some crossers. And that's really it. Wicks, I guess they had like a cut. No, they didn't have. I don't think they had many over the middle to him. I thought they had only throw over the middle of the

Wicks. I can think of was the was the meatball sub that Dalton threw in the back of the end zone. Hey, um, so when when Sam Darnold threatens in the passing game, it's with Jaysson across the middle of the field, right? Don't lie. Okay. It's unreal, by the way. When the 49ers want to do some damage, they go to Kettle across the middle of the field. Correct. Yeah. Pukin Aku is a slot receiver, right? He's all over, but yeah. Okay. So if you want to be a middle of the field team, don't you have to have middle of the field players? Yeah, and I think Goddard was that early, but he doesn't say healthy. I mean, correct. How can you rely on building an offensive attack when a guy misses 24% of your career? You can't. I mean, you don't have middle of the field. You want to be a middle of the field. Why don't why are you? By the way, I'm not even blaming hurts for this. I'm not. Yeah, but but I think I think it has to eventually come back to hurts because

and I'm not not even in a critical manner, just in a manner of his style doesn't use the middle. He doesn't want to throw the middle field that much. You know, I don't think he does. He can. He's a fact that we were going to say, but in a volume perspective, I don't think it's going to happen. Okay. So the quarterback doesn't like to throw the middle of the field and the organization's not getting middle of the field players. Correct. Yeah, maybe that's maybe that's okay. So do you think that's going hand in hand? Like the quarterback, they're building the offense to the quarterback skill. Yeah, definitely. So they're not going to put because like this, and Jalen herch is entire time as an offensive passer in Philly. Have you ever had a slot receiver? Not really. They had ques lockings and they had dots and now they got lemon. Yeah, you're right. Not a real winner in the slot. They've all been perimeter players, right? Wise and Z's. Yeah. But I mean, it's, you know, they had AJ Brandon the Montague for the last four years. There hasn't been much change. But but if we're going to talk about the middle of the field, and that's where you win ball games,

you don't really throw with personnel. You don't have personnel to like exploit that. Gotter is a really good player, but I think he's been more one of the more underutilized guys. And then when you expect Jalen herch to throw across the middle of the field, or here's quarterback doesn't want to throw across the middle of the field. Any organization doesn't get middle of the field players. Yeah. How could you be six? You know where Stafford throws a ball out, middle of the field. Stafford throws all over the place. Yeah, I mean, they're not, they're not, they're not this volume offense. That's going to move the ball at that, you know, for that level. I mean, at least they haven't been in the past. They were, I think, one game. So if you can't, yeah, they threw the ball 37 times, I think in that Titans game. Yeah, right. And that's where you're jailed. I mean, Jalen was pretty successful in that game. So no, no, where, no, I mean, look, with eight of that half, I mean, about it really that half, but a bad half, I mean, I'm not, I still want to give this offense some time to develop and find its rhythm and build on that. Like Jalen spoke about it again yesterday where there is new concepts and new things

and we're implementing these things and being successful while you're learning those is a challenging thing to do. So I think you have to give them some leeway. Like I said, you earlier though, that's where some of my concerns come with like the stuff that was a concern last year too. You know, because even with the new offense, even with the new makeup, even with the new cosmetics, as you said, you know, it's still a lot of the same problems. So those are where I think the concern should lie, but everywhere else, I mean, I do want to give it a little bit more time here. I think I will say this. I think this week and next week and even week six, I think there's going to be really, you're going to, I think there's going to be really good games to learn what this team is made of. Because the Rams, I think, will score some points, especially if the defense doesn't play or plays like they have played. I would imagine they're going to target the linebackers if there's no ball on. I mean, that's going to be trouble because the trotters already limited in coverage and Campbell hasn't been great in coverage. Now, I think maybe we'll help you in the run game a little bit.

Maybe it'll be an improvement over falling. That'd be tough to say. So they're going to target those guys and then the safeties have been future. And I got news, Kenny Moore has played 100 snaps in his career at safety. He's not playing safety. And you know, the other thing I'm wondering too is, is Cooper DeGene going to be as good of a safety as we think as Boya? We all slot him there and think, all right, safety's fixed. We don't know that. It's a different position. I don't know that Cooper DeGene can drop back there and play that position at a high level. I used to think he could. I still think he's a great talent supplier. But I don't know. Can I just say, oh, yeah, move, coop back and safety's fixed. I don't know. I don't feel like I could say that. You know, Xander, one thing that I have a hard time wrapping my hands around, what you just said, I want to give this offense more time to develop and learn. Jesus, cry of any man. We're in year seven of Jalen Hertz's career. We're talking about allowing an offense to mature,

coordinator, get his footing. Aren't we way past that as well? You know, when you say this, I'm sick of the conversation being the quarterback in the head coach. The quarterback in the head, aren't you sick of saying this? Well, I want to give the offense a little bit more time to work on it. I mean, this is your seven. We're saying that every year now. Yeah, but I think to be fair, you do say that about every team. Like, look for, look. But I know Matthew, but I know who staffed. You know what they are, but have they needed time to figure it out this year? Well, I know what they're going to try in their concepts. Fixed at today. You know what? Fixed at about him. They don't do anything different in the run game than they did four years ago. They just do different. They have different people. He said that today in his presser. He goes, dude, their run game's the same. They don't do anything different. That's four years ago. Those guys aren't doing. Big fan, you're getting caddy with the media. Dude, I saw that man. I'll tell you what folks. He's getting short with them. And he's giving you one word answers now. Because he got called out in a second question.

Like it was like, how about the 41-yard touchdown? And he goes, yeah, what's it mean? Is it maybe a disdain for the organization? No, no. He doesn't want to rip his guys. Doesn't want to be questioned. Well, the fastest way was reading it down headlong. Hey, listen, the fastest way not to rip your players is to give short answers. And that's why Nick Sireani gives short answers. Or it gives long, word salad answers. I thought Jalen Hurtzett's some very interesting things today. A lot of people may be missed. Yes, though. Yeah, he spoke yesterday. Yes, excuse me. Yesterday. We're not... What was the line? We got to get on the same page. We're working through things. The communication going back and forth has to be smoother. You know, is there a communication problem between Manion,

Nick and Jalen? Well, I don't think so. But maybe. I mean, it is a weird system. It gets an odd system to have a non-play calling offensive minded head coach. But he's not. He thinks he is. He's not, but he's offensive minded. So he thinks... Yeah, right, he thinks he is. Yeah. So it's like it's kind of an odd system to begin with. But remember, I point everybody to the human element of Nick because I know everybody will shit on Nick. And I'm not saying no. And emotional. It's emotional, but think about it. Nick Sireani does have whether you like it or not. A pretty good track record right now of success. Yes. As a head coach. Yes. So to allow Sean Manion, a guy who's never called to play in his life

until this year, come in and just say, yeah, you have all the control. Like, that's like you hire. That's like, that's like you saying, okay, yeah, you're new to content. You can take over my show. I'll go by. He'd be like, fuck you. You know what I mean? So it's like, I'm just, you know, I'm not saying that Nick is above criticism. What I'm saying is the human element of that system in a way is flawed. In a way, it's flawed. That's why when I thought when I heard like what what Seth said, who I saw that he, I saw he had an anaerysm at your reaction coach is funny. But I'm like, if this is what's happening and people are unwilling for Nick to have control, then Nick should just be fired. Yes. You know, why is he the head coach? Right. Because he's the head coach. You you you you kept them on as the head coach. He has decision making. And if he doesn't have it, then I think you're making it worse. So making it worse, you know, I think this whole catch brings a good point.

There is on that track record of success, there is also track record of failure, especially with all offensive corners and especially with offensive success. So I do think that has to be added in too. And then you have this like extreme success, extreme failure. Where's the truth going to fall? You know? Yeah, absolutely. Yes. And that's my problem with why I always ask you. So get this at the end there. Some fans in here want Nick Sireani to go stand in a corner. Well, then what the fuck's his job? Well, he's not no get in the corner, especially not for a guy like he's not. And he should. And he should. And no, I you know what? I am not a night, Nick guy, but I will defend this. It's his boat. He's the captain of that ship. You don't want that captain get a new guy. It's a very you can't have it both ways. It's a very I will say this to it the front office the other the other. Tough parts or interesting parts but the way the Eagles are run.

And not a criticism just what what they are. They are very analytically driven. There are not many football people in the front office. They are not football type of guys. You know what I mean? They're very analytics. They are kind of book book book guys book nerd type of guys if you will. And sometimes that that seeps over into. You know how the team is run especially when you have a head coach like one of the downsides to Nick. Being politically savvy is he's going to play Kate. And if you play Kate, you know, and everybody's got to say then ultimately you end up play Kate and everybody will never creating your own identity. You know, and I think that that could be a part of it as well. So I don't think that's good when it comes to trying to find yourself offensively. I don't think you can look at every offensive progression through an analytic lens. You can know if you have a great half of football the analytics are going to look great. If you have a horrible half of football the analytics are going to look bad.

And I think you know it should be used but it shouldn't be it shouldn't be overtaken. And I do wonder just. Myself mentally wonders how much does that play. In Nick Syriani's head and in his job. How much does he have to answer to that. How much does he have to take that into account. How many people do he has does he have to satisfy with that. You know, the organization is kind of built that way. Now again, it's worked. I'm not criticizing him. I'm just saying I do think it creates some tough work environments. You know, where Nick I don't even know if Nick feels like he can just say to Sean. Well Sean, this is what I want to do and run it because he's got the game. Well, why'd you do this? And why'd you do this? You know what I mean? And I think that might that might play into. You know, maybe the the lack of confidence they have in putting their foot in the sand and going one way. You know, I mean think about the bail on their offense that that was ultimately very successful. In terms of the team.

They bailed on it. You know, maybe it was offensive line or maybe it was the analytics guys. I don't know. But I do think it plays a I do think it plays a role. You do not develop anybody coaching wise. Because you're an analytics team. That game on Monday was an analytics loss and indulge me here. The reason you don't have answers when you need them is because you're relying too much on what the front office tells you when they give you a game plan. Here's the analytics to beat the Rams. You sit down and you look at like that fourth down. Nick doesn't believe in what they're doing. That's why he's not going for it on fourth down. Nick gets all the plays or all the plays that the Rams run analytically from the front office guys and Lori's kid. Then from how he's side of it, how he gives you the personnel that's going to play and play Kate and fit that. Then Nick's got to build a game plan with Sean Maine and to kind of go out there with the analytics that you were given from your front office to be able to approach your game plan against that Rams.

This is why Ben Johnson and guys like Kyle Shanahan run circles around you because you know why? They look at the analytics as a tool not as the end all. These guys look at it as the end all and when the end all doesn't work Xander and you're looking for answers, they don't have it. That's why they're not good in situation play calls and that's why you can understand Sean Maine. Hey, Sean Maine, drawing up a circle and drawing up a play versus play calling a play. Bro, they love that style in the front office and Philly because you know why? That goes into the analytics side of it. You can't develop coaches this way. You can't develop continuity. And I think that's one of the things that Jalen was talking about yesterday when he said we've got to have a better operation and running together and being able to match things up and run the run game. It looks okay out of it right now. The run game's over here. The pass game's over here and you know what hurt's doing? Hurt's just trying to pull the thing together like a tug of war.

And it's almost in you're putting the quarterback in such a tough spot because the run games over here, the pass game is on such a wild side over here. Bubble screens, Hurt's blocking and screens. Look at the fuck. Jalen's in the middle of this and we're he's got to put everything together. And when you got too many roosters in the handhouse talking and trying to figure out what's right. That's why the offense looks chaotic a little bit. And it also makes it very hard for Jalen. It also makes it very hard for Jalen. It's impossible for him to get better as a player and progress in his career. There's no doubt about that. Prince is right. The offense is confusing. It is. I don't know. You're right. No identity, confusing. I don't know what they're trying to accomplish. I don't handle. No, I don't handle. And when you're going into a Rams game like this, dude, the Rams have to have that game. And the Eagles kind of have to have that game in a way. You know why? Hey, that's a bad moment.

That's not bad signs to come. You've got to come your locker room and your organization down a little bit because that was you guys were spent on Monday night. Coaching wise, player wise, execution wise, effort wise, all of that's yet. That's why when you get them in front of a press conference, all of a sudden you got Nick giving short answers and Vic giving short answers and you're like, wait a minute here. Okay, you know what the interesting part about this is though the Eagles front office gets a lot of a lot of praise and rightfully so they've been very successful but I don't think this organization would ever be able to have again what people want. Like I know people are like, I hate Nick because he's not a play calling head coach and you say he doesn't do anything. A lot of people agree with that. I don't think they could do it. I don't think they could live the other way. No, no, no, no. I want you guys to think about this. Think about this organization hiring Ben Johnson. They would combust and would look at how we in Jeffrey and Joey and the

analytic guys and say, I don't care what your opinion is. I'm building the football team how I see fit. I don't know if Eagles organization can handle that. Well, there's one way that you can get Ben Johnson as her head coach. You know what that would be. Fire howie. I disagree. Well, Ben Johnson's not going into a building without what somebody else telling him what to do. Dude, I'm telling you right now. You ain't hired to go like Ben Johnson as long as I was. I think you're wrong about the head of the snake. It's all okay. The head of the snake is not how we. How he operates beautifully within it. But he is not the head of the snake. Not in my opinion. So they've never hired a head coach with any former head coaching experience whatsoever. Well, no, they hire they hire head coaches that I mean they used to do this. They used to have Andy. They used to have a head coach before that. No, I know that. But they don't have yeah, former head coaches know, but

they used to not be this how bent on their system. Correct. And then it changed after I said that I've said it actually it changed after dog. It changed. I've said this before. Case strike says it in the chat. Case strike. I don't know if you've been listening to the show while I used to say. This owner has PTSD from Chip Kelly. Think of it like the Eagles are Jeff Lurie's baby. Chip Kelly took the baby and dropped it on his head. Not once, twice, three times. And now Jeff Lurie doesn't want to hand that baby to anybody else. So we got a guy in how he roseman. That's a confinant and his right hand man. And he trusts them. He trusts them with the money. He trusts them with the personnel. He trusts them with the implementation of their analytics. He trusts them with how Jeffery Lurie believes the organization should be wrong. And Jeffery owns the team. I have news for everybody. He's entitled to do that. But I do think that's created now like dude, Doug one. Doug wanted a coordinator.

And they fired him. Press Taylor. A coordinator. So for anybody that thinks though, like I saw someone just now in the chat say, we need a play calling head coach. Well, I don't disagree, but dude, it's not happening in Finland. Because play calling head coaches have control of the outcomes. Exactly. And, what else? And guess what else? Personnel decisions. And hiring of assistant coaches. Because that play calling head coach is going to want his style player. Right. That means that kind of clips how are you a little bit? That clips the hiring of personality. 100% And that means that I guarantee Ben Johnson. I guarantee you Ben Johnson has more say on personnel than how the next reality does. And hiring of who the assistant coaches. Yeah, agreed. Agreed. 100%. 100%. Now again, we say this. I don't want to. I do think we have to like. Some people will say, well, is the owner of the problem?

I mean, listen, they're very successful team. Well, I think we're just pointing out some of the intricacies. No, we're pointing out where you are. We're pointing out where you are. But I think it's the intricacies, too, of like. This organization is run a certain way. It has a lot of pros. They've been very successful. Four pros. There are some things. Right. There are some things that that are on the other side of it that I don't think give them as much leeway as people think. Again, I just said it with the play calling head coach. I think people should flush that because I don't think it'll ever come. And if it does come, he'll be controlled like Nick was at the beginning. You said something that may give me one of the greatest nixereony topics of all time a couple of minutes ago. And you said something that I never thought. And you know what, you're right. I've been going back and forth with with Seth over this. And I wonder if you agree with this. The emotional state of nixereony.

How much do you think that affects the coaching on Sundays when you see how emotional he is? To a point where sometimes it's childish. And if he's childish and acts like a child on the sidelines, why wouldn't he act like a child when it comes to authority on who has say over play calling and over who has the authority to move the sticks and put a game plan together? If you act like a kid on the sidelines, why wouldn't you act like a kid in a teen meeting when it comes to putting a game plan together? Hey, being immature and being emotional, there's two different things there. And at times, Nick looks like he's both at times on the sidelines. And that's why you have big dom on the sidelines. They're kind of making sure that he's controlling his emotions. No coach in the NFL has a bodyguard or a dormant or somebody they're watching him and his emotions.

I wonder, Zander, you just said something to me. Yeah, that's a bad recipe dude. Emotional decision making is a bad, bad, bad recipe. And he shows times where he looks like he's have bad emotional moments. Indianapolis, Kansas City, Chicago. I mean, if you're acting like that, like a kid in public, what do you do? I do think there's always going to be some nuance. Like there's going to be some, some, you know, but do you understand where I'm where I'm at? Yes, yes. And inherently, inherently emotional people will always think more emotionally than people who are not as emotional. That's that I think it was generally, generally would be, would be correct. But yeah, I mean, is that a reason that they don't give them more power? Maybe. I mean, is that the reason also people are saying he's in the way of manning? Hey, for me, that's kind of like, I don't think he's in the way of manning. Yeah, but you know, like, you get these problems aren't that, and this is where me and you

deserve that. You think he has an ego? Nick? Yeah. Yeah, but I also think that I do. But I think he, I think he is committed to what it takes to be the head coach at the Eagles. His way? No, they're way. So he's a mouthpiece for them. Oh, I mean, in some ways, everybody that'll be the head coach year will be. I'll tell you what, when I, when I see emotional leaders, I saw Jalen Hertz on the sidelines for the first time in his career. I didn't recognize the guy. I don't know. From the outside Jalen, Hertz is the only dude who doesn't have emotions. No, but, but Monday night, I saw it a little bit like, like him trying to galvanize and bring together. And I saw him like for the, like, I saw him get emotional. Like, not, not for Jalen getting emotional is like this. You know what I mean? I mean, you can see,

like the way I just, I just think it's probably my favorite part about Jalen. Yeah, stoic. Yeah, he's just, he's just cool and calm. And you know that that's one of the reasons I think he's so good late in games. He's so good. And the direct opposite of the head coach. Yeah, completely, completely opposite. The coach could go off and stand on a, on a bench and scream at people in Kansas City. The head coach and the quarterbacks and go get the fuck down. Yeah, but that's why I think that's where I do think this organization does like Nick because he, well, he is committed to doing it. In my opinion, the way the front office wants it to be done. And whoever's delivering that message, I don't know. Maybe Jeffrey Laurie got smarter after I got reported that he's scoled the dog Peterson after winning in Lambo because he ran the ball too much. And maybe he now sends it through other mouthpieces. Maybe how he roseman has become in mouthpiece. I don't know. I don't know how the message is delivered, but I do think Nick knows, you know, how to operate within their system. And I think that plays into the way the offense is run. Like I said, but we're all positive together. Like

they're not going to have a play calling head coach, right? So in theory, they're not going to have a head coach that has as much control over the offense as everybody here thinks Nick does. If you think that, then I think those orders are coming from above Nick. One of the most important questions you can ask anybody about a head coach. You think he has emotional control to be a head coach, honestly? Do I think Nick has the emotional control? Yeah. Well, I mean, he's won a lot. So I do have to give him that credit. He's been successful. This is not a guess, right? He's been a successful coach. But I've said since they hired, I mean, it would definitely not be my pick. I mean, I would never hire a guy like that to be my head coach. And I know fans are sometimes some fans like it because they're like, oh, he's like a Philly guy. I'm thinking you don't want to get like a Philly guy. No, I want to be emotional. I don't want my head coach being emotional. I'm maybe emotional.

I'm an emotional player. I want a guy that I can look at. When I look at him, he comes the waters down, man, and makes me feel good. And the reason I asked that question to you is because, you know, dude, you have to be the answer guy. And I think Ben Johnson, man, I'll tell you what, you know what? This is right. This is right. You may be dead. You may be dead, right? And you know what? They turn around and they wax the rams on Sunday and all this bullshit that I'm saying goes out the window. But I'll tell you one thing I saw Ben Johnson do. That guy's emotional, but he's controlled emotion. Nick looks a little unvery controlled emotion. I agree with that. I agree with that. Prince says, so why don't ask why it looks the same as Andrew, no disrespect. Non-take it, Prince. You're good. It's football conversation. We will just keep blaming Jalen Herrts. But the one thing I would wonder about that is, I don't think anybody's what they're doing. It's a fair point. It's a fair point talking about the front office. But the one question I'd have about that is how much of their analytical approach is based on, right? Like think about it, Prince.

100%. Think about it. Jalen has a lot of turner members in 23, right? And then they take the bottom of his hand and they have great success. Now all of a sudden the analytics are saying, well, don't let Jalen throw the middle or don't do this. And now you wonder, is the offense devised whether it's analytic guys or not? It is. Based on what Jalen is putting on tape and what the analytics are saying about their style of play. That's what I think it could be. That thing that Prince said, you would 19 throws across the middle of the field. He's a prime example with the front office thinks Jalen hurts. Dude, they build the analytics for this coming Rams game with not with a small approach to go across the middle. And then Prince turns around and goes, blame Jalen. It's not blaming Jalen. That's how they see Jalen. Yeah. They see Jalen hurt. See, Prince sees Jalen hurts as an elite quarterback in the league that can do anything. And because he's a good talent, he is a good talent. You know, the Eagles, how they see him, they see him as this. Very athletic, smart, great leader, limited in the passing game when

it goes across the middle of the field. We're not going to build a team to throw across the middle of the field for him. We're going to build a run game while the run game start to fade a little bit. And we just we just look at it. They look at him. How about this, Xander? The Eagles look at Hertz differently than the fans look at him. I think probably something with with Hertz that I would that I agree with you now when I didn't in the past or at least I think we I pushed back on you in the past on it. And I think I'm wrong on is I do think the organization, whether you call it Nick or how you're whoever analytics department, I do think Dave I do think Dave hindered Jalen Hertz's development as a player. I do think Dave now that I'm why? Because I don't I don't think they're putting I don't think they're allowing him to grow. I don't think they're putting him in the environment because they think they know what's best for exactly exactly exactly. Instead of instead of going through growing pains, everything is

analytical driven. And everything is well, this didn't work to go to this. By the no and I think that's created. It's almost put a put Jalen in a box a little bit. It's completely. Yeah. I mean, look at the highers. I was right. Remember that comment by Hertz. Hey listen, look at the hires. Xander, what's the fastest way to put a quarterback in a straight jacket? Have somebody who's limited in what they didn't know? Because he's going to have a limited playbook. If you hire a guy with a mass playbook, I know. Listen, I got it. It's as backwards. Listen, but it's but it's can listen. If you hire a first year play collar, it's never been a play collar. How big do you think his book is for play? How big do you think a play collar is like a Brian Dable or anybody else? Yeah, and also you're missing the other big thing too. How much power will they demand? Oh line coach, uh, uh, passing coordinator. They're saying the guys they hire don't

get any power because they have no credit. They have no like no resume. And it really does look like this. And to Prince's point, hey, have they done a good job since 22 and developing Hertz? No, they've actually gone the other way. And so now Jalen is in a position in his seventh year with lesser talent to try to bring it together. Boy, I'll tell you you dude, I gotta say, I gotta say, if this easy continues to go the way it is, they failed that quarterback big time this year. Well, stills. I mean, now they write the ship on Sunday. Okay. Well, that's the problem like with this convert. Like we've had this big grandiose conversation, right? Now now you go, all right, well, how they winning so much, you know, and that's what someone listening will say. And I wouldn't disagree with that because you do have to reason the two things. There are problems with that, what they do. There's problems with everything you're going to do. But at the same time, they are winning at this supreme rate. So it's

like, are they right? Maybe they're right. Maybe their system is better than the other systems. The Eagles are winning more than your favorite play calling head coach. Whoever it is. Can I think about that? Okay. Here's here's why I think they love their way versus the Bella check Patriots way. Here's here's why I think you're going to have more longer term success with more people in the front office having a say than one guy having a say. Because that one guy, when he runs out of talent like Bella check did in New England, he becomes just another coach. But when you're ever guide that's constantly turning the roster over every year, every year, every year, every year making you dude, you're not turning Bill Bella checks roster over every year like that. Because you're just not. And you're going to how he's doing this, how he's moving this guy around, how he's moving this guy, how he's seasoned. Hey, we're going to do this. We're going to pay this. We're going to do this. Do the face of that franchise is not Nick Seriani or Jalen Hertz. The face

of that franchise is how we rose. It is. That is definitely true. Well, I mean, Jalen is the on field face obviously, but, but sure, right. Yeah, sure. How do John Schneider is the face of the Seattle Seahawks? You think Sam Darpless? J.S. ends up bigger face. Right. There's very few places that run the same way. Look, you said wait, listen, listen to this because after all this conversation, Martin says is, I see Jalen telling his agent, let's go elsewhere. No way. Oh, no, you think about it. Shit. Okay. So wait, as long as how he rose from it's in that building, I believe that guy's going to build a football team around me. I don't think Jalen is a person without, I think Jalen is supreme belief in himself, whether he's right or not. Yeah, but that's irrelevant. If you go to a place like the Jetson, I just know, manager, bro, Jalen's second to win in New York because New York doesn't know how to win. You're missing my point. Okay, because Jalen deals with

this, though, they are stunting his growth to placate to whatever their, their guys or their organization, their analytics guys. I thought when he matters, winning does matter. What you want to win in New York? Could he win in Houston? Yeah, he could win with it. I think Nick Cacerio, if I'm Nick Cacerio this all season, I'd rather have Jalen hurts than CJ Strab by far. Oh, I wouldn't think twice about that. You know, heartbeat. In a New York minute, I'd make that move. You think it distinguels completely South and this thing gets really ugly. You think hurts with the land of betrayed at the end of this year? No, but I do think Jalen knows like they didn't give him a contract. Like, he knows that. It's not like Jalen's like, oh, you think Jalen and Eagles are in a good place? I wonder that. I wonder that. I wonder that because he's clearly been, he's clearly, he clearly has made it known. He hasn't been happy with everything. He hasn't been

happy with the coordinator turnover. He was not happy with the quarterback coach getting fired. Hence why he posted the picture with Scott Leffler. He's thinking what's happening the way they handled AJ Brown. That's a great question. Do you think hurts one and AJ gone? Here's what I'm here's where before I answer that, it was almost like the Eagles never sided with one of the other. It's like they let it play out and they didn't pick one side or the other where we came out 1,000 percent on the side of Jalen hurts. They never really said anything about well, it's in the best interest that we move on for me. They just did it and they never really went. I never felt that they were really 1,000 percent. Hey, we're with our QB here, man. If both guys contract, I don't think both guys contracts were up. I wonder how that would have. Yeah, I don't know that Jalen's ever felt that from that. Honestly, I mean, remember, even the year he got paid and this is,

I think Jalen deserves just a ton of credit for this, but you guys got to remember it like don't rewrite the story. They were toying with Jalen the year before that. Yes, we had DeShawn Watson on the phone. They had Russell Wilson on the phone. They were ready to bench his ass and move on from them. His credit said, fuck you pay me by putting an MVP season up in 2022. Like there's dude, the guy still talks about an almost every interview getting benched to Alabama. He knows everything they're doing. He's not a dumb dude. He's not a dumb dude. And the other thing I would disagree with a lot of people out there, I see so many people, I don't know where they get this, but so many people don't think there would be a team willing to pay a bag of money or a big draft pick, big draft haul for Jalen Hertz. I categorically disagree with that. There will be an NFL team that will pay an arm and a leg to get Jalen Hertz on their football team. Look around the league of Kooterbacks, guys. The Atlanta Falkers pay is horrible.

Atlanta Falkers pay Kirk Cousins 48 million bucks back in the day. He didn't do shit there. You don't think they're going to pay that guy 55. And they're going to trade. They'll trade a, I think they'll trade at least the first run pick for them. So I'm just saying, I do wonder like the question you just asked is probably the one that's most pressing right now for me. How does Jalen feel about this organization? How does Jalen feel about the way things are being run? The Eagles probably don't give a shit because they have that aura and that ego that they can do it with or without. That's how they feel about Nick. It's how they feel about Jalen. It's how they felt about dog. It's how they felt about Carson and Folls. It's not going to be different with Jalen. No, no. But the question would be is Jalen. This Jalen has belief that he can win at this level somewhere else and he's no longer interested in playing the game that the Eagles have won. I don't know. I do think it's I do think it's a fair conversation. I do too. Vic versus McVague this time around. Here's what Vic said about him. Very talented. Offense is exceptional.

It's a well structured team. He goes, they got tight ends to die for. And when she was telling people, they're going to threaten the middle of the field. He thinks that again, that this Rams team is a little bit different this year. The Vante Adams still has it. He's one of the best receivers in Profitball history. How do you feel about Vic going against McVague this time around? Well, actually, Vic has been good versus these types of guys. It's the guys like Ben Johnson who take kind of different approach who've gotten Vic even last year. The Bears got them. Those have been the guys that have really gotten the better of. I even think back to a 2024 game. I think it was the commanders who ran the ball all over Vic, Vanger. The two Bears games obviously. I feel better about Vic against the scheme.

Sean has not been able to get the better of Vic. Vic has kind of had their number. We'll see. I think Sean to his credit is not as stubborn as Vic. To me, Sean will look at what the Bears just did. To me, Sean will look at where the Eagles offense defense is struggling and trying to exploit that. Whether that resembles his offense or not. Vic is not going to change. That's my biggest credit for Vic. But I get it. He's got to his, I'm not going to tell Vic what the fuck I know. But I don't get how last week pissed me off. How do you come off a week where a defensive coordinator legitimately just gave you a blueprint on shutting down Ben Johnson. Ben Johnson on Wednesday of that week. At his press conference said, I am losing sleep already to face Brian Flores this weekend. That shows you what Ben Johnson is preparing to play Brian Flores. Obviously, he's still got fucking stoned.

And then you come in, Vic, Vanger, the very next week and you don't take any of that philosophy, none of that approach. You sit back and you let Case Keenam slice and dice you for four straight quarters of football. Like I know I'm not Vic, Fangio and I'm not saying I am. But how do you not take something from that? I know. You're not adjust a little bit to handle that. I would manage that. I was floored. You know, that thought that pisses me off. But again, Vick's an old salty dog who's not going to change his ways. No. So we'll see. I think it's going to be a great match. I'd rather have, I'd rather have people with conviction that people that waffle. So, Xander, I'm going to ask you a couple more. While falling to me is not the same as adjusting ability. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I'm going to ask you this on October 1st and I'm going to make sure that we keep addressing this moving forward now that we're at a September. Could this be a possibility of what's happening at Cooper D'Agin and what's happening to your defense? Last year, you're one of the worst football

teams on third down. Last year, you won the worst football teams on getting off the field on third down himself. Your run defense was not very good. Time to possession. All of that were just so bad last year. And Kevin Batullo put that defense in a bad time to where by the end of the year against the 49ers, and the 49ers made that defense look like a shell of itself. Could that be carrying over now with all these three inouts with this personnel here and now on October 1st? We're seeing the Chip Kelly factor that this defense here right now because of all these three inouts. It's catching up with this group like it did with that group with Chip Kelly back in a day and which ended up costing Chip Kelly his job because guess what happened? Remember what what was the number one thing that started happening to the Eagles offense? They were in the blue tent. Look how many blue tent guys you have on offense right now. Well, that's where you want to talk about this and you've got to blame it. There has to be blame

on the offense. I don't care if it's Jaylen, Nick, Manion. It's totally the offense. It's totally the offense. When you have this many three inouts, dude, that's going to impact your damn defense. That net dude even in this game in the second half that the Bears had that long ass drive. Remember they went up 20 to seven. Eagles come out, three inout. Defense is right back on the field. For another long drive. I mean, they were gassed. So I think you're on to something. I'm still a little bit in weight and c-modal defense where I think they can turn a corner. I think they can get better. But where you're right is stills, they're going to need their offense to hold up their end of the bargain. They're going to need it. Nobody, no defense in the NFL. Man is going to hold up when your team is having four, three inouts in a half. It's just not. It's not going to work. So they have to hold up their end of the bargain. Let's look at the de-guys that are on the injury report. Bond, Campbell, Davis,

a Jomo, Carter. I'm not going to count Bernard because he's not been here, but five of your 11 starters are on the injury report. Now obviously variations in injuries, but do five dudes for a football team that traditionally covets the fact that they love to be a healthy team? When does it get to the point where you're like, okay, wait, man, all these three inouts starting to wear out and you're already thin at certain spots on defense. I just think you're starting to see that. I think you're starting to see the team because again, I bought this interview. Go out there again. Smitty didn't practice today, but we'll see. Hold it, cow. I think I'm in, I don't know who knows. Boy, you better hope that you know how they are though. The ego's getting explainers in the weekend. Yeah, you know how they get this though. You got Zach Bond and you got Smitty not in that game? You might as well line up Temple. Yeah.

Line up Temple. You got to be kidding me, man. Hey, couple looks not too bad this year. Manion versus the, the Rams. What do you make of him this weekend? Well, Chris Shula, you know, is a good defensive coordinator. So we'll say I think the advantage goes to go to Shula. I think the players are bigger concern here for me just because you mentioned it. I mean, everybody's talking about Donald and don't get me wrong. Donald's a big part of this, but that dude, Braden Fisk, can play that dude, Pune 4 can stop the run. Everybody, it's so funny when they signed Pune 4 and I was like, I like that signing everybody in this chip. Oh, look at that. They're talking about Pune 4 with the shitty red. That guy can stop the run. That guy stops the run right now better than Jordan Davis. Yeah. And he's a third of the price. He's 5'11". So that was a good signing for them. They have Braden Fisk can get after the quarterback and they have obviously Aaron Donald. That's where the game's going to be going. I mean, if they can destroy that interior like, you know, other teams have then

it could be a long week, but we will say, Jaylen better get that ball out quick as week. I love my boy Prince here, man. He liked, he liked, he likes his game this week against Stafford, but he didn't like the game last week against uh, Case Keenum. Hey, I was a little more, I'm more nervous about Case Keenum than I am at the Stafford. Got it. All right. Well, I will give, well, I will say that man, that Ben Johnson is the real deal right now. You know what I think also is really bad for Nick. That guy got, I mean, that guy Ben Johnson made Nick look like he was a high school football coach. I'll take the high school football coach at St. Prep at your at your school there. What's that guy's name? Roken, I think. Yeah, I'll take his ass before um, also Prince called the game. He said that the Bears would win.

Roken, Roken, Tim Roken. Good coach, man. Good coach. I am by the way, I think they're nationally ranked again. I think you guys are nationally ranked. Don Bosco's up there big time. St. Thomas Aquinas is up there. Couple teams in Texas are up there. Hey, one last thing here, Zander. My beef with with Seth. I do believe Seth. And what he's saying that Nick. Nick is in the way and the reason that they put him up in the booth is because Nick wanted, didn't want Sean Mainon to have any kind of influence on Jalen and that. Nick wanted to have more of a communication with the head coach with a quarterback head coach on the sidelines. You believe any of that? I mean, sure, but I would ask Seth. I mean, would he let some rookie come in and run his entire show? So it's like, it really doesn't make sense because it doesn't.

It doesn't make sense. I believe him, but it doesn't make sense because it's like, all right, you don't want the head coach to have control over the team. Again, if Seth, if you want Nick to be fired, then that's fine, but that's the take. You know, Nick is the head coach of the team, man. Like, you know, I don't know what people want. Again, you cannot like him and want him fired, but that's, that's where you get. I was my take. My take was this. Hey, that may be true, but then again, you're telling me you got a Judas somewhere that's telling you that Nick is in the way. That is clearly true and he covered that up. I mean, I'm, yeah, what was he saying? He was like, I didn't say I got it from inside the building. I said, what's he got up from? What does he mean? Who do you get up? No, what I said was he would you get it from a guy at Tawawa with a slurpee? What you get it from? No, but did he answer? Who was he? Like, was it somebody? Yeah, he answered it. An organization who was he? No, he answered it by saying I can't be involved in anything like this. So hurt my brand and all or some shit.

And I was like, Bro, you're the one that said it. Yeah, but who who would have the authority to speak on that who's not inside the organization? A reporter? Yeah. DeGon, somebody like that shit. Well, DeGon's sitting right next to him. I mean, that's not. Yeah, well, DeGon can't say that because DeGon does get the access. Well, DeGon's buddies with Big Don. Oh, so I know that DeGon used to work on with Jacob. Yeah, he's buddies with Big Don. He texts Big Don. So Big Don's telling? I don't know. I'm not saying Big Don is telling him. I'm telling you what I know about that situation. And if it is DeGon, who is, I mean, DeGon's on the show. Why doesn't DeGon just fucking say it? Yeah, I'm like, and I'm with you 1000% Zander. If it's true, then fire the guy. I mean, just fire Nick. I mean, fire guy was 50 doing 19. Go ahead and fire that try. I mean, do I know anything for sure, but I'll say this.

If it came from DeGon, which I don't know if it did, I don't either. My bet would be it came from Big Don. Wow. So the guy was on the sidelines with the head coach as the bodyguard is saying that Nick is in the way. And by the way, you're not saying that doesn't sound accurate to me. It no, it doesn't. So that means that big, big Dom is more loyal to the Eagles than you bet your ass. He gets a guy's not going to throw Nick under the bus. And let's, unless big Dom knows, well, you're right. Unless the ownership is telling him that shit. Yeah. Unless ownership and somebody's telling him upstairs and saying, Hey, this guy's under the hot seat right now. That could be. Wow. What a, hey, that tells you about a little toxic culture, though, you have inside that room. And that's not a good thing to have heading into a Rams game.

Is it? Who knows? It's okay. Hey, I'm going to tell you. Big, big Dom to Nick, the classic Michael Corleone de Frida. You're nothing to me now. Not a brother, not a friend. I don't want to know you or what you do. I want you to tell me when you're coming, when our mother's here. Yeah. Exactly right. And so I won't be here. And he causes the door on the check, too. Oh, man, he has Michael Corleone, hey, big Z. I'll tell you one thing. This is the funnest year so far out of the gate covering the bill and off the Eagles. I really. So all the bonus years are. Oh, yeah, because you know why? It constant content. These people tonight quit. That we got Zach Bonwatch. Holy shit, we got Tavante Smith watch.

Remember, man, the first four weeks of 24 were ugly. Yeah, and then it became boring because, you know, me and Xander were doing this as the post game was coming on. We were going, what a shitty ugly one. Because they're killing teams running the ball. They're not doing any until they rip off 11 and a row or so. Shit, like, and everybody was starting to do this, right? And he goes, and I was like, now you've got this. It's kind of like sea sawing a bit. You think this game here right now is a pivotal game in the year? Yeah, thoroughly for that. I think we'll learn about the team because they're back against a wall tough game last week. You know, good opponent. I think you'll learn something, but no, it's not pivotal. Last one here. So if they get blown out, it signs of things that. Well, see, that's a different question. Depending on the outcome, I think could determine how pivotal it is. How about if they lose a close one?

Yeah, they'll be dead. I mean, it's a good team. You know, you're not playing. It's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's NFL. You know, like, dude, you can lose games like. Eagles fans do this and I'm guilty of this too, right? We think we're going to win every game. You should. And then they lose one game and you're all fucked up. And it's like, dude, even if we're great, you're going to lose some games. I promise. So we have this ability to like make every loss seem like it's the end of the world. Probably as we are right now with the Bears, but the way you lose a game does change the perception naturally, right? If you lose to the Bears and a nail bider, that's a different talking point that week than if you get be 27 to 7 in case Keenam is the MVP. Okay. So let's see how it looks. If they get blown out two straight weeks, that's, that's, that. I think even Prince might be in here wondering what's going on. I know. Hey, hey, Xander, last one here, this thing here with,

so Philipp 500 sends me a video. I post it. It's got already 80,000 views on this thing here. I said, hey, Seth, so let me get this right. Somebody in the Eagle organization told Seth, join her that the reasons Sean Manning's in the booth and not in the sideline is because the head coach wants Jalen Hertz and the OC to have one-on-one conversations and don't want them to have one-on-one conversations with one another. So someone in the Eagle organization is a Judas to Nick Suryani. Question mark, this is a massive statement if true on how toxic the organization is. You'll take your things out of context. You take, he says something like you think of my content. I'm like taking your content. I'm just taking your words and you just want them against you, Jr. Take it, is that what he said to you? You're taking his content? Yeah. The last, you guys might all have gripes with big seals. The last thing you can ever say about big seals and that he needs to take content from someone.

Hey, I was like, what? I'm sure we can talk about the Eagles for four hours a day and fucking June. All right. All right. I don't want to hear that. Hey. I don't want to hear that crap. Hey, and then when he blocked, he ended up blocking me. Seth, join her block me tonight because he got caught in a lie about the Eagles. You're not going to wind it about it on next now. No, no, no, I went like this. I go, he's worried about it. He's worried. No, he, hey, so he was worried about his brand. More so than answering the question. So he blocked me and I was like, okay, Seth, you don't have to answer anything when somebody calls you out on it. Because I know those vaginas over at WIP aren't going to question you on how and who gave you that information. So I'm like, Hey, hey, man. Hey, Zander. I don't know what's going on. Don't fuck with me like that.

I don't know what's going on. I think it's something that's going to be a one whale of a football game on Sunday. I can't wait. Brother, I appreciate you more. Oh, how about this tomorrow, Mike North? Wonder what he's going to say about that. What do you mean they beat the ever-living shit out of us? He picked them too. He said, even with case kingdom, they're going to win. See, unlike Prince change in the narrative. Because of course, he went with case kingdom heading into that game. Mike North actually said, I got the, I got the bears on it. So, oh, supers, let's do the supers, dude. Here's my super. Ready? Yeah. Yeah. Are the 2026 Eagles ass cheeks? Well, if you think, hey, how you feel about my nine prediction?

I'm not going to criticize you for it right now. Yeah. Okay. After my super, everybody. All right, that's what I don't, I don't, I don't think yet. I don't think, gosh, I don't think yet. I don't know. I don't think yet. I think it's getting there. All right, here we go. Let's get to some supers. All right, we'll get the supers. Here's Mr. Hill. We're not Mr. Hill. Still, your takes are good, but in Andy's defense, Banner never gave Donovan Whiteouts. No, he didn't. No, he didn't. I'm very often wondered how Donovan would do with a roster like we built. Oh, God. He'd be on the way through for five K with Adrian DeBos. He would, he would have been a whole friend. CTAG says, the head coach is getting exposed. No answers schematically. No leadership or culture.

This attitude of the team falls on the head coach. Well, I agree. You're the head of the snake. You're the head coach. You want to talk about leadership culture, mentality, attitude, all those things? That's the coach. That's the coach. I coached. You're telling me, wait, are you guys telling me the team that we just played on Monday night hasn't taken on the personality of their head coach? That's two years in a row. They out physicaled us, outmand us, outclassed us, ran the ball down our throat and beat the ever-living shit out of us. Yep. Yep. Yep. Absolutely. Absolutely true. Here's my boy, Catch. We're up catch thanks for the $20 Super Chat. Browder, we appreciate that. He says this. Shit runs downhill, starts at the top. Oh, your owner has been the most successful owner in Eagle history. And you have to start there before you start here. I like how sometimes your Eagle fans do this. They start with their feet are right now instead of looking at the collective since

the last 25 years where you've been. I mean, of all the teams in the NLC, what team in the NLC in the last 25 years would you put ahead of the Eagles? What team where? In the NLC. No, NLC. Would you put ahead of the Eagles in the last 25 years? In terms of success? Yeah. I don't know. Maybe the Rams? Maybe the Rams. Maybe. Maybe. And I don't, Seattle maybe. Let's go to AI. What NFC teams in the last 25 years are the best in the NFL? Let's see. Number one. Green Bay Packers, number two Eagles. That's win percentage. Yeah, well, I'll take the Eagles over to Packers. Seahawks have the strongest 15 year peak. Yeah, it's Eagles. It makes Eagles.

Last 25 years, your owner has been the most. It's not the Rams. The Rams aren't even in this. Listen, the Eagles have been the most successful franchise in the NFC in the last 25 years. You know, who are the only other teams with two Super Bowls? The Giants. Giants. Giants. Seahawks. Seahawks Rams. Rams up to one in St. Louis and one in, yep, yep. Okay. Green Bay has not in 25 years because far of one net in the 90s. Um, Giants. Eagles. Sam Fran has it once since since when the 90s? Yeah. Holy shit. That's where you guys better be chirping these Niners, man. They're like Cowboys land right now. Yeah, it's Seahawks. Seahawks. I think it's the end of the way the Giants have been relevant in a decade. Yeah, right. That doctor, that doctor footing a little bit. Yeah. Packers. Packers wanted 10.

That's right. Yeah, but they won one. Yeah, with Aaron. Yeah, right. Yeah, you guys got. All right, let's keep it all. Comeoo dose. What's up brother? Thank you for being a member for 25 months. Is the owner's son still the head of the analytics department? I don't know if he's named head of the analytics department, but he's definitely in there. I believe he is. Yeah. Yeah. Here is Martin. We got that one. Martin, thank you brother. Martin says, I see Jalen and Houston, CJ is awful. CJ is trash. I've been saying that for years, but not really long. First year, he had a good year, but once again, what was my always my favorite take? Don't ever draft an Ohio State quarterback. Yeah, it was. It was true. You said that. Here's Martin. Also, if I'm not mistaken, hurts is from Houston. Correct. He is a Houston guy. Channel. That coach's high school football down there, right? Channel view. Yep. Here's in term, the worst case scenario is Nick and Jalen move on from the Eagles next year and we never find out who the problem really was.

Nick sims lucky. Dude, the Eagles are going to always be successful as long as long as how he's in that building. They're good, man. They're good. Tanda, are you a, are you a dusty Niners fan? I didn't know this about you. Tanda. Come on, Tanda. You got, yeah, Tanda, you got to get a W in the 21st century before you start talking heavy dude. Holy moly. That would doubt. Here's Caled. Give me B. John Robinson for hurt. Sun me up. No way. Quarter back, both are running back. Not thank you. Vikings Houston Indianapolis. I see Jalen in Wow. Those are, that's Marm press. Those are three. I he wouldn't, he'd win in all three places there. He would, and he would win more in Houston. But you know what's happening Houston? That offense has worn that defense down the same way you're seeing the Eagle defense get worn down.

That's what you're seeing. Yeah, I checked it out. I looked at the numbers. I come to Viking defenses better without good knowledge. But he's, yeah, I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I mean, they're, the Vikings are very successful in a lot with linebackers and guys, because they bring exotic puts. You know what I mean? So they're, it's a little bit of a different system. But I get your point. DC for life says yo sales and Dan. All right. That's two sales. You know, Cowboys almost snagged Kenny more from the practice club. But now got Joey Porter Jr. from the steel. What you making a deal? I mean, I like it, but is it a big difference? Is he real good? I mean, I thought he was having major problems. Isn't that what Pittsburgh didn't want to pay him? But I will say this, Pittsburgh's done a lot of trading with the Cowboys recently and the Cowboys have made out the better of them. Who's the other two they traded? Not Pickens. They traded Pickens and one other guy. Who's I think a first or second round pick? Who was the other guy? I thought they, I thought it was a 23 draft pick maybe.

So who am I blanking on it? Am I wrong? I might be wrong. I think it was just Pickens. No, it was Pickens. It's now Pickens Porter and there's one other guy. I know it. Come on Cowboys. I know. I do. I do. I do. I don't, I don't, to your point. I don't know how much of a gigantic impact he's going to make. Tackle. That's who it was. Broadway. What's that guy's name? Yeah. Broadway. Jim's. That's who it was. Was he the first round pick? Second round pick. I don't know if he's doing anything, but he got traded there. All right. One more super. Kyle. What up? You think it might come to a point where Hertz tells the front office is either I'm going or serianias. Not because if seriani goes nothing's changing. That's what people got to understand. I hope we don't. No, seriani does go. How do you think Hertz will deal with that? I need everybody to understand from our segment today.

You might hate Nick and that's okay. If Nick goes, it's not going to change that much. They're not hiring a play calling offensive head coach who has total control of the offense. Frank right. I'm telling you right now. No way. They like that. Frank right. Well, because Frank right will play their game. Correct. And you know what? He's won a Super Bowl ring here. Underdog said I'd rather Hertz stand in the vision so we can book two W's. Oh, wait a minute. I got one for you. Wait. What a first coach in New York. What about Hertz went to New York with the Giants? Oh, that was fucking so. I would hate that. I would not be happy with that. The New York Giants. Hell Eagle bro. Shut your bitch ass up, Eagle bro.

Jailin to the commander. Some morning. Jailin to the commanders. Wow, they got Jaden. Yeah, I got you. Jailin Hertz in New York. They make a trade. They end up getting Jeremiah Smith and I have Malik neighbors on the E.O. What about Jailin Hertz to the Dallas Cowboys? Oh my, and that goes to the Eagles. That's it. That's it somewhere else. I don't know. No, you know where that would go? Pittsburgh. I'm going to. I think I think that's headed to Pittsburgh next year. What's Aaron Rogers retires? He's going to go to Pittsburgh because why? Mike McCarthy's there. How he's not sending Jailin inside the other cities. No. Fuck no. He's not sending them a team in the end of C period. You think the Phillies win tonight? You know, you know what? That's like asking me what my wife's making me for dinner tonight. I have no idea.

I mean. I have no idea, dude. I mean, that team is so health or shelter. And you are such a very, you know what has happened to you? Sandra tells me he's a Yankee fan. I'm always happy winning the American League East. No, I'm not. You don't want to they just they just blew out the fucking Red Sox two games in a row. You look like you sound dumb. Really good. Good. Good. So what is that? What do you win a cup? What do you Kobe? That's a good win. John. John. Hey, wait. Hey, what we win a ceremonial Cippy Cup. For beating the Red Sox. Hey, congratulations. You beat your nemesis. Great. Where's my Cippy Cup? Hey, man. I want World Series titles Jackson. There's a thing called monument park. You know what it's called? That's what the legend. I'm not saying. I'm not saying you're wrong about that. Aaron. Judges not the long. I didn't say I was happy. How about the Yankees?

They just blew it. And judge does not belong in monument park. You know why I like that's a place of champions. I'll tell you why I like the Yankees issue. That pitching line up is fucking absurd. That's true. They've Schlitter-free. Garry Cole and Rodon. I mean, they have they have they might not even have to play Rodon in the second and the next round. I mean, they got pitching, dude. Now I just don't know about their defense. And their defense is going to have to hold up. If their pitching doesn't give enough any hits, I mean. Because everyone always does this. They go, hey, look at the lineup that the Yankees have. And I get it. I mean, I. I might have to rock Yankees lit on the show one day. We'll probably lose more subscribers. I mean, right? I mean, Eagle brother, the bullpen is track. That's why you need those starting pitches to go long. So Ben Rice is hitting 556. He had 556 against the Red Sox.

Wow. Belinger hit 333. Underdog day in catching fire, man. That's a team full of full of syspots. I've been saying that for four years. Their theme song used to be about another girl, another dude banging their chick. That team did not build the way you want a team built. Holy shit, Ben. I'm gonna put up some that baseball team. Dude, Ben Rice have 41 bombs this year. Yeah, dude, where you been? That guy's been cooking. Is judge going to be back? Hey, he's a switchheader. He bats left. No, he bats left and he throws right. That's right. No, no, no, he hits the left hand. Hit her. Is that going to be back? Maybe next time, maybe game two of the race series. I think maybe game two, they're talking that he may come back for that series.

Yeah, rice. You're always going to have you notice Xander Yankee Yankee, great. The majority of the team was left hand hitters because the ballpark is built for left hand hitters. Because it's only 305 down the right field wall. I'm rocking Yankee right next week. It's 318, I think, to left to left. Yeah. It's 365 to left center. It used to be 468 or 485 to dead to left dead center. My brother is trying to get me up there for a game because his office is in New York. But man, it's more playoff again to go to a game now, Dave. It is like, wait, to go to a game. Yeah, like an arm and a leg, dude. Bro, you know, my uncle, my aunt's in here. You know what my uncle paid to go for a game down in M.C.T.s. You know, behind home plate, like $5,000 a pop. Well, behind home plate, yeah. Yeah, go see the royals. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, Z to go see the royals. I'll answer your question.

I think the Phillies win. Oh, I don't really. Why? I don't think they're, I don't think they're built to win. You got no, who's pitching tonight? Is it Noah? It is. Is it? It is. All right. That's the no one's either is there. One of two things happens tonight. No, a pitch is a gem. Or Noah gets absolutely fucking sheld. It's going to be no in between. No in between the night. And then Alex core becomes a manager. Maybe. You think that it done broski surprise? I don't think he should. I've always liked the, I've always wanted the Phillies to win. Because I love the city. I love when Philly wins. Like I would be happy if the Phillies won a World Series. If they play versus the Yankees, no, I want to see the Yankees win.

Oh, whoa. I'm going to shit about the Phillies. With that. See, I like, I like your loyalty though, man, because some people like, you know, when they were, well, that's how I feel with the Flyers. I've never been a Flyers fan, but I do like the final. Yeah, we're any Flyers fans in here. Oh, yeah, we got the big year coming. Yeah, they lost seven nothing last night. The season opener at home. Oh, my God. It's been the shit out of all. Eastern Conference finals. Rangers and Flyers, who are you rooting for? Rangers. Oh, my God. I think it's close. Rangers. Dude, you want me to go grab my Rangers lid? That's a sick Ranger lid. Dude, I have what I have a winner classic New York Ranger sweater. I've got to lose seven nothing in a hockey game. The first game of the year.

Man, that's that's there. I tell you what to do. I love that. I love the flyers. I do love that flyer sweater though. Oh, it's horrible. How could you say that? It's horrible. You know why? Because I love that. Well, the greatest sweater in the history of NHL is the Black Oaks. That's a good one, but I think the Rangers are right up there too. It's the original six jerseys. Anybody who was an original 16. Like Redwinks. Like that. Right. Redwinks. Yeah. Yeah. Redwinks. Redwinks. Redwinks are awesome. Dude, I love that Toronto Maple Leaf sweater. What are the best sports cities in the country? Philly. Philly is definitely up there. Philly. Chicago. Chicago's awesome sports city. Black Oaks. Bosses. Bears. Sometimes I wish these dudes would be some of these teams in these bigger cities would fucking like get better. I don't know. I don't know.

Boston is another one. Boston is another. I'm not a fucking Boston. By the way, what the red socks. What a what a dusty name. Well, think about this though in the last two or five. Wait, wait a second. My 25 years. The Bruins of one of time. Like everybody wanted. This is not a Philly sports channel. Hey, Last 25 years. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. Um so in Jongnung level. You mean, 27. That's what we are doing today at St. Six. David. units Legend 22 of these Last News give to his triumphal. Latvian James, l brief intellectline. I want to add to our past, I got to play that's sick. I got that I got sand I got sand from it. I used to have the hat with the patch, but I was 11 years old. I don't think it's still exist.

They gave me a whole gigantic plaque. I got dirt from home plate. Whole thing. I mean, Los Angeles. Let's see if LA has LA. I don't believe it was a good sports city. I think New York is a front runner city. Well, I mean, they have 27 world titles. Well, well, wait a minute. But that I'm saying that's going to get filling has front runner fans and they got to. Oh, wait a minute. The Yankees are different than New York sports fans because Yankee fans are legendary. How the fuck could you be a match fan? You can't. Like do meds fans exist? You can. How are you a meds fan? Here I'll give it to you. 1969. They went to the World Series in 1973. 1986. And 2000. And the SNY now runs those fuckers on a loop.

I was talking to some dude. He's like, he's like a New York guy. And he's like, yeah, I'm a Dodgers fan. I'm like, bro, what? He's like, yeah, well, there was a Brooklyn Dodgers. I'm like, all right. So you followed him to LA where you got the Yankees. By the way, I said this this morning. Nobody will everybody won't want to medic because they're all filled off you buttercups in here now. Well, I can't believe it. The city I grew up in is filled with fucking butter balls. The most iconic logo in all of sports, not just baseball. It's not close. It's not even. It's not it's not a debate. There's no debate. We talk for baseball. You know the history. Hey, you know the history of the NY. It's for New York City policeman that I've fallen back. Yeah, I did. Hundreds. Thank you. I have with the bodies. Nice. The butter boots. Dude, the New York Yankees were the first to put numbers on their jerseys. They were the first to put pinstripes.

They were the first really to have a ballpark like that ballpark at Yankee Stadium. I went to the original and then I went to the second one. Original one that had P green. And I and I saw all them guys Mike. My cousin used to take us there to Yankee games. I used to see months and then I saw those great Yankee teams of the 70s when I was growing up. Bro, and then Zander, you know the ultimate. I'll tell you guys this here. One last story here, Zander. So when I was doing my show in Tampa. I was like, dude, I get this look. Guy knocks on the door. He comes into my studio. It's George Steinbreder. Mr. Steinbreder. He goes, there. I see your big Yankee fan. And it was legendary man. He would come in every month during the season. And he would come in. He'd sit there and talk with me, Mr. Steinbreder. Hey, let's come over to Rocky Point. We'll have lunch. Once a week I had lunch at Rocky Point, where his office is were in Tampa.

With George Steinbreder at a place called Landries. And me and him would sit there and you know, and I go, you know, you bought the team on January 3rd, 1973 from CBS. And he goes, how do you know this? That's my birthday. That's when Babe Ruth was also purchased this was January 3rd to be in New York, Yankee from the Red Sox. Hey, you know all this history of the ego. Man, I'm a Yankee fan. I've been a Yankee fan my whole life growing up. Fucking love that thing, man. Well, you know how I became a Yankee fan. No, that grew up in the projects. Pop left them at, I don't know, eight years old. And he worked the paper wrap delivering newspapers. So when he was eight or nine years old, he saved up and bought one of the mini radios. There's a little black radios that you could put. Yeah. And he only got one station. Yeah. And he said that he could wire it to based on where he was. And it was Yankee's baseball. So he grew up listening to Yankee's. Can't why I love baseball now.

Prince I was born January 3rd. Go ahead, man. I'm sorry. His guy Prince, man. I was born January 3rd 1963. I get worth the Aver. Zee is secretly an anti-filling mole with these New York affiliations. Be honest, Racini, is your hero. Appreciate it. Racini's my hero. I have no New York affiliations. I grew up in Janken town, which is in Montgomery County. I went to San Joe's Prep for high school. I went to grade school and Glenside. All right. It's high school in the city. San Joe's Prep. And I live in Box County right now. What do you mean? I got New York affiliations. I've never lived outside the state of Pennsylvania. Other than when I went to college and when I lived in Houston for two years. You know, Hank and how you succumb on the program too. I used to live on a short boulevard in Tampa. And we go over to their house. Mr. Steinbrenner is one of the, you know, when you go to Tampa, dude, Tampa's Yankee country.

It's not race country. You know what Steinbrenner did one year? I'm on the air. Guess what? He goes, Dan, come down to the Tampa Police Department. You know what he did? He bought the Tampa Police Department a brand new car. And Zander, he put the NY logo on all the way. And he said, and he said, Oh, I know on all the Tampa police. The raised guy Vince the Moli, fucking went nuts. When he saw that the Yankees had bought all police cars in Tampa. When absolutely nuts, but there's no baseball on Tampa without George Steinbren. George Steinbrenner is one of the absolutely greatest people I've ever met in my life. What a winner man. And if he were alive today, he'd throw up on you the way that you wrote for the Yankees winning. I said good win for the Yankees last night. She's a fucking fucking. I didn't say that. All right, big Z. We got your brother. Thank you so much, man. By the way, Jake,

you're gonna join us in a couple of minutes, man. I do. Thank you, brother. Appreciate you, man. Ladies, you got it. That is what I'm a doubt, man. That's our boy, big Z. Oh, yeah. Thank you very much. Hey, wonderful time there. Thank, Prince. You're not born in 1973. Hey, Prince, what gave that away? Yeah. I was born on January 3rd. Let me, hey, listen, wait a second. Standbatter was a time where it did anything to win. G, what an awful concept. I'll do anything to win. Yeah. Hey, wait a minute. Here's my favorite. Where's Dick Train? Where's Dick Train? I saw Dick Train. I got to go back here with Dick Train here. Yeah, I saw this. Where's Dick Train here? Did he, he said something here back here? Where is he? Here we go. You know, the one thing you're lying about, your quarterback being elite. Hey, how you doing?

Dude, I'll tell you what, George Steinbrenner was very giving in the Tampa area, things that you would never know. Millions and millions of dollars he would give away to needy kids. I remember one day, man, a little league team had their equipment stolen. George went in there, but the whole league, all equipment. He was just absolutely awesome, man. I love, I love George Steinbrenner. You that got to be the worst nickname, ever. Yeah. Dude, Pedro was one of my, hey, when he, when he threw, what's his name on his head? Zimmer. Dude, that was one of the greatest scenes of all time. He threw it, was that it? I think that was a Yankee Stadium. He threw Zimmer on his head. At Yankee Stadium, Kazimar went out after him and Pedro just threw him on his, threw his 80 year old guy on his head.

Oh, man. Hey, was Zimmer the coach? Was Zimmer the manager in that Bucky Dent game? Was he the manager in that game? Or was that the other guy that was in the, um, I think Zimmer may have been the manager of the Red Sox in that Bucky Dent game. And George didn't give a fuck. He would call your ass out on national television. Hey, remember what he, what did he call the Deke Matzui? Not a Deke Matzui. Who's the other guy? The pitcher, a Deke Arabu. Remember he called them the fat toad? He called him, he called him a fat toad. And we called, what was it? He called Dob Winfield, Mr. May. Because remember they were trying, they hired him and they, they signed him to take over for Reggie.

They got him from the pod, uh, Padre, they got him from the Padres. And they used to call him Mr. May. But no, he did. He called Winfield, Mr. May. Hey, here he is, Mr. May. And a Deke Arabu, he called them the fat toad. Hey, man, Mr. DeBartolo is one of my dear friends. I get him on all my shows all the time. He is such a great guy. He is really a generous and wonderful man. And Mr. DeBartolo is a special dude. Yes, he, you're right. Bless you ever the next one. When Arod got swung and Arod can't fight, do win for his legs. Should have shot Jeeter. Let me know you should have shot Arod. You know the movie, the other guys should have shot Arod.

I always said this, friends. When they, when they signed Arod, I compared this, friends. It was like back in the day when Yankees got Maris. I think they got him from the Indians. And they got Maris and Maris won two MVP awards. And he obviously hit the 61-ohm runs. But Manel was a homegrown guy. Arod was never going to win the affection of New York fans. And he was just never gonna be considered a Yanke. And Arod was a much better player than Jeeter. Home runs, RBI's, batting average. He's a better ball player. But any of his many gold gloves as a shortstop as Jeeter did. But you're never gonna look at Arod in the same light as their Jeeter. It's just not because Jeeter was a captain of the team.

David Wells threw a perfect game hung up. Dude, David Wells, as a matter of fact, that is a great call. Do I still have that guy in my phone? You just gave me an idea, David? I do. David losing Tampa. We didn't need Arod, those sales. In fact, we had Jeeter. No, we didn't need Arod. Tori was actually a train wreck with the Metz, the Braves. Not so much with the Braves. He may have been in Toronto before the guy who went to Atlanta. So he may have been up there, but I don't think, I don't know if he was in Toronto, but I know he was in St. Louis. He was with the Metz. And Tori was a good player, too, dude.

There's Dick Drain. Dan Celiola, Taylor, and it's as elite Josh Allen as a turnover machine. Pretender no rings. Has no bearing on who's better. Allen's a superior player. Both are. Come on, Dick Drain. So a channel leads it goes to Houston or whatever. Who should be the next quarterback for the Eagles future? Camario Taylor. Mariano Rivera, dude, I know we're a football show, but let me tell you something. Mariano Rivera was more important than Derek Jeeter. There's one player that was more responsible for the Yankee dominance. For that whole decade and a half was Mariano Rivera.

They've replaced Jeeter. They've never replaced, replace Mariano Rivera. What was the one determining factor that the Yankees had over everyone else was Rivera? Rivera is responsible for more wins than any Yankee pitcher. In history. And he is the difference. And why the Yankees are dominant like they used to be is because of Mariano Rivera. Jeeter was a great player and is a great player. Mariano Rivera though was the difference maker in the American leg east. It was completely the different. He was just completely the difference. He's the great. He's greater than God's edge. He's the greatest pitcher in Yankee history. Ford as a starter. I think Sebastian is overrated. But there's no question. Mariano Rivera is one of the top five, 10, maybe not five, but top 10 Yankees of all time.

If I had to pick the top 10 Yankees of all time, Ruth. Gary. Demagio. Ruth Gary Demagio. Manel. Oh man, it's so hard. I'm going to go bear. I'll go jeeter six. I'll go where varia seven. I'll go forward eight.

See, I don't think Reggie played long enough. I would. Was 51. What's the kid in center? Who's the guy in center? Yeah, bears got 10 championships. Bernie Williams. Put Bernie Williams nine. Resudo now. Monson. Ruth. Gary. Demagio. Manel. Vera. Jeeter. Rivera. Bernie Williams.

Thurman. Monson. Probably. I'm going to go there. Okay. Keep talking Yankees will be homesune fools. Let's talk about the goat LeBron James and Sixers. Hey, you'll win 45 games if you're lucky, Dick Train. Hey, Dick Train. If that team wins 48 games, I'll be stunned. They'll be a great watch. Be a great watch. But viewing 48 games, I'll be stunned. Yeah, he was good. I thought David Cohen was better with the Metz. So it's how do you feel about July, Daniel, starting this week for Tampa? I personally ruling for him. I've seen him play at Kansas.

They put him in a position to keep the offense manageable. Yeah, I remember him at Kansas. What wasn't he a Bama transfer? Where did he play prior to Kansas? Did he play at Bama? I think I saw that kid to J.A. kid play the other one. Yeah, I think you're right. I saw him two years ago. If I'm not mistaken, I thought he played, I thought he played at Alabama, then he transferred to Kansas. Maybe he was somewhere else. Metz. He was good. He was a deck. And Metz. He was good. It's a good RBI guy. Yeah, I do. La Prada. Hey, hey, dude. Hey, honestly, man, I a coyote. How do you like feel about that, dude? Like, um, helicoptering in from New York.

Some folks in Philly don't have a problem with that. Okay, Kansas sells. Okay. How do you feel about it in parachute, Nenon? Like, you know, Posada was the best Yankee. 80. It's fools have no intelligence. Or hey, Posada was the best Yankee. I think you might want to catch Yogi's the greatest World Series catcher in the history of the sport. And it's not close. Actually, Yogi is the greatest postseason. World Series players statistically in baseball history. There's nobody better than Yogi. Yogi owns most games, most runs. Here, World Series records by Yogi Barra. It's embarrassing. He's got 10 wins. Yogi Barra World Series records.

Most appearances, 14 series, most games played 75, most hits, doubles, singles, games caught, most catcher putouts, first pitch, home runs. And he's got 10 ranks. Here's Barra stats too in the World Series and in playing in the series. Yogi hit. 429, 417, 360, 320, 220 to 318, 273. Posada. Andy Patted better get off. Hey, 14 he played in 14 World Series.

No, not games. 14 World Series. Barra played in. See what I mean, yeah, I played in 14, 47, 49, 50, get this. 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 5 in a row. Then he went 55, 56, 57, 58, 60, 61, 62, 63. This guy missed like the World Series like three times in his career. That's it. Hooray, Posada. Polonio, Bernie Williams, were pivotal in my air watching Inky baseball. Yeah. Yeah, they did a great job building that baseball team through the, through free agency and through mine. By the way, if you remember right, everybody, Polonio came over from the reds.

Posada and Williams were homegrown. Pettit was homegrown. Jeter was homegrown. Trying to think anybody else. That was homegrown on that team. Bernie Williams was homegrown, as I said. Mariana Rivera was homegrown. Most all those players were homegrown. Yeah, the steroid ever does it count. Yeah, it does. Baseball didn't have a steroid policy then. They didn't have a steroid policy. They didn't have an infetamine policy. They didn't have any of that. Nobody was telling these guys they couldn't take them. What because you want to be a holier than down, dick train. That you want to say that, um, the steroid era. Well, how many pictures and catchers do you think were taking steroids?

How many are steroids? How many pictures during that era? We're taking steroids as well. Almost all of them who like garicanya. Guy, when he MP, where with the Dodgers and he was a juicer. Oh, okay. Thanks to my husband for being the best. We put the football helmets out every season we got. Oh, is that for what for Halloween? That's dope. Yeah, my wife does that too, man. My wife addresses the house up all the time when it comes to, uh, like, uh, Halloween and shit like that. We have a fun time, man. Rand's running back to end of Williams and Corham will combine for 150 yards and control the game for the Rams. Yeah. I'm not going to say that.

I'm not going to say that. Sales. Who would you prefer to close the game? Sandman or Eccrously? Dude, I'll tell you why I would take over Eccrously to do with the Padres. I think Eccrously was a really great. Remember something about Eccrously. Eccrously actually threw a no hitter as a pitcher for the Cleveland Indians. And he was a starter for a long time and a really good starter for a long time. And then when he got the Boston, they turned them into, or not Boston, he got the, um, the Oakland A's and they turned them into a reliever. But for years and years and years, he was a starting pitcher. And he was a pretty good, you know, he was kind of, you know, what the pitcher in Atlanta was, Smolts. Smolts was gone his way to winning 300 games. Then they needed a bullpen guy. After Molder fainted and faded and went away. And they needed a closer in Atlanta. So that's where they got Smolts to go to closing. And Nettis Eccrously was a great starting pitcher.

Like I said, he pitched a no hitter on Monday night baseball, believe it or not. It could have been against the Yankees. He did that actually when he pitched for, um, when he pitched for the tribe. Trevor Hoffman. I got great, I got, I'm really good friends here. I got a great picture of me and Trevor hang on here. I got to show you this. I got a great picture of me and Trevor. Trevor Hoffman. Trevor Hoffman. Dan Ciliu. There's big sales and Trevor Hoffman. Bam. Second greatest closer in baseball history. It's my boy. Trevor Hoffman. The guy could pitch, dude. I enjoyed him, man.

I'm a big baseball fan. If I was a billionaire, I pay back all the welfare that her taters. Scammed out of their respective state governments. If I was a Hertz fan, I'd be sending back all my WIC checks that I bet each week. When I put in my food stamps, hey, I bet my food stamps number and my blue food stamps. I'm Chandler Hertz this week. Hey, hey, hey, I put my WIC check out. Hey, man, I bet my WIC check this week on Hertz. Not to throw two picks against the Titans. Yeah, hey, when you bet and would staff for your bet and money, when your bet and would hurt your bet and WIC checks. Hey, what are you putting up this week?

Yeah, I'm putting up my unemployment check and my WIC money. Oh my God. Hey, I'm putting up my WIC money. Who's your vocal leader on this team? All the captions we have are all nice guys that lead by example. Where's our dogs? I went things aren't going well. You don't have any of them. You don't have a guy like that. Tells people to shut up. Hey, yeah, hey, I like to make a bet on Stafford. Here's $200. First score, Monta Adams. Here's the next guy coming up to the table. Yeah, I like to bet my WIC check and my $14.88 on employment check that hurts second half doesn't score.

Here's here's here's my red. The reds are 20s. I don't know, sir. I don't think we take WIC checks. Come on, man. How could you not take a WIC check? You need some dogs. Like we have Trent Williams. I love Trent Williams, man. He likes living dangerously. I bet on hurts to throw for $132 this week and 18 yards Russian. Touchdown to two pecs. That's living dangerously. When he ride was caught using steroids, I was shocked. Really? Any guy that was caught kissing a mirror?

And then asking Katie Kirk, how can I make people like me? Yeah, that's not somebody I dig. Hey, how come people don't like me? Who cares? Will you set joiner? Will you set joiner? I'm sorry. I can't. Hey, I'm sorry, I apologize. I shouldn't do that. It's Alexander's dad would say I'm punched. Sorry, you know what? I'm going to leave O's at the loan. He after I drug his ass for about 24 hours. Call them out for his bullshit. I'm going to leave him alone. It's okay. He go tell some more lies on that bullshit post game show his. If the Eagles run the ball 30 times, they'll beat the Rams. Only way to win the game is the, that's right. That's right.

So I hope Nads super chat last week went through. They can't so that you know, said this 100 times better than most cover. Yeah, he is. He is. Except when he takes his fan, only when he keeps his fanboy hat on. I love killing. Any time, you notice, anytime shit goes sideways with Jalen hurts, it's next fall. Comment team with Eagle fans, same with Prince a little bit. Anything goes wrong with the team, it's next fall. Anything that goes great with the team, it's all Jalen and Nick has nothing to do with it. Seth was a much better player than Silio. Oh, absolutely. Hey, thanks for the epiphany, Dick Train.

Wow. My wife said that the other day, no disrespect, right, honey? Michael Irving's a more famous guy than you as a hurricane. None taken. All right, fair enough. I will. I'm not. Hey, gee. Michael Irving's. I'm not. Hey, gee. Michael Irving's more famous than you. Wow. Really? By the way, can I'm doing it? Next Sunday, she don't believe it. I'm doing a Netflix show. A Netflix sports, the White House, with Michael Irving and Willie McGinnisd. They're even get this, they're sending a car down for me. To pick me up early in the morning. And I've got to go up there for about three hours. They're going to tape it.

They're going to play it Monday. They're going to drive me back. Yeah. Michael Irving's show. It's this one. It's on Netflix sports. They've asked me twice. I turned them down once already. I can't do it again. My wife says, dude, I did a show last night with my hurricane buddies. It's fucking awesome. Where's this thing? Here, no, that's not it. Yeah. Yeah, I'm doing this show. Michael Irving's show. Mike's got it. Mike's got a show in Netflix. It's called the White House. I'm going to send it to you. And I'm going on. He's sending a car because he goes, I don't believe you're getting your car and come up here and see me. So we're going to send a car to get you. Get out of the house for one.

I know, I know that's my. Be careful. So sending a car might be it. Yeah. You mean like Tommy. Hey, good fellows. Oh, no. I show up and they blast me in the back of the head. All these true fans get to eat at the table. Well, no, you get to eat at the little kitty table with the little sippy cup. You know, you know, you had to big people table. You got where the adults say it and you got where they are sets down there with the little sippy cup. You know, step still. Watch your feet, Rayas. No, no, no, no. Keep your hands on the table, Rayas. Stop it. Rayas, you're spilling your milk. Yeah, man, I got this picture here that. Michael wants me to promote my appearance.

I got it here. I want to get it. I want to get it. I want to get it. I want to get it. And it's promoting my appearance. On the show. What the hell is it? Here's the show I was on last night. I was on this thing last night with Benny Blades. Uh, Tolbert Bane, Ruben Bane's uncle. And Alonzo Heisman. Dude, let me tell you what happened last night. So I was only supposed to go on for 45 minutes. I was going to go on for 45 minutes. I was going to go on for 45 minutes. Who's by the way, I didn't realize this. Penny Blades is the second all time leading tackler in Detroit Lions history. And he's one of my dear friends and one of my brothers. Tolbert was there. And all of a sudden, Alonzo jumped in. I hadn't seen Alonzo in a long time. I'd been talking with him. But he jumped on, man, we, when we sat there for two hours.

And he was a very, very, very young person. And I mean, I've known those guys since I was 19. We had dude, when you know people for like. Since you were 19 years old, you're 60. That's cool. I mean, when I know those guys 40 years. Her tailors and a sails can't drink juice before bed. The pain in it. Wow. I like that. Being in bed. Wow, man. Your man cars been removed many times. I heard some of that show. That was a good show. It tuned in. Oh, that's great, dude. Where those guys great. Those guys were all, hey, man, I love being a Miami hurricane. I do. I love being a hurricane. That was so much fun last night. I had seen them guys in like.

Ever. My wife is listening to the show downstairs. And she's like, you better get back to Miami. They said the reason I'm not in the Miami Hall of Fame. Is because I don't go home enough. It's probably true. I'm just not pepsy you. Hey, Reyes, you can't drink anymore Pepsi, man. Be up all night, guy. I don't know what happened. Jason cold. That's fine. It's too late now. We're not. We'll get him. We're not. Thank you. It's just one of the test. Hurricanes, pod you did last night sounded a lot of fun.

Great stories from the year. Denny. Thank you for checking that out, man. I didn't watch it too, and you said I was like a stand-up comedian. And we were just telling all kinds of great Jerome Brown stories. Dude, those Jerome Brown stories, you guys have heard many of them. And Denny, Jerome introduced me to Reggie. And those two guys together, man, we're funny as shit. Jerome Brown and Reggie White were just so much fun to be around. Hey, I've asked you guys this before. What's the name of the place in the fill in the Philly area? Zander, is it called the flats? Well, Jerome and Reggie used to put like a barbecue on every summer in the flats. Am I right when I'm saying that? The flats? And they would put this like big time barbecue on for all the inner city kids. And there'd be these barbecue pits.

And everybody would call them the chicken. There'd be ribs. There'd be all of this. And I had gone up twice when I was a kid for that. I was in the league. I was playing and I remember it was in the offseason prior to the season started. And we would go up there. Badlands. Is that right? That's what it's called. Well, something was in a big park. And Reggie and Jerome would get all these grills. And all the kids from around the area there would come in there and you get a free play. You get as many as much food as you wanted. And then we'd play some football, touch football. I brought up my Buckingeer gear. Like I had my bucks jersey and the Eagles had to. I think they had their green practice jersey. Shit, Seth May have even been there. So it was so much fun. And we were talking about all that. How many Jerome broke up at Clan Rally? He called me up to Tampa or up to Brooksville to break up a Clan Rally.

I remember telling him I go, dude, Luke Overhouse is a racist. He's going to see me on TV here up here breaking up a Clan Rally. He goes, yeah, it might be good for you. And I went, shut up. Man, we were very close. The plateau. I think that's it. I think that's it, dude. Twitch, that's something right? Plateau. It feels playing turkey bowl ball. Hey. So this team isn't doing the stuff that needs to be done to get ready to play. IE film, study, and knowledge of who you're playing against. I don't think it's that, dude. I really don't. Hey, Mike, I just don't think yours is talented as you've been the last four years.

Prince disagrees. Prince, tell me if I'm speaking right. Prince thinks they're just as, I don't think he thinks they're just as talented. But he thinks I believe he thinks they're talented enough. I don't. I don't. If I'm Clint, I'm extremely disappointed with the play of the D line. Yeah, but you know what you don't want to do, dude? You don't want to come down on them too hard, but you want to be in their face. You got to play better guys. Because you got too much of a season ahead of you. Mega, 14, what is it? 14 games ahead of you? Come on, man. You can't get crazy here. So it's what your morning, morning radio show called. How can I tune in? Yeah, you know what? I stopped doing that thing in Tampa because just no money. But I'm still doing the sports grade from 12 to 1.

I do the show Monday to Friday. You can tune in every single Monday to Friday on sports grade. We do that. Then we do here. And so those are the two shows we're doing right now. It feels compared Carter to Jerome, the disrespect. I think Carter has Jerome Brown ability. I still do. And Carter has a lot of Jerome characteristics. Jerome took plays off, dude. And you know the way you didn't, hey, you know why you didn't see the glaring plays that Jerome took off? Because Reggie never took them off. Reggie covered that shit. Reggie got a sack in every fucking game he played. As an NFL football player. So when you get a guy playing like that next to you, you take two or three plays off. You're not going to really see that. And you know, you had you had Reggie next to you.

Okay. Come on, sales to Bears defense was talented. In case Keenam is in talented either. What's in talented and Keenam wasn't and isn't talented either. You can't call it. You can't tell me the Bears have more talent than Eagles to beat them by 20. I think that's a great point. Being soft. I told you flat out those guys aren't playing well. Might be in soft on them. Is Derek Thomas in the Hall of Fame? Yes. Derek Thomas South Florida kid. And went out of Bama. Derek Thomas is a great human being.

Overrated paid DTs. We got it. It's embarrassing. It's embarrassing. Especially when you guys are paying them $60 million and they're getting run on. I'm a 9 or a fan, but it's criminal that those Eagle teams with their defenses have no super balls to show for it. It was a great defense. It Mike, if that Eagle team played in today's NFL, they'd have one. You know why? Back then, there's no free agency. Look, we're going against the giant teams, the red skin teams, the 49er teams, those bills teams. All of them had core guys forever. Those teams would never be intact. And I don't get this. You couldn't pay. You couldn't pay gangrene.

Seth would make 25 to 30 million. Reggie would make 50 million. Jerome would make 40 million. Height Simmons would make 35 million, 38. Eric Allen would make 39, 35. Dude, you couldn't keep that, you couldn't keep that defense together. They would just and the New York defense, L.T. Carson, you know, I mean, the other dude on the other side, banks, Jim Bert, letter Marshall, you're not keeping that shit together. Norman Brain, Braimond wasn't paying that he didn't want to pay Reggie. He didn't want to pay him.

As a matter of fact, I think it was more so that Reggie and some of his comments about the Jewish community is why Reggie White was no longer a Philadelphia Eagle. You want to be candid. Reggie's religious beliefs, I think Rob the owner and I know Norman Braimond. I think his comments towards the Jewish community was the reason why Reggie White was no longer a Philadelphia Eagle. You know, Ray Dittinger, I love him the death, but they don't really bring that up that much. But Reggie's religious and religion really pushed Norman Braimond over the edge saying, yeah, he's overrated. He's passed his time and okay.

Hey, sales, did you see more emotion? I did. I did. I saw more emotion on Sunday night than I've seen the long time. Reggie died from the same ailment and he died in the sleep apnea. Yeah, yeah. Let's see here. Reggie White was unblockable. So it's Taylor and it's Reggie. What did Reggie say with his? Well, it had an anti-Jewish slang tilt towards not being there.

I don't want to go too deep into it. I think you can Google it. There's many videos that I'm talking. You can make your own assessment. There's just an opinion of mine. Norman Braimond being Jewish and all. I think he had a problem with Reggie's religious convictions. I really do. And I think that really was the main reason. It wasn't mean because Reggie went up to Green Bay and he tore him up and won a Super Bowl up there. All right. Let me pay some bills here. Our great friends at Morgan and Morgan.
