[Music] [Music] Yo, what is up everybody? Welcome into the show. You’re watching Philadelphia Eagles. Now, it is a beautiful Wednesday, December 10th, and we’re live right here on the show. My name is Chase Senior. As always, no matter where you are, how you’re tuned in, thank you so much for making today’s show a part of your day. As every single day, we talk all things Eagles right here on the program a lot. And I mean a lot to get into and talk about here. We’ll be live for the next hour to 90 minutes. Philadelphia today making a roster move that I think fell under the radar. Why is Jaylen Herd struggling? What’s going on with the Eagles franchise quarterback? Is this offense getting fixed? Do you have belief and confidence coming off that performance on Monday Night Football against the Chargers? I’m going to explain why I’m encouraged by some things that I saw. We’ll do an Eagles Raiders preview. I know Las Vegas not a good team, but a lot to talk about with that ball game coming up on Sunday. A big one obviously for the Eagles considering what has happened over the last three games during this skid. And then we’ll round out with the mailbag. So get those questions in. It’s very simple. Love opening up the floor and chopping it up with all of the real ones. Use the hashtag Eagles or send in a super chat. Now, Nick Serriani just spoke moments ago and he didn’t really have too many notable things to say, but this is a pretty big development for the Eagles and obviously Eagles fans out there because we know how important Lane Johnson is to this football team and this year Philadelphia 0 and3 without him. I think Fred Johnson is a good backup tackle. Obviously, he’s not Lane Johnson. One of the best players in the history of this organization. And so Nick Serriani today did not give an update on whether Lane would practice this week. The Eagles do have a walkthrough today. They’ll release an approximation of the injury report. Keep in mind they played on Monday night, had to come all the way back to Philadelphia. So this is a short week in this leadup to the Raiders game. But considering that Lane Johnson did not go on injured reserve, this would be the general time frame that the Eagles expected for his return. Also, Adam Shfter saying yesterday that the Eagles do believe that he is getting close to a return, whether it be this week against Las Vegas, maybe next week on the road against Washington. And what a profound impact he’s been able to have on this Eagles organization this year. Philadelphia 0 and3 without him. All time with him the Eagles are 12062 and1. That is a winning percentage of nearly 66%. Without Lane Johnson, that winning percentage goes down from nearly 66% to 35.7% and the Eagles are now 15 and 27 without him. I know that he’s starting to get a little bit older, but Lane Johnson in 2025 has still been one of the best right tackles in football. Overall PFF grade of 77.6, 17th among 76 tackles, a pass blocking grade, top 10 in the league by the time that he went out with that Liz Frank injury, 81.3, run blocking grade of 69.5. That ranked 29th. But keep in mind that this entire Eagles offensive line has struggled with run blocking this year. And here are the big numbers here with Lane protecting that front side for Jaylen Herz. Zero sacks allowed, zero hits allowed, only seven pressures given up. Now, I mentioned a moment ago that we’re going to do a mailbag for segment number four during the live show today. I wasn’t lying. No cap. We got so much content to get into. Get involved and start getting your questions in right now. Use the hashtag eagles or send in a super chat. And if you’re ready to talk some birds, we have 330 people watching on this Wednesday.

You’re watching Philadelphia Eagles now. My name is Chase Senior and as always, no matter where you are, how you’re tuned in, thank you so much for making today’s show a part of your day. Couple of topics that I want to get into here. The Eagles made a roster move that I think has fallen under the radar. And also, will the Philadelphia Eagles bench Jaylen Herz? Head coach Nick Serriani was asked that question this morning on WIP. I have a lot of thoughts on this and I agree with the stance that Sirriani has taken. But let’s begin here. Coming up on Sunday, week 15, as the 2025 regular season really closes down and winds down, obviously the Birds going to be taking on the Las Vegas Raiders. Inside the walls here at Chat Sports, we have some really talented content creators. That includes Mitchell Rens, the host of the Raiders Report. And I think the competition brings the best out of everybody. But leaguewide, Eagles fans, Raiders fans considered to be the two most passionate fan bases in all of football. So, I want to test something out and I want to see which fan base has the more passionate fans. Is it the Seagulls fan base? Is it the Raiders fan base? Well, over the last 7 days, Philadelphia Eagles now has picked up 856 new subscribers as we’re closing in on 140,000. The Raiders report 436. Can we build upon this number and crush Raider Nation? Hit that subscribe button and in the process you’ll get elite free daily content on the Philadelphia Eagles. All right, let’s begin here with an Eagles roster move. Philadelphia waving long snapper Cal Adamis. Now you might be saying, Chase, who cares? He’s a long snapper. This isn’t an important move. I’m going to stop you right there. This is a very important move for the birds, and I’m going to explain why. Now, as for Adam, he went to Central Catholic High School in Pittsburgh. He played his college ball at Pit. He was with the Cincinnati Bengals from 2022 through 2024. And then once Charlie Hwlet, who the Eagles brought in this off seasonason to replace Rick Lovado, got hurt, the Eagles went the direction of fulfilling the need for long snapper with a doatiz. And he played in nine games with the Eagles after Charlie Hwlet got down. Now they signed him originally in training camp when Hullet was hurt. Then Hwlet got hurt again during the regular season and so they brought back a familiar face. What this means is that number one, the practice window has opened up for Charlie Hwlet. The Eagles moments ago saying that he is going to most likely return this week and he’s eligible now to come off of injured reserve. Now, he’s a 35year-old who got hurt in the Tampa Bay game all the way back in week four when the Eagles offense in the first half was electric and then in the second half, Jaylen Herz didn’t complete a pass. Hulet is a very experienced player. He’s been in the league since 2015 with the Cleveland Browns from 2015 all the way through 2024. And the Eagles specifically chose him to replace the two-time champion long snapper in Rick Lovado, who is one of four players in the history of this Eagles organization to win two Super Bowls. So, not easy to move off of a player like that. Those other three, Brandon Graham, Lane Johnson, and Jake Elliott. And speaking of Jake Elliott, this is why this move is so important to me. We know that kickers can be mentally fickled. the littlest of things can throw them off. And that is what has happened to Jake Elliot without Charlie Hwlet. Now with Charlie Hwlet, it was Jake the Make Elliot. He was perfect on the season and he looked to be back to the player who we had seen for a very long time since 2017 through 2023. But last year outside of the playoffs when once again he was clutch. Jake Elliott really struggled a year ago with Cal Adamise, Jake the Make Elliot became Jake Missy Elliot and he was missing kicks left and right. You look at his numbers with Hullet. Four of four on his field goal attempts, 12 of 12 on his extra points, three of three on kicks of 50 plus yards. Last year, Jake Elliott in the regular season was one of seven on kicks of 50 or more yards. Jake Elliott without Charlie Hwlet 12 of 17 on his field goal makes and attempts. 19 of 20 on his extra points. That miss a big one against the Bears to really squash some of the momentum that the Eagles were building. and his kicks from 50 plus only one of four. And what I noticed last year with Rick Lovado, I was actually talking about this a year ago, was that his snaps were just a tick off compared to prior years when he had replaced the legendary John Doros. And kicking is such a mentally fickle thing where kickers can be great and then they can get the yips, but tiny things can throw off kickers, alter their confidence, alter the process of kicking the football. And even if the snap is a fraction or a hair to the right, to the left, if it’s a little bit low, the kicker as he’s going to kick that ball notices that and their thought process goes from, “Let me swing the leg and drill this kick to,” oh my gosh, the snap is a little bit off. Obviously, the rotation of the ball, the placement of the ball, all of these things are really important. And with Lovado, he was struggling with the accuracy of his long snaps. With Charlie Hulet, he was actually really good. And I think Jake Elliott had confidence in him. But with Cal Adamise, and I think I’m pronouncing that name right, I think that Jake Elliot’s confidence was lacking a little bit. Because while his snaps have been pretty accurate, I just don’t know if the process was as flawless as what Elliott wanted. And if you were watching the watch party on Monday Night Football when Jake Elliott missed that 48 yarder right before the halftime break, I had one of my biggest crash outs that I have had on my onair career. Now, I’ve been here at Chat Sports since 2021. Prior to this, I was on television as a news reporter up in Northeastern Pennsylvania. Before that, I got my career started in Illinois. I was on air for years at Temple University covering the basketball and football programs during some really nice times. And now the athletic program not all that great. Although the football program is back, but when Jake Elliott missed that field goal, it really was a moment of frustration for me that had been boiling for a long time where this Eagles team right now on offense and on special teams kicking the ball for Jake Elliott and then offensively all across the map. They can’t capitalize on momentum right now and they can’t play consistent football and they can’t do some of the little things right. And even in a situation like Monday Night Football where Adori Jackson intercepts Justin Herbert after Jaylen Phillips hit the arm of Herbert. The Eagles get a huge turnover right before halftime. Then there’s the 15yd penalty on top of the pick and then the Eagles come out there. They don’t know what to do if they’re going to run a play or not with two timeouts. They don’t target the middle area of the field with those two timeouts. Instead, Nick Serriani trots out Jake Elliott. Jake Elliott goes to the sideline. Then the offense comes on the field. Jaylen Herds takes the snap, throws it away to just kill clock, I guess. Then Jake Elliott comes out and misses a field goal, which would have made it a one-sore game, which at the end of the game cost the Eagles the victory. And here was my reaction. We have to bleep it out so that we don’t get censored by YouTube when Jake Elliot missed that field goal. Big kick for Jake Elliott. He’s been a little bit shaky of late. This from 48 indoors left hash. Got to have it to make it a one-point game. Heing missed it. God. What the can’ting miss that demoralizing? Come on. You get the pick, the turnover, the penalty ball at the 30 and you can’t hit the field goal. Such a joke this team is right now. And this team right now can be best characterized as a team that continues to shoot itself in the foot. And that’s why I was so frustrated. And a lot of you can feel me on that. And I’m not somebody who likes to curse a lot on air because I know that people of all ages, all walks of life, and all beliefs, and all geographics watch this show. But I couldn’t hold back in that moment because I was so frustrated. And so this is a big move in my opinion that Charlie Hula is back. Hopefully that gets Jake Elliot back on track because he has been very, very shaky in recent weeks. Now coming up next, segment number two. Will the Philadelphia Eagles bench quarterback Jaylen Herz? Nick Serriani was asked about this. We’re going to dive into it here in just a moment. But first, let’s get to today’s sponsor, our friends at Ridge Wallet at making today’s Philadelphia Eagles now possible. And I’m somebody who hates having too much in my pockets.

Will the Eagles bench quarterback Jaylen Herz? Nick Serriani said Herz is absolutely his starter against the Las Vegas Raiders when asked about that this morning on WIP in Philadelphia. Here’s the extended quote from the Eagles head coach. No, I think that’s ridiculous. I know every time I go out on the field with Jaylen Herz as our quarterback, we have a chance to win the game. That’s something that’s been proven. We’ve won a lot of football games. This is the most ultimate team game. You win together as a team, you lose together as a team. It’s never just one thing. Now, as we know in Philadelphia, the backup quarterback can always be and always is the most famous person in the city. But with what Nick Serriani said here, I do agree with this. You need to allow Jaylen Herdz to work through the struggles that he’s having right now. And there’s no doubt that since the by-week, he’s really played poor football. Some of the worst football of his starting career with the Eagles. And since the buy in five games played, a usually accurate quarterback has not been accurate. His completion rate is 57 and a half%. Four touchdowns to five picks through the air, three rushing touchdowns. He’s fumbled the football four times. and his passing yards per game at 215.4. I will say this though, coming off that Chargers game, I come away a little encouraged with what I saw on offense from a play calling standpoint, a play design standpoint, a concept point of view, and how Jaylen Herz looked with some of the plays and the throws that he made, including that third and 16 to Devonte Smith in overtime, which displayed a throw over the middle with anticipation and velocity. And I just think that right now the Eagles need to allow Jaylen Herz to iron out some of the wrinkles, get through this rough stretch of play. And there has been a formula that the Eagles have put together that has been proven to work because they’ve won so many games with Herz. They’ve been to two Super Bowls over the last three years going into this year, and they’re on track to make the playoffs every single season that Herz has been a starting quarterback for this organization since 2021. Say what you want about Nick Serriani. He had more say going into the Chargers game. And what did we see? Some offensive adjustments that I really like that I think the Eagles can continue to build off of. Now, there are pluses and minus minuses with Jaylen Herz. I think some of the pluses that we’ve seen this year and really all throughout his career. He throws a very catchable ball. He has a great deep ball, one of the best in the NFL. When he wants to run and is a decisive runner, he’s a very talented mobile quarterback. His intermediate accuracy pretty good. He’s clutch and he wins. The negatives, which have really come to light during this three-game losing streak, and since the by-week doesn’t process well always, he’s uncomfortable targeting the middle of the field. two of his four picks against the Chargers came over the middle. One of which when a defensive tackle dropped back in coverage, he never saw him. And that’s a processing issue. That’s a seeing the field issue. At times, he can struggle to layer throws and put touch behind the ball when targeting throws and targets in between the numbers and the hashes. The pocket mobility isn’t always great. Sometimes he bails the pocket too early in my opinion and the footwork and the mechanics are just okay. But I’ll say this, Jaylen Herz deserves time. And I know that the backup quarterback in the city of Philadelphia sometimes is the most famous person in the city. But Jaylen Herz has earned this. He has earned a grace period. He has earned the right to work through some of his struggles right now. He’s been the starter for this football team four years, now a fifth. He’s led the Eagles to the playoffs every year. He has been to two Super Bowls. He has won a championship. He was the Super Bowl MVP last year, carving up one of the best defenses in the NFL, led by one of the best defensive minds in the history of the National Football League. He has outplayed Patrick Mahomes in both of these Super Bowls. And when the pressure cooker is on and the lights are the brightest, that’s when Jaylen Herz plays his best football. So, he has earned this equity and I think we have to give him time and a grace period to work through the downplay that we’ve seen since the by-week in those five games.

So, let’s get into it here on Philadelphia Eagles now. A lot to get into here on today’s edition of Philadelphia Eagles. Now, my name is Chase Senior. As always, thank you so much for supporting the show. There are so many talented content creators out there who cover the Eagles on YouTube. So many different content options, podcasts, YouTube channels, traditional television, newspaper, website. So, anytime you decide to hang out here with us, I do appreciate that. Now, over the course of the next several minutes, what I want to discuss here, Eagles fans were denied the news that they were expecting. Here’s what I mean by that. What Eagles fans were expecting going into that Chargers game. Philadelphia had that ugly Black Friday loss to the Chicago Bears and they had that mini bye-week to figure out some of their issues and their struggles on both sides of the ball. Wasn’t just the offense, right? on defense. They gave up 284 yards to the dynamic run scheme that Ben Johnson has with the Bears. Coming off of that Bears game, there was that report going into the Chargers game that Nick Serriani was taking more control of this Eagles offense. And perhaps some people thought that that was going to lead to a lot of sizable changes and a better performance from the Eagles. A lot of people thought that this Eagles team coming off the mini bye-week given their track record of making inseason adjustments were going to find solutions to some of their offensive issues. The Dallas Cowboys lost on Thursday. I thought that was going to take some pressure off the Eagles. They were going to go out there on Monday Night Football, beat another playoff caliber team, take down a quality opponent, and put the Cowboys season in the grave, and end any chances that Dallas has of winning the NFC East. I was confident that the Eagles were going to end their twoame skid, save their season, and really start this run at the end of the year to instill hope in this fan base that they can repeat as Super Bowl champions in a league that is wild, wacky, and wide open. Instead, what we got, the offense didn’t improve. Jaylen Herz was awful. Played the worst game of his career. He had a careerhigh five turnovers in the game. Kevin Patulo still lacks play calling field. I don’t think that’s anything that’s going to change. The Eagles offensive line still spotty and in the ground game not great, nor is it consistent enough. And unfortunately, I think this is an issue that’s going to plague this Eagles team for the rest of the season. and Philadelphia losing an absolute heartbreaker. Despite those five turnovers and Jaylen Herz playing a piss poor game and this Eagles team struggling to maintain consistency on the offensive side of the ball, they had a chance to win. They took a great defense into overtime and lost an absolute heartbreaker as Herz was picked off on a good defensive play, but a play that I don’t think he should have pulled the trigger on that throw. Now, moving forward for this Eagles team, is there hope? Will we continue to see some of the new offensive wrinkles that we saw against the Los Angeles Chargers? Will Nick Serriani continue to take control of this offense? Because all things considered, I do like some of the conceptual things that we saw against the Chargers, some of the philosophical elements that we saw displayed from this offense. There were play calls and play designs where we were live doing the watch party and I’m asking Chip, where has this been and why has it taken or why has it taken since week 14 to implement some of these things? Well, here’s what Adam Sher had to say about Nick Cerriani’s involvement with this offense. I would think Serriani’s involvement in the offense will continue going on. He’s a head coach. The team’s lost three in a row. Again, I think the offense showed signs of life. What led to it was the offense has been flat. It’s been predictable. It’s not been very innovative. I think Nick Cerriani got involved because it’s his team ultimately. He must answer for everything. And if the offense is not getting the job done, it’s his job to step in and make sure that it does. I don’t know the exact role he had in the offense. Supposedly, he had a bigger role. Yes, I would expect it to continue. And yes, I would expect the Eagles to get back to running the football. That’s a big thing there. I think the Eagles need to become a more balanced offense. And as part of this segment, we’ll talk more about that coming up here just around the corner. Now, were there positive moments with this Eagles offense? I do think there were, and I think there are some things to build off of. What I liked with what the Eagles did against the Chargers, we saw more pre-nap motion. We saw an increase in some RPOS’s and designed quarterback runs. I really liked how the Eagles at times moved the pocket for Jaylen Herz to the right, to the left. That’s something that I always am a fan of, especially when your offensive line is struggling. The Eagles called and ran more crossing routes. And the run game was a little bit better. It was only the second time of the entire year that Saquon Barkley has run for more than 100 yards in a game. And you look at some of the raw numbers with what the Eagles offense did against a top 10 overall defense that the Chargers have. They did put up 365 yards of offense despite five turnovers. Kind of hard to do. They average five and a half yards per play. That’s better than their averages this year. On the ground, they averaged 5.4 yards per carry. Saquon Barkley averaged 6.1 himself. Of course, the big thing that can’t happen, which isn’t a sustainable way to play football, the five turnovers. And when you turn the ball over at the NFL level, you lose about 80% of the time. So, this isn’t something that I think is going to happen every game, obviously, right? So, you limit the turnovers, you continue to do some of the things that the Eagles did on the offensive side of the football. And I think that the Eagles may have found a thing or some things that can help them form a little bit of an identity. Now, against the Raiders, I want to see and we must continue to see some of these improvements and adjustments that we saw against the Chargers take place this week as well against the Raiders. I came away encouraged by some of what the Eagles did. And what I don’t want to see is see the Eagles get scared away from what they did against the Chargers. Just because Jaylen Herz threw five interceptions on Monday night doesn’t mean the Eagles should stop what they’re doing. I want to see the Eagles continue to adapt and evolve and be innovative. There were some plays that we’re watching on Monday night and we’re like, “This looks like a modern offense in 2025.” So, the Eagles showed some signs of life on Monday night on the offensive side of the football. Now, you can apply those against a bad team, get your confidence up, have some good production, blow them out, and maybe that is what the Eagles need to kick this thing into gear with four games left. before we continue to move forward on today’s Eagles.

In the last three games, AJ Brown’s numbers are up. He has looked great outside of the drops against the Chargers, and he’s producing at a high level. He’s been one of the top white outs in football during the last three games, and that’s a good sign for him, right? Here’s the issue. The Eagles record as a team is 0 and3. And as we know, AJ Brown isn’t always about the team. He’s about me. So, with AJ Brown more involved in the offense, with him getting more targets, putting up better numbers, I actually think this Eagles offense has been worse. It’s been clunkier and it’s been less productive. Now, it’s great that AJ Brown is looking the way that he’s looking because he’s back to looking like one of the top wide receivers in the game. Week 12 against the Cowboys, eight catches for 110 yards and a touchdown. Following week against the Bears, 10 catches for 132 yards and two touchdowns. Week 14 against the Chargers, six catches for 100 yards. So, he’s gone over the century mark in each of the last three games. I think the route tree has been more diversified and vast. And AJ Brown over the last three weeks among all players in football, number one in receptions, number one in receiving yards, and he’s been the number one PPR white out if you’re into playing fantasy football, even though nobody cares about your fantasy team. Force-feeding AJ has led to fewer targets for Devonte Smith and Dallas Gddard. Devonte Smith and Dallas Gddard, especially going into the byee, were on track for career years. Smitty was balling. Dallas got herd in a contract year was one of the most productive tight ends in football. He’s already set some career best marks, especially with touchdowns. And I think this Eagles offense actually is at its best when it’s balanced and the ball is spread around. So, I think what the Eagles need to start doing is spread the ball around to all of your playmakers. This is the highest paid offense in the NFL. And what Philadelphia has to do is get back into a rhythmic running game. And that’s been missing as far as the run game all season long. It doesn’t help that this offensive line has really regressed and they’re hurt, but I think the Eagles need to run the ball more. Look at what happened against the Chargers. Saquon Barkley was popping off some good runs. Then at the end of the fourth quarter and in overtime, they barely ran the ball. AJ Brown on social media with all of his cryptic posts hinted that if he got more involved, it would solve the Eagles offensive issues. And a lot of us believe that hasn’t been the case. So what we thought was going to happen has not happened. And I think the Eagles need to go back to doing what they were doing against Minnesota, against the Giants, where everybody is getting involved as far as the offensive weaponry, and they’re having more success with their ground game. Don’t forget to give me a follow on social media. You can find me on X, Instagram, and Tik Tok. Just started that Tik Tok page. I’m putting so much content over there, and I’m already up to 3,000 followers. So, thanks to all of the legends and real ones who gave me a follow there. All right, we have one more segment until our mailbag. If you have some questions that you want me to answer, use the hashtag Eagles or send in a super chat. That’s hashtag Eagles or send in a super chat. Chop a city. Saquon been carrying this shitty offense this year. He can’t do it. Well, actually this year he hasn’t really been carrying the offense because he only has two games of more than 100 yards. Who’s been carrying this offense this year? nobody cuz it’s one of the worst offenses in the NFL. Again, # Eagles, send in a super chat to get questions in for our mailbag. What we’re about to do next is preview this Eagles Raiders week 15 game at the link. There is some major injury news in that game where the Eagles may have just gotten a really big break. I like what Vach said, unload Herz. Oh, you’re okay. No, I don’t like what you said. You’re saying unload Herz. He’s giving Sir Patulo a bad name. No, I think elite offensive coordinators can elevate a quarterback like what Shane Stiken did with Jaylen Herz, like what Kellen Moore did at times with Jaylen Herz. And Kevin Pulo is not doing that with Jaylen Herz right now. All right, we’ve had 3,000 people join us so far. So glad all of you are hanging out here with us. Segment number three4 coming up. Let’s do this Eagles Raiders preview right now. NFL week 15 coming up. Philadelphia Eagles playing host at Lincoln Financial Field in South Philadelphia to the Las Vegas Raiders. You’re watching Philadelphia Eagles now. My name is Chase Senior and coming up an Eagles Raiders preview. Two of the most passionate and intense fan bases in the National Football League. Two organizations though on different trajectories, especially with recent history. Raiders since the turn of the century, one of the worst teams in football. The Eagles since the year 2000. one of the best organizations in all of football. But still, I’m excited for this game. Kickoff set for Sunday, December 14th, 100 pm Eastern at the link. I know Eagles fans are frustrated, but you know, they’re going to fill the joint. It’s been a long while since the Eagles have had an early game as far as that 1 p.m. Eastern window. And look at this. Philadelphia 11point favorites. They were touchdown favorites against the Bears and they lost. They were decentsized favorites against the Chargers. They lost. Will Philadelphia finally cover a number? We will see. The overunder for this game is laughably low because of the Raiders offense. And this Eagles offense has been mediocre to bat all season long. It’s under 40 at 38 and a half. Before we dive into our preview, the best one that you’ll find here on YouTube, a programming reminder, don’t forget to hit that subscribe button for daily Eagles coverage, but also we go live for every single Eagles game.

Therefore, anytime we do go live, you’ll get that push notification so that you can join us. My overall thoughts on this game, if the Eagles lose against the Las Vegas Raiders, it will be an unmititigated disaster. The Raiders, I think right now, are the worst team in the NFL. And I think for Philadelphia, this is a game where it needs to be a get-right game, but you also need some style points. You need to look good to get the confidence up of your ball club. And with four games left, that is a month sample size before the NFL playoffs get underway. That is plenty of time to figure out some of your issues. And coming off that Chargers game, I’m a little bit encouraged by what the Eagles did with some things that they accomplish offensively. So, Philadelphia has an opportunity here to turn it around now. And I think the biggest thing with this offense, they’re playing tight. They don’t believe in themselves. They’re pressing a little bit, which is why you see mistakes, which is why you see execution issues, which is why you see some of these penalties. You go out there, you drop 38 points against the Raiders, and you win in a blowout. You start to feel yourselves going into the final three weeks of the year where you’re like, “Yo, we won a Super Bowl last year. We’ve had a gauntlet of a schedule, but as the playoffs near, we’ve got an opportunity in a wideopen NFC to run this thing back.” Major injury news here for Las Vegas, by the way. This news breaking on Wednesday that quarterback Gino Smith dealing with a shoulder injury is considered unlikely to start on Sunday. He will not practice today. Ian Rapaort again saying that on Wednesday, December 10th, that would put Kenny Picket in line to start against the Eagles, his former team. I appreciate what Kenny Picket did last year against the Dallas Cowboys once Jaylen Herz was concussed. He had that ribb injury. He started that game and he played pretty damn well in that first half. The Eagles blew the doors off the Cowboys. So much so that Picket didn’t need to play in the second half. So Tanner McKe played, he bought out and then with backups, Tanner McKe beat the Giant starters in week 18. And while Kenny Picket did some nice things for the Eagles last year, if the Eagles lose to Kenny Picket, it’s over, man. It’s over. I’m calling it a wrap. And even if the Eagles make the playoffs, they will not win a playoff game if they lose to Kenny Picket. And this isn’t good news for Kenny Picket, who even indoors wears a glove on his throwing hand. It’s supposed to be between 20 and 30° at Lincoln Financial Field on Sunday. So, it’s going to be cold and small hands Kenny going to struggle to grip the football. Unfortunately, while we might get a Kenny Picket reunion if he starts, we will not have a Chip Kelly reunion. He was made one of the highest paid offensive coordinators in the game this offseason when he was hired by Pete Carroll. He was fired a couple of weeks ago, no longer the play caller for Las Vegas. Of course, for the Raiders, this game doesn’t have any playoff implications. They have two wins all year. For the Eagles though, this game does have a lot of playoff implications. Now, they only have about a 1% chance of getting the number one seed, but there’s still a scenario in which that is possible because they have the tiebreakers over the Rams and the Packers. But right now, Rams in that one spot at 10 and three, Packers two seed at 93 and one. Philadelphia the three seed at 8 and5. I think they’ll be firmly set there. If they fall all the way to number four, that’s obviously not good. And if the playoffs were to end right now, the Eagles would play the San Francisco 49ers, and I would not feel good about that game. I actually think the Niners could win it in the NFC East. The Eagles up by a game and a half over the Dallas Cowboys with four games left. But with the Cowboys losing to the Lions on Thursday and with the Eagles also losing to the Chargers, they have kept the door a jar for Dallas to potentially win this division. And the Cowboys are one of the hottest teams in football. The Eagles better not mess around. Some Eagles injury news. On top of that, Raiders injury news. Lane Johnson could return in this game. I’m recording this on Wednesday. Nicksi said today he’s not sure if they’re going to have Lane Johnson practice this week, but they did not put him on IR, which means they thought that he could return perhaps this week or next week. And obviously Eagle so much better with him as compared to without him. We’ve looked at the record so many times. It is also unlikely that Jaylen Carter plays. I know that when he got that shoulder procedure done or shoulder procedures done because he got procedures on both shoulders, he was listed as weak toe. This is looked at as a multi-week injury for him and he’s had one of those shoulder ailments going all the way back to training camp in scouting the Las Vegas Raiders. Gino Smith this season has been horrible. And if you listen to or follow any of the analytical nerds who were saying going into this year that Gino Smith was a top 10 quarterback, unfollow them. Never listen them to to them again because they do not know football. Gino Smith has never been a top 10 quarterback. He never will be. And this year he was so bad in the leadup to that injury. What’s been odd is that Ashton Jenty was looked at as an immediate impact player. It doesn’t help that the Raiders offensive line is one of the worst in the NFL. It doesn’t help that Chip Kelly didn’t always give him the football as much as he should have. But he really hasn’t done much this year. And this is why I hate the thought of drafting a running back in the top 10. You better have a good offensive line in place. you better hope that that player can produce all throughout their rookie contract because if they don’t, you’re wasting a great draft pick on a position that is a little bit expendable and replaceable because you can get really good backs in the mid to latter rounds or even as an undrafted free agent. You can get good backs for cheap and you’re wasting a critical year of that rookie contract. This Raiders offensive line bottom five in the league. Some of that due to injuries, some of that due to there’s some mismanagement of Jackson Powers Johnson, which I don’t understand. They have Brock Bowers and Max Crosby. Those two players are studs. And Bowers might be the best tight end in football. Max Crosby a top three to five edge rusher in football. Outside of that, not a lot of talent on this Raiders team. And on offense, they do not have a lot of skill position talent either. the Raiders so far. You take a gander at their schedule. One of the most surprising results of the season with where the New England Patriots are right now with only two losses, number two seed in the AFC, is that in week one, the Raiders went on the road and beat New England. Following week, they lost 20 to9 to the Chargers. Then a 41-24 loss on the road against the Commanders. 2524 loss against the Bears. 40-6 loss against the Colts when Indie was hot at the time. Beat the Titans 20-10. And then from that point forward, it has been ugly for Las Vegas. 31 nothing loss to the Chiefs. 30-29 loss to the Jags and OT. 10-7 loss on Thursday to the Denver Broncos. 3316 loss to the Dallas Cowboys, 2410 loss against the Cleveland Browns, 3114 losers to the Chargers, and then 2417 L to the Broncos. That is eight straight losses for Las Vegas. I mentioned earlier it would be a disaster if the Eagles lose this game. You can see why. So, who you got in this football game? I want you to type LV for Las Vegas. PHI for Philadelphia. Get those predictions into the comment section right now. Coming up next here on the show, I’m going to break down my keys to the game, top matchups to watch, what the Eagles must do to beat the Las Vegas Raiders. That’s coming up here in a moment.

Coming up here on Philadelphia Eagles Now, Chase Senior here with you. Part two of our Eagles Raiders week 15 preview. I’m going to break down my keys to the game, top matchups to watch, what the Eagles must do to win, and of course give you my prediction, as I always do. Let’s set the foundation by taking a look at how the Raiders stack up. This is one of the worst teams in the National Football League, which is why Philadelphia has to win this game, and they have to look good in the process. I need a dub. I need some style points as well. They are dead last in the NFL in points per game. Ladies and gentlemen, this ain’t the 1960s any longer. When Chuck Bednerk is playing linebacker for the Eagles, this is 2025. The Raiders are averaging 15 points per game. They are putting up 257.2 yards per game, second to last in the NFL. Their yards per play 30th. Their third down rate 26th. Their red zone touchdown scoring percentage 23rd in the league. on defense. It doesn’t help that they can’t play complimentary football, but outside of Max Crosby, they’re not that talented. 24th in points per game, 16th in yards per game, 11th in yards per play, 30th on third downs, 21st in the red zone. On offense for the Eagles, this is a frustrating sight. Highest paid offensive unit in the NFL, these numbers unacceptable. 19th in points per game, 24th in yards per game, 17th in yards per play, 28th on third downs. Still the number one red zone offense in the NFL, but that number is tailed off. Ninth in points per game on defense, 22nd in yards per game. They’ll give up yards. That’s fine. Don’t give up points. I’ve always been an advocate for that thought process. 14th in yards per play, 24th on third downs. Number four red zone defense in the NFL at times. Vic Fangio’s unit bending but not breaking. As far as my keys to the game, top matchups to watch. Look, there’s no other way to put it. Jaylen Herz has to play better. And since the by-week, he has been one of the worst quarterbacks in all of football. Now, the offensive coordinator is not putting him in a position to succeed. He’s not elevating him. But Jaylen Herz deserves Blaine, too, because he as an individual has not played well of late. Five games since the buy. His completion rate is down to sub 58%. That’s bad. Four passing touchdowns to five picks, three rushing touchdowns, but he also has four fumbles and he’s only averaging 215.4 passing yards per game. He’s the face of the franchise. He’s making a lot of money. He is a championship player. He has an impressive resume. It’s time for him to play like that. And I have belief and confidence that he can. He just has to put it together this final four weeks of the season. Key to the game number two, I don’t want to see the Eagles get scared off of what they did against the Chargers because Jaylen Herz had those five turnovers. I actually want to see them double down and do more of what they did against LA. And here’s my thought process with this. I come away from that Chargers loss encouraged by what I saw from this Eagles offense. Nick Serriani had more say. He was more involved with some of the Eagles meetings. I think it resulted in an offensive performance that the Eagles can build off of. We saw more pre- snap motion. We saw an increase in RPOS’s and designed quarterback runs. I really liked how Philadelphia moved the pocket on a couple of occasions for Jaylen Herz. He looked comfortable on some of those plays. Kevin Bullo finally called more crossing routes. It’s an easy man and zone beater. A no-brainer. Why would you not run those? And I thought that this run game was a little bit better. There were some wham blocks and double team blocks up front that led to Saquon Barkley having more real estate and that’s been the problem all year. I don’t think it’s because Saquon Barkley is tired from last year. I think it’s because this offensive line has been criminally bad compared to what their expectations were and the talent of that unit. They finally got a little bit of a better push, but the blocking scheme was also better and that led to a solid offensive performance that the Eagles can build off of. And this year there have been pluses with Jaylen Herz and I want to continue to see more of this, right? He throws a catchable ball. He has a great deep ball. When he wants to run, he’s still a talented runner. The intermediate accuracy pretty solid. And we know about the clutch gene and him winning a lot, playing his best football when the lights are the brightest. The negatives with Jaylen Herz. And we’re seeing that during this fivegame stretch post bye-week, not processing well, getting confused by multiple looks from the defense, not always comfortable targeting the middle area of the field because the vision and processing isn’t there. And those have always kind of been issues with him. Going all the way back to Alabama, he struggles at times to layer throws. The pocket mobility isn’t great. The footwork and the mechanics just okay. And this is a negative with Herz. He doesn’t like being under center. The Eagles need to run more plays from under center because they’ve been a highly efficient offense when they do that. Key to the game number three. I know that this might sound cliche, but this is a problem that has killed Philadelphia’s offense during this three-game losing streak. And it’s a turnover problem. They need to play cleaner football because they have been turning the ball over at an absolutely alarming rate. Especially Jaylen Herz in the last two games. This is a crazy number. Jaylen Herz has seven giveaways in the last two games. He had seven combined in the previous 26. As a team during this three-game losing skit, the Eagles as a team have nine turnovers. They had four total in their first 10 games of the year. So Nick Serriani always emphasizes securing the ball, ball security, and forcing turnovers. The ball security has not been there for this football team. Key to the game number four. I want to see Philadelphia’s offense going back to being more balanced. They were not balanced against the Chargers. They threw it 40 times. They were not balanced against Chicago. Part of that because they dug themselves into an early hole. But I also think a problem with this Eagles offense over the last three games is that they are forcing the issue in trying to get AJ Brown involved. And this was my fear that they would try to appease AJ and make him happy. Now, for him individually, his numbers are up. He’s once again closing in on 10,00 receiving yards this season. He has looked great outside of the drops against the Chargers. He’s producing, but it’s coming to the detriment of the football team. I think the Eagles offense has been worse off and the Eagles as a team are 0 and3 because of their offensive problems while AJ Brown has been balling out. So, with AJ Moore involved, this Eagles offense, I think, has taken a step back and they’ve gone downhill. He’ll look at these numbers and he’ll be happy about it, right? Because he wants to be more involved. He wants to be the reason or a reason why the Eagles are winning. Well, AJ team isn’t winning while you’re putting up numbers. Eight catches for a buck 10 against Dallas and a touchdown, 10 for 132 and two Tutties against the Bears. 6 for 100 against the Chargers. That’s great. He’s number one during this time frame among all receivers in receptions, first in yards. He’s the number one PPR wide out in fantasy football. But in targeting AJ and force-feeding him the ball, what has happened in the process, less targets for Devonte Smith, less targets for Dallas Carter. These are two exceptional players who over the last two games, where has Dvonte Smith been? Shoot, in that Cowboys game, he wasn’t really involved either. I want to see number six and number 88 more involved with this offense because it makes Philadelphia a better collective team. And that’s what they need right now is to be a better overall offense. Key to the game number five, there are two star players on this Raiders team. Brock Bowers and Max Crosby. What Philadelphia cannot do is allow Brock Bowers and Max Crosby to ruin this game. This Raiders team has lost eight games in a row. You lock down Brock, you block Max Crosby, you’re going to win this game. If you let them go wild and crazy, you run the risk as 11 11 and a half point favorites to lose this game. Brock Bowers has been injured this year. Still has 53 catches with bad quarterback play, 619 yards and six touchdowns. Max Crosby this year continues to be one of the top pass rushers in football. Nine sacks, 25 TFLs. He’s also exceptional against the run. And if Lane Johnson can come back for this game, that’ll be a fun matchup to watch. If he can’t, Fred Johnson against Max Crosby. Jaylen Herz, look out. So, predict the score. Las Vegas Raiders, Philadelphia Eagles, week 15. Who you got? Give me that prediction and I’ll give you my prediction. This is the last time that I’m going to show any confidence in this Eagles team unless they prove me wrong. I think the Eagles finally get it together. I think they work off of that Chargers game and they have one of their best offensive performances of the year. If they don’t, I’m completely out and I’m saying that the season is over. But I am clinging to some hope. I might be hanging by the string on my hoodie right here, but I’m clinging to some hope. Philadelphia wins this game 33 to4. Go Birds. All right. What are the people saying? Tennis says 12 to 10 Eagles win. Please no. No. Chip and I need some entertainment on Sunday, man. Chip and I need some entertainment on Sunday. Have one Michigan. Oh, they fired Chiron Moore. That’s what I was looking at. Yeah, our uh company Slack’s going crazy right now. Michigan Football fired Chiron Moore. Wow. Who are they gonna hire? That’s going to be interesting. All right, let’s round out the mailbag. Do we have enough questions for this chip? Let’s take a look. If not, we’re running. Let’s see. Kenny Thunderhounds with three. Oh, no. It’s all the same question. Kenny Thunderhounds, Trey, Cool Reigns, Mike, Nintendo Masters here. Did you get a couple of super chats coming in? Yeah, let’s take those super chats. You think we have enough or no? Yeah, I think we have enough. All right, let’s just save those super chats for the mailbag. Okay. Yeah, we can get to those super chats early. Let’s do it. All right, Philadelphia Eagles now mailbag coming up. We’ll take all of your questions here. Let me get a sip of water. [Music] All right, mailbag coming up. Let’s get it. Yo, what’s going on? Welcome into the show. Hope you’re all having a fantastic weekend. By the time that you’re watching this video, you’re watching Philadelphia Eagles. Now, my name is Chase Senior. coming up, taking questions from the Bird Gang and talking all things Eagles because that’s what we do here on this show every single day year round. And that is exactly why you should subscribe to the channel.

We’re killing the game, and that’s a big reason why we’re closing in on 140,000 subscribers. Let’s begin here with this $20 super chat from the legend Dennis Designs. I love the positive thoughts, but if we don’t beat the Raiders, it will be by far the worst season I’ve ever seen. Oh, and I sent you the t-shirt today. I hope you get it soon. I always love when viewers send Chip and I gifts. We really appreciate that. And if you send us gear, we always rock it on the show like we’ve done with Hallelujah. Others and Dennis, I’ll do that as well and give you a shout out. And what Dennis is talking about with me being positive about this team. I did come away from that Chargers loss after looking at the tape letting things marinate watching the game back a little bit encouraged by what the Eagles did on the offensive side of the ball. Nick Serriani was more involved. He had more say and we saw some new concepts, some new play designs, some new creativity. And this Eagles offense finally looked like a modern unit. And now I don’t want to say the Eagles get scared off of what they did against the Chargers just because Jaylen Herds had those five turnovers. Let him work through these issues. It’s time for him and the offense to adapt and evolve. I think that you can build off of the foundation that you built against the Chargers. Continue to roll with that experiment for the final four weeks. And if you drop 30 plus points against the Raiders and you’ve got some style points, I think what’s most important is the Eagles can get their confidence back, which on offense right now they do not have. Christopher $5 super chat. Chase, I am a homer or am I a homer or has the officiating been consistently bad for the Eagles? It’s so funny because in covering the NFL and in watching so much football, whether it be the NFL or college football, go on Twitter, right? And one fan base will hate the officiating. Usually they’re losing. The other fan base will love the officiating and they’re winning. I never will blame officiating for a win or a loss because it really does go both ways throughout the course of a ball game. As frustrated as I was about the James Bradberry hold in Super Bowl 57, the game didn’t just come down to that. Now it hurts because I think if the Eagles got the ball back, Jaylen Herz could have led the Eagles down the field for a drive that could have won them the ball game. If you hold Kansas City to three points there, I think Philadelphia wins. And we’re talking about the two-time Super Bowl champion Jaylen Herz and Nick Serriani led Eagles and the threetime Eagles as an organization. But the game didn’t just come down to that holding call. Patrick Mahomes had one incompletion in the second half. It was on a throwaway. Jonathan Ganon was too busy trying to get that Cardinals gig that he clearly wasn’t prepared for the Chiefs. He got pants by Andy Rita Mahomes in the second half. Special teams, the Eagles had multiple breakdowns. They couldn’t really cover some of those goal line plays where there were the whip routes that Andy Reid called. Jaylen Herz fumbled, scoop, and score. It led to a touchdown. Quz Watkins should have caught that ball downfield. So many reasons why the Eagles lost that game. Um, so I think to start the year, maybe the Eagles had the benefit of the whistle, but against the Chargers, against the Bears, against the Cowboys, I don’t think any of those games really came down to officiating. I know the Cowboys had the benefit of the whistle against Philly and Kansas City as far as like penalty yardage. I do think some of the PIs on Trent McDuffy were questionable. The only bad call that I can remember this year is that late hit for Zack Bourne against the Broncos which helped the Broncos like kind of ice that game. Eagles could have like forced a fourth down there instead. The Broncos got a freebie, but I think the officiating’s been fine. Mike Nintendo Master, what I see I dropped in the rankings. I’ve given up on, you know, trying to convince you otherwise, Mike. So, you can do whatever you want, man. Uh, what changes and lessons need to be learned from Monday’s game? It’s a good question, Mike. Um, lessons learned. The seagulls defense is Super Bowl caliber, and it’s a shame that it’s getting wasted by this offense. On offense, I think Philadelphia needs to get back to trying to establish the run. Be a more balanced offense. Don’t force feed AJ Brown the ball. Find ways to get Devonte Smith and Dallas Goddard involved, especially with Smitty. Like, can we call some crossers? Can we call some routes downfield instead of bubble screens? He’s one of the best route runners in all of football. I think that we learned that the Eagles are capable of being more creative and innovative on offense. Nicksi had more say in the game plan. I like some of the concepts that we saw from Philadelphia. Um, but I do think two things are a constant that are going to hold this team back. The offensive coordinator and the offensive line. And I don’t think the offense is going to reach its ceiling, especially with how bad the offensive line has been. I think that unit is what it is. They’ve regressed. They’ve been hurt. And in turn, they’ve been bad. The Thunderhounds. Hey, Chase. I believe Jaylen is struggling due to an unhealthy offensive line, Kevin’s bad coaching, and a little bit of AJ Brown drama. I think you’re right on all of those fronts from a macro level, right? The offensive line has been bad all year. The Eagles have not been able to run the football efficiently or successfully. Saquon Barkley has two games over 100 yards. I think he looks great, but I think that the offensive line continues to get pushed back, put on their asses, and bullied. And that’s led to Saquon Barkley not even having chances when he gets the ball. And when you can’t run the ball, it doesn’t open up the pass game. When you can run the ball, it does open up the pass game. I think the pass protection for the most part all year has not been good. I don’t think that Kevin Patulo has done a good job of maximizing or elevating Jaylen Herz. I think his play calling has been predictable, vanilla. There’s no rhythm. There’s no feel. There’s no sequencing to it. And I think that from an offensive standpoint, the Eagles are targeting AJ Brown too much. And by force-feeding him the ball, Devonte Smith and Dallas, who are great players, aren’t involved as much. So I I think this is also a thing. The Eagles, they were getting ripped for being conservative. Well, now Jaylen Herz is pressing a little bit. He’s been more aggressive. What’s it led to? Seven turnovers in the last two games. When they take care of the ball, they’re really hard to beat. That might have to be the formula. Today’s Philadelphia Eagles now mailbag sponsored by the DraftKings Sports Book.

Raiders. Wait. If we lose to the Raiders, I Oh, okay. I see what you’re saying. If we lose to the Raiders, I hope we don’t. But if we do, will they finally fire Kevin Patulo? Man, let’s say the offense sputters. They score 10 points and Eagles fans are going ballistic. The Boobirds are out. The chance of fire Kevin are on and echoing throughout the length that you can hear it from center city from South Philly. I think Nick Serriani will have to make a change of three games to go for the Eagles to try to salvage their season. He might be your boy. Might have to make a move though. Andrew Nathan, were we going back and forth on Twitter a little bit earlier today? Andrew, I love the profile picture. Ski mask cowi. I think you’re taking it out of context what I’ve said about Jaylen. But here’s what Andrew has to say about Jaylen. Jaylen hasn’t played well recently. However, you don’t bench your Super Bowl MVP starter. We like the idea of Tanner McKe, but Jaylen is the better player. MVP season in 2022, played well in 2023, Super Bowl MVP in 2024. So, I don’t think he played well in 2023. He was the MVP runnerup in 2022. I think he would have won the MVP if he didn’t hurt his shoulder against Chicago. And last year, it was definitely up and down, but then he won the Super Bowl MVP in 2024. I think a lot of what people don’t talk about is how Jaylen Herz has had like 10 different play callers over the last 10 years going all the way back to Alabama. When we talk about a quarterback struggles, shouldn’t we discuss that? That he’s had no continuity at offensive coordinator that can lead to struggles in play. Every year there’s a different voice in his head. Now, I do think that Herz has some limitations, but obviously he has a lot of strengths. What I think the Eagles should do and are going to do, work through the kinks with Jaylen. I thought he made some nice plays against the Chargers. I thought he made some nice throws. I like some of the concepts in the play calls. Let him work through this stretch right now. He’s still in his prime. It’s not like he’s washed. And let’s see if he can get out of it. And if he can’t get out of it this year, bring in a legit OC next year. And if Jayen Herz plays well, fantastic. If he doesn’t play well next year with a really good offensive coordinator, then you start to worry a little bit. But the best security that you can have as an organization is quarterback security. I think Tanner McKe can be a really good player in this league. He throws with great touch, timing, anticipation. He can layer throws in there. He has excellent size at 66. Am I saying that Herz should get benched? No. But what I think the Eagles should do is make a decision by the end of next year who’s going to be the quarterback moving forward. If Herz plays well, obviously it’s him. If he doesn’t play well, then you start to have that conversation because McKe will be a free agent after the 2026 season, but we’re far away from that. Niles Productions, what do you think about Kenny Picket most likely starting for the Raiders? Yeah, Gino Smith has a shoulder injury. He had hurt his hand last week in that game, too. So, he’s banged up. It’s going to be between 20 and 30 degrees at Lincoln Financial Field. the early forecast. If Kenny Picket beats this team with a glove on and he carves this defense up, which is actually the bright spot of this team, and this offense continues to blow, full panic mode. Season’s over. Can’t lose to Kenny Picket and this Raiders team that has lost eight games in a row. And I think right now they are the worst team in football. Trey Lada, who is one AFC team that you think has a lot of potential. I think the scariest team in the AFC right now is the Houston Texans. I think their defense is the best in football. I think they’re slightly better than Denver’s defense because they force more turnovers. If that offense can be a little bit better, I think Houston’s really scary because that Super Bowl defense is ready to win a Super Bowl right now. Um, Denver kind of in that same spot. Great defense. Quarterback been spotty. I do think Bo Knicks has been better this year than CJ Strad. I don’t think Buffalo’s defense is good enough. And with where they are now, they’re not going to win the division. So, playing in Buffalo, Josh Allen has this crazy winning streak in December and January in Buffalo, but they might have to go on the road in the playoffs. Uh Jacksonville’s a three seed. Don’t buy them. Pittsburgh 4 seed. Don’t buy them. Um yeah, I think Houston’s the scariest team right now in the AFC. Don’t forget to hit that subscribe button, which is why it’s frustrating, by the way, that the Eagles suck so bad this year, because if they were playing their best ball, they’d be the clear favorites to win the Super Bowl. Hopefully, they can get it together with four games left. Hit that sub button for Elite Daily Birds coverage. I love all of you, even the haters. Thanks for watching. All right, good show here today.

  1. Hurts is struggling because we have no run game, due to our o-line regressing. I think Jürgens and Dickerson are still injured but choosing to play

  2. Yea I had the same reaction .. bro they had the ball in the 2 yard line in first down and couldn't break the plain… we got a qtr billion dollar offense and thy look just like a big walking contradiction.. like we can't find our feet from under us and we just keep falling on our face .. over and over again… and its ashame cuz our defense if playing lights out .. despite being out there 80 % of the game ..

  3. Hurt s confidence is shaken. He went from one of the best to struggling. His confidence on the pkay calling has questioned his leadership. Also, the issue with Nrown may have impacted his confidence.

  4. I think we should run the offense the same way we did last year that was peak performance from everybody whatever Moore did last year lets copy that to the T👌🏽🙌🏼💪🏼🦅🫡

  5. We have to get over Hurts, he is just absolutely terrible, Love the Eagles, Great team but our QB is so weak, always has been, just had the very best players around him. We would dominate with literally any other QB.

  6. AJ and Smitty should’ve caught passes that led to interceptions. Jalen had a bad day, but others have to be accountable like the OLine lack of blocking. The OLine has been horrible all year. And the coaches has to put the team in better positions to be successful. Jalen shouldn’t be forced to force throws.

    I’m a ride or die no matter what. Go 🦅 Birds
