Hey, hello, it is the Go Birds Podcast sponsored by Ashley. The number one furniture and mattress store in America. We love Ashley. We'll tell you more about the blockbuster sale coming up. We're going to be there. We'll tell you all about it coming up in a bit. We are now both home thank goodness. Yes. Because it seemed like it was a trials and tribulations of the airports and was not just a snuggier. We're going to get into that courage. But I just, I have to start at the top. Do it. I'm going to do it. Shout out to fans of Philly. There it is.

1:00Shout out to Joe and Kyle and everyone who did everything and made that thing happen. Shout out to like the 80% of the stadium that was Eagles fans. All hundred percent of national Ellen. I'm going to do it. I'm going to do it. Shout out to fans of Philly. There it is. Shout out to Joe and Kyle and everyone who did everything and made that thing happen. I hope you like to think that stuff. I hope you like it. I hope you like it. Just you, I hope you like it. Well, just give us one 10%. 20%. If you wanted to make a good app, successfully given that you got to take it to file and it's the job is just, keep track of your team will veure it somewhat. But they just it's, so I think it should be tested on once in a while. So this is a basic secondo level sign that Emba will show you his last day. Since December we're fine like slower shots. It's like moment, you know, yeah, of WIP, I feel super confident about that. Just magic, man, magic trip. Obviously a closer game than someone, but a thrilling win at the end of the day. And ultimately just I had thinking of fans of the best time in Nashville. And my voice is still not recovered as you

2:02could talk. It sounds good. It does. It sounds normal. Yeah. It sounds horrible. But here's some things about some people always think my voice sounds horrible. It's like me saying, you know, I feel like my takes are good. I can just feel that I don't have the power. Yeah. Well, we'll get worked up about some. Oh, yeah. We'll get you going. It's good. I'm just going to keep ruining it. Talk about maybe sale tickets or something. It's really. No, I mean, it was it was unbelievable. And it, you know, we always talk about it, but like, it's just so cool seeing everybody like make friends on the trips. And as I go on a lot of them, obviously through work, like seeing people that meet on the first one and still hang out. And it's totally, yeah. Like we should never take it for granted. How cool it is. There's something special about obviously being a Philadelphia fan period compared to other fan bases. We talk about all the time. How important sports are here. How much we love our teams, how much they impact our daily happiness and all that. And extreme ways compared to other fan bases. But I think there's something extra special about being with your fan base in

3:03another city and territory. There's just something that bonds you together. And I think Eagles fans particularly that's true. So it's like you really felt it there. Here's the one thing I'll say, like take it over the Titan Stadium. Doesn't seem that hard. No, yeah, I agree. We probably could have sent five thousand of our finest of them. And fine. I don't know if it took 80% of the stadium. But no, I mean, Nick was on with you guys and talked about it. Seems like he really enjoyed it. I love the clip of him running off the field celebrating. They'll just they'll never be an Eagles coach more like an Eagles fan. Do you know, he didn't I really pulled him out of where Sir Jacked up yet again, I V after the guy. Yeah, he was in the cold bad. I mean, like the guy was like so jacked up not even playing. I love him. I'm so proud of him. He definitely checks the he cares as much as you know, Eagles fans. I know no one truly ever cares much as someone that grew up loving the team. But outside of just professionally, I do think again, getting to know Nick since he's been hired here in 2021. Like he is a sports guy. And I think he loves the fact that he works in a city that loves sports too. I totally imagine being the tightens

4:06face. Well, that's what he said. And he said it. Yenik's in that answer. I thought a really good point. He's like, I was with the chargers, man. Like I know what it's like to have to do to prepare for a silent house of the chargers. I will say he shot. I don't hear the good news. No one's going to care. No one can hit. It's perfect. It's the perfect one. It's the perfect franchise. He could say because they don't we all know we see it every time that there's a chargers game of television. It's like, oh, wow. It just happened. Did you see highlights from that chargers raiders game that the place was full of raiders fans? Of course. Chargers top five embarrassing franchises. Chargers, cardinals, tightens, I mean, jets. Are you kidding me? You accept that? I know you like the jets. You got there an embarrassment. I wouldn't say I like the jets. No, I know that you're you're sympathetic. You're simply saying they're New York. They're a joke. They are a jaguar. The browns of the jaguars are better franchises than the jets. Full stop. No, no, no, no, yes, they are. The jets are absolute. Okay. Who do you think has more passionate fans? The jets are the jets. That's what I'm talking about. You just

5:08talking about my family's results on the field. I'm saying joke of a franchise. The fans are part of it. The whole thing is a joke. I think it'd be way easier to take over a Jags game than a Jets game. I'm talking about as an organization. The jets are not well. My point is I think jets fans hate their team while also being passionate more than Jaguars fans hate their team. That's for damn short. I got to take off of last night's game Monday night. This is about it. I slept through it. So I've yeah, I couldn't wait to go to bed yesterday. Interesting. I was doing you. I was so tired. I was completely crushed from this. No, trust me. Yeah. I will feel it all weekend. This upcoming weekend from just going out Friday night. Like I'm cooked. I've three hours. I want to go to bed right now. Two and a half hours left. I've three hours of sleep that on my ore ring. It's just so hard to make it up. Like I slept seven and a half hours last night. And as you just can't do it. But anyway, here's my take off Monday night. And it has to do with the charges. I'm not intimidated by the Rams. Good. Like they're just they don't the Rams don't have

6:14what the Eagles have, which I don't the Rams don't have an it factor. Like I think they might have a better roster for sure. I think they have a better quarterback right now. Like we could argue the head coach thing, but you watch that home environment they play in and it's just it's stale. So like I think going into the Rams or in the Rams coming out of the dome to play the Eagles. Like I'm not intimidated by good. I'm not intimidating anybody. So like I'm the doesn't mean. Well, I mean, I think like you know, it like I think it's intimidating to go into Dallas. Like is anyone intimidated to go into Los Angeles? No, that's my point. And like you watch last night against the Giants who have Winston and I know they ended up winning by quite a bit. But like the Giants had a chance to like make that a one possession game right before half at the six yard line. They just messed it up. So I think the Giants actually have like a bit of like Hutzpah to him like I mean, James Winston Stinks. No, for sure. They're cooked. Yeah. Jackson Dart is out four to six or something. That's what it seems like. Yeah. Um, well, that's a little bit of side reading. Yeah. Yeah. I was he definitely said four to six. The question is, is it true?

7:15Yeah, or what or what he was talking about. Yeah. Well, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I it's probably going to the good news is he's not like didn't tear every muscle and his knee. You know, now we'll find out. Obviously, I'm sure that I'm going to get hurt. Yeah. I just make it a joke. Yeah. Yeah. I just like watching Caleb Williams who oh, wait, he's fine. Every. Oh, I know. And I I'm a Caleb Williams guy. I've talked glowingly. I thought that was one of the more embarrassing like displays. I've seen it in a long time. Like for a great one hamstring tear, it looked like he was like he is like it folded on his body. Oh my god. The guy like his leg fell off. You will not have a leg anymore is what happened. Oh, oh, wait, he might be back this week. Definitely next week. Oh, get good. And now the flip side of that is I will go put this or neck and I've been in a terrible mood. So you know, professional players, there are certain but athletes are here. Let's agree. But also they are professional football players. There is a look like you would be less likely to show your pain on the air maybe than off the

8:18year. Sure. 100% same thing. Um, the thumbs up was so good too. Oh, the whole thing is hilarious. It's like the towel over there. I can't. I love it. I saw really they're obviously this is there are funny things that will happen where it'll just lead to like amazing tweets with the video as like the punchline. And the best one I saw was a yeah, the hospital after sleeping on an uncomfortable couch while my wife just gave for me. Yeah, I saw that one. Yep. I feel that. That was a good one. Um, the Ben Johnson audio though. It doesn't sound like he's going to play this week. No, no, he said we to eat, but he didn't roll him out. I'm kind of disappointed he's not playing honestly. I've been wanting to see like Eagles, Bears, soldier, field prime time. We almost got it in the playoffs last year. So I'm disappointed. I'll take the bag up. But I get you're a little worried about the the back of agent. You know, it just feels like a nick full situation. I'd like him there. Yeah, they did a really like really like Tyson made. Yeah. And but he looked awful. And I was coming in in the fourth quarter. But he looked awesome in the preseason apparently. He's fine.

9:21I think he's one of the probably one of the better backups. Yeah. I think there's like a unknown there. Sure. You know, so I think it's still a I think it's still a tough game. Oh, I see that going in. But I would have rather seen Caleb. Sure. Would you rather see Caleb with the injured hamstring? Yes. Then agent. Yeah, you have a part of Caleb's game. He's running percent. KLA. Yeah. If he can't run, he's a different player. Yeah. He's good at running. So either way, I'm with you as a football fan. I don't want to see any of these guys great. We don't have good quarterbacks. And the link is it is. I mean, the bears go from 59 points to three. Oh, but can we just talk about that? And we are playing him this week. Like, you know, I think he's a great offensive mind. And I thought he was going to be a good coach. But he is a smack-dass man. I've come around on your side. He is the fourth and one thing about the twist. So like, like, first of all, to say, like, we want to set the points record to start deer is like, all right, dude, like, how about we want to be the best offensive leader? Whatever, even that, it's like, like, all right, guy, like it's your guy. He wouldn't never.

10:22No, no. Oh, my god. But then also like, you play in Chicago. Are you crazy? Like, you are not setting the points record. Do you know what's going to be like 10 degrees for all your forget December games? What are you talking about? Wait for the end of the year. Like what stupid thing to say? Honestly, I was like, that's dumb. You sound dumb, Ben. Yeah. I also thought the, um, uh, the thing he said, uh, well, after the first week when they scored 59 points, whatever. And he was like, this should be our worst game of the year. Oh, god. It's like, we know it's not going to be your work. We know that you're not going to score more than 59 points in a game. So yeah, I agree. I mean, look, to get back to the nick thing, like, and you know, I've been on this train all off season, like the obsession with like the scheme guys. I just, I don't get it. You know, like, so I thought he was leader. Man, by all the time, I think he's got a little bit of a step. He's definitely a smile. Like, I'm sure we'd like to more of your art coach, like this stuff. But he is, I mean, this is like three points. I agree. I agree. The point is, is that, is that it feels like Brian Johnson does a lot of the things is more aggressive with the, in the way that Nick is. And but like, people get so mad at

11:27Nick and call him a clown. But like, Ben Johnson's like, oh, yeah, look at this competitor. Okay, really? Nick's it. Nick's a better head coach in punch out without a doubt. It's not even a question. I agree. Man, there was some other thing I had. I guess we should get there. Oh, I was, yeah, so I see like I'm gotten all my, feel good. I'm thought that. Yeah, feel fine. No more random thoughts. I feel terrible. So I feel, I, I felt a little bit better when I woke up this morning than I expected to. And then with like every passing minute, worse. Yeah, like right now, worse part of my day so far. Other than the part. I'm saying, like, I feel the worst I felt all day. And that next minute will be the worst. Yeah, he should make that the title. That is a good one. This is the worst part of my day. Yeah. You know what I mean? No, I mean, I feel horrible. Yes. My voice is barely there. And next minute will be even worse. But me, much like tough NFL football players, we powered. Yes. Yes. All right. So let's talk Zachard. It's a legend is back. And this is what do you think? Look, we were into it before it happened. I

12:29wanted them to sign in before Dallas. God, I got hurt. I was like, you know, on the earth thing from the jump, I think it's absolutely no brainer. Once God, it went down. It was like, I got all time no brainer. I don't, I don't, I think there's no pushback to this. I, again, if God, it were healthy, you could, I, I wanted him. You could make the pushback. And you could say, I, you know what? They've got God or you can't block who just, but like, and the receiver was it played well. But when God goes out like, I don't, I don't know how that you could possibly push back against this. You're ready? Oh, come on. So no, hold on, hold on, hold on. So the, I didn't emergency pod last night. So if you want to hear me be like super excited about it, I agree with all it's very exciting sports to supposed to be fun. It'll be cool to see. I also think it's smart. Yeah. Yeah. I think it even mentioned the fact that it's fun to have Zachard is back. I'm talking strict. Yeah. I think football wise. It's, I like it, right? I like it. Here would be the devil's advocate. Like, let's talk about some potential negatives. So I think it made more sense to do in a way. Once Goddard, when Goddard was healthy, be on the choice. I think they'd done it either way. I think Zachard was getting

13:30signed now no matter what. I just think the Goddard thing made it like a no-brainer. Yeah. Or honestly, it could just be, it could be not related. You know, I mean, like, it could have been this whole thing happened. That's my point. I think that is, but, but the, the negative I would say to the timing of it is they need somebody now. Like, like, Dallas Goddard is not playing on Monday night. And he's probably not playing until after London, right? So I think at this point, the only two Titans on the roster are Johnny, Munt and E.J. Jenkins. Well, don't they have another roster? Can't they add another? Yeah, they could, but that I'm saying Zachard's can't be the Goddard replacement for Monday night. Right. And so they need somebody else for that. And so if you remove the emotional part of it, and it's hard to because it's Zachard's, right? He's going to set the franchise record for receptions in Eagles uniform. Like, you know, he's going to, he is an all-time great player. Like, whatever, like all the accolades you want to throw at Earths, he deserves all of them, right? But if you remove that part of it, when you're, when you're starting Titan goes down and you sign a 35 year old coming off an ACL that hasn't been in camp that hasn't played since last year,

14:30there are real parts of like how ready is he to play? How quickly can he contribute? Right? So from a immediate standpoint, I think the mood, I think Johnny Mutton, and Niji Jenkins will be the replacement on the field, of course. Yeah. But that's, but I think that would happen with anyone they sign. I don't think there's an out there traded for somebody. Sure. Like someone else, but I don't think they wanted to give up an if they think Goddard's right, maybe I could three, four weeks, whatever, it doesn't. Well, if I have they put them on IR, my guess is they don't. Like I would guess not to. So like, so like, do you really want to trade for a Titan and give up an asset, especially because right now, I mean, who knows what is available at the moment? Like, so maybe I can sign someone who might not be ready like that, but who I don't want to think about anything but some cash for. Yeah. But they probably didn't want to give them an asset for time. Now, what I like, what I like about the earth, the earth's signing is, you know, his game's not based on athleticism. So I don't, and you know, I don't know how long it's going to take him to learn like, hey, go run a hit route and the, you know, so I think you'll, he'll be able to play. I just mean, it feels like sometimes when how he has to fill roster holes, he just goes back to like

15:30the guys that guys have been here, right? And there's benefits to that. You know them, they've been here all that. It just does lack a little bit of imagination of like, he's not trading for this Titan. That's like a backup on a bad team. We're like, hey, this guy's a ton of upside and he like has been playing. Now, he could still do that before Monday night, right? We're recording this on a Tuesday morning. I just think the only downside to the earth's thing is they need immediate help at Titan. And I don't think he's providing immediate. I gave your point. I just don't think that's a downside to the earth's thing. I just other than trading for someone, there's no one who could do that. You could trade for someone. I don't, I don't need them to trade for someone if God is coming right back though. Do you know what I mean? But God, if he's going to miss three games, right? And it's a muscle injury in the knee. So like, who knows or wherever them, CLS, yes, in the name. I was thinking hamstring for some reason. But like, we'll see. I look, I think usually God, it is never, I never thought they were going to trade for someone. I thought it was either earth or pick your scrap peep Titan and bring them in. Like, that's you, it's pretty rare that teams make a trade for like a, if in this situation, if a guy's out for three weeks,

16:33and they have it, like, it's really rare that teams, oh, let's go trade for it. Why don't they they need it? They need it in somebody anyway. Like, even if God or didn't get hurt, I think if we would have done this policy, God or it's not hurt, right? So like, I would rather they sign Zachary's thing go trade for someone personally. Like, I then give up an asset to go. I don't think you're giving up anything of like value. But let's say it's like, it might not be someone available. You're just saying, like, go trade for someone like the Titan, like, there's might not be a player. They might not be for sure. They think could play. Yeah. I mean, and honestly, whoever they got, if he's a backup and not playing or whatever, this week fine. For next week's Zachary's ready, I'd rather have Zachary's on the field than whoever you're going to trade for if they're a backup hopeful guy. I'd rather have the guy who's made a ton of catches in the NFL. So like, I just kind of fully disagree with your old. I get it. It's, but it's one game. You just get through the game with money. Well, we think it's one game. You know, it could be two. You know, we don't know. My point is I'm good getting through it with Monteneja Jenkins instead of trading an asset. Yeah. I just think this points to like the poor job. How he did a Titan on the off. Yeah. I know. I think you would have said to how he day, day one of the off season,

17:36your top two Titans in like week 10 or whatever. And look, it's not week 10. He could make moves are going to be Dallas, Goddard and Zachary. It's like, I think he would be like, what are you talking about? Yeah, but I just think they play. I agree. Yeah. But things play out like, you know, I get, I get your point. I think how he wanted to do something more with the say in room and didn't. And that's a failure. But in this situation where we're at, like, I think this is the right. Well, and so the last thing I'll say from like a devil's advocate, like, you're now have another Titan on the roster that can only do one thing, right? Yeah. Well, obviously you would have liked someone to complot. Yeah. So, but again, I do think that if we're talking again, trading for someone is different. But if you're talking about signing someone off the scrap, I don't think they're tight ends out there who can catch a block. Yeah. Well, that's how it's how he's job to like find one, right? So like, go to your roster. I get what you're saying, but we're past that. We are in the here and now. You need a badge. I'm the off season in the here and now. There are two options. Signs, Zach, or whoever else is on the scrap, be or trade for someone. Yeah. I'm saying I'm good with them going to get Zach, it's rather than

18:39trading for some. I guess if you want to talk about the off season and the failures, agree. I'm just saying we're past that now. We're analyzing the earth decision. But I just think they might need to they might have needed to do both. Like Goddard is hurt. Johnny Munn is a fine backup. Earth's 35 coming off in ACL. Like they might need even more at the tight end. Like, like Earth's, it doesn't matter. It's on the practice squad. Like he's on the roster, right? Like he will play. But the point I'm making is like, they still need more at tight end. I don't think the solution at tight end, Camille, it's and I still think Earth is pretty good. Like I think he can be a good receiver, receiving tight end for him. I love the, you know, like the romantic side of his ending is career here. I think he'll be good in the locker room. Like I'm with all those things. It just feels like they need more than just Earth's. If Goddard is like, you know, we hope Goddard will come back and be 100%. But if he's not able to, like that's a major blow. Of course. Yeah. And look, they have more information on the knee injury than we do. They might know that it's a weaker two. They might know that it's three. Like they, they might know it's not that bad or it is that bad. So I think that the moves they make are more informed than what we know. So

19:43like again, I get your point. I just, I think there's a lot of like, first of all, we don't, there might not be a single tight end who fits your description who is available for trade today. Sure. You know what I mean? Like there might not be one in the whole league. Yeah. Probably might not be. You know what I mean? We're early in like, it's not like teams have tons of tight end depth where they're just treating guys off. So like, I get your point. I just think we may be making statements based on, it's not on reality. Well, yeah. Yeah. And the reality was they needed to sign a tight or they needed a tight end. And Zachards in my opinion was the best of the free agent tight ends. And they went and got it. Like, I, you know, I would have signed them. Like it's not a perfect scenario. Obviously, once I'm not in common and replaced Dallas, got it and do everything. But like I just, I don't think that was super feasible. Yeah. And I think again, to like wrap it up. Like it just is like, he did a bad job this off season. And now they're paying for it. Sure. Sure. Yeah. I think that's fair. I think it's fair. But again, I also think that, you know, I think he wanted to do it differently. It didn't work out. And he made other moves in other spots. And you know, that's the way that the roster game goes. Yeah.

20:46I mean, but I think that sure, I that yes, bad off season. But I think in the moment, I think he made the right moves. So I will, I will say to like very happy for Zach, you know, get to clear with the Eagles. You saw the, I'm guessing you saw the video of him at the airport Tuesday morning, like it'll be really cool for him to be back. Bad news Xavier Gibson. You're losing number 86. Oh, yeah. I didn't know if anyone had it. But yeah, it's going to be playing in 86. And it will be cool to see him set the franchise record, you know, hopefully the seat. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I, I, I, I love and catch just seems likely to do a opposite. Yeah. It'll be interesting. Like he has, you know, seven going into week 18. It's a meeting us game. Let's like how they, because that's a tricky thing too. Like Harold Carmichael works for the team. Yeah. You know, like I don't know if you want to like pepper him with targets. It's an interesting. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Look, if he doesn't get 11 catches by week 18, then this was a massive failure of moves. I would agree with you. Yeah. Yeah. All right. I, uh, I, it's exciting. If nothing else, sports to your point, especially fun, everyone's going to be excited to see Zachards and Eagles, you know, and again, I think it's a smart move. Yeah. I, I wanted to move to the

21:49sign before the injuries. So like to be close, I want to know in on the move, what have done it? I'm presenting the other side. I get of potential issues. I get it. All right. I want to get some more from the games. More takeaways. Obviously that we can talk about in the post game. But we mentioned it before, Ashley Furniture's Go Birds Blockbuster sale is happening.

We'll made it out to be. He was not real. I thought you made a great point on Twitter that like the guy found out during the week and you're moving right, you never played the position before. Played the other side. You know, like I thought the fact he was willing to do.

24:57I think it was a great teammate move. Like he could have, there's a lot of athletes in the city that would have been. I'm a center. Yeah. I play center. I've been a pro ball center. Like I'm not moving. So in here's where I go at this. And this is a criticism of neck and also Chris Cooper and Sean Manion to that to that extent. Like if I would have said to you the week, you know, a few days before the Washington game, right? Who's the player you think is most likely to get hurt first, which would be a sick question asked. But I mean, there's no man landed in the sky. So I was at dark question. I was at every single training camp practice. I saw every single day. They never did this one. They never did it. The fact that the top contingency plan you had, you did not have this great point all during training. It almost is like he got hurt and they're like, well, what do we do exactly? Or, or, and I asked Nick this on Monday. I said, how many times he take reps at left guard? You know, because I didn't see him training camp. And Nick basically was like, well, you can do things and walk through. And I think there might have been one day of walk through. They did it. That's not enough to prepare him in week two.

26:00Took it like, what would happen if in week one, would they have moved like probably not, right? In week one of mid game, land and what have left. But this is not week 10 or 11. Like you, you went into the season knowing landing, couldn't miss time. Cause by the way, we know now they knew he was more hurt. That right. That is the extra thing where it's like, they knew he got rolled up on it. And you still never tried it. That's it. That's crazy. That is, Ellie, you're right. That is a crazy thing. It's unfair to cam. And like, honestly, you set your team up to be less successful. And so the only thing I could think of as a couple, oh, I guess I guess not the only couple things. One, they didn't want to show it in training camp, which I thought about, which if that's the case is insane. Like you go too far with it. If you're not going to prepare for the top contingency plan in training camp, you don't know. So just do it when reporters aren't there. Well, so for training camp, we're there for all of it other than walk. And I think that's why they actually then they definitely did it. It's insane. It's insane to hide your top contingency plan. So I just, I refuse to believe that is it, right? Cause I,

27:04but too, I think that's it. Here's something we might need to think about. Right. But that's it. So I think that's a poor job by them, poor job by them. They should have planned better for this. If this was the contingency plan, you need it to practice it more in camp. And it's a failure to then go and tell cam like, to Monday, hey, guess what? You're playing left guard this week in the fact he embraced that and did it after not practicing. I think deserves a tell it is pot again. It is possible. They didn't walk through and told those guys were not showing anyone. But if something happens that like, Kim might have known for sure. That's all I'm saying. And let's say that was the case. You still didn't practice it in a real way. I mean, you were just saying they, they informed Kim might have known he was always going to be guard if this happens. Right. Let's all say I'm not, you know, I'm trying to give a player like, I don't know. It would be like if Jalen went down a week one and it was like, you know, you're like, you, you should have been more prepared for this is the point I'm making. Landon, you knew Landon could miss time. And it felt he did a poor job planning. So this brings to my second point. And I think since he's been hired, I've been very complimentary of him. Like, I think he had

28:06an awesome training camp. I think the backup offensive lines look pretty good. Boa, blah. One thing we might need to consider with the offensive line up being great through two games. And this like whole fumble weird thing. Like Chris Cooper was not a good offensive line coach in Minnesota. So certainly possible. Two games in the issue. Now, look, offensive line wasn't great last year, which is something you have to consider, right? Like he does a news. He does not have the talent that Jeff Stoutland had. Right. So he is not coaching with the same deck of cards. But the offensive line in Minnesota was bad under Chris Cooper. And the not preparing the team better for this switch. Look, it falls on Nick top, right? And then you could argue, man, and he's like, it's also in the offense. No, no, to say, hey, guess what? Like let's say in meetings, they were like, this is going to be our plan. We don't want to show people. You're Chris Cooper. You'd be like, nobody like if we're going to put Cam at center, that I'm sorry, Cam left guard. Like he needs to practice that, right? So I think it's a bad look for Chris Cooper. And I also think as the season goes on, if the offensive line keeps struggling,

29:08I think Chris Cooper's resume has to be brought up. I think I think Chris Cooper is the most in danger of becoming the ire of this fan base of things don't get better. I'm fully with you. And he's a little far down, but you're right. But I think because the Salah, it's exactly to say it's like the style he is following an all time led in this. Yeah. The greatest offensive line, Coach ever, all that stuff. I am with you. I'm bringing it up. I think the early returns on Chris Cooper are bad. Like you can't. Now I think it's too early. Like then it's too early. Yes, you're right. And the back up. So they develop it's too early, especially with the new scheme for these guys where it is more even they've all said like it's different for what they're doing and how they're playing in stuff. So like I get it. Way too early to make any full declarations. But I think you have to say like the Chris Cooper thing has to at least raise your eye. Sure. Like he is now manians the new piece too. And like again, watching the tape back, like I didn't think the offense line was like as bad because what always happens is,

30:09you know, people go the offensive line was bad. And then it just like snowballs into, you know, it was the worst offensive line. Like that's how it goes. So like it's always somewhere in the middle. But look, jailing got pressured on like 40 closer to bad than the middle. Though, for sure. One side is good and one side is bad. It's closer to bad. I think they've been bad. Like I don't think that's a point I make. Like I wouldn't say they've been below average. I've said they've been bad. Like I think that they've actually gone that level down where they're like not just below average. Like they're bad. Yeah, they've not 100%. I keep saying they've not played well. But that means they're bad. Like so two actually things off that one last night, I'm doing the, uh, Jalik's hunch. Oh, and we ask him about the heat. And I forget the exact question. But he goes, yeah, I mean, it's opposite of cold. That is true. That is true. The expression. So I've been saying this expression. You probably heard me say it. Kristen and her sister said they've never heard it. So Tucker, you chime in on this one. Have you guys heard this expression? Or when I say it, are you like, what is he talking about? You're ready? Like I'll go, there's a bet. I think there's a better than zero percent chance

31:12of that happening. Yeah, I've heard that. Yeah. Okay. Thank you. Thank you. They very common. Thank you. They were like, they never heard it said, I think you could say it a couple different ways. But that it non zero chance. Right. I think that is a incredibly common phrase. And Chris, again, Chris and then who was a Chris and her sister Danny? Okay. Okay. They're we're we're we're we're we're we're agree. I agree with you on that. All right. Just wanted to make sure. Yeah. No doubt. Because they were like, I've never heard it. No, that's Chris. And was like, he says it all the time. I don't know what he's talking about. What? It's also pretty easy to figure out. Right. I mean, we know her sister took it as I was saying like, there's a hundred percent chance. Yeah. No, no, no, no, that's dumb. Sorry. And Chris and sister, I'm sure you're not dumb. That was dumb. Yeah. Hey, what are you talking about? All right. We'll go out around the same pitch. But all you say was better than zero. Yeah. How do you do a hundred there? I forget that exact thing. You know, it's better than zero one and two three four. It's like five. Five is yeah. We got six, too. Like if I were to say to you, we're still really far from a

32:13hundred. I don't know. There's a nine zero. Yeah. I think seven would work to match. We got eight. It's like, uh, what's went all the way up to our office count? Yeah. Yeah. The office scene where he's like, uh, do you watch, do you guys watch office? Of course. Yeah. I was like, forget this. Five. I bet don't make me turn my neck. The, uh, Jim and Dwight scene. Don't make me say, wake. Ah, yeah. Yeah. The Jim and Dwight scene where it's like, uh, talking about the chances that the world can end or whatever whatever I'm butching. That's the realistic timeline. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. Yeah. It's like, what about this? I can see that. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Um, but anyway, I think Chris Cooper probably holds some blame here. I think we got a circle back and say, you know, this might not be going well with Chris Cooper. Yeah. No, like the mayor is not good way too early, but I agree. I think you have to like, through two games, if you're looking at like, what are the potential concerns with this team? I think you don't just say the Aladdin, you say Chris Cooper as well. Yeah. I agree. I agree. Now to the point like, who knows? Like to your initial point, the talent is diminished. Like Lane, I was then niggas night on the field. I mean, Drew Kendall is a six-round pick from a

33:16couple of years ago. He's playing right. Yeah. Yeah. You know, um, Tyler's scene is fine, but he's, I don't think he's much better. He's been the best line. He might be the one you keep. But that doesn't even mean that Tyler's, I don't think Tyler's seen special. Personally, I think he's like, uh, but like, this thing is like, Lane Johnson. My lot have not been great. Like, Lane, like, like, yeah, it might, who knows? He might not have any more. Like, we'll see. I'm not saying he has it. Here's a question. We'll, we'll do this conversation now, and then we'll really have it for weeks. Like, is this a permanent move? Like, so you're gonna have to, are you gonna ask Cam to go back to center? Like, it seems the way, like, that seems mismanaging too. I just did say something about it. Feel about, and then, that's my point. Yeah. Physically, I mean, let's say, let's say, can you tell me how they look? I think if this works, they're not going to change it. It's not a nothing decision. I agree. Like, what do you think? He's on the team around the way off. I think Benching Landon is like, look, if it is a big locker, I don't think, I agree. I don't think they do it unless they're awesome. Like, what I'm saying is like, let's say that

34:18three more games out, Lane, let's say this clicks. Yeah. And the interior line looks awesome. True kind of snap. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You know, I think anything short of really good, they go back to Landon and give them another shot and see if you, but like, if it's awesome, I don't, I don't know. Well, the tough thing too, twofold is one, I think it's a little unfair to Cam to ask him to like, yo, yo back and forth. Right. So like, let's say you, let's say it is a pain, but not a great for sure. But like, let's say it is awesome. And you go, you know what? It's Landon Dickerson. Like, my lot is best friend. He plays next to my lot. Like, let's put him back in there. So Cam goes back to center and then Landon's not playing well. So then Cam goes back to left guard. It's again, the office, like, SNP SNP SNP SNP. Right. It's like, you're just like, yo, yo, I'm back and forth. Like, I don't think that's fair to him. So that is what it is. I know. But well, even the fairness thing, I don't know if it's like a good way to care about the fairness thing at all. But I just care about what, what, what's best for the team? It might not be good for the, I'm just not the issue for me, but the fairness thing I don't care. Right. He's paid to play as the Eagles. Like, well, but there is like we think of fairness when it comes to like, you know, two of the point. He's the quarterback.

35:22Like, this is my point is like, you're a ligament. You're the center. It's not like you're like some like, well, he's not the best center in the history of the NFL. Like, right? You played guard as first year in the league. Like, I don't think it's that crazy. Yeah. I just think it doesn't set him up to succeed. Like, I agree. I agree. That's a different discussion. But fairness, I, well, then we'll compromise on this. I don't think it's a fair way that fair thing with Jalen, that much. Yeah. That's more of a you thing. Yeah. I think the way fans treat Jalen is unfair, but the team I don't. I just think the way if you move Cam around all season, then we can use whatever we want. Like, it's not helping him succeed. That's kind of, I don't disagree. But again, like they also have to, if they have to move guys around, they have to move around. Like, if Lannon can't play, Lannon, I just wonder what they'll do. Like it's a injury. And like, if Lannon, if Lannon is benched, like he's done after this year, like, Lannon won't be back. That's the guy anyway. I mean, we'll see. I don't know. Again, I know I am, I am impacted by being next to landed when he talked, but I'm just telling you, he did not sound like something. I agree. I heard it. That's like concerned about this. My guess is this will not, they're not

36:26going to be awesome. And Lanham will get his job back and we'll see what happens. Yeah. I think that's the most likely thing. But that's the other issue of moving Cam to guard is like, so now you're putting him back and forth. So anyway, I just, this whole thing to be honest, it just feels like it's being mismanaged. I agree with that. I think it's been mismanaged. I don't think that moving in bag of worth is as big a deal as you do. I think it's a, he has been in the league for a little while now. He has played both positions. I think he needs time being moved to left guard. I think it was good. You know, short we got, but I don't think like I think he's played gardening NFL before he's played center. I think you're about the jailing part of it. You're switching his center back and forth. I think if Jalen's okay with it, who cares? You know, yeah, I would be shocked if Jalen's okay with that. The point was they did it. Yeah. So Jalen's okay with it enough to play the game with your candle and Jalen looked awesome. Or they did it despite Jalen's wishes. I doubted it. Like I just don't see Jalen be like, I refuse to play. No, but I think Jalen could say I would prefer to keep the, the same center. Maybe I know, I mean, but they did, I don't know. I think we're making a lot of inferences here and all that. I just the hypothetical. I, I, for you moving Cam around a lot is a bigger deal than it is for

37:31me. I think it's the best way to do it. I think it's probably a big deal to Cam. I don't know that it is. How do you know? Well, I might like playing guard. What if he's like, wow, I get to my guardian. It's so cool. Like you've no idea though. Right. Honestly, you know, like, I don't like you for that way. You are speaking for Cam. Yeah, now to be fair, you know, so it did he tell you that he didn't tell me that I just say, who knows? I just can't imagine. My, my opinion would be I can't imagine he would be thrilled about moving back and forth. That way, maybe someone who enjoys the, the variety of it. I mean, how would anybody in their own job feel that way? Which depends what it is. If you can say, okay, you can go host for a week. I'd be like, sweet. Oh, so we can then go back and do that. Okay. I like this too. Like it just depends on what you do like and what you do. Like what if they asked you to do the social media videos? Again, it's about something I don't like. Like, that's what I mean. My point is, is do you know that Camdurgan doesn't like playing guard to any idea on? I don't know how to answer that. I just, you know, I can't imagine he enjoys it. Is my, I, I, I, I, I, like, why would he? He's been an all pro center. But because he might like

38:32playing card cards, maybe it does. Like it's like, look, I might be a great lineman. But if they let me play quarterback, I'd love to play quarterback. That'd be awesome. You know, I mean, like my point being that like maybe, you know, Brandon Graham, when they brought him inside, he's outside, maybe liked being inside. You don't know. See what I mean? I'm just saying, like I, I don't know for sure that Cam does like playing guard. Yeah. Yeah. True. I just can't imagine he was like, nice. I get to go against Jeffrey Simmons and have the owner. That was a specific interview. He's still got Jeffrey Simmons and Senator. Yeah. Well, it's also funny. Some of the reps people point out, like he did get beat bad on by Jeffrey Simmons. I'll want reps. Like, yeah, man, what'd you expect? Like it's his first game at the, at the position. Yeah. So, I don't know. I get your point. I just don't know that he feels that way. But yeah, I definitely agree that it doesn't feel very fluid with it. I feel like they're making it up as they go. I don't love that because they, they, and again, they're very well-run team. So again, we're inferring and guessing. But like, it just feels like one of the situations where it's like, that was shocking. So, and I don't think when you do something that's shocking when everyone's watched you all off

39:33season, it doesn't feel like that was a well thought out plan. Sure. Yes. I agree. Again, though, like they won the game. Yeah. It wasn't like, you know, yeah. So it was a good win. I just only to say it wasn't a well thought out plan. If it was, like they might have really thought it out well and internally been ready for it and all this stuff. Yeah. And just the way it was presented to the world wasn't that great. You know what I mean? It's like, I don't. Yeah. But I get your point. Like from the outside looking in, it doesn't look like I also think where it's worth the eight, the win has aged well in my opinion. Like I think the, the crowd of they didn't play well enough. I just firmly disagree. I agree. Like it was super hot. The offense actually wasn't as bad as people make it out to me. They had almost 400 yards of offense. They were 11 of 18 on, on third down. They held the ball for almost 40 minutes. Like there were a lot of positives on offense. They were just negatives with. And again, like it's so early. I mean, we see all these teams around the league. Like do people think that I mean, I'm trying to think what they gave the, the, the, the people they Minnesota is better than the bears. Like they might be. They might not be. Who knows? It's way too much. And when the jets almost beat the packers. Like they brought them to over them.

40:36They should have varying lens on any of the. I didn't follow that as closely. It seems like they messed that. Oh, Marty. Did you believe like I wasn't watching obviously because I saw the Ryan Pac-Man back. He let them like he had a chance to basically force the jet or the packers to punt them all back in a tie game with like 50 seconds left to minute left, whatever. And had two timeouts and somehow ended up letting the packers try Hill Mary. Like they never even pennable. It was crazy. There's only crazy because I don't want to back the defense. I was like the craziest. That is crazy. They kept him. Like he's obviously going to end up getting fired. I think it was just because it was one year. But yes, I agree. Yeah, he is. I don't think he has. Doesn't seem like a good hit. No, yeah. So but point being like I mean, I just think there's a lot of stuff that happens in the first few weeks of the season that doesn't necessarily mean. And God, you're a real struggling. I'm telling you. It's fine. It'll be okay. Are you going to eat anything else? Sure and get you out of here. Get you some rest on the children. I'm trying to think I'm chilling. I'm chilling. To be sure. Tucker don't make me. Well, yeah. Tucker's neck was sore this weekend. He can relate.

41:38Well, I said click in my neck. No, I just kept going like this. That's horrible. That sounds like a turn signal. I shorter clicks when I go like this. Does it so I can make my hand and my I'm not going to make my neck close. Yeah, I'm saying like just by like this, right? Like I don't even need to. I don't like I can do it a little bit, but I don't like it's not like a fun thing. But I mean, the neck click that would that would be weird. Yeah, my whole body hurts. Have I mentioned that I'm tired? You guys not complaining pod today. It is. All right. So, nothing else for us. Final thoughts on. No, I think we're good. Well, there is one other thing.

It's Fantasy Football Happy Hour with Matthew Berry, wherever you get your podcasts. Nicely done there. Thank you. I was really good. All right, final thoughts, man. Do you ever go through phases where you're having trouble spelling a word? So there are a few words that I, not permanently. Like, restaurant, I can never really spell it. No, just never disease. It's just two, like, I just, whatever reason. I can never really spell it. So I'm a really good speller. I'm not a great speller overall. I'm really good at spelling. Emily asked me to spell things for it. I consider myself a very good speller. So normally, no, I know you're saying there are just words that I always struggle with.

45:51I need to think I can never get unnecessary. That's one I want to see is an essence. I think I have it. I feel pretty confident, but I agree. Do you want to try to spell it? Well, so that's the thing is I need to write them down. I can do it there. Yes, I can try. Do you want to look up how to spell it? Well, actually, you're maybe not the one to do it. That's an auto correct word. That's a word that I know if I get in it. I get in the name of it. It will help you out as much as you think. Yeah, this is unnecessary. It's a hard one to solve. All right. So anyway, let me finish out my thought. Yes, yes. I'm going through a phase where I can't spell definitely. And it's so frustrating. That's a pretty easy. I know, but like, it's just, I don't know what it is. Like, and I always have to auto correct won't correct it. So I've been cutting and pasting me, me, me, misspelling definitely into Google and search it and have them correct it. That is so fun. 10 times in the past two weeks. It is. It is. Stop. You can't. I have no definitely can't stop. So basically, my issue with that and that's sorry, is it two ends of being your one, but I think it's here. I'm going to go UNNECESS ARY. Correct. Can I try to spell

46:52definitely? Boom. Let me try to spell definitely. Can I just give you a boom? That was good. Good. It's about D E F. Yes. I am. Yep. Define. IT. Yep. IT. L E Y. E L Y. It's just the word. It's just the word definite. It's just the word definite. And then L Y. It's super simple. It's a good way to think about it. Yeah, it's the only way to get about it. Yeah. It's like you really messed up the easiest part. I'm using it. Because you're not going to get this right on you. Like watch. I'll try to type it out right now. It's right now. You should be able to really stop. No, it's just some. I'm trying to like the E I stuff can be a little weird with words. I can never figure out. So rhythm. I can try. You want to try spell the word? Who knows how to spell it first? I hope people in the car are doing this along with them. Well, there's a Y in there and that kind of gets you. Yeah. Though it's not so fun when you're the one I know. It's not on the pod. Is it? Mr. Oh, it's so easy. Just do definite. R H Y T H M R H Y T H M. That's how I wrote it initially.

47:54I think that's correct. Yeah. That's how I wrote it. It's not correcting it on my phone. So yeah. That's good. And then I was like, great. Is there a second one? But I mean Apple and the agreement on that one. Yeah. It's just great. I just think spell check is a problem. No, I just think it's made us worse. Oh, wait. I also think it doesn't always correct things. Do you ever do a voice to text when he can't spell something? My wife does that on the time. Yeah. It's a good dog. It's a good idea. She'll be like texting and then all of a sudden I hear say like unnecessary. That's pretty good. Yeah. There's definitely like you in the press box. All of a sudden definitely rhythm. Here's like, what are you? What are you texting? Wait. Wait. Wait. All right. Unnecessary. I'm trying to give like a sentence with those three words. Unnecessary. Definitely in rhythm. That definitely wasn't unnecessary. Yeah. You fear that. What are you going to get? What a pod title. That would be. That is definitely. Yeah. Unnecessary to play that rhythm. The rhythm was definitely unnecessary there. There was a little you don't need to there. Yeah. I don't like ending sentences with is too.

48:56Well, no one does. You're not supposed to. It's a proposition, right? Yeah. Yeah. Amen. I mean, you can sometimes. Do you guys remember schoolhouse for rock? Of course. Conjunction. What's your function? My adjectives. I had a good computer game with that was a lot of fun. Did you? Yeah. I kind of think it's a little similar to the magic school bus. Yeah. I feel like the other saying there. Did you guys do reading rabbit? Yes. I did. That was a good one. Did you do reading rabbit? No. Did you do reading? I'm reading. You're reading rainbow guy. Uh, I was never a big take of the song. I just never watched. Yeah. Well, far burden. All of that burden. Just wasn't my like, it wasn't. It's not a reading. I get it. It's not a fan of reading. Well, I would take computer classes. Yeah. Interesting. We had like a computer lab. So do we. It's crazy. They don't. Middle school. We have like typing classes. Yep. I would never do in that. I feel like they probably don't do that anymore. Like a room of being like learn how to type, which is crazy because you probably still very much need to learn to type more than ever. I would like to first thank Shane, who reached out to me and felt me when it come to my list of 45 movies. He was like, I get it. That must be so hard.

50:01If you take it seriously, like respect. So Shane, you know, you know, I'm talking to you, buddy. Yes. I appreciate you for understanding the grind. And so you're saying you're final taking about a movie mental. No, no, no, I'm just throwing this. Okay. Mental anguish that I've been going through. That's a 45. No, I've never met Shane either. He just reached out. Okay. I thought I was. No, I didn't. But we did meet so many awesome people in in in shout out to Georgia couple. Shout out to the Georgia couple. That fan that they gave me was the all time. The Georgia couple you're talking about is the one that was sitting in front of us. Right. Yeah. They were the best. Yeah. They gave life. I believe the wife should be the wife, if not, was like, uh, didn't like me started to like me after meeting me. Not the matter of where friends now. So they gave me a little like electric fan for the game. It was I did they honestly. So I would have they got it for me. They brought it. It's just a five of them. I brought this for you. I was like, you are my hero. I'm in the Georgia couple. As much as I appreciate it when they gave it to me, it ended up being like a thousand times. Yeah. valuable. Then I never could have thought it was. So, um, no, I'm just I'm I'm ready for further

51:04forward. We have figured out it'll probably be early next week. If I had to bet one will actually do the pod, you know, because it's going to be tough this week with my actual birthday. I'm frying on right. We'll figure it out. We don't record Friday. The 45s coming. Well, I think we might have to record Friday 10, but to do an actual Eagles pod because I can't do Thursday. So we'll get one. Also, it actually works out well. I think because everything's because of Monday. Yeah. So either way, I am well, we'll get a new softy air. But yes. Um, so do you have a final thought? So I do. Um, I had a few I was trying to side from, but I will give this because I meant to give us a while back, but I'm I actually got into the US Open in tennis for the first time in years. I've heard you talk about it on. Ben Shelton. We need an American man. We need to we were growing up. Even though patriotic. No way about yes, it is. But it's more than like we have Pete Sanford. So we had Andre Agas. Jimmy Connors before that. And you know, we everyone like the, the, uh, I mean, the whole ride growing up in the Williams. Sure. Sure. I was talking about men. We don't have to be in their American tennis players. Well, I'm talking about we need a good American tennis player. A male. We've had women. The women have not fallen off. The men have fallen off.

52:06We're not at your point. And he Roddick in 2003 was last time. American male. Women's American player right now. Got to be Coco golf probably, right? Yeah. I mean, she's still around. But the point is like American women still win majors. It has been 23 years since an American man. It's not about to win the men's one. No, they lost. He lost in science. I'm just saying I was into it. It's the first time I watched like major men's tennis because they made it to the finals. Yes. Yes. When this had to, like a week and a half ago, two weeks ago, he sucks because of veteran and dog and yoga bitch owned the sport for so long. Like Americans just and there were no good Americans. I'm excited for American male tennis. I wonder if plus he's a lefty. Shots is always. Shots. So I called him Blake Shelton for a while, turned out his name. I've been a lot of people do that. Yes. I wonder if as many kids are playing tennis. It's possible bringing it back around. Yeah. Yeah. It was fun to get back into tennis for the first time a long time. And I meant to that while I was like, you know what? No, tennis is a fun sport. Ben Shelton. He's got it. So that's my, that's my take. Here's a take. I think tennis players should wear jerseys.

53:09I like this, but their name on the guy. I really like this. Elliot. You should have left with that. That's a freaking winner. That's a money-making idea. Yes. Imagine like, you know, it was wearing another indeed a shirt. Kids for you. Yeah. The jersey. Yo. Elliot. See. That was so many money. I'm having a mention tennis just so we do that. Have I told you my idea for a movie about a bug? I must have. I don't know. It is funny though. I actually, I'm going to write it down and I'll do it on the next one. Okay. So I actually, I did watch a movie on the flight out that it's funny because I was like, I actually thought about telling you about it because I think it is such an Elliot movie. And then I purposely was like, you know what I'm not going to. Yeah. Not go. Unless it was ballad a while. So if you ever heard of or seen the movie Dave from 1993 with Kevin Klein and Sigourney Weaver and Vingrains and Ben Kingsley. Is that the one where he plays the president? Yes. Have you seen it? Yeah. My dad loves that movie. It's a wonderful movie. Wouldn't he like it? It's so up his alley. I mean, I'm in the mood for a nice like fall asleep movie. What you call it? Dave. It's called Dave. It is when you're was it 1993. Beautiful. Wonderful movie. Perfect.

54:14Okay. Rainy day movie. I've never heard you check out Dave. It's a really good time. It's hour and four or five minutes. Yeah. Okay. All right. Look at this. We did something here. All right. We'll be back later in the week. Um, turn them 45. I'm going to tap and I get to see I can't wait. I don't know where it's until then. He's like James. Okay. Says give me the scoop.
