I'm going to tell you right now that this year's champion, this past year's champion is not in the top five. Oh. But she is looming. And she's looming. Diana Rossini has said it does seem like per front office sports that her new destination will be announced shortly. Oh, a new destination. A new destination. And I want to

2:07warn everybody on the Eagles inside of the year power rankings that this show cares about scoops and insider information. Yes. And if Diana Rossini wanted fair and square gets the most scoops, she could win it again. Wow. Everybody's got to up their game. And she did say, per the New York Post is the per the New York Post that when she does come back to whatever platform it is. According to front office sports, she'd been talking to a few that she will tell her side of the drable. It might get her at the top right there. You never know. That alone. You never know. Eagles inside her. Eagles inside. We never know. You never know. Of course, Diana would be welcome back on this show whenever she decides to return. So. Well, at least it has to come back to when we are we doing a trophy. Yes. She wins it again. She can exchange to give it to herself. Yes. I know Elliott is hoping she will be here with a pillowcase over here giving her the award much like he had to

3:11But here she is not in the rankings yet. No scoops. Obviously, but you know eyes peeled So here are the top five Eagles inside of the your power ranking sitting at number five Zach Burman ZB She's doing a solid job. No huge scoops, but doing a solid job great job covering training camp It'll do a great job during the year I think if you were to win this thing I don't know if you can just win it with consistency. Yeah, you know, you need a You know big one now and I think it now and again So you some type of scoop you need some type of scoop coming up at number four He is slowly going down the list as his scoop becomes aged and that is Joe Santa, liquido Did have the AJ Brown requested the trade story did have the JL story has had a good off season I'd say he's been riding that one for a while he has he has seriously yes Number three doing a solid job this off season as he always does Came in fair and square number two last year is what it is that is Jeff McLean Yeah, now he did have a scoop last year that Diana was the Eels and Saturday year that is a scoop

4:13But it came too late. Yep. Yeah coming in at number two Having I believe he had a great training camp Elliott short whatever his name is. Oh, man I think that may have seen it for him right now I mean it got him number two now Ike yes speak before we get to number one I think if you could bring out your phone for a second because I do have an Elliott thing to To address I want you to go to my Twitter page and look at look at the photos I want you to go to my Twitter page and look at the photos because the photo of me and Elliott and JLX Hunt of course the JLX I'll start Monday And when you have it off I want to ask your ask a question Okay, you have it. Yeah, so Elliott says he's five nine and a half If he's five nine and a half how tall am I? If Elliott is actually five nine and a half given that photo six feet it will six one That's one. Yeah, yeah, well you got your head on one so and so it's yeah, but yes I get the point that you're making. I mean the top of his head is at my chin

5:18And I'll tell you I'm five ten and a half so oh you try to say he's not even five nine Oh, he's like five seven five eight look at him looks tiny. I mean, I look tiny next to JLX Well, yeah, I was gonna say with JLX in the middle there. Yeah, of course. Yes, I mean come on Elliott You may yeah now that was shoes on Elliott is saying that it was shoes off. He might be five eight Was shoes off he might be five eight. Oh, he's five eight was yeah She's off. He's five seven. I want to measure him in here. This is not five. He's not allowed to say five nine and a half Unless I'm six one right unless I'm six one. I'm not six one Yeah, and at number one a a debut and I don't think he'll stay here all year because this will probably be the only thing He ever gets from an Eagles perspective But is Zach Barron who had wrote the GQ article and had the very long interview with Jalen I mean that was you number one. Yeah, I mean that was the most in depth. I think conversation

6:18We've ever seen anyone have with Jalen. Yeah, yeah and The face it that he nothing was saying that was earth shattering but still but still he didn't even do a sit down Yeah, that was a big deal. I think it's a huge deal In all of this anybody else other than a TV production crew got to sit down No, anybody else has got to sit down and most of the sit downs and this is where I'll also give credit to Zach Barron most of the credit most of the sit downs he does with TV are Eight minutes and maybe we see four minutes of it. Yeah, the the YouTube video of the Zach Barron interview was 50 minutes long or something Playing pool with Jalen, you know asking Yeah, it's on YouTube as well. I didn't even watch it. You know, I think you should watch it. Yeah because I know you saw most of the Imports clips and stuff. Yeah, but his facial expressions. Yeah, I think Add to add to the answer. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, I think so with you there. Okay. So that's Zach Barron's Yes, or the GQ's YouTube. Oh GQ's YouTube. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. So

You're also by saying that and I saw that with uh, I don't know The chef they had it with a pro football talk. I've seen that about the Diana Rossini thing. Uh, I think it was pro football talk Okay, because they were they were quoting. I think a New York post. Yeah, I think that's what it was um That puts Andy from different in a tough position.

You know, I don't do the the hockey's and all I'm a real brother man You know That means I'm a football guy. I don't know that basketball already my thing I left that when Kobe you know, you know when Kobe retired. I feel I've been done with best. Yeah I'm good, but I'm but I'm back, you know, and I'm I always listen to it You know, I'm saying all right now. I'm gonna tell you this okay the guy dare kind of kind of set me off I'm not gonna be you know Real or say only what do you say? Yeah, he said a few he said a few things when I'm saying what is he said? That uh some people he like signified. That's what moist males do they Men don't do that god Yeah, god is what when they don't want to say the name I'm gonna say his name, but somebody that cut dog

10:34I know you talked about me Yeah, I actually think he was I said shut did not I thought he was talking about Chuck. No, I think he No, but he was also that somebody's got to say that Jellin is the best and other yes, I'm the only one that all You know, of course, I'm talking about you, and Christian says it So my point is this here. Yeah, and then I want both of y'all because both of y'all guys are or athletes You know, I'm saying of course so And in the game of football or any sport at that matter What can't because he said that he he believes what his eyes tell him his eyes see What is it that your eyes can't see can your icy championship mindset I can uh spake Oh, I think you you can equate how someone is playing to a championship mindset But as far as that just being right a entity. I know you can't see a championship mindset right and can you your eye see

11:36Someone that has that clutch jing when you turn it on Certain parts and certain moments of a game. I'm gonna say that of this yeah I tell people all the time Football games are one in moments not in 60 minutes. I know there's a there's a there's a notion out there Oh, it's a 60 minute game. No, it's not Well, yes, it is, but the game is one in moments of the game So what I'm trying to say to you guys is this yes Jellinhurst has mastered Mastered the ability to You know to shoot picking true's The moments that he has to come through. Yes, you don't The time just pick times to be no no no no no main diet. I don't mean that's like what I mean is this You have been football you have to you got to it's a team sport. Yeah, of course. People keep saying Jellin was carried but But if you look at any winner you're gonna get a quarterback that was carried by the other teammates

12:40occasionally regardless of what's up regardless of what y'all think about Passing touchdowns and passing yards There's a receiver on the other side of that on the other end of that throat. Yeah So that's a team that ain't that any individual stuff I know how y'all like to push that narrative, but it's not well, but when you look at Jellin's game Yeah, this last game that we've seen because this is things you remember the most is the last performance. Yeah He lost that to the Niners. Oh, no, that wasn't sorry And that's right. That's why you too, but he wouldn't have lost at home with to the Niners had the quitter That's in that moist guy in New England now who I refrain from saying his name anymore, you know, yeah Didn't intentionally drop the ball, you know I'm saying so that hurts his his chances of even winning that game because Jellin had no turn over the net game He played very good in that game as decision-making was good in that game We should have won that game, you know, I'm saying if the guys do their job, but we didn't yeah, but Josh Allen

13:42Had a five game stretch of two turnovers or more Five-state games. Did y'all say anything about that? No, no, no, no You'll say he's the best in the NFL. Of course. Okay. Well Typically when someone is the best that means you've accomplished something you won You've won at the highest level. No, he's not like well, sure he's coming He's trying to he's trying to get there to lead and change the damn rules for him for the overtime And then they end up cursing him because I took his office seven and over Well, there's a thing OG Lebron Lebron was the best player in the league before he won a championship Mr Don't talk about that bro I'm not a big of course. I'm not a Lebron guy, but he was the best player in the league before he won a championship Like you can be the best player in the league before you win a championship I Know I never had look. I never had Lebron the best in the league something like and Yeah, I would say in 13 he probably he

14:44Kobe won last one in 10 Yeah, okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you know, it's like I'm just way more advanced. Yeah Like when you when you say the best in the league, right? And I'm talking about it's what in Bennett football Yeah, what does that look like because to me is not like I'm no no, I understand. I do know what you're saying Here's the thing. Oh, gee. Oh, Jay I know you're not an NBA guy anymore. Do you think Jalen bronzer is the best player in the NBA He's clearly no, yeah, of course not so you If you mean it's probably you know top he's top 10 player at this point, but like nobody thinks is the best player in the NBA The Celtics won a championship nobody thinks that Jason Tatum or Jalen Brown was the best player in the NBA Like who is the best player? Well, it's entirely possible next year or to me Right, it's entirely possible. Yeah, I think at this point you have to give it to SGA You think SGA is not SGA or anything you know, kids. Yeah, SGA or Yoke Luca

15:49No All right, you disrespect Luca Lucas a killer man. Yeah, yeah, I'm what I'm going there. Yeah, Luca. I got Luca. I got Luca for right now Until until things never want a championship there. So what is So here's the thing you can be the best player in the league without winning a champion. Yeah, we just we just proved it if you think The best player in the league he hasn't won a champion. Yeah, he's only been the final swan Yeah, I hear you want an MVP. He's never even won an MVP. Yeah, but Right, but that like you you you switch in sports. So I got Allifications for different things Right, I'm a football guy and I know more football. Yeah, but this is Yeah, where are you in Josh Allen, right? That's what this is. Yeah There's there the argument that he is the best football player in the league Certainly best quarterback

16:50This is you can literally pick that argument apart first of all the MVP he got was just was Lamar Jackson's MVP He shouldn't not got to the level of the year before he better The one the year before that he should have won the year before he was great last year too. He's great every year now You don't have no great He had foul straight games with two or more turnovers. You just don't watch football that the problem is the problem is all you do is watch the Eagles All you do is watch the Eagles. That's the problem. Just watch Yeah Just watch him play I don't I don't want to go on. He's clearly the best quarter Is there's debate about who's the best well the only person I would put in his classes my homes As you but I'm saying you could say Lamar you could say Matthew Stafford you could I think challenge is phenomenal, but he's not flawless like he's not insolable as a quarter I think he's flawless or a fallible, but I think he's the best

17:52He's not think that's a fair I'm sorry you meant for that. Yes What my problem with him spike is the clutch team whenever the moment is big he shrinks. That's not it's not true The problem It's not true. It just is true. No, it is just is because you're saying it's a team Here's a thing here's where your whole thing gets mixed up you say it's a team game And then when his defense fails him you're not allowed to say that because not a team game. It's only a team game It's only a team game when you get Rouged to a victory against the Rams and the playoffs then it's a team game It's only a team game. It's only a team game when you say your quarterback played perfect and scored 19 points at home and And say that a wide receiver dropped the ball on purpose I said he played good he played good enough to win is what I said He scored 19 points, but here's when when there's what I would say Yeah, here's what I would say to this Let me land in my land my playing on the rail here But circling the airport for half hour everybody's throwing up

18:56The games against us right the two games against us whatever Josh Allen had brainfarts and them games by throwing the ball to the in the wrong direction He misread in his receivers. That's what you call clustering that mean the game with the moment was too big for him So he said you know, he choked under the moments. That's all I'm saying. It's right. He missed him. He missed a throw against the Eagles He did We all wish he had a bat I mean, no wait wait wait, sorry sorry sorry. I don't do that Said we don't wish that he's thought the other team. We don't wish he had a back We always he had a back it's just a crazy thing. I would have never said something like that Louis Yes, so you're the top five of five coming out. I'm gonna tell I don't mean to put more pressure on you What if you do not nail this top five of five we may never give you another chance I'm betting on myself. Okay.
