Eagles Have the Best Dynasty Window in Philadelphia Sports History Jul 28, 2025

Show notes

We welcome David Ramos from the Discord as we get excited about Jihaad Campbell, chat about how we believe CB2 is Adoree Jackson's job to lose, and we ponder if this Eagles team has the best dynasty window that we have ever seen in Philly sports.

Show notes

You might not like what I have to say about Cooper DeJean upfront, but by the end I think you can at least see where I am coming from. Vic Fangio is a genius, and has the best supporting cast in the league.

Roger Goodell is the Enemy of the Eagles Jul 22, 2025

Show notes

Rodger Goodell and the inner circle of the owners on his side is actively trying to dismantle what the Eagles built, and no thinks one Jalen Hurts does anything. We'll I've had enough of that shit! Go birds.

Birds Aren't Using 32 on a Prospect | Some Draft Thoughts Apr 24, 2025

Show notes

Some quick draft thoughts! I've thought all month that the Eagles are using pick 32 for a vet, and I am not backing down now.

Sean McVay Belongs in the Hall of Fame of Whiners Apr 03, 2025

Show notes

As if this week wasn't dumb enough both Sean McVay and Sean McDermott both showed their cards about why they think the Tush Push needs to go. The real reasoning? They just don't like it. That's it. That's the wwhhhhhholllllle argument. What a bunch of losers.

How Many Team Do You Believe Want to Ban the Tush Push? Mar 28, 2025

Show notes

Can you come up with 24 teams that would want to ban the Tush Push? I couldn't. But I do think you could convince at least 5 teams to say yes! Also, how would you feel about trading Jahan Dotson to the Packers? Let's get it into it.

11 Possible Trade Partner Before the NFL Draft Mar 25, 2025

Show notes

I've been deep in the Pepe Silvia mode, chain-smoking and piecing together where the Eagles mail's is going. Grab your coffee and tinfoil hats, because we're diving into the Eagles' NBA-style offseason strategy. 11 trade partners, mainly in the AFC and a reminder that the future RT tackle of the Eagle might be on the roster already.

Dillion, Uche, Jackson, and why the Eagles are building this way in 2025 Mar 14, 2025

Show notes

AJ Dillion, Josh Usche, and Adoree Jackson... not that exciting right? Have no fear, the draft is near and it's something the Eagles have nailing which is a lot different the last time the Eagles won a Super Bowl. I also get into why I think the Commanders made the biggest mistake of the off-season by trading for Tunsil.

CJGJ GETS TRADED | ANTHONY RICHARDSON, EAGLE? Mar 11, 2025

Show notes

WHOA! Didn't see CJGJ getting traded. What are the Eagles going to do next? I think they might go after Anthony Richardson now that Kenny Pickett is in Cleveland.
