Speaker 1

This is the day you've been waiting for. Of course, welcome Eagles Free sixty insider Dave's Finnaro along with Glenn mc now Today we get to his bold predictions. The voice of the Philadelphia Eagles, Merril Reese, is in studio. We're trying to wade our way through all this off field drama to see a good game on Sunday, the Eagles and the Buffalo Bills. Are you caught up in running back Central? It's been a hell of a week.

What's going on in Buffalo with Lashawn McCoy. Chip addressed that today and it just his news conference saying, I made a mistake. I mishandled that. That's something I did not expect to hear, and he said it at length, he really did. And of course now you have what's gonna happen this weekend with who's gonna play running back for the Eagles. Yeah, you got Matthews back, so there's four choices. Well, we hope that that Ryan Matthews is back,

and you wonder how many carries he can get. You wonder if the Eagles will keep four running backs active on this game day roster. But let's first just shake hands. That seems to be the whole message of the week, right, I'll always shake your Come on, people, now shake hands with your brother. Everybody, get together one another and beat the bill. Remember who did that song The Mama's in

the Papas. No, maybe it's before my time there Buffalo anyway, But you know, of all of the nonsense that's going on here, Lashawn McCoy not wanting to shake hands is the silliest, most ridiculous, immature part of all of this. Well, you can be mad, you can be hurt, you have reason to be heard. You know, a year passes. Shake hands. Well from my standpoint, look, Lashaw McCoy the all time leading running back in Philadelphia Eagles history. I celebrate him

for all he did as a Philadelphia Eagle. I enjoyed working with him. He'll always be a Philadelphia Eagle to me. On Sunday, however, he's a Buffalo Bill and it's time to beat the Bills. It's time for the Eagles to get a little thing going with some momentum in the final quarter of this regular season. So we've got a lot going on today for you. A lot has already happened. Let's get you caught up on everything going on if

an overcare complex. It's our Eagles three sixty update. Hi everyone, I'm Alex Smith and this is your three sixty update. Today was Chip Kelly's final day of availability this week as the Eagles get set for Sunday afternoons matchup with the Buffalo Bills, and the big topic at coach Kelly's press conference was the return of running back Lashawn McCoy, and today Kelly touched upon how the McCoy trade went down back in the off season and how he was

traded wasn't handled right, And I've said that before. I did not get an opportunity to talk to him, and it's it's it's a lesson that we should never do. To be honest with you, is that we were told that the trade wasn't initiated and wouldn't be initiated until the next morning, so there were no phone calls to be made, and then all of a sudden, I'm driving to an event and he's been traded, and I felt bad that I didn't get a chance to talk to him.

I called him, he didn't answer my phone call. I know he was pissed and he should be pissed by rightly so, and every player that's ever left this team. I've talked to him personally. Myself, everyone that's in town, we talked to him individually. Here in our office, I talked to him. The coordinator talks to him, The position coach talk to him. We have a way that we do it that I think is the right way to

do it, and it wasn't exercised in that case. Switching from a former Eagles running back to a current one. Inside the locker room, we heard from DeMarco Murray, who discussed his speaking with CEO and chairman Jeffrey Lury and how he wants to be back with the Eagles next season. Yeah, I'm very happy here. You know, these are my teammates and my guys know, a lot of respect for everyone who's locker room, the coach, of staff, the ownership, and

I love it here. I think everybody. Everyone's frustratingly losing the two or three games the way we lost, and obviously the ranker isn't where it needs to be in you know, we're not playing in the way you want to be and play. You know, I think everyone's a little frustrated, including myself. And just got to continue. Like I said, oh you're long. You gotta come and work every day in battle and fight through it. And we're

just trying to get better. And finally we caught up with a couple of members of the Eagles defense as we heard from Cedric Thornton and Connor Barwin on what the Bill's offense brings to the table. You know, attack him a different way. Obviously against Brady, you were just trying to get him to move and get out of the pocket. With Tyroder, we'll try to do our best to kind of keep him containing and keep him in

the pocket. Oh yeah, definitely. H Brady is kind of thirty eight on the verge of you know, his career almost being over, and Taylor got more speed. You know. I just feel like we just had to contain him on outside and he got Shady back there too, so we just had to contain both of them and let our dbs do what they gotta do on Watkins and uh, just play as a group and have high energy and just know what's at the task and know what's at

stake and just come out with the victors. Finally, an injury update here as we wrap things up on this three sixty update, every single player on the Eagles roster was a full participant on Thursday. That is very good news heading into Sunday's matchup. Could be sure to stay tuned to Philadelphia Eagles dot com throughout the week for all of the latest Eagles news. Thanks so much, Alex, We've got a lot to get you today. Glenn, how those bold predictions coming along? You feel good about him?

I feel great about him. I think we're five for five this week. Yeah, and you have been on a roll. I mean I think he got one or two right last week two and a half. That qualifies as that's a role, that's you know, that's why they're bold. Coming up on Eagles three sixty, we've got the voice of the Philadelphia Eagles, Merril Reese in studio. He's been through this drama before, he's been through the former Eagle coming

back to South Philadelphia thing. Will get his take on it because he's the one who communicates to you on game days. And we'll also have Glenn's bold predictions.

It's that kind of weak here. We're all fired up. Eagles on a roll right, one win in a row, top of the top of the heap in the NF. Time for us to step aside. Let Chris

McPherson in with a look at the Buffalo Bills. The Bills are six and six thinking playoffs. It's time now to go behind enemy lines. Hello everyone, I'm Chris McPherson and it's time to go behind enemy Alliance presented by Gatorade here in Philadelphia Eagles dot Com. Look the Bills and the Eagles, they don't typically have a lot of history, but this is a very special week with the return

Alos Sean McCoy and helped preview the matchup. I'm bringing in the lead journalist from Buffalo Bills dot com, none other than Chris Brown. Chris from the Buffalo Perspective. What is Lashawn Shady McCoy brought to the offense is three one hundred yard rushing games this season and was he looking to do against the Eagles this Sunday. Well, I mean, he's been the engine for the Buffalo offense. I don't

think there's any question about it. In the first half of the year, it was kind of tough for him. He wasn't one hundred percent healthy, not fully recovered from the hamstring injury, so you really didn't see his full display of talent on the field through that first half of the season, but ever since about Week seven or eight, he's been fully healthy and he's been off and running no pun intended. I mean, he's had over one hundred yards from scrimmage in the last six games, factoring in

in the passing. Not quite as much as obviously on the ground, but this offensive line has done a heck of a job in front of him, and I think after they ran for about one hundred and fifty eight one hundred and sixty yards against the number one ranked run defense in the Jets, the confidence level went through the roof and they've been going ever since. So obviously McCoy is an engine to the offense there Chris, but quarterback Tirah Taylor a dual threat. You can run, you

can beat it with his arm. How has he helped open up the offense for McCoy, Well, I think they've used the run more to set up the pass, but they don't ask Tyrod to throw the ball a whole lot. He only averages twenty seven passes a game, which is the lowest among starters in the NFL, so they keep his pass attempts to a minimum. As a matter of fact,

when he's thrown thirty or more passes. They haven't won a game this year, so they try to keep him down between eighteen to twenty seven passes a game, and when they've done that, they've been successful. And you know, you look at some of his better games, his completion percentage isn't great, but he's highly efficient with the completions he's made. Last week's game against the Texans is a perfect example. He throws seven passes in the first half, completes four of them, but two of them go for

touchdowns on third and goal situations. So he's a guy that's making the most of the very few opportunities he has. There's not much of an intermediate passing game there with him. It's either shortened to the flanks or deep down the field, and he's been remarkably accurate on those deep balls. Now, of Chris, you mentioned the deep passing game. Obviously, Sammy Watkins is a go to weapon from the passing standpoint. Second year receiver. The Bills gave up a lot to

get him. What is he brought to the Bills offense? Well, again, here's another guy on offense who was slowed by injury. In the first half of the year, and then when he since he has been back in the lineup and they've been together now Taylor and Watkins for five games in a row, you see that on field rapport really starting to develop between those two guys. And I mean he hits him for two fifty three yard shots last

week against Houston. And when you have the safety cheating up in the run front to try to help slow Lashawn McCoy in that running game, it affords Sammy Watkins the kind of matchup you want to test a defense with, and more often than not, he's come up with some big plays to put them down there in the red zone and finish scoring drives. So, Chris, we've gotten this long in the interview, and we even't talked about Rex Ryan and the present that he's brought, especially to the

defensive side of the football. That defensive line, Chris, very strong, three former first round picks starting. What type of pressure do you expect the Bills to bring on Sam Bradford and the Eagles this Sunday. Yeah, it's ironic because I think a lot of people felt the defensive line was going to be the lynchpin on which this defense hung itself, and you know basically that defensive line has not performed up to the same capabilities that they have each of

the last two seasons. I mean, this was a team that led the league in sacks over the last two years with one hundred and eleven total, and right now they're twenty ninth in sacks and they only have sixteen on the year. I think the Rex Ryan defense was a culture change for those guys up front from they remembered from the previous season with Jim Schwartz, and so the results have not been there for them. The most consistent performers on the defense this year have been the

two starting cornerbacks, Stefan Gilmore and Ronald Darby. The rookie Gilmore doesn't look like he's gonna play this week. They're gonna plug McKelvin in instead. But those guys have been the two mainstays for this defense. They're trying to gain some more traction upfront. Jerry Hughes has probably performed the most consistent of that front four. Kyle Williams is out for the year and has been for the past few weeks with a bad knee injury, so he's not even

a part of the equation. And Mario Williams just came back from a foot injury himself, so it's been kind of a mixed bag for them up front due to injury lately as well.

Now time now for Glenn mac Now to out on the wire, to go to the top of the building, to go on the ledge and make some bold prediction. Guy Why do I fear you're giving me a little nudge off that they're gonna be Yeah, they're gonna be tremendous. Here

you go. Here's bold prediction number one. Tyrod Taylor, the Bills young quarterback who I like, by the way, is going to have a very difficult time passing against the Eagles defense. Believe it or not. He's had a couple of rough games, but he's got his feet and his feet are good, and he's gonna run for fifty yards against the Eagles. That's a good thing or a bad thing. I actually think it's a good thing because I think he's gonna have a tough time passing, so he's gonna

be in some trouble. Fifty yards will kill you. But he is dangerous that way, all right. So amazing, I really do well. When you look at what Tyrod Taylor has done, his numbers are, they're amazing. I mean, Tyrod Taylor is somebody that I don't think the rest of the league thought was a starting caliber quarterback. The job that Rex Ryan has done certainly outshines the job his father ever did with an offensive player with plan Actually

there's strategic quarterback. Yes, he certainly helps Sammy Watkins and Charles Clay and Robert Woods and let's Shawn McCoy around you. Yeah, he's done well. He's done well. Right here you go. Number two. The surprising thing is you can pass on the Buffalo Bills. So their defense was touted to be so good this year. Their defensive line was really regarded as one of the best in the league. It has

not been. Here you go, Their defensive line collectively has fewer sacks, quarterback hits and hurries than J. J. Watt by himself. And why is that? With Murray Williams and Marcel Darius and Jerry Hughes. It just doesn't add up. It doesn't add up. And I can't you know, I don't watch the Bills every week, so I can't tell

you what's not working. But it's not working. I think their defensive line has eleven sacks this year, and so therefore I will predict a clean line by the Eagles defense, the Eagles offense, clean game by the Eagles offensive line. I will say the Bills will have one sack, one quarterback Zach. That mean I, how about the running game? You see the Eagles running the football. I don't see that in the Bolt prediction. Sorry, right, number three, the

number three. Here you go. All of that, this plays off of the other one means that Sam Bradford's going to have a good game. He has not had a three hundred yard game since the Saints game October eleventh. He will throw for three hundred yards this week. Quarterback passer rating of over ninety nine his last three times out, hasn't turned the football over since the Carolina game. Good trends for Sam Bradford getting better and better and better.

And we'll talk to Merrill Reese about that and just a moment here, Merril Reese, next up, Glenn, Thanks for your bold prediction. Always a pledge, a wonderful job. We've got Merrill Reese coming into studio next. So much to talk to with the voice of the Philadelphia Eagles. Keep it right there, Eagles. Three sixty returns in just one moment.

the Philadelphia Eagles, the Great Meryl Reese. Ready for the first of three home games on Sunday, and Merrill, it is a great attraction, Rex Ryan, the Buffalo Bills, They've got Starpower, We've got drama. Oh what a week it is. Welcome to the playoff rings. Thank you, Yeah, and it's fun. You know. It's a year ago. I did a commentary on WYP and I said, I really believe that the best teams should go to the playoffs, and I felt this way that it was an injustice that the ten

win Eagles set home. I've changed my mom. I wonder why I I like the divisional races, and you know, I figured out that there are twenty two of the thirty two teams that have high hopes. Yeah, and the Eagles are one of them. In Buffalo is also one of them. Really good team that Rex Ryan has put together. When you look at Buffalo, Merrow, what stands out, what jumps out at you? Well, the tenacious defense that stands out.

Rex is his father's son. There's no doubt about that that he wants to punish a quarterback and also standing out, and I'm surprised we didn't even lead with it. Is number twenty five in your program, no longer number one in your heart, and that is Lashawn Shady McCoy, who will be occupying the spotlight on Sunday, I think to an even greater degree than he has occupied it all week. That's the reason I don't want to lead with it. I want to talk about the football game, not about

the size. Well we're talking about ridiculous, okay, But there is a football game involving Shady McCoy and he's a running is a great running back. That's the story. Now, this story is not because we've been through this how many times Merrill with Tara Lowens and with the Shawan Jackson donne to have it, Andy Reid and Brian Dawkins. And when the game starts, it's just about the football game. It is about the football game, but it will be

greater emotions. It's emotion when it Deshan Jackson comes back, just an emotional situation. And Chip always says, Chip's words are play with emotion. Don't let emotion play with you. So I feel Number one key to the game is find a way to tackle Shady McCoy because he's their biggest weapon. They can talk about Tyrod Taylor, they can talk about Sammy Watkins. That's the greatest player on the field. And what they have to do is not worry about

making highlight films. No highlight hits, sound fundamental tackling. Stop him and stop him for short games. And it's the discipline on defense. It really needs to be there. Yes, when you are on the opposite side of the field and the Shawn McCoy is running over there, don't give up your space. Don't don't give in to the temptation of running to the football. Stay disciplined, stay at home McCoy to cut back and on the other side of

the ball. The Eagles offense has been very inconsistent this season. Talking to a bunch of players this week about it final quarter of the season, here do you see the Eagles getting better to where we thought they would be? Offensively? Where did you think they would be? Thought they would be dynamic offensively. I thought they would be able to score points in a variety of fashions, running the football, throwing the football better in the red zone. I thought

they'd be able to stretch the defenses, which they haven't done. Okay, I will settle for consistently effective, and I think sometimes statistics do not tell the whole story. I thought that Sam Bradford played an exceptionally good game against the Patriots, even though the line shows that he only gained one hundred and twenty yards through the air, but he made money passes, He hung in there, he made great decisions.

I think I think that hope of the past three games, Sam Bradford has been ascending and he is looking more and more like the quarterback that this team needs. Yeah, I agree with you, very encourage. Yeah, it really isn't courage. I mean, merrill. If in the quarterback picture is loose out there, that story is the big one, right, Who where's the franchise quarterback? Is it possible that it's Sam Bradford's franchise guy? Absolutely as possible. You have to see

what this next month brings. But if he continues to play as he is playing, he can be that guy. The guys told me, A lot of players told me that before the game began, back in the locker room, he was the guy in charge of breaking down this game, and he gave them some fire and brimstone that he was every inch the animated leader, dynamic, and then they went on the field. So we tend to look at a quarterback's body language on the field and think we

know him. You don't hear anything from where we are every now al Dannuel who yelled the signals to the parabolics. But but you don't really hear the players and their quarterbacks rallying together. But they said he was a tremendous leader before they came Merl. The last time we kind of faced this situation, the Eagles had beaten Dallas in overtime, come home for two home games, then the game in Detroit. You figure, well, the Eagles with my ammy in Tampa

Bay and Detroit in good situation here. Now the Eagles have three home games. Lay it out for me, what's gonna happen. Well, I'll lay out one game. I'll lay out Buffalo. And I hope they lay out Buffalo because I think they can beat the Bills. And I think that if they couple the Bills win with that tremendous achievement in Foxborough, now you're getting someplace. But if they fall flat, against the Bills and lose, well, then all the wonderful things that we thought after the New England game,

all the excitement of that game goes away. It dissipates because it means nothing. What you have to do is seize the opportunity and build from that performance. Let me tell you something. If they do beat Buffalo and then they have a Saturday night here against Arizona, it's going to be something. I think this team has a great shot. I think I think this team of the three tight at the top of the NFC East has the best chance to go to the playoffs to win the division

mer final one. You talk about the emotion of the game, the former players that we've all loved through the years and coaches who've come back to Philadelphia. What is it like for you as the liaison to the fans on game day? What's it like for you now they're call number twenty five Lashawn McCoy running for the Buffalo Bills. In the past with little you know, DeShawn, and with Donovan McNabb and Brian Dawkins, et cetera, how do you handle the whole thing? Well? I handle it very easily.

When they introduced them, Mike and I will stand in the booth and employed and when I see Shady McCoy on the field, I know he will come over and give me a hug, because We've had a great relationship over the years and I wish him the best. But once the game begins, I hope they throw him nine times for a loss. I hope that at the end of the day he carried the ball twenty five times

for forty six yards or something like that. That's that's when I but as I call a game, Dave, I really have a motion that goes along with the play and the situation. But I'm not thinking anything about Shady McCoy the person. I'm hoping that the Eagles win, But I'm calling the play as I see it and hopefully accompany my description with the proper amount of emotion that each play deserves.

We're gonna be ip office Party, brought to you by Rico. We're back Eagles insider David Spidero along with Glenn mcnow and we've got our final segment here off Eagles three sixty and that means it's time to have a little scouting report on a player has had one heck of

a week. Malcolm Jenkins in ninety nine yard touchdown return off an interception, NFC Defensive Player of the Week. He's the subject of the study from Game Plan host Mike Quick and I crease. All right, Mike, the progress report brings us to who I believe to be the code defensive player of the year for the Eagles to this point, along with Fletcher Cox, is Malcolm Jenkins. Progress. This guy's

been doing it all year. Yeah, I'm with you on that, but he's getting better and better as the year goes along. Here watching here, you gotta play earlier. And to me, this is pre snap recognition. Now he's in the slot, but once he recognizes this tight end motioning across the formation, he understands it's more than likely a chance that this ball is a rocket screen to the outside. I like the way he doesn't allow himself to get blocked and

he jumps to the outside. Such a smart player, and this is one of the guys that does a lot of game film study. Knows recognizes as you said, and it wasn't gonna get blocked. And he's a sure tackler. He gets to the ball carrying and he takes him down right away. Now you would think the Patriots say, Okay, we gotta matchup advantage here. We gotta speedy slot receiver here, and then we got him matched up on Malcolm Jenkins. They're gonna run this through route and Malcolm does a

great job of covering it. It's a post wheel combination. You'll see where his skills as a cornerback comes into play here. They're trying to get the wheel route deep ball down the sideline against him, and he is stride for stride and makes it very difficult for Tom Brady to fit that ball in. Yeah, with that type of coverage, they're gonna basically need a perfect throw to get that completed. Now, this is the big play of the game. Yes, Patriots

driving down looking to go up seven. You're gonna see Malcolm Jenkins again here in the slot on a three by one set against Danny Amndola. Now he realizes he has inside help from Walter Thurman. He's basically gonna shield Amndola to the inside to his help to Walter Thartman. They understand that Tom Brady wants you to go to a Mendola. He's got in and out coverage on Amndola. He tries to steal fitted in to Amndola and this

is just great coverage. They squeeze it, they get the tip ball, and it's often running and Tom Brady's gonna make this play now it's not gonna happen. And the great thing I love about this play is that Malcolm has been so close all year long with having one of these pick sixes, and I'm glad it finally came to fruition for him. Ninety nine yard touchdown interception retire. Great played by Malcolm. Jenkins did a lot of talking last week, challenged his teammates, challenge this team to stuff

up and perform. He led the way. That's what leaders do. Thanks so much, guys. Time now for our emiros. So it's on the menu segment What's in store for you on Eagles three sixty on Friday, We've got zach Ertz in studio, time for his crunch time. We've got the key numbers of this game, or Stat's Only Teacher with Alex Smith, and then Chris McPherson joins me and we go over to key matchups. As all the injury information settles down and we actually talk football, Eagles and the Bills.

That's coming up for you on Friday, five o'clock on Eagles three sixty. Glenn, I gotta get your final thoughts. I gotta get where you are thinking on this Thursday evening Eagles Buffalo, who you're leaning toward. I think this is a tough one. I think the Eagles are gonna win the division, but I don't know that. I think the Eagles are going to win this game. Tell me, I think this one is going to be a very close game. I think it's going to be decided by

three points one way or the other. This is the real toss up game. I don't like the Eagles against Arizona next week, but looking ahead, I think they win those last two games in the division this year, and they take the division at seven and nine, at maybe eight and eight, Okay, So I think this game is a swing. This is the toss up game. I don't like Arizona. I like the last two. Okay, Well, disregard what Glenn McNew says about this. Ask me my honest opinion.

You know, no, I think it's gonna be I think the Buffalo Bills are a really good team and I think it's a tough matchup. And the bold prediction you made that the Bills will have trouble throwing the football was really surprising to me. Yeah, with Watkins and Woods against Maxwell and Derrick Row, who was terrific last week. But the more tape you have on players, the more you can identify their weaknesses. It's going to be an even bigger challenge this week for Row than it was

last week. They've had a tough time getting it to Watkins this year. He's Tyrod Teller is having a good year. Sammy Watkins numbers are not that impressive.
