With the Eagles suffering consecutive losses, letting leads slip away, they have been outscored 46-3 in the second half. What do the Eagles need to do to get back on track? Adjustments in the second half. They have been the worst team in the league in the second half. What are the adjustments like in the second half? Because I think for us, you only have 15 minutes at halftime. So, what are those adjustments like? What's working, what's not working. Simple. If it doesn't work, let's discard it. The Eagles have had the biggest coach-player problem in this league. In what sense? As if the coaches couldn't prevent it. As if they were too full of themselves
. They say, "Oh man, I just have to prove I can displace like I could put a four like Tampa Bay against the Cowboys." I will not fail to take a three- possession lead in the last quarter. I don't care how good my team is, I take all three possessions. How many more times do we have to keep learning that? We learned it in Detroit, San Francisco, so what? The NFC Championship Game? Yes, I did it. What? I do n't understand. How many times are we going to learn from this, brother? It's not about the exclamation mark. It's just the end point.
Hello. Like, hi. It's just the end point. Brother, I don't need to keep fighting when we can get three possessions. It's the ego of the coaches and that mentality of saying, "let's bury them." Sometimes, burying them is simply about doing the little things right. Just do the little things. The situations. So what happened to this Eagles team? We talked about them, we're talking about them in the second half. But what went wrong? First losing record since 2021. I bet A.J. Brown is smiling somewhere right now. And I'll say this, he's not smiling because he's happy the Eagles are doing badly, but he's smiling as if to say, "I told you so." We're a good football team, but we can't execute.
Why can't we run it? We had a whole fanbase angry at A.J. Brown because I expected more. I've never seen anything like it. A player expects more from an organization and wants to play better. He expects to get better numbers and the fans are angry because he expects that. Oh, but we're winning. Just winning only works for a while, and now we're seeing that. You can't keep winning by a little when you lose talent. Because the other teams have talent too. They have the talent, right? They were barely winning. They are escaping, escaping. Like, look, like, there was a statistic with the Chiefs. It was about 2 years ago. They won every game, uh, every game that was close by
a margin of one or two points. They won like 10 games or something. You can correct me if I'm wrong. I just know, I just know that it's something like that. Alright. Yes. Last year they lost every game by a narrow margin. And this year they're doing it again. So, what I 'm saying is that you can't, you're not going to be able to just get away with it every year. And especially when you lose your right tackle. You trade for a future Hall of Fame wide receiver. The guy you wanted to be number one is out with a hamstring injury. Your starting running back is out with a hamstring injury. And what I think, what I don't like about the Philly system is that they don't have a workhorse.
and you don't want to, simply turn someone into the sole workhorse. That's the ego within the players. Who should it be? and the organization. Who should be that workhorse for the Saquon Barkleys? Simply place it over his shoulders. Put it on your shoulders. We're paying you 20 million a year. Any other player earning 20 million a year touches the ball 30 times per game. Bijan plays the 30. Bijan too. Whether it's 18 by land, I'll get another seven by air. The same goes for Gibbs. Yes.
They're workhorses. They open the game to everyone else, but they don't want to put themselves in the center. And simply hand it over to Saquon. Because, guess what? Jalen Hurts has to be in my hands. Ugh, that's tough. I have to take care of my boy J. I think Jalen just wants to. If Jalen didn't throw the ball at all, I think he'd be fine with turning the ball over 50 times if that led to a win. But they are not demonstrating that, however. If that doesn't work, do something else. As I believe there was a statistic like Saquon, he had 15 carries, 86 yards. He was averaging about 5 yards per carry in the league before the injury. Why isn't he touching the ball?
Come on, man. That's what's wrong with the league. Everyone feels they have to eat. Sometimes, being a role-playing gamer and getting paid thanks to someone else is still a good job. As long as there is food on the table. We're ok. As long as there's food on the table, you know what I mean? Not everyone is destined for the Hall of Fame. As if that were the problem. I'm telling you, it 's egos.
