Transcript

00:00What did you make of Nick Sirianni's act after they barely did beat back Cleveland?

00:05And if you were to go about trying to fix that team, what would you do? How would you do it?

00:10Yeah, first off, like, I was trying to think of my own career and coaches in the NFL right now.

00:16Like, I can't imagine my head coaches that I played for, be it Joe Gibbs, be it Mike Shanahan,

00:23ever engaging in a tete-a-tete with the fan base, right? Especially the home fan base. Like,

00:31I can't even imagine stooping to that level. Like, what are you going to gain from that?

00:36It just looks so petty. And like, what, you don't expect your, you expect your fans to

00:42cheer for you when you're playing well, but when you can't beat the Cleveland Browns,

00:46or you're barely beating the Cleveland Browns, like, you don't expect them to be disappointed

00:50in your performance. I mean, what world do we live in? So there's that aspect of that.

00:56And then when I start thinking about the Philadelphia Eagles, and I think top three

01:00or four offensive line in all of football, I think about A.J. Brown, Devontae Smith,

01:05how good they are there, Dallas Goddard, and the rest of the tight ends, how much talent they have

01:11there, Saquon Barkley. I'm like, this is one of the most, if we started at the beginning of the

01:16season and said, Hey man, the most talented teams in the NFL, the Philadelphia Eagles would have

01:21been in your top three discussion without question. And I don't care who you are and

01:26only put up 20 points at home against the train wreck. That is the Cleveland Browns.

01:32That's an issue right there. That is a huge issue. And, you know, I don't know. I don't know

01:37what you do. He's already like, what are you going to do with Nick Serrano? He's already

01:41taken away the defensive play calling from him or the offensive play calling from himself.

01:44He doesn't call the defense. He like, like he makes some bad decisions on fourth downs.

01:49Like what are you going to, what are you going to do? I don't know what the answer there is,

01:54but I expect better performances out of Philadelphia. I expected them to absolutely

01:59boat race Cleveland in that game and to only win by four. There's something that

02:03just smells fishy there in Philadelphia.
