00:00Does it feel like this is an off-season early win
00:03for the Eagles entering 2025?
00:06I mean, look, it makes their lives a lot easier
00:10that they don't have to reinvent their own wheel, right?
00:12Like, I think that certainly helps
00:14because you aren't going to stop Jalen Hurts
00:16from getting the ball on third and one
00:18and fourth and one going forward.
00:19You know, look, I think Sean McDermott and the Bills,
00:22they were able to look at this and go,
00:24yeah, we want to ban it because guess what?
00:26Josh Allen doesn't need a push from anybody.
00:29He's 240 pounds.
00:30He's 6'5".
00:31He can knock half the linebackers in the league
00:34on their keister.
00:35So he doesn't need anybody to push him.
00:38What he needs is the refs to get the call right
00:39in the postseason, and that'll change things.
00:42But I digress from that painful moment.
00:44Digress.
00:45Yeah, beyond that.
00:46Yeah, look, the Eagles are going to be tough regardless
00:49with or without this thing.
00:50So they were going to still be able to win the NFC East
00:56and go back to the postseason.
00:58I don't think it really impacted them one way or another.
01:01Again, it's just one less thing they got to do this offseason
01:03instead of coming up with a new version of the tush push.
01:05I thought it would have been really interesting, too,
01:07if the tush push did get banned and the Eagles came up
01:10with a different formation, a different way to sort of go
01:12against those rules and all of a sudden have that chip
01:14on their shoulders.
01:15So I do think more teams should use the tush push here.
01:18But you are looking at the Eagles season.
01:19It's 11 and a half mark.
01:20And also, the NFC East getting the draw of having two tough divisions
01:24and then having a first-place schedule for the Eagles.
01:27The 11th is like, yeah, they should be able to get 12 wins
01:28out of 17 games.
01:30That is a hell-on-wheel schedule that they have.
01:32But at least they do have the tush push.
01:34What's your outlook here for the defending champions
01:36and what they expect to do this season?
01:38It's going to take a Herculean effort to upseat them.
01:40Look, I think Washington regresses.
01:42I think it's really hard for them to duplicate another 10-11 win season
01:45because everybody knows what's coming now.
01:47You know, you can catch people by surprise in year one.
01:49I don't think it happens in year two.
01:51Can the Cowboys stay healthy enough?
01:53Can they keep Dak upright for 17 games to be competitive?
01:57Sure.
01:58Can the Giants not be an embarrassment?
02:00It will be the only question we'll ask about the New York Giants.
02:02But remember, we're here for giggles, right, Jameis?
02:05Thanks.
02:05Beyond that, the Eagles should win the NFC.
02:07He's going to play 3-3 now.
