00:00and while the Washington Commanders try to get Terry McLaurin back they sit at plus 220 which

00:05is as short odds as they've had to win this division in how long I don't even know Adam

00:09I'm gonna guess 15 years plus 220 Philly minus 140 Dallas has fallen back to plus 550 Giants

00:17in sort of a transition rebuild kind of year whatever you want there um you know the the

00:23Eagles you know on paper are are the best team in that division and and they should be Washington

00:29gave them a run for their money and were a big surprise last year do you think that the Eagles

00:34can pull off a repeat for the division this year Adam well look can they do they have the talent

00:40of course that being said I I think that anytime we have this conversation specifically about the

00:46NFC East we have to bring up the fact that it's been more than two decades since there has been

00:51a repeat winner I mean there there's not been a repeat champ in this division since George W Bush

00:56was in office and so I I do think that just I'm I'm gonna feed into the narrative that you know

01:02there's going to be some level of uh regression on the part of the Eagles doesn't mean they're

01:08gonna be bad doesn't mean they're gonna miss the playoffs doesn't mean they aren't a viable threat

01:12to repeat as Super Bowl champs any of that it's just you know we're talking about you know can

01:17really it's it's not Dallas right it's certainly not the Giants and so this is two teams that

01:22ultimately we're talking about you know last year it felt like we were talking about the Eagles or

01:28the Cowboys and now it feels like we're talking about the Eagles or the Commanders off of what

01:33Washington did last year when it wildly overachieved and Jayden Daniels went nuclear and McLaurin was as

01:38good as he was the question and it's the biggest question as you alluded to what is the future of Terry

01:44McLaurin now if McLaurin is not back in Washington then of course of course this is so obviously the

01:54Eagles division to lose and I I don't know how you could even consider investing in anyone else

01:59if he's back if the if the Commanders come to their senses and realize that they don't have a chance

02:05to realistically compete and even be a playoff team without Terry McLaurin then I think I like the

02:11plus money I I would make the move I I think they're just as strong a team as they were last

02:16year and I don't really see there being this this wide a gap when it comes to the betting odds to

02:22where I can get north of plus two to one is as you talked about I I would invest in that but this yeah

02:28I'd wait it out I would encourage people to wait it out because this McLaurin domino is a gigantic one
