00:00so as i went through this game joe and i'm talking about to start the week right for philly you

00:08we're really hoping hey we can't lose both games to green bay and detroit but it's tough schedule

00:14wise right you're at green bay on a monday night they desperately need the game that's going to be

00:18a short week against a good lions team but you are home they get the first part of it done now

00:23you know to me who's trying to evaluate this eagles team you'd love to be able to get a win

00:28here but not so sure again we've seen the lions step up before right you know this too we do this

00:35show every week i don't bet philly every week i don't think i've bet the eagles on the side

00:40more than you a hundred percent so as i'm going through this game right you know two and a half

00:45point line but it's in their building i'm trying to figure out you know it's running up to three

00:51occasionally at moments like man i did not expect there to be this much eagles love in the market

00:56and then you look at the injury reports and this is this zombie squad lions team that we've seen in

01:05prior weeks they are so injured once again defensively they will be without dj reed kirby joseph

01:15terry on arnold offensively they add to that oh malcolm rodriguez offensively they add no sam laporta

01:22they have penny sewell on the injury report he's gonna play we think but that means penny sewell's

01:29not a hundred percent listen i you know six score.com we're gonna talk to doc later i think i can i can at

01:37least tell you this the biggest sick edge the biggest gap in health is this game eagles to lions

01:43so philadelphia at home in a spot where offensively they need to meet the moment and play a banged up

01:51defense and defensively lisi flashed i think for the first time all year wire to wire excellence

01:59i'm very interested in the eagles i did lay the two and a half in this game you know this right you know

02:06as a dolphin fan this is a team who adds jalen phillips whose issue was singular staying healthy

02:16that's a great football player on full display against the packers we know the secondary has guys

02:22that front looks fierce i'm back in philadelphia at minus two and a half i think it's the right spot

02:28here and the right number for the birds yeah i i just think that you know golf's immobility

02:34today tonight absolutely is gonna shine through they're gonna need walks out of this game at a

02:40you know we've seen that happen with lane johnson yep penny sewell let me just say this again

02:44penny sewell has been you don't have to believe it's bible on pro football focus by far not close

02:53the best player in football yeah in and that's why they can run the football i mean they have to

02:59contain gibbs tonight i mean the bottom line is you take away gibbs out of the receiving game and

03:04on on the edge right and force them to run between the tackles they have a very good shot

03:09to win this game i i just like the front seven going up against golf in this type of matchup

03:15playing outside yes he was able to get it done against the ravens and and perform well against the

03:21chiefs but for me this is a different animal it's going to be cold it's going to be blustery and still

03:27i want to see this i want to see jared gov step up in that environment if detroit gets this win be

03:34very impressed number one and it might change my assessment but i just the game is one in the

03:39trenches in this matchup and that's where the eagles have a significant advantage

03:43you
