00:00You know, there's some points of the show, Joe, you got to do things you're uncomfortable with,

00:03right? Like, you don't want to ever put somebody in a bad spot, but when you have to talk about

00:06things and being optimistic and you talk football, Black Friday football, one host is an Eagles fan,

00:12and I looked forward to that football game until I turned it on and watched the absolute butt

00:17kicking that Chicago gave the Philadelphia Eagles. Now, you might say that final score,

00:2124 to 15, like, yeah, it was easy. The Eagles actually had this game tied up and missed an

00:26extra point. The Eagles then intercepted Caleb Williams, looked like they're going to take

00:29full control of this game, only to fumble on a tush push. Jalen Hurts finished with two 32 touchdowns.

00:35Ooh, that was good. No, it wasn't. He wasn't good in that game, and neither were the Philadelphia

00:39Eagles because why, Joe? 47 carries for 281 yards. That's six yards per carry and two touchdowns scored.

00:49If we focus just on the running backs, Joe, they had 40 combined carries between Monungay and Swift

00:56for 255 yards and two touchdowns. Ben Johnson put on a display that goes, you know what? Yeah,

01:06it's windy. Yeah, we're running the football. You're a bend, but don't break defense. We're

01:10going to break you with our running game, and they absolutely did that. Yeah, no, they did,

01:16Donnie. They won in the trenches, which is something that, you know, certainly Eagles backers

01:22didn't see happening, but the writing's kind of been on the wall. When you are that inept and

01:26inconsistent and you are leading the league in three and outs, Donnie, you know what happens to

01:31your defense? Well, they're out on the field way too much, and, you know, that's exactly what

01:37happened here. They just could not get off the field, and Philadelphia could not get any momentum

01:42going. Time of possession, a problem. Moving the chains, a problem. Far too many three and

01:47outs, a problem. And, you know, at what point, Donnie, do we start looking at this Eagles team

01:52and go, this is only, if we don't figure this thing out offensively, this defense is going

01:58to continue to get broken down as the season progresses here.
