PHLY Philadelphia Eagles Podcast (ALLCITY Network, PHLY Sports)

Our baby boy is back from his São Paolo sojourn, armed with thoughts on what he saw in person when the Eagles beat the Packers 34-29. Zack Baun had an impressive debut, with 15 tackles and two sacks, as Vic Fangio appears to not have disastrous linebackers. And how about Saquon Barkley! On the other hand, Jalen Hurts’ decision-making left a lot to be desired. How much of a concern is that?

Zach Berman and Bo Wulf run through their thoughts after digesting the season-opening win.

The defensive line needs to dominate on Sunday for the Philadelphia Eagles to come out on top, as Jalen Carter, Nolan Smith, Brandon Graham, Josh Sweat and Milton Williams need to show out against Patrick Mahomes and an offensive line with some weaknesses. Vinny Curry is on the scene at Radio Row to explain why and how.

Join Vinny Curry, Fran Duffy and Bo Wulf with an array of guests as Super Bowl week rolls on.

Join the PHLY Eagles show as they check in with Zach Berman checking in from the Eagles practice facility after head coach Nick Sirianni’s press conference to recap that. Super Bowl champ, Vinny Curry joins the show to talk about coming off the “mini-bye” and facing a Rams offense. A defensive Rookie of the year main stage event this weekend between Eagles CB Quinyon Mitchell & Rams DE Jared Verse. An updated look at the NFL’s MVP race and can Saquon Barkley be the first RB in 12 years to win one, since Adrian Peterson? Zach & Bo admitted to what they were wrong about with the Eagles this season, so Jamie & Rich will keep that going today. The Eagles & Detroit Lions look like the crown jewels of the NFC & we’ll examine their remaining schedules to see how viable the #1 seed could be.

We’re one week away from the draft, and it’s time to focus on two contradictory positions from a Howie Roseman preference perspective. His kink, defensive tackle, seems like a long shot after back-to-back first-round picks spent on Jalen Carter and Jordan Davis. But could Texas’ Byron Murphy II tempt him? Then his ick, linebacker, remains a need despite the offseason addition of Devin White. What does Vic Fangio want there? 

Brian Baldinger of NFL Network joins Zach Berman and Bo Wulf for his pre-draft thoughts and the show goes on.

Perhaps the most beloved player in Eagles history Brian Dawkins joins the show to discuss the release of his very first trading card and his thoughts from afar on Jalen Hurts, Jason Kelce and the 2023 Eagles.

Bo Wulf and Rich Hofmann spend some time with B-Dawk and figure out the biggest questions ahead of the second half of the season.

Pack your bags, Bermanoid, it’s time to fly to Indianapolis and boy will your arms be tired. Is Howie Roseman going to spill the beans on his intentions with Zack Baun, Mekhi Becton, Milton Williams and Josh Sweat? Who is going to be the Eagles’ new quarterbacks coach? What’s Howie’s forehead looking like these days?

Join Zach and Bo as Combine week gets started in Philadelphia before the Berm man sets sail.

Breaking Saquon Barkley news! Plus, we’re talking depth on the show today, running through the roster to identify the important backups at every position. If Jalen Hurts goes down, is Kenny Pickett good enough? What about Jalen Carter? Dallas Goedert?

Join Zach Berman and Bo Wulf to prepare for the worst.

It’s extremely rare that Bo Wulf or Zach Berman is ever wrong about anything, but it does happen occasionally. Today is a day to reflect on that, from Zack Baun’s short shelf-life at linebacker to Bryce Huff’s breakout season and much more, we’re here to come clean. Don’t worry, we’ll pay ourselves on the back plenty too, from Tyler Steen’s status as right guard to Jahan Datson’s impact and more.

Join the guys for a fun look in the mirror.

Another unimpressive performance from the Eagles, but A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith both scored touchdowns in their return from injury. Jalen Hurts looked sharper, but Darius Slay, Jordan Mailata and Isaiah Rodgers all left with injury. Ex-Eagle Rodney McLeod scored a touchdown on a Myles Garrett blocked field goal and the game again came down to the wire.

Join Super Bowl champion Vinny Curry, Fran Duffy, Jamie Lynch and Bo Wulf for a recap of the game and dissection of your thoughts in the chat.

Jordan Mailata, Landon Dickerson, Cam Jurgens, Mekhi Becton and Lane Johnson were monsters in Sunday’s win over the Rams, paving the way for Saquon Barkley’s insane 300 yards from scrimmage. With the Baltimore Ravens on deck, Fran Duffy’s in studio to explain how the Eagles have cobbled together arguably the best offensive line in the league even without Jason Kelce.

Join Fran, Zach Berman and Bo Wulf as they discuss the state of the Eagles, what the plan might be to replace Brandon Graham and a whole lot more.

We’re back from the league meetings and ready to get to ball, with the big question dangling from the owners meetings being the apparent looming departure of Dallas Goedert. Are Howie Roseman, Jeffrey Lurie and Nick Sirianni really willing to cast aside their No. 3 option in the passing game without an obvious replacement? And who are the Tush Push enemies?

It’s a full cast, with Jamie Lynch and Devon Given in studio with Bo Wulf before Zach Berman joins the fray.

Fletcher Cox is in studio for his weekly appearance to take us behind the scenes of the whirlwind week that allowed him to play on Sunday despite not practicing all week. He also dishes on the importance of Dom DiSandro before taking a trip down memory lane to remember some defensive tackles teammates. 

Brian Baldinger also joins the show for his schematic breakdown of the defensive failures against the Niners ahead of the Sunday night rematch with Dak Prescott and the Dallas Cowboys. Zach Berman and Bo Wulf react to the news from the coordinators, and much more.

It’s time for one of our favorite events of the year, the Owl You Know Draft in which we narrow down the most likely NFL Draft picks for Howie Roseman and the Eagles, from early-round players like Walter Nolen, Malaki Starks, Donovan Ezeiruaku, Mason Taylor, Nic Scourton to mid-round players like T.J. Sanders, JT Tuimoloau and Charles Grant to late-round options like Jaylin Smith, LeQuint Allen, Kobe King and Rayuan Lane III. Zach Berman tries to defend his title while Bo Wulf attempts to regain the crown and Fran Duffy makes his debut.

Storylines abound ahead of tonight’s primetime matchup, with Zach Ertz, Brian Johnson, Olamide Zaccheaus and Darryl Tapp returning to the LINC. Add in the Jahan Dotson revenge game and you have plenty of sprinkles to spread over the ice cream of a matchup between the two best teams in the NFC East.

Zach Berman and Bo Wulf put the finishing touches on their thoughts for the game tonight. You don’t have anything better to do.

NEW ORLEANS — Jeffrey Lurie loves him some wee little leprechaun basketball players and he might just want a dome in Philadelphia. Howie Roseman had his own funny stuff to say. Vinny Curry was a star and everything else was kind of a cluster! But as A.J. Brown, Vic Fangio, DeVonta Smith and the rest of the Eagles get ready for the big game, we’re here to unpack it all.

Join Zach Berman, Fran Duffy and Bo Wulf for a punchy late-night pod to recap media night.

A little over two months out from training camp, it’s time to take stock of the roster battles to come during training camp. The Eagles added two wide receivers on day three of the draft to go along with a pair of veteran free-agent additions. Who from that group, along with Britain Covey, will join DeVonta Smith and A.J. Brown on the roster? How will the depth at cornerback shake out with players like Josh Jobe, Eli Ricks and Isaiah Rodgers?

Zach Berman and Bo Wulf run through their early roster speculation to kick off another week of shows.

Join Fran and Bo Wulf for their weekly game preview before Zach Berman joins to provide the latest news from NovaCare. And then … it’s Swooper time!

What’s the confidence level in Jalen Hurts right now? Jordan Mailata and the offensive line? What about Nakobe Dean, Darius Slay, C.J. Gardner-Johnson, Jordan Davis and the mostly hapless Eagles defense? Nick Sirianni?

Maybe it was a little glossed over in the madness of the NFL Draft, but the Eagles locked up arguably their best player in A.J. Brown for the foreseeable future. Brown signed his contract Tuesday and spoke about why he hopes to retire as an Eagle. 

Plus, it’s easy to harangue draft picks without offering solutions. Bo Wulf and Zach Berman present their alternate-universe Eagles draft hauls, at least one of which begins with a different cornerback than Quinyon Mitchell.

We know finding an eventual Lane Johnson replacement is on the Eagles’ to-do list, but they also don’t have a right guard starter set in stone for 2024. Could that be a surprise use of a first-round pick? What about the middle- and late-round options for Jeff Stoutland?

Brandon Thorn is our favorite offensive line expert and he joins Bo and Zach to discuss the players you need to know.

Lane Johnson might play this week after all (thanks for the hot tip, Brian Baldinger!), but what’s the latest on DeVonta Smith, Sydney Brown, Jalen Carter and Darius Slay? It’s a big week for the Eagles as they prepare for Tyreek Hill, Tua Tagovailoa and the high-octane Miami Dolphins, who also happen to have the DC the Eagles would have were it not for Jonathan Gannon’s weasely departure.

Bo Wulf and Zach Berman unpack all the latest news and run through another edition of their weekly roster draft.

While we play the waiting game for a resolution from the (actual) meeting between Nick Sirianni and Jeffrey Lurie, it’s time to speculate about some changes that are likely to come if Sirianni stays. Surely, a new defensive coordinator will be on the way at the very least.

Zach Berman and Bo Wulf run through some of the options and deal with the hangover from yesterday’s role playing exercise.

It’s a day of asking questions after the Eagles’ 28-3 dismantling of the New York Giants. Is Jalen Hurts secondary to the offense now? How much can they ride Saquon Barkley? Is the Georgia Bulldog contingent turning the corner? Is Ben VanSumeren a real part of the offense now? Will this finally be the nudity episode?

Zach Berman and Bo Wulf recap and dissect the Eagles’ fourth win of the season. Don’t you dare miss it.

Acquiring an all-pro player for peanuts is just another day at the office for Howie Roseman, who continues to be aggressive in building perhaps the league’s most talented roster. What’s next for the Eagles as they now sit as one of the only two 6-1 teams in the NFL?

Brian Baldinger joins the show for his weekly insight, then Zach Berman and Bo Wulf look back through Roseman’s in-season trade history and react to what they heard from Brian Johnson, Sean Desai and Michael Clay.

Finally, it feels like real football now that the Eagles have put on the pads for the first time in training camp. The fifth practice of the summer featured an emphasis on the running game, with Jalen Hurts and Saquon Barkley combining for a touchdown at the end of a practice that was otherwise dominated by the defensive line. We also saw offensive line-defensive line one-on-ones for the first time, with one offensive lineman in particular having a rough session while a down-roster defensive tackle stood out in a big way.

Zach Berman and Bo Wulf have all the notes you need following a busy day of action at the NovaCare Complex.

We’re back with a roundup of the NFL Draft prospects on defense who are outliers in comparison to the recent history of productive players in the NFL. Shemar Stewart is an elite athlete, but his lack of production is difficult to believe. What kind of athlete is James Pearce Jr.? Do Mason Graham’s small arms matter? Same question for Will Johnson. And how insane of an athlete is Nick Emmanwori? Fran Duffy discusses it all as the draft approaches ever sooner.

We move onto safety in our NFL Draft position preview series as two realistic possibilities for the Eagles in round 1 loom with Georgia’s Malaki Starks and South Carolina’s Nick Emmanwori could be part of the replacement plan for C.J. Gardner-Johnson alongside Reed Blankenship and Sydney Brown. But this is a deep class of safeties, with intriguing options later in the draft like Xavier Watts, Jonas Sanker, Kevin Winston Jr., Andrew Mukuba, Jaylen Reed and Billy Bowman Jr. Shawn Syed of Sumer Sports joins Fran Duffy and Bo Wulf to decipher who seems most like a Vic Fangio guy.

Eagles center Jason Kelce announced his retirement Monday in front of a packed auditorium at the Eagles’ complex, closing the book on a storybook 13-year career.

Zach Berman and Bo Wulf have been there for the entirety of that career and take the time to reflect on Kelce’s speech, his legacy and what this means for the roster moving forward.

It’s Book Report day with the Philadelphia Eagles on bye. From Jeffrey Lurie, Howie Roseman, Andy Reid and Doug Pederson to Brian Dawkins, Donovan McNabb, LeSean McCoy and Nick Foles, all of the key players in recent Eagles history are covered in Zach Berman’s newest book. Fletcher Cox! Carson Wentz! Jalen Hurts! Jason Kelce!

Join Zach and Bo Wulf for a wide-ranging discussion of the writing process that went into the book, available wherever books are sold.

The Eagles have a long history of undrafted rookies making the roster and going on to become key players. This year’s class is smaller than usual for Howie Roseman, but there are still several players worth knowing ahead of minicamp and eventually training camp. 

Zach Berman and Bo Wulf go deep on the new guys for the sickos, plus a review of the three draft games.

What was once considered a “layup” game, PHLY Eagles show examines if Bryce Young’s improved play makes the Panthers a potential “trap” game. Zach Berman joins from the Novacare Center after head coach Nick Sirianni’s press conference as the Eagles advance without TE Dallas Goedert. Super Bowl champ Vinny Curry joins to talk about look ahead games & what the Birds can do to prevent that. Plus, GM Howie Roseman has been on an absolute NFL Draft heater lately. Is this the best Eagles defense since Buddy Ryan’s back in the day?

From Brazil to Landover, the Eagles’ 2024 schedule is taking them to some of the most beautiful places in the world and some of the most decrepit. How does the slate line up for a team with Super Bowl hopes? Does an early-season bye qualify as a disappointment? Are there any pitfalls? 

Zach Berman and Bo Wulf react to the unveiling of the Eagles’ 2024 schedule, make their early picks and settle into the new reality of what the next eight months promise for Jalen Hurts, Jalen Carter, Dylan McMahon and co.

It’s the Day After pod, as we bask in the glow of the Eagles’ best performance of the season. Jalen Hurts looks spry, A.J. Brown did what A.J. Brown does, DeVonta Smith made big plays and the backup offensive linemen all did their jobs while Lane Johnson played at his usual level. On defense, Vic Fangio is getting the most out of everyone, including Isaiah Rodgers, who stepped in for Darius Slay, and Cooper DeJean, who looks precocious in his ability to read the game.

Fran Duffy joins Bo Wulf to explain what the tape has shown about the Eagles’ 37-17 smacking of the Bengals.

Time to put up for the Philadelphia Eagles passing game. Against the best defense they play all season, can DeVonta Smith, A.J. Brown and Jalen Hurts get back on track throwing the ball behind Lane Johnson and Jordan Mailata? Or will it be the Saquon Barkley show again? Meanwhile, Jalen Carter, Zack Baun, Quinyon Mitchell and C.J. Gardner-Johnson should be able to shut down Russell Wilson and the Steelers offense without George Pickens. Will that be enough?

Fran Duffy breaks down everything you need to know about the matchup with Rich Hofmann before Zach Berman joins live from the LINC.

Vic Fangio’s Philadelphia Eagles defense is arguably the best in the league and he’s found a way for the team’s pass rush to be effective despite the league’s lowest blitz rate and the loss of some key players. But one of those players might be on the way back, as the Eagles activated Bryce Huff’s practice window. Would his return help the likes of Nolan Smith, Josh Sweat and Jalyx Hunt to stay fresh?

Our PHLY Eagles crew discusses that and a whole lot more, as Super Bowl champion Vinny Curry joins the show and Zach Berman updates the latest from the Eagles’ facility.

OK, not really. But Jalen Hurts and Nick Sirianni continue to lead a team that is finding ways to win against the other best teams in the league. How do they keep doing it? Should Sirianni get more credit for the Eagles' success? Now, the Eagles turn their attention to the perpetually whiny San Francisco 49ers. What's the status for Lane Johnson, Dallas Goedert and Fletcher Cox?

Zach Berman and Bo Wulf give their day-after perspective on the win over the Bills. What do they feel differently about with the benefit of sleep? Who didn’t get enough attention for their performance Sunday? And how on Earth is this team still overlooked?

We’re in Week 2 of free agency and the Eagles have filled their most pressing needs. But there’s always work left to do, like maybe replacing Avonte Maddox or adding another wide receiver on offense.

Zach Berman and Bo Wulf go back and forth with the moves they’d still like to see the Eagles make and discuss what they heard from Kenny Pickett and DeVante Parker.

Cam Ward, Shedeur Sanders and Justin Hunter? Yeah, right. Who are the realistic players for the Eagles to focus on come late April? Walter Nolen, James Pearce Jr., Donovan Ezeiruaku, Luther Burden, Aireontae Ersery & Malaki Starks, come on down! Plus, the Eagles sign Kendall Lamm to compete as a swing tackle and Christian Elliss gets the money he deserves. Join Fran Duffy and Bo Wulf for another episode of the PHLY Eagles Show.

The Eagles rallied from a 17-7 deficit and a season high in three-and-outs to come from behind to take a 21-17 lead late in the fourth quarter. Then, after a disappointing offensive possession, Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs got the ball down four points with over two minutes left. Do we give them credit for Marquez Valdez-Scantling's drop or call them the worst 9-1 team in the league? Be careful what you say, Nick Sirianni might be listening.Bo Wulf and Jamie Lynch recap and relive the game, from Jalen Carter’s attempted spike interception to Kevin Byard and Bradley Roby forcing red zone turnovers. Zach Berman joins the show live from the stadium for the locker room reaction.

A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith and Lane Johnson are coming back. But Jalen Hurts is turning the ball over and Kellen Moore seems to have forgot how to use motion. What is Nick Sirianni’s influence? Does Jahan Dotson exist? With the Philadelphia Eagles on their bye, it’s time to figure out how to fix the offense.

Join Fran Duffy, Zach Berman & Bo Wulf for some film review and, if you’re lucky, nudity.

There’s a long time between now and Week 1, but after a whirlwind of movement for every team in the division but the Cowboys, we might as well take stock of how the division looks different than it did a week ago. Brian Burns in, Saquon Barkley out for the Giants. Nick Allegretti in, Marcus Mariota also in for the loaded Washington Commanders. Eric Kendricks in, and that’s entirely it for the Dallas Cowboys. 

Zach Berman and Bo Wulf take a spin around the division and prepare for the afternoon press conferences with Saquon Barkley, Bryce Huff and Zack Baun.

As we spin our Eagles attention from Jason Kelce to the coming new league year, we know Howie Roseman is looking to make a significant splash. Maybe the most likely big fish is Chiefs CB L’Jarius Sneed, who figures to be franchise-tagged and potentially traded. Would that make sense for an Eagles team with two second-round picks?

Zach Berman and Bo Wulf dive into Bo’s list of the top 100 FA targets for the Eagles and pave the way for this year’s Quacketology.

Fran Duffy posted his final 32-team, 7-round mock draft on ALLPHLY.com, which includes a ton of information and speculation about team tendencies. Why did the Browns eschew Andrew Berry’s tendencies? Which team went in early on Ashton Jeanty? Where did the likes of Mykel Williams, Tyler Warren, Tetairoa McMillan, Jihaad Campbell and Will Johnson go? And who was on the board for the Eagles at No. 32? Fran Duffy explains it all.

We’re opening up the mailbag, with questions that include whether the Eagles should be in the tight end market, which second-year and third-year player is set for a breakout, and more on Nick Sirianni’s future. Plus, there are coaching staff updates.

Now that we know how the Eagles’ 2024 schedule plots out, it’s time to go through the games and draft which outcomes we’re most confident in. Is the home game vs. Carolina the easiest patsy? How daunting is the trip to Baltimore? How much of a toss-up is the Browns game, dependent on whether Michael Dunn is starting? 

Zach Berman and Bo Wulf keep the focus tight on the schedule and keep things rolling. Jalen Hurts, A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith and Lane Johnson are all popular players!

In honor of that most hallowed of holidays, it’s time to celebrate Zach Berman’s favorite day of the year with a Philadelphia Eagles twist. Would you vote for Jason Kelce as POTUS? Which Eagle would you most want to have a beer with and why is Jordan Mailata? Joe Banner vs. Don Smolenski, who wins in a cage match?

With Zach observing the holiday, Rich Hofmann and Bo Wulf take care of the proceedings.

Through two games, the Saints offense has been the best in football thanks to a change in scheme under Klint Kubiak. Fran Duffy explains what has worked for Derek Carr and co., and the challenges it will present to an Eagles defense that has been one of the worst in football through two games. Is there any hope for Vic Fangio?

That, plus much more as Fran breaks down the Saints defense and Zach Berman joins the show from the NovaCare Complex with the latest news and notes. Then, Fran, Zach and Bo Wulf close the show with another edition of Swooper Soarcasting.

The Eagles started the week off with some morning news Monday morning, announcing they had agreed to terms on what amounts to a four-year deal with wide receiver DeVonta Smith that will eventually pay him $25 million per year. That’s the same per-year average as Smith’s teammate A.J. Brown.

Zach Berman and Bo Wulf unpack the news before also doing their best to approximate the Eagles’ draft board ahead of next week’s NFL Draft.

One step away from putting the finishing touches on the greatest individual season in franchise history, Saquon Barkley is right where he belongs, just like so many other members of this 2024 team. From Nick Sirianni and Zack Baun to Jalen Carter and Nolan Smith to bit players like Oren Burks, Reed Blankenship and Dallas Goedert. Now, the stage is set for a Super Bowl rematch with the Kansas City Chiefs. Will Brandon Graham join them just months after suffering a torn triceps?

Zach Berman and Bo Wulf discuss some of the important topics from an NFC Championship Game blowout and spin things ahead to the Super Bowl rematch.

With players like Taliese Fuaga, Tyler Guyton, Amarius Mims and J.C. Latham possibly available for the Eagles at No. 22, can they afford not to take advantage of a loaded offensive tackle class? Or should they focus instead on a player who has a more immediate path to playing time? 

Fran Duffy of [PhiladelphiaEagles.](http://PhiladelphiaEagles.com)com and the Eagle Eye in the Sky podcast joins Zach and Bo for an overview of the tackle position ahead of this month’s NFL Draft.

Fran Duffy and Rich Hoffman play a little game of 'Fact or Fiction' to discuss the state of this Eagles team going into the Bye Week. What's real and what isn't? What can be corrected and what can't? The guys discuss during the team's week off.

At the midway point of the season, it’s time to reassess the expectations for an Eagles rookie class that was the talk of the summer. How good can Jalen Carter be? Will Nolan Smith become a part of the defense? Is Tanner McKee the long-term Hurts backup?

Zach Berman and Bo Wulf go player by player through the rookies to decide how much their opinions have changed over the past two months.

Howie Roseman has been running the Eagles long enough that we should be able to know what he’s thinking about the state of the team. Will this be an offseason in which he makes a big splash? Will he try to keep things mostly together and patch holes? And what’s Jeffrey Lurie’s role in all of this?

Les Bowen joins Zach Berman and Bo Wulf to discuss what might lie ahead, plus reflections on Andy Reid, Nick Sirianni and the state of the industry.

The Eagles need a win in the worst way as they prepare to conclude the most difficult six-game stretch in league history with a trip to play the Seattle Seahawks on Monday night. For an Eagles secondary that has struggled lately and sports the worst third-down rate in the league, the prospect of playing DK Metcalf, Tyler Lockett and Jaxon Smith-Njigba is daunting. 

Zach Berman and Bo Wulf dip their toes into the matchup and recap what the coordinators said this week in an early-morning episode that promises to have Zach in rare form.

Against the Dallas Cowboys and with so much on the line, the Eagles defense was overrun in the first half while Jalen Hurts, A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith all fumbled the ball away. A Fletcher Cox forced fumble that led to a Jalen Carter touchdown was the only highlight on an otherwise dour night as the Eagles lost a second straight game for the first time with Hurts as the quarterback since 2021.

Jamie Lynch and Bo Wulf react to the blowout loss before Zach Berman joins the show live from Arlington. With four games left, the Eagles still control their NFC East standing but no longer do so within the conference. Is there still hope?

Class is in session as the professor Deniz Selman joins the show for his thoughts on the proposed rule changes, including the Packers’ continued loser energy surrounding the Tush Push. And as we close out Brandon Graham week, what’s in store for the Cackler’s future? Join Zach Berman and Bo Wulf for all the latest news and thoughts on the Eagles.

As his team wades through a three-game losing streak, Nick Sirianni once again began the week with a defensive press conference, pointing again and again to the success of the 2022 Eagles team and its offense. But it’s not 2022 anymore. What’s behind that posture from Sirianni and what positive signs are there the team can turn things around? 

Zach Berman and Bo Wulf are joined by Devon Givens to sift through the likelihood the Eagles can turn things around in a meaningful way. Is Matt Patricia’s hiring a call for help?

The Philadelphia Eagles took care of one of their recent undrafted success stories in securing Reed Blankenship’s status on the roster through 2025.

It’s a football-guy Tuesday, with Fran Duffy in studio to break down the Eagles’ 28-3 win over the New York Giants. Fran explains why this might have been the best game of the season for the defense, from Nakobe Dean, Bryce Huff, Jalen Carter, Josh Sweat and co. ramping up the pass rush and the back seven passing things off. And why does Joe Banner hate Quinyon Mitchell? Meanwhile, on offense, Jalen Hurts … probably played his worst game of the season.

Join Fran, Zach Berman and Bo Wulf for a thorough review of the game and how the Eagles should prepare for for the Cincinnati Bengals.

Les Bowen joins the show for a trip down memory lane and an exploration of alternate timelines. What happens to the Eagles if they trade for Russell Wilson and sign Allen Robinson instead of keeping Jalen Hurts and trading for A.J. Brown? What if Carson Wentz never tears his ACL in 2017? What if Jeffrey Lurie gets his wish and hires Ben McAdoo in 2016? What if Andy Reid never hires Juan Castillo as defensive coordinator? 

Zach Berman and Bo Wulf join Les for a fun Sliding Doors exercise of recent Eagles history.

There’s still a whole lot of football left for the 8-1 Eagles. Can A.J. Brown keep up his record-setting pace? Is Jalen Hurts bound to regress? Can DeVonta Smith pick up his production? What of D’Andre Swift?

Bo and Zach take turns drafting their expectations for whose stock on offense will rise and fall over the second half of the season. One of the two goes on the record as being decidedly anti-human.

The Eagles can clinch the NFC East and no worse than the No. 2 seed with a win, so our eyes are on Kenny Pickett taking over for the injured Jalen Hurts, Saquon Barkley in his quest for 2,000 rushing yards, A.J. Brown looks to make more big plays and the offensive line tries to stifle Micah Parsons. On the other side of the ball, Jalen Carter and C.J. Gardner-Johnson try to bounce back from an emotional game, Bryce Huff returns to the fold, Quinyon Mitchell continues his case for defensive Rookie of the Year and Zack Baun holds down the fort at linebacker with Nakobe Dean out.

Join Fran Duffy and Jamie Lynch as they preview the action before Zach Berman checks in from the LINC with the latest.

E.J. Smith of The Inquirer joins the PHLY Eagles Podcast to give his definitive take on a host of topics the guys disagree on. Would you rather have Jalen Hurts or C.J. Stroud?

Join Zach Berman and Bo Wulf as they learn from the wise Mr. Smith.

After the Dallas Cowboys blew out the Eagles for their second lopsided loss in two games, Nick Sirianni’s team is reeling despite its 10-3 record. Things on offense lack creativity, the magic turnover avoidance Sirianni espoused has disappeared with fumbles from Jalen Hurts, DeVonta Smith and A.J. Brown, and the defense can’t stop a running faucet. One year after going to the Super Bowl, how bad could things get? 

Zach Berman, fresh off the runway like the stone-cold hustler he is, and Bo Wulf recap another dispiriting loss and spend some time in the waters of “worst-case scenario.”

Mercifully, word finally spread over the weekend that the team is moving on from Sean Desai and Matt Patricia as the least scary two-headed monster in history. Duh! But … we still don’t have official word that Nick Sirianni is set to remain the team’s head coach. Is his job dependent on the staff he can put together? Is Jeffrey Lurie still deliberating?

The Eagles have a litany of decisions to make this offseason, from pending free agents like Zach Baun and Milton Williams to potential veteran cap casualties like Dallas Goedert and Darius Slay.
