00:00What do the Eagles have to show you?
00:02They've been to two of the last four Super Bowls,
00:05and they've won a Super Bowl two years ago.
00:07What do they have to show you?
00:08What are you talking about?
00:10You got to show me that Jalen Hurts
00:13has not been covered by the general manager
00:16since the day he came into the league.
00:18Now, I never give people trash for playing on good teams
00:22because you don't put the team together yourself.
00:24You're not LeBron.
00:25In football, Howie Roseman has rivaled Les Snead
00:30as the best general manager in football, hands down.
00:34That's a great debate if you want to have it.
00:36That Eagles team has been stacked the last five years,
00:40whether it be draft picks or smart signings.
00:43And to me, you should have two Super Bowls.
00:47People so kindly or on purpose forget
00:53that Super Bowl run in which they lost to the Chiefs,
00:57Jalen Hurts was top three MVP candidate in the league.
01:01This is before Saquon Barkley.
01:04So what are we talking about here?
01:06Like that season, he was a top four MVP candidate before Saquon,
01:11and he was damn near the Super Bowl MVP
01:14when he lost to the Chiefs.
01:16Had it not been for a phantom holding call
01:19or the turf being messed up or whatever,
01:20he would have been MVP.
01:22So what are we talking about?
01:24Why do we keep doing this to Jalen Hurts
01:25if he's some bum off the street?
01:27He's won the Super Bowl,
01:28nearly was twice a Super Bowl MVP,
01:31and nearly is NFL MVP.
01:33What are we talking about?
01:34Tim, I damn near got drafted in the NBA
01:36if I was 60 more pounds, man.
01:38What are we talking about, coulda?
01:40What am I?
01:41Get out of here with that, man.
01:43He's won the Super Bowl.
01:44Point blank, period.
01:45He has won the Super Bowl,
01:46and I never take that away from him.
01:48I'm not saying that he's a bum.
01:50I'm not going that far.
01:51I would never go that far.
01:53I think Jalen Hurts is a competent quarterback,
01:55but Jalen Hurts doesn't want to use his tools
01:59that best operate for him,
02:01which got him in MVP votes,
02:03which got him to almost a Super Bowl MVP.
02:05The things that got him there,
02:06he pulled away from those things.
02:08He clearly doesn't want to run.
02:10He clearly doesn't want to use his legs
02:12as a weapon anymore.
02:13So how am I supposed to judge him?
02:16He will judge him this year when he wins again.
02:19And I'm not saying they're going to win a Super Bowl,
02:21but they're going to win a division.
02:23I think it's 50-50 between the Cowboys and the Eagles.
02:27I'm not going to say like the Cowboys.
02:28When we're talking common sense, okay.
02:30Yeah, the Cowboys have no chance.
02:32But I still believe the Eagles have the better roster overall,
02:35despite the downgrade with A.J. Brown.
02:37I'm a little bit concerned about the offensive line
02:40because Lane Johnson's on his last leg.
02:42People aren't talking about that.
02:44So I could see them being a wild card team,
02:47but I think they're going to win the division again.
02:48See, I think the Cowboys have a better offensive unit than they do.
02:52I think their offensive line is better,
02:53even though their guards just went out and got surgery.
02:55But the Eagles defense is that much more better
02:59than the Cowboys defense.
03:00Correct.
03:01I think the Eagles defense is...
03:02Yeah, where they're deficient, they pick up on offense.
03:06And where they're deficient on offense, they pick up on defense.
03:08So the two teams mirror each other very well.
03:11And that's why I think this is going to be a very good race
03:14down to the end in the division.
03:16But I do like the Cowboys because I believe in today's NFL,
03:20offense prevails.
03:22I'll give my season picks in a second,
03:24and the Eagles are involved in that.
03:26But I want to pick up on one more thing with you about the Raiders.
03:30History shows the Raiders are doing the right thing.
03:34I'll give you a prime example.
03:36Donovan McNabb.
03:37Donovan McNabb was the second overall pick because...
03:40What's my man?
03:41Whatever.
03:42So Marcus Russell?
03:44No, no, no.
03:45It was Tim Couch was the number one pick.
03:47Couch.
03:48And so McNabb...
03:49Tim played right away.
03:50Yeah.
03:51McNabb sat on the bench for half the season
03:53with Doug Peterson as the quarterback.
03:56You knew you wasn't going to win no games.
03:59So what they did,
04:00they helped themselves get draft capital for the next season,
04:03got better,
04:04and then McNabb came in the second half of the season,
04:07and then the Eagles took off
04:09and haven't missed the playoffs in the next five years of that run.
04:12So history shows that the Raiders are doing the right thing.
