match up this Friday while both teams have Super Bowl aspirations they're coming off last season with different frames of mind the Eagles are hoping to bounce back after a disappointing second half while the Packers made it to the divisional round in Jordan love's first year under Center swagu tell me this who's the bigger threat to win the NFC is it the Packers or the Eagles I'm going Eagles Molly and it's hard because this thing is really like I I think the four teams at the top of the NFC is obviously San Francisco Detroit Green Bay and Philly but I think the addition to saquin Barkley look I I this Eagles team last year was about their mentality they were shot mentally this was not about ability or if they had the guy we know AJ Brown is an elite wide receiver we know he one of the top guys when it's going we know that Devonte Smith the young wide receiver is one of the best W two complimentary guys could be a one on a lot of other organizations you look at the to saquan Barkley that they bring in get back to what made Philly Philly two years ago and I think this team becomes the biggest threat because the talent is littered all over the field as well I get the excitement of geordan love I think Detroit is a bit a team that's built the last but the Philadelphia Eagles to me now there's one caveat Jason Kelce will be sitting on Monday night countdown with me which I think it's huge obviously we know he's a future Hall of Famer Center that's a big time thing you got to replace but I believe that this team last year mentality wise something was missing and if you want to make the case that they shouldn't be because of that I understand it 100% based on how the season ended for them but if they get that part right mixed with Vic fangio coming in and Kell Kelly Moore calling offense having more continuity more of an identity I think Philly is the biggest threat well see you you hit it on the end go ahead Shannon so you tell so what that defense going to do cuz Fletcher cl fetcher cl fet Fletcher CL retired so who they going to stop M you remember last year how bad that defense was and we kept talking about it swag and I keep and I kept telling Eagles fans when they got out to this great start I say never accept anything in the win you wouldn't in a loss you were winning these games but you your check engine light was on and you wouldn't get it fixed until it put you downside the road and then all of a sudden you lose four straight you go into the playoffs you get bounc and boom here we go the thing look Jaylen Herz is going to have to get back he turned the ball over far too many times last year and and maybe he was hurt but you can't go out there and use her as an excuse either sit down or you have to play better you know how this thing goes swagu we both played for an extended period of time and if you hurt and you go out there on the field all they saw was 84 and 96 on your back and they expected you to make plays as if you were 100% healthy and so that is my concern I love the skill position players offensive line is still going to be solid you do lose a key cog in the middle of that uh that offense with Kelsey Moving on but they still got M La you got Landon Dixon you got Lane Johnson so you got pieces and you brought in saquin but my question is defensively because wasn't fangio where was fangio last year was he in Miami where was he at last year yeah yes yes he was Miami how they look defensively how how do they look defensively swagu not don't do that they they bro they were they they lost a lot of guys to injury now don't don't don't Vic fio been really good really good calling defense in his career man he before you go Stephen Ste steephen let me add this point before you go when uh they dropped 70 on the bronos and then the following week they went to Buffalo with everybody healthy big fio call that def hey swagu for the people at home that didn't have cable at the time what did Buffalo do to fangio's defense they maed them but they come on man go ahead yeah go ahead Stephen I gotta go back at Shan he know he dead well he's not dead wrong about that because Buffalo did stomped them the week after they dropped s on Denver that is true okay that is true that that that that happened but but but far be it for me and my nonf footb self to bring this point up but I just think it's appropo there is such a thing correct me if I'm wrong of a potent offense making up to some degree for a poorest defense when you look at Philadelphia Eagles right now okay think about this right here even though Jason Kelce is gone all right and Pro Football Focus had them ranked as the top offensive line in football over the last two years they've only dipped one spot to number two at this particular moment in time they're still expected to have an elite offensive line so we anticipate that Jaylen Herz is going to be protected you still got AJ Brown missed the new $32 million a year man you got Devonte Smith you you you you got Goddard as well okay and then you picked up sequan Barkley and so you got a safety net to dip the ball to when you in trouble as opposed to needing to play hero ball you going to move the chains you're going to sit up there chalk up yardage if not points oh by the way they acquired an offensive coordinator who was formerly in Los Angeles with the Chargers who was in where the year before that Dallas okay that division who had one of the top two most potent offenses in all of football what was his problem they tried to act like oh damn he's scoring too much he's not giving the defense a reprieve when we found out what the real issue was that Mike McCarthy want to call a damn plays himself cuz he thinking about his own job security and making sure that he buffers his stature and his cache to make sure he's gainfully employed for years to come and by the way for the audience that wants to look at me and think that I'm being a cynic about Mike McCarthy I'm not hating on him by any stretch of the imagination but it is notable to point out he did lie to get the job he joked about saying whatever Jerry he thought Jerry Jones wanted to hear to get the head coaching job in Dallas to begin with so who's to say that that should be Beyond him to say what the hell needs to be said so he could get offensive play calling responsibilities away from a dude that was in line to be his successor in the event that he messed up and didn't win okay so all of a sudden Kell Mo's up out of there and he there calling plays and doing the same damn thing he was complaining about Kell Moore doing when Kell Moore was running the offense which was throwing the damn football too much that's exactly what Mike McCarney doing that's why swag got that smile on his face cuz he know I'm telling the truth I'm telling the truth so now we got he cannot help himself now we got this we got Kelly Moore we got saquan Barkley added to a talented Squad and oh by the way we know serani no longer has the excuse of losing both coordinators and really not being prepared for a season he got that going on I'm saying the combination of all of that along with the fact that we're just a a a a a season ago removed from the Philadelphia Eagles nearly winning the Super Bowl championship we're pretty much the same Squad Shannon I'm sorry I'm I know Jordan love is that dude and I know the greay got some weapons but I got a roll with Philadelphia with this question that why I'm mad at you sh why I'm mad at you I'm mad mad cuz you remember what happened in the Super Bowl in the Super Bowl what happened you remember Patrick Mahomes in the he have in the second half how many of those possessions ended in touchdowns how many of those possession points that's the defense you're talking about all up okay of them Shay Shay don't do that that was a untimely that was a that was a that was an interception thrown that was a that was a pass in the fingers called let's let's go through the whole thing if we gonna go through the whole thing let's let's let's what you swag the going with the the got some water got some water that's it just so you got you pick that up so he got he got water in a mug really he got water in a mug really really gu what that's what he said hello Las Vegas Raiders fans today I have news that could shake the foundations of our team and generate a lot of controversy could Devonte Adams our Undisputed star be traded if the Raiders don't get off to a good start this season it's a question that many in the NFL are asking themselves and here we give you all the details as we approach the start of the 202 before season the name Devonte Adams continues to resonate loudly not only because of his talent on the field but because of the rumors surrounding him according to a recent report by Jeff how of the athletic some in the league are speculating about the possibility that the Raiders will consider trading Adams if the team doesn't get off to a good start Yes you heard right even though Adams will open the season with us his future in Las Vegas is not entirely assured the reason behind these rumors has a lot to do with the current situation of the team we're in the early stages of a rebuild after yet another regime change and expectations for the Raiders aren't exactly high around the league against this backdrop some are wondering if it wouldn't be wiser for management to take advantage of Adam's value in the trade market especially if things don't go well at the start of the season now make no mistake the Raiders front office has been clear in it stance thus far just over a month ago Tom telesco our general manager made it clear that they had no intention of trading atams even in July agents for Adams a three-time all proo called these rumors baseless speculation and statements to ESPN's Adam schfer however as we know in the NFL World things can change quickly and rumors never stop circulating so why is this still being talked about the reality is that while Adams remains one of the best receivers in the league his salary is a major factor to consider starting in 2025 his cap hit will reach $ 44.1 million per season the highest among all receivers keeping him on the team could become a luxury the Raiders can't afford if we're not in a clear playoff position also while the Raiders performance under Antonio Pierce in the second half of last season was encouraging the decision to keep Gardner muu as the starting quarterback seems to contradict the idea that we're ready for serious playoff assault if the team gets off to a slow start a trade for Adams before the November 5th trade deadline could be a more than logical option to maximize our draft assets and who knows find that franchise quarterback we so desperately need the question that remains in the air is are the readers willing to give up their biggest star to gamble on an uncertain future and you fans what do you think should the readers keep Adams at all costs or would it be smarter to take advantage of his value now while they still can leave your comments below give the video a thumbs up if you're as
