When the Eagles are a passing first offense, Philly media is always screaming run the ball. Just listen to the toxic dumpster fire that is Sports Radio 94.1 WIP
They were. That’s why the switched to running after the bye. Now that they focused on running targets went down and everyone is worried about passing. You can’t win in Philly. Ppl don’t realize how tough it is to do and focus on both. Especially when one is working so well.
AJ, Smitty and Geodertt have only played like 4 games together..they have all been injured at different times this season. The only constant has been Hurts and Saquon….so they’ve HAD to rely more on the run game.
As an eagles fan that didn’t happen. He simply didn’t have the personnel. Go watch an All22 film breakdown of why the Steelers lost. It’s on the players
@@MrBaiyifan and coaches have to put the players in favorable positions in order for the players to execute properly. All that single high man coverage when you see your DBs getting TORCHED was ridiculous. Tomlin is a defensive coach as well. So that falls on him.
“The squeaky wheel got the grease” 🔥 analogy and Steve’s take about eating but still giving snacks so you don’t starve parts of your offense was great especially with Phillys elite playmakers. Gotta keep this well oiled machine running!!
@anthonyhayes-d5t fact check one had 1456 and the other has 1066! I love both of those dudes however you decided to hear what you want. I know ball and study ball. Fact check before you correct a dude who does this for real bread. Not clicks homeboi
I always enjoyed watching you (Steve) play football, but you’re just as exciting with your football takes and knowledge. Coming from an Eagles fan I have so much respect for you!!
Wow, James Palmer is the first person I've seen in the media point out that AJ never asked for the ball more. He said the passing game has to improve. Everyone else just took the narrative of him being a diva and ran with it. Props to James for pointing out what actually happened and what was actually said.
I wasn't mad about the lack of passing plays. It was the inefficiency when they did pass. Jalen wasn't seeing the field. Wasn't hitting open receivers downfield, electing to throw it away, dump it off to the flat, or take a sack. And all of these things happened frequently.
The passing did need some improvement going 3 and out or taking those sacks in the backs were kinda not good, Hurts can play better and im glad they fixed that and showed us
The fans will always complain teams dont run the ball enough but they're wrong. There's a reason the NFL's best QBs are the ones that win the super bowl and not the teams with the best running games. The pass is just a more efficient play than the run period. Without getting into the nerdy stats. Saquon averages 6 yards per carry which is UNREAL. But a bad passing offense is over 6.5 yards per attempt and is still better. Its really just that simple. You need to be able to pass the ball well to win in the playoffs.
All those yards do not matter when it come to winning…I’m an Eagles fan and it’s about balance quality and efficiency. Look at Burrow throwing 200 plus per game and not winning. My team is efficient
I said it once i will say it again AJ saying "passing" was the same energy as Beast Mode sayin "I'm hust here so I don't get fined". They forced him to answer and he wasn't going to say everything is fine we couldn't possibly get better because the entire city of Philly and the organization always knows there's something that can be better.
AJ wasn’t forced to say anything. He was frustrated with the passing attack and knew it needed to be better. He put public pressure on the entire offense to improve. And the responded with an outstanding performance
@pdfahie how about the media members that's hold phones in his face and yell at him. And the fact that the NFL fines players for not making themselves available to media.
The Eagles are just a better team than the Steelers. Offense can beat a top 5 defense. Defense is best in the league. This is between Detroit and Philly for the Super Bowl.
You are right everyone would have been complaining that the Eagles don’t run the ball enough.

Steve always makes sense!!! He the one of the few that keeps it💯 no bias
People live one game at a time. Jalen has many 250+ games and Smith and Brown have multiple 1000 yard seasons.
Mike Tomlin was out-coached by Nick Sirriani. That’s what happened. Y’all don’t want to admit it.
As an eagles fan that didn’t happen. He simply didn’t have the personnel. Go watch an All22 film breakdown of why the Steelers lost. It’s on the players
@ 4th QTR 10+ minute drive to end the game. Multiple 3rd down conversions and he wasn’t out-coached? Stop making excuses lol
@@YSBG_ yes! Players have to make plays to get off the field bruh

Our passing was on the decline.....not scoring in first QTR with that impotent passing game was gonna be a problem.....glad we took care of it

He don't know what he is talking about last year Aj and Vs had over 1400 yards a piece Mr Smith check your facts bro

Great podcast 🏈🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅

Steve smith is a eagles hater im good on him straight corn ball
💯 straight facts🦅
The delco Philly accent was spot on
he grew up in Delco! 😂
lol. Can’t do much when you punt the ball back with 10 minutes and by the time the Eagles done with it. It’s 10 minutes already. 😂
3rd coordinator in 3 years and Jalen hurts still leading the eagles to the playoffs 😮💨🤝🏾.
The passing did need some improvement going 3 and out or taking those sacks in the backs were kinda not good, Hurts can play better and im glad they fixed that and showed us
Why can't it just be the Eagles played well... Russell Wilson didn't break. The Steelers were outplayed...
Philly accent spot on. Yep, he grew up here confirmed. Iggles!!!
You are right good bruhda!!!!
God I love Smitty. WRs get hangry lol.
LISTEN WHEN STEVE SMITH TALKS

Ridiculous most teams. Win with a balanced run and pass games not just passing
Ball control is a mitigating factor… I’d prefer 60/40 run/pass, as long as the defense holds up, you control the game flow.
Ever heard of Emmet Smith, Marshall Faulk, and Marshon Lynch? And I'm an Eagles fan! FLY 🦅 FLY!
This is whole bunch of garbage 😂😂😂 wtf are u talkin bout.. championship teams have a very good defense and a very good balanced offense
Just say you have no concept of controlling the game & the clock or overcoming the cold, weather & dominating the trenches.

@pdfahie he was forced because he said nothing the week before and refused to talk to media after the game.
@@yungguns1370 who forced him?
@pdfahie how about the media members that's hold phones in his face and yell at him. And the fact that the NFL fines players for not making themselves available to media.
@@yungguns1370 so you believe that Elliot shore parks intimidated aj brown and demanded he answer his question?
Steve keeps it a BUCK 100% of the time. West up!!
even hurts was complaining about the passing.
That delco accent 🤧🤧
Yo, your Philly accent (Delco dialect) was pretty legit, lol. Forgive me; I was unfamiliar with your game.
The Eagles are just a better team than the Steelers. Offense can beat a top 5 defense. Defense is best in the league. This is between Detroit and Philly for the Super Bowl.
