PHLY Philadelphia Eagles Podcast

If last year was Saquon Barkley’s year, who will be the Eagles’ main character in 2025? Jalen Hurts can silence those who doubt he’s an elite quarterback, A.J. Brown could put the stamp on being the league’s best WR, Jalen Carter could compete for defensive player of the year, Zack Baun could take a step forward from his insane 2024, Willie Lampkin could be the league’s first All-Pro fullback/offensive lineman. EJ Smith and Bo Wulf put their predictions on the line about how this year will play out.

No more worrying about Micah Parsons twice a season with the Eagles watching from afar to see Jerry Jones bungle away one of the best defensive players in the league as he traded Parsons to the Green Bay Packers in exchange for Kenny Clark and draft picks. What does this mean for Lane Johnson, Jalen Hurts and A.J. Brown's odds of repeating?

It’s the annual Spread Your Wins and Fly draft as we’re analyzing the win total over-unders for every team around the NFL, as the league tries to overtake Jalen Hurts, A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, Saquon Barkley, Darius Cooper and Jalen Carter. Join Fran Duffy, EJ Smith and Bo Wulf for all the action.

Jihaad Campbell figures to complement Zack Baun well in Vic Fangio's defense, but how exactly will he be deployed? From covering tight ends to changing the defensive front to affecting coverage in the middle of the field, Campbell can do a lot. A mysterious Vic Fangio appreciator breaks it all down in depth.

Mina Kimes and Fran Duffy agree, Willie Lampkin is awesome. The Eagles claimed the undersized OL to add to Jeff Stoutland University and we were all over it. Jason Kelce? Old news. Willie Lampkin is the truth.

We turn our attention to the main characters of this Eagles season as Jalen Hurts, Saquon Barkley, A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, Dallas Goedert and Darius Cooper prepare to lead the offense while Jalen Carter, Zack Baun, Quinyon Mitchell, Cooper DeJean and Brandon Johnson (OK, fine, Nolan Smith) lead the way on defense. Will Saquon top 1,400 rushing yards? Will Jalen rush for 13 TDs? Join EJ Smith and Bo Wulf as they make their predictions.

EJ Smith, an insightful Eagles beat reporter, shares his knowledge on the nail-biting roster cutdown day. He discusses key players like Jalen Hurts and Darius Cooper, while analyzing surprising roster decisions that could shape the team's future. The trio examines strategic choices, potential trades, and the emotional weight of player cuts, all while light-heartedly reminiscing about past moments. Their engaging banter highlights the thrill of roster predictions, making it a fun listen for any Eagles fan.

Were Sam Howell and Fred Johnson just the appetizer? Surely Howie Roseman is not done yet as the Eagles’ roster cuts to 53 loom and the likes of Brett Toth, Ainias Smith, Tristin McCollum, Adoree’ Jackson, Eli Ricks, Trevor Keegan and Myles Hinton twist in the wind and Jalen Hurts, A.J. Brown and Jalen Carter sleep tight. EJ Smith and Bo Wulf submit their final predictions and wonder what Howie has up his magic sleeve.

Another Howie Roseman Sunday trade, this time bringing back lovable swing tackle Fred Johnson, who fared so well for the Eagles when called into action replacing Jordan Mailata and Lane Johnson over the past few years. EJ Smith, Fran Duffy and Bo Wulf react to the second move of the day. Note: After this pod was completed, the Eagles traded away Darian Kinnard to the Green Bay Packers for a 2027 6th round pick.

Remember Sam Howell from that awesome game he played against the Eagles two years ago? Well now he's an Eagle, as Howie Roseman fortified the QB room by trading multiple draft picks for Howell as Tanner McKee deals with a hurt finger and Kyle McCord's lackluster preseason finale left the Eagles wanting a more ready-made player at the position. Fran Duffy, EJ Smith and Bo Wulf react to the move.
