Zach Berman and Bo Wulf recap it all, plus react to the news th...

Fresh off another spring practice, we’re taking a look at some of the wide-ranging issues surrounding the Eagles, the NFL and the world in another rousing edition of Tic-Zach-Bo. Where does DeVonta Smith rank among the recently extended wide receivers like Amon-Ra St. Brown, Jaylen Waddle and Nico Collins?

It’s the time of year to dream big, so we’re highlighting the breakout candidates for the Eagles heading into next season. At the top of the roster, who are the best bets to make a leap into superstardom? DeVonta Smith? Who in the middle of the roster can make a jump to Pro Bowl-level play? C.J. Gardner-Johnson? What about the guys who are fighting for roster spots who can leap into competence? Me...

Today’s framing device is a way to contextualize the expectations for specific Eagles players heading into the 2024 season. What’s the right precedent from recent history for Saquon Barkley? Is the Tyler Steen/Matt Hennessy dynamic akin to Isaac Seumalo/Stefen Wisniewski from 2017? What do Nolan Smith and Nelson Agholor have to do with each other?  Zach Berman and Bo Wulf dip into their knowledge...

Happy Memorial Day weekend to the sickos out there, as we take a spin around the grid of discussion.

Fresh off the sweaty practice field at the NovaCare Complex, we’re live with everything you need to know about the first open spring practice for the Eagles. Second-year offensive lineman Tyler Steen worked with the starters at right guard. Quinyon Mitchell looked good when tested deep, but lined up with the second-team defense while Isaiah Rodgers worked with the starters. Saquon Barkley’s thighs...

Question the wisdom of Zach Berman at your peril. DeVante Parker, the consummate professional who made a career of hauling in contested catches, opted to retire Monday at the behest of his family.

With the first open day of OTAs looming, Zach and Bo preview everything they’re interested in seeing when Saquon...

The full Eagles roster is out on the practice field for the first time this spring as Organized Team Activities begin for an Eagles team that has seen significant offseason turnover.

Andy McCullough has several claims to fame, including the release of his new book, “The Last of His Kind: Clayton Kershaw and the Burden of Greatness.” Foremost among those accomplishments, though, is the time he spent at Syracuse University with a young Zach Berman.  McCullough, the local boy made good, joins Zach and Bo Wulf to discuss his new book, the things he learned about Kershaw as someone...

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?

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.

(00:00) - Intro (...

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...

Brandon Brooks was one of the best offensive linemen in the league during his five years with the Philadelphia Eagles and an important player on the Super Bowl champions. Not too shabby. Never content to rest on his laurels, Brooks quickly took on a lot in his post-playing career, enrolling in the Wharton School of Business … where he took a class with our beloved professor Deniz Selman.  Today, w...

The passing of the guard, er, center along the Philadelphia Eagles’ offensive line means its most important position group faces some questions heading into the 2024 season.

Fresh off rookie camp, Keegan joins the show to discuss...

There are plenty of spots up for grabs in a new-look Vic Fangio defense for the Eagles. Does James Bradberry stick around? Does Quinyon Mitchell start right away?

With the major portion of the team-building process in the rearview, it’s time to take stock of what the Eagles’ depth chart looks like.

Who emerges at wide receiver among Ainias Smith, Parris Campbell, DeVante Parker, Johnny Wilson and Britain Covey? I...
