Watching the Birds

BGN Radio was without a doubt created the Eagles podcasting environment that we hear and see today. But back in 2013, it was a much different time with lots of corporate greed, drama, and unfair pay. Michael Clay joins us from the Discord as he and John go back and forth to tell the real story of the rise and fall of BGN Radio.    Join us in the Discord: https://discord.gg/y455KDRYnC Follow Wrappi...

I didn't want to come on with a negative slant this week, and I think I still found some optimism for the defensive rookies, but there is no way Nick Sirianni is coming to back to this team next year. The press conference from Nick on Wednesday was astoundingly alarming to me. He described why he kicked a FG instead of going for it on 4th down vs the Falcons with his "own chart" of analytics and i...

Vic Fangio is going to leave Philadelphia a legend, and there is still a ways to go personnel wise to make that happen with the front 7. John breaks down why this is going to be a special unit as long as Howie keeps letting Vic pick the groceries, since Roseman doesn't seem to be that great at finding what he needs. But Roseman certainly found what he needs in the secondary and they are the true s...

EAGLES ARE 1-0 and I am little disappointed in you. You were about to bail on Jalen Hurts this year until you started watching the 1p games on Sunday, weren't you? I KNEW IT! Jalen played terrible and it should have cost them the game. I promise you it's okay to say that out loud! In this episode I get into why I am so confident in Jalen moving forward and why I believe this needs to Barkley's tea...

In an offseason where everyone has tried to scare you about the Eagles, Jalen Hurts, and anything else they can find to show you why it's going to be a bad season. John Barchard is back this week to tell you to enjoy this ride because he thinks it's about to become petty as this Eagles team get back to Super Bowl form. AND we get personal about what happened last offseason with the show shutting d...

After one preseason game John Barchard's biggest overreaction was that Kenny Pickett just doesn't seem like a QB2 that you can go win you games. Kenny was a 2 year starter who didn't look that much different than Tanner Mckee!! That's a problem.   ALSO: Would you welcome Hasson Reddick back after now asking for a trade from the Jets?   AND: Tim McManus finally answers all of the questions we had o...

John Barchard breaks down why he believes Kellen Moore's offense will unlock the true potential of Jalen Hurts in 2024. No more hoping that AJ gets open in time, we are on to three step drops and pistol formations! It's time once again for Jalen Hurts to MVP in 2024. 

John Barchard chimes in about the much talked about mandatory minicamp press conferences between Jalen Hurts and Nick Sirianni. Nick and Jalen don't need to get a long, they need to make more money and win football games. There are countless examples of players and personnel not getting along and winning Super Bowls together.     PLUS: John urges Jeffery Lurie to buy the Flyers and the incoming WN...

John Barchard is back wants us all to accept that Nick Sirianni can be a puppet for the front office and great coach at the same time. PLUS: More likely, Kellen Moore is here to help Nick or Kellen is here to take Nick's job? AND: and ESP update, John got a call from Spike Eskin. 

John goes after Brian Baldinger for calling Jordan Davis fat and lazy this past season and inserts himself back into the Kyle Hamilton debates. PLUS: Why the hell did Howie Roseman go with Sean Desai and Matt Patricia in 2023?  Was it just to ensure Vic Fangio comes back for this season? John seems to think so! 

WE'RE BACK FOR THE START OF EAGLES OTA! We have one question: Why does Eliot Shorr-Parks STILL remain silent getting called out from DeSean Jackson? John Barchard rants on why he thinks it happening and more!

We back and we aren't going anywhere! More news on the way but I am not letting this ESP vs DeSean Jackson feud go lol.

The Cowboys choked at the end of the game to give our Eagles a win to go into the bye week and keep the best record in the NFL. Despite the injuries and lack of major plays on the defensive side, Jalen Hurts has been making a great case for MVP throughout 9 weeks.
