While the Eagles secured the win, it wasn’t without its flaws. JJ led the charge in questioning Jalen Hurts’ performance (shocking, we know), and even Tyles called it one of his worst games of the season. Hurts struggled to find his rhythm, and while the win was a team effort, it raised concerns about whether the Eagles’ quarterback can rebound from his rust as they move deeper into the playoffs. Tyles, however, played the role of optimist, pointing out that despite Hurts’ struggles, the team still found a way to win—a testament to the team’s overall strength.
Key Takeaways from the Game
The episode highlighted a few major takeaways from the game. Jake Elliott’s continued kicking woes came up, particularly after a missed extra point added unnecessary drama. The offensive playcalling also drew criticism, but despite these hiccups, there were positives. The defense stepped up big when it mattered. The team also celebrated key turnovers throughout the game.
Looking Ahead
With the win behind them, the JJ, Tyles, and Kev turned their focus to the road ahead. At the time of recording, the crew were under the impression that the Eagles would face one of three teams: the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the Minnesota Vikings, or the LA Rams. Since the recording, we now know that it’ll be the winner of tonight’s game: the Vikings or the Rams.
Classic GENY Chaos
Of course, no episode of Get ’Em Next Year is complete without the crew’s signature off-topic detours. This week featured references to Marvel’s Infinity Saga and debates about the morality of Star Wars Skywalkers and whether droids have souls or not.
For fans of the Birds and Philly sports in general, this episode is a must-listen. As the Eagles prepare for the next round, Get ’Em Next Year has all the insights, debates, and Philly sports passion to keep you entertained and informed.
