I have a feeling it's more like he realized he needs to step up before his contract expires, than Peloton, but I will take Jordan Davis reportedly discovering cardio work.

Jerry needs to send this guy a free "all you can eat" McDonalds gift card and quickly!!!

I probably lost 20 pounds since leaving Texas. Part of it is that I walk much more in NYC. But a big part is that I'm not eating that Texas brisket and fajitas and stuff. The food there was good, it is one of the things I miss most. Overall, I don't miss it, but I miss that.

Looks like Jeremiah Trotter Jr is penciled in as the starter at LB next to Baum. Nakobe Dean won’t be ready for the opener and Jahaad Campbell won’t be available until August.

I usually get bored after about 10 seconds of reading about other teams preseason crap, but that was a pretty good Q&A. Fangio doesn't seem to sugar coat it and give the BS "everyone is great" canned responses that just become meaningless after a while and also actually seemed to throw out some legit thoughts: DeJean possibly at safety, etc. I loved the 'and three other guys' at DE comment and the comment about "ducking" the question about why it took so long for Davis to get into shape too.

The thing that excites me about where the Eagles defense is would be the fact that it seems like there is competition at nearly every position. In 2023, the LB situation was pretty much “you’re playing because you’re what we have”. Now, if a guy is starting or if a guy is getting snaps it should be because they’ve earned those snaps (at least when all the LBs finally get healthy).

Fangio actually answers questions truthfully. It's very different than most coach press conferences.

Budget issues in the nation's capital?

Meanwhile the Giants are fighting one another in OTAs? May be a good thing, they haven't shown much fight lately.
