The Josh Innes Show - I Hate The Eagles

Episode Date: September 30, 2025

I enjoy that AJ Brown's passive aggressive tweeting is a big story. Of course it is. He's a mental case when he's not getting the ball. That said, I despise the Eagles. I hate the way they win. I h...ate the offense. They must be stopped. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Starting point is 00:01:26 Whatever the issue is, these dudes are mental cases. My man plays on a 4-0 team, but he ain't getting his touches, and now he's basically out here doing fucking cryptic tweeting and passive-aggressive shit, which you knew was coming. The fall for the Eagles is coming. And I'll be real with you, McDougal. I'm rooting for it, and I'm hoping for it. Like, I want to see this fucking thing collapse.
Starting point is 00:01:50 Like, this is what happens when you become such a well-run organization. and you win all the time, and then you find ways to win that are not the normal ways to win. People will hate you. That comes with it, and I fucking hate you, and I need this to stop.

Let's read some of this Siriani story. Nick Siriani believes A.J. Brown wants to remain with the Eagles. Coach Nick Siriani asked about A.J. Brown's cryptic tweet following Sunday's game said he believes the receiver wants to remain in Philadelphia.
Starting point is 00:02:52 and suggested that whatever frustration he's feeling is tied to his desire to help the team win. That sounds cute and all. His desire is to get his, right? And I get that, right? Like, I've felt that. Like, you're part of something successful. If you're not adding to the success of a team, you feel like shit. But it's also because the guy wants to get his because he wants to get his.
Starting point is 00:03:14 Like, it goes both ways, right? You want to have the success because you want to feel like you've helped, but you also want 75, 80 yards, and six catches in a touchdown, so you can swing your dick a little bit, you know? Right now, basically the team is the defense and Jalen Hertz running. That's what the team is. So, and that's, I think, the part that probably sucks even more of your A.J. Brown, who is, in fact, an elite player at his position, when you watch dudes like Jalen Hertz,
Starting point is 00:03:39 who are not legit players at their position, who are the guy that just runs the whole damn thing. I would imagine it's annoying. Obviously, AJ is very important to this football team, Siriani said Monday. I know he wants to contribute and do the things he's capable of doing. He wants to contribute into these wins, and he's had a couple of games where he hasn't been able to be, you know, for different reasons. I question nothing about his desire to play great football, his desire of being a good teammate, his desire to be here. Brown finished with two catches for seven yards on nine targets, and the Eagles 3125 went over the bucks in Tampa. The passing game stalled in the second half with quarterback Jalen Hertz going O for
Starting point is 00:04:15 eight, allowing the bucks to mount a comeback. Brown declined to talk to reporters post game. A short time later, he posted a quote from the Bible. If you're not welcome, not listen to, quietly withdraw, do not make a scene, shrug your shoulders, and be on your way. It has been a relatively quiet start to the season for Brown, who has 14 catches for 151 yards. I'm shocked that he has 14 catches. Me personally, I truly believe we've got so many good players on this team, and At times, you can feel like we're being too conservative, Brown said last week. Like, this is not a good situation.
Starting point is 00:04:53 Now, one could argue that that means this week he's going to get like 500 targets. Like, that's kind of how this works. You sulk a little bit. You post something cryptic. And then your boy gets to the ball 50 times. The problem is, I don't know that Jalen Hertz can get anybody the ball because Jalen Hertz isn't good. God, I hate the Eagles so much.
Starting point is 00:05:11 It's not a... Now, I want to be very clear. Because when people hear this, of course, it becomes, Oh, you're just mad because you got you bitter because you got fire and we ran your ass out of time. And no, it has nothing to do with that. I have not hated the Eagles in the past. I didn't hate the Eagles that made the Super Bowl run with Nick Foles. I hate this Eagles team because the Eagles do everything wrong offensively, yet they're 4-0.
Starting point is 00:05:34 They can't run the ball with the best running back in the game. They can't pass the ball with one of the best receivers in the game. It's just Jalen Hertz, just doing Jalen Hertz shit. and they're winning because dudes are blocking kicks and dudes are getting interceptions. I fucking hate them. Do something well. I'm watching you and you're winning games you should not be winning based on how mediocre your offense is and it pisses me off.
Starting point is 00:05:58 That's it. That's all. I hate your fucking offense with a page. Last year I didn't hate it because you were able to run the ball and you did something well. How many yards a game did Sequin average last year? Like 130 yards per game all total, all per person. purpose yards? I enjoyed that. That was nice because you were good at something. You were a
Starting point is 00:06:18 dominant team running the football. You currently do nothing well except quarterback sneak. You are an elite quarterback sneaking team. You do a quarterback sneak with a cute name. That's what you're good at offensively. Be better offensively. Be more interesting. Do something that people want to see. And I know that Philly people are riding it right now and they're like, hey, just win, baby. we're winning. Yeah, until the fucking lucky rabbit's foot stops working and you no longer block field goals to win games and you no longer have Baker Mayfield throwing picks in the end zone. When those things level out, at the end of the day, your offense fucking sucks. And when you're going to, like, at some point, like, it's going to come back and get you. At some point, having a crappy mid-level quarterback is going to come back and get you.
Starting point is 00:07:07 at some point having Sequin Barclay who can't run the ball at all will come back and get you. At some point having an elite wide receiver who's cryptic tweeting the fucking Bible because he's not getting the ball will come back and get you. And it's wild because this is the best run organization maybe in sports. Howie Roseman is a fucking stud. Look at the roster. The man built it and it's loaded with offensive talent. Sequin Barkley is on a team that was a division rival of his previous team.
Starting point is 00:07:37 and he's there. A.J. Brown is there. Devonte Smith is there. Dallas Goddard is there. The offensive line is elite when healthy. The only offensive position or group that isn't elite is the quarterback. You are elite everywhere. Yet your offense is unwatchable. That's a problem. Now, you're four, oh, just win, just win. That's all cute. And all of these McDougals are saying, that until it finally wears off. McDougal's all about just win, just win, just win, just win. That's all well and good until the one day that it doesn't work out, until the one day that Baker Mayfield doesn't throw the ball away into the end zone for an interception,
Starting point is 00:08:23 until the one day that you're down 20 to the Rams and somehow you get a block kick to win the game. Eventually, those are not, blocking field goals to win games and blocking puns is not a sustainable way of winning games. defense is. And their defense is pretty fucking solid. But you have to have some offense and you don't. So the worst argument I hear is, well, Jalen Hurts said they don't need him to throw. Every team needs their quarterback to throw. That's the job of the quarterback is to throw. Well, they only need them. They only use them to throw and they need him to throw. Then why the fuck would
Starting point is 00:09:01 AJ Brown want to play there? Why would any receiver want to play somewhere where, well, we throw if we need to throw. This isn't 1970. You're not Navy. You're like, hey, well, you know, we like to catch them off guard and throw, but we don't throw a lot because we don't need to throw. The fuck you don't need to throw. You're pulling off miracles to win these games. Of course you need to throw. It's 2025.
Starting point is 00:09:27 What do we do it? Oh, well, we don't have to throw. That's not how our offense operates. How is your office? Well, we like to, you know, just run the ball into the ground and then punt and then wait for them to fuck up, and that's our offense. Like, I can get why A.J. Brown's pissed off. You know, look at Jamar Chase. You think Jamar Chase isn't pissed off right now trying to catch passes from Jake Browning? I mean, my Christ, I mean, it's dreadful. So it sucks when you have some guy that can't get you the ball.
Starting point is 00:09:57 And they're going to force it to him this week, no doubt. Like, that's his play. So I don't know what his receptions total is. I would imagine it's still low. I would probably take the A.J. Brad. If he's not going to have catches this week, he's never going to have catches. If he's not going to have catches in a week that he's like, hey, I'm quoting the Bible and being depressed. So please, I'm begging you to throw me the ball. If you're not going to get catches from him, let's see what his receptions. Let's see if those stats are up yet for the Eagles. Are they playing this week? Maybe they're not. Maybe they're off this week. Oh, there they are. The Broncos. All right. So there's nothing up yet for his
Starting point is 00:10:34 receptions but whatever his receptions are take them i don't know about yards but they're going to throw it to him so and i would imagine that number still relatively low because again the guys got 14 catches in four weeks so the guy's averaging like three catches a week give or take and i'm shocked it's that so this should be a big week for a j brown but anyway all right more to come
