On this installment of OPPOSITION TERRITORY, Matt Holleran from SB Nation’s BloggingTheBoys.com joined us for our Eagles vs. Cowboys preview podcast - their second NFC East matchup of the season! We dove into what we’ll be seeing this Sunday between two powerhouse NFL teams. One of these teams is going to have a lot of momentum for the remainder of the season once this game is all said and done. The guys discussed the following: - What will Shaq Leonard’s impact be in the middle of the field for the Eagles defense? - How much of a key is TE Jake Ferguson becoming for this Cowboys offense? - The Cowboys defensive’ backs struggle when facing teams that have two top-tier receivers. - Where are the Cowboys vulnerable on the offensive side of the ball?

This week on TABLE TALK, Jeff sat down with Ryan Gilbert from Audacy Sports, The Hockey Gambling Podcast, and BroadStreetHockey.com about how this Philadelphia Flyers team is looking here in early December. Yes, it’s been fun to watch this team, but what does this season mean for the future of the rebuild? Topics that Ryan and Jeff dove into: - We've seen more aggressiveness on the ice than in previous seasons, which is welcomed and engaging for fans. - Will this team continue to outshoot opponents and might it be a trend? - The direction and front office managerial changes that have been a positive impact that we’re seeing almost every night on the ice. - The power play stinks, yet the penalty kill is doing real well - what’s with the special teams disparity?

Week 13 of the Philadelphia Eagles 2023-2024 season is now in the books, and it was, by far, their worst performance this season as they now have their second loss. The Birds lost to the San Francisco 49’ers at The Linc in Philadelphia by a score of 42-19. The Eagles are now 10-2 on the season, and they remain in first place in the NFC East division. The Eagles got steamrolled in the trenches, and were out-coached in every phase of the game. Niners quarterback Brock Purdy put up touchdowns when the Eagles settled for field goals in the first half. In fact, Purdy went 6 of 7 for 119 yards with a TD in the third quarter and had a 158.3 rating. Meanwhile, the Eagles defense gave up huge chunk plays, once again, in this game as we’ve seen for weeks now. The middle of the field was a playing ground for the Niners offensive weapons as the Eagles linebackers and secondary had no answers for them. As always, we gave our themes, takeaways and graded the units and coaches. Head over to our website for all of our podcasts and more: https://philadelphiasportstable.com.

The Philadelphia 76’ers are having a successful season thus far, and they’ve been a fun team for the fans to watch. The question is: are the Sixers a top NBA team? This week, Sean Barnard from Pick Swap Media and Fox Sports Philly The Gambler joined us to break down what we’ve been seeing on the court with this team, and how head coach Nick Nurse has been a breath of fresh air for Sixers basketball. But first, we dove into a thought about the Kelce brothers and media darling narrative. Would they be getting so much acclaim if they were black? (approx. 11:05) We then discussed how the national narrative surrounding the Eagles, at 10-1 on the season, claims they’re simply a lucky team. How ridiculous. (approx. 22:30) From there, we introduced our new segment, “Shoot them off a DM.” If we had the opportunity to DM anyone in the world of Philly sports about anything and would receive a response from them, who would we DM, and what would that DM be? (approx. 33:30) We then discussed the NBA Eastern Conference and how things have been looking for the top teams. (approx. 44:50) What we threw down on the Table this week was an in-depth discussion and interview with Sean Barnard from Pick Swap Media and Fox Sports Philly The Gambler about this Sixers team. We assessed the starters, their strengths and what they need to improve on. How much of this year’s early success can be placed at Nick Nurse’s feet? What kind of talent might Daryl Morey look to bring to this team before the trade deadline in February? Plus much more within this discussion!

On this installment of OPPOSITION TERRITORY, Mike Raymond from Fox Sports Radio of the Lehigh Valley joined us for our Eagles vs. 49’ers preview podcast! We dove into what we’ll be seeing this coming Sunday between two high-powered and talented NFC teams in what will always be known as the NFC Championship rematch of 2023! Mike and Jeff discussed the following: - The AFC was supposed to be the powerhouse conference, but now it's the NFC who appears more dominant with the Eagles and 49'ers at the top. - Brock Purdy and Jalen Hurts are two very different quarterbacks. What strengths does Brock Purdy have this season where he could be the better quarterback this coming week? - What are the vulnerabilities on both the 49’ers offense and defense? - The one thing the Eagles and 49’ers will need to hit on for a win this week.

This week on TABLE TALK, Jeff sat down with Dave Archibald, author of the book “The Inches We Need,” for an in-depth discussion about what team building means in the NFL, how teams are doing it, and what it means for the future of the sport. Topics that Dave and Jeff dove into: - Why certain teams falter and others succeed with regard to team building. - Where does team building in the NFL manifest; the front office or with players in the locker room? - How are we seeing NFL teams adapting to change more and more here in 2023? - A look at the Jets, Patriots, Bears, Cowboys, and Vikings, and whether or not they’re doing team building the right or wrong way.

Week 12 of the Philadelphia Eagles 2023-2024 season is now in the books! The Birds beat the Buffalo Bills in overtime at The Linc in Philadelphia by a score of 37-34. The Eagles are now 10-1 on the season, they clinched a playoff berth, and they remain in first place in the NFC East division. As they did last week, the Eagles dug a huge hole for themselves. When the score was 24 and 14 Bills, it was the largest deficit entering the fourth quarter for the Eagles in 2023. But they came back thanks to Jalen Hurts who threw for three touchdowns and ran for two. He was absolutely clutch when he needed to be. Meanwhile, the Eagles defense gave up huge chunk plays in this game, and were absolutely atrocious on 3rd and long. Once again, they were horrible letting their opponent convert 3rd downs throughout the game. While the Bills dominated time of possession in this game, we discussed whether or not that stat truly means that much anymore. As always, we gave our themes, takeaways and graded the units and coaches. And we appreciated our friend of the podcast, Josh Shuster from PhiladelphiaSoccerNow.com, filling in for the guys this week!

It’s the Hot Stove season, and the Philadelphia Phillies are already making significant offseason moves to solidify their starting pitching rotation for years to come. What other signings may be coming after they gave Aaron Nola a 7-year contract? This week, we talked to John Stolnis from TheGoodPhight.com and the Hittin’ Season podcast at WHYY and Billy Penn about the direction this team is heading during this offseason. What other moves might Phillies owner John Middleton make as we look to 2024? (approx 6:50) We hope you and yours have a great Thanksgiving week and season!

Week 11 of the Philadelphia Eagles 2023-2024 season is now in the books! The Birds beat the Kansas City Chiefs at Arrowhead in Kansas City by a score of 21-17 in this year’s Super Bowl rematch! The Eagles are now 9-1 on the season, and they remain in first place in the NFC East division. This was mostly an ugly game for the offense, not executing on nearly 75% of their plays. The Eagle had 78 yards of total offense and Jalen Hurts was sacked 5 times in the first half. The run defense was shredded for 121 yards, the most any team has run for against Philly this season, in the first half. But at the end of the day, both the offense and the defense made plays when they needed to. They were tenacious. Meanwhile, the Eagles secondary had their best performance of the season. The defense overall held Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs offense to zero points in the second half. Quite remarkable. As always, we gave our themes, takeaways and graded the units and coaches.
