Inside the Birds is back. What's going on, everybody. It is Jeff Mosier, Adam Cap and we've got an end of the week here.

Inside the Birds. We've got a lot to discuss, Adam. We've and we've got an end of the week here inside the birds.

We've got a lot to discuss, Adam.

We've got, it's that time of the year, my friend, it's playoff clinching scenario time.

So we'll discuss that because there's much at stake with this weekend's games, week 15 in the NFL.

If you're counting, we've got injury news for both teams, the Eagles and the Steelers,

and we've got a little bit of a game preview and some game symmetry.

You know, these are two familiar franchises with both front office and players that know each other,

and that always makes for a good intrastate rivalry.

So we'll get through all of that

in the pod. I want to start off by asking you, as we move away from what AJ Brown said, what

Brandon Graham said, the passing offense, I think we've covered that pretty well all week long

on Inside the Birds. But I wanted to get your takeaway on Jalen Hertz's response, which I found

really interesting, by the way. You know, he had a long press conference. He talked about a lot of

different things. But it's this quote in particular I wanted us to talk about where he says,

quote, it's about the team. I don't care how it looks. It's kind of my game. It's going to look how Jalen

Hertz wants it to look, you know, but he's going to win. And man, I probably thought about

that quote for like, did like a lot of mental gymnastics, probably more than he meant for people

to intend to do. But it's really an interesting quote because in it, Adam, there's sort of an admission

that the game doesn't look pretty all the time.

And then there's an ambition that it nine times out of ten or whatever the stats are,

it results in a win.
