Hey everyone, I'm JJ Stankovits and welcome into a preview edition of the Undercenter podcast brought to you by Sprinkler Fitters Union Local 281.

My guest today is NBC Sports Philadelphia Eagles reporter Dave Zangero, who joins me to explain why Jordan Howard is fit in well in the Eagles offense and why the

2000 Kansas City Chiefs will have such a massive influence over Sunday's game at Lincoln Financial Field.

All that and more on the Under Center podcast starting right now.

What it means to me to be a Chicago bear, it's an easy question.

It means everything to me.

That means rich tradition, black and blue division, defense, legends, linebackers.

The history of it, I mean, I'm a big history guy, so understanding this was one of the first franchises just kind of blows my mind honestly that was able to be a part of that.

The city, just the nostalgia of playing for a story franchise, the story franchise of the running back position with guys like Gail Sayers and Walter Payton and being able to follow in those footsteps.

So being a bear means everything.

And what more can you say?

All right, Dave, let's start here. What has been the vibe about Jordan Howard in the Eagles

facility this week? I understand you haven't had a chance to talk to him as we're recording here

on Friday, but how are he and the Eagles approaching him facing his old team that cast him aside back in March?

Yeah, I mean, I think that when we do talk to Jordan, he's going to say all the right things,

that it's just a normal game that he doesn't have any extra motivation.

And we all kind of know that's crap, right?

I mean, we know that guys, when they face their former teams,

especially in a situation where you were traded for basically a bag of footballs,

that you're going to want to prove something to your former team.

So he can say whatever he wants.

I think it's going to mean something to him.
