0:00.0	Inside the Birds is back.
0:13.9	What's going on, everybody?
0:15.0	It's Jeff Mosher and it's Adam Kaplan.
0:17.0	And it's May.
0:18.0	Welcome to May.
0:18.7	We are past the NFL draft.
0:20.3	Adam and I like to do every year a depth chart podcast series. We usually divided up offense defense, but we both talked and we thought it would be better if we did this as a series. And we really went inside each position a little more. I mean, there's a lot of change going on with the Eagles roster right now,
0:39.3	and they've got a lot of guys, and Adam and I just thought it would be a great.
0:42.1	It was Adam's idea, great idea to really separate it by position
0:45.5	and not just in more du pods so that we can go deep inside each position.
0:50.3	So we're going to start off this pod series with this podcast being about the quarterback.
0:56.3	And it's a really, Adam, this is the most interesting, puzzling, I'll even say,
1:03.2	quarterback depth chart that you're going to see in the league because you have Jill and Hertz,
1:09.4	that's fine as your starter will get it to him

1:16.0	quarterback who's played in this league for 15 years, has been to the playoffs, has been to the
1:21.1	Pro Bowl, not your typical number three. And then, of course, your developmental number four with
1:26.6	the rookie Cole Payton,
1:27.6	who himself has a lot of interesting, I guess, an interesting future in teams saw him
1:34.1	differently. So it's a very unique looking kept track, to say the least, right? Yeah, they've got
1:38.9	four quarterbacks. You've got revised offensive coaching staff. You've got a new play caller.
2:18.1	You got a new pass-a-game coordinator. You got a new Ted Anns coach. You've got a new run game coordinator. Yeah. And the quarterbacks coach, Park Frazier, was on the staff. But you have to really search to see where he's developed quarterbacks before. Yeah. And they've got a job to do here. They've got to get the quarterback back, not only back on track, but he's got to learn yet another new offense with new coaches. A lot of them new other than Parks Frazier. And it's, this thing could go a variety of ways. You know, they're running an offense that, I know, some people say this will never work with Jalen Hertz. I'm a little bit to the contrary with it. To me, I think it's,
