Do you feel like you're coaching for your job?

0:04.2

Like I wonder how to do kind of like...

0:05.9

No, I don't feel like that at all.

0:07.1

I really don't.

0:07.8

I don't.

0:08.7

I'm well beyond that.

0:10.4

I don't feel like that.

0:15.4

Well, it's looking like that's what's necessary.

0:17.8

You know, we need to keep working to get better.

0:19.5

And that's in all areas, all aspects of what we're doing.

0:23.6

I came in here thinking that we were going to turn it right away.

0:25.6

I really did and anticipated doing that, and that's not what's taking place, unfortunately.

0:31.6

All the subtle dance are not so subtle dance that happens when a season has gone sideways

0:36.6

and the coach would like to keep

0:38.0

his job, even if that means the general manager, the person who built the roster that needs to be

it to the Super Bowl that year. That was the Rich Basatia interim game.

2:02.7

And maybe they should have just given Rich Basatia the job. Maybe they'd be a better team right now if they had. But they're just not good enough. They don't have enough good players on both sides of the ball. If I'm Max Crosby, I would want out of there. If I'm Brock Bowers, get me the hell out of there. Those are the two red dot players on the team or blue dot or what color is the dot? Is it blue dot or red dot? I think it's a green dot. Now, you know what I'm talking. Whatever it is, the guy that you have to know where he is at all times. He's the guy. He's the change maker. You know what I mean? They have one on each side of the ball. And why would you want to continue to stay there when it just feels like they're going nowhere? And I don't know what they're going to do. I really don't. It feels unsustainable. 75 yards of offense. Are you kidding me? The lowest they've had since 1961. It was the best Eagles defensive performance since 1955. 75 yards of offense in a modern day NFL game where everything is rigged toward the offense, gaining yards and
