| 0:00.0 | It's playoff week, Rub, I'm excited. |
| 0:10.4 | I am too. |
| 0:11.1 | It's a fun week. |
| 0:11.8 | It's always fun. |
| 0:12.8 | And we're lucky. |
| 0:13.5 | I mean, the team we cover is always in the playoffs. |
| 0:15.3 | So what is? |
| 0:16.9 | I guess this would be since 17. |
| 0:19.6 | They've only missed it once, right? |
| 0:20.7 | Mm-hmm. So seven out of eight years. Yeah, they're a fun team to cover because they're always good. Yeah. Don't take it for granted. Someone who covers the team, shouldn't take it for granted as a fan. You get to see the playoffs every year. That's a lot of fun. This is the Eagle Eye podcast brought to you by Nissan, Ruben Frank, and Dave Zangaro. Rubba was funny. I was talking to one of our colleagues, J.P. Finley, before the Eagles' commanders game. And it's like, he's getting ready for a locker clean out. And this happens quite a bit. It does put it in perspective that, like, man, the Eagles are in the playoffs every year. |

| 1:12.7 | the Eagles are the only repeat winner in their division in the NFL this year. So that puts |
| 1:18.7 | it in perspective, too. Which is crazy. Yeah. And the Eagles and Bill is the only teams to make |
| 1:23.6 | the playoffs five straight years. And I think the bills have made a seven straight. But Tampa didn't make it. The chiefs didn't make it. Some perennial playoff teams, the Ravens didn't make it. So as we all saw in that heartbreaker. But yeah, they're just a team that's going to be good every year with the ownership in place, the GM, the quarterback, and the coach. |
| 2:03.5 | I mean, you're strong up the middle. You're going to be good. Yeah, and it doesn't mean they're going to go to the Super Bowl this year. We'll talk about what it would take for that to happen. Three wins. Three game winning streak. That is true. That is how that will need to happen. But a lot to talk about today.
