| 0:00.0 | Hey, what's up everybody? Welcome into another edition of DeCecho Daily. It's Andrew DeCecho, |
| 0:14.8 | Eagles Beat Reporter for Inside thebirds.com. And we have some Eagles news, though not in the way of offensive coordinator. |
| 0:22.1 | More on that in a moment. But the Eagles, to no surprise, have elevated safeties coach, |
| 0:27.1 | Joe Casper, to defensive backs coach slash past game coordinator, the role previously held by |
| 0:33.4 | Christian Parker, who last week became the Dallas Cowboys defensive coordinator. |
| 0:38.8 | I've heard a lot of really good things about Joe Casper talking to players over the past |
| 0:42.8 | couple of years, and he is a sharp-minded defensive coach who is really well-versed in |
| 0:50.6 | Vic Fangio system, obviously, but he focuses on fundamentals and detail. |
| 0:55.5 | As one player told me, he coaches really hard and they strive for perfection. |
| 1:00.8 | Now, Joe Casper first joined the Eagles as a defensive quality control coach in 21 and 22, |
| 1:07.9 | the first two years of Nick Siriani in Philadelphia. |

| 1:42.6 | And there he oversaw the growth and development of the likes of Reed Blankenship, who has become a cornerstone type of player for the Eagles, that back end traffic cop type of guy who is somebody who the Eagles have a lot of trust in when it comes to communication and making sure everybody's assignment sound. |
| 1:46.7 | Then you have Drew McCuba, the rookie, who obviously there were some growing pains early on in his rookie season, but he was coming on a little bit before he fractured his ankle |
| 1:51.0 | in late November against the Cowboys. |
| 1:53.5 | Then you have the play of CJ Gardner Johnson in the past and also Marcus Epps, who |
| 1:59.3 | stepped in and did a really nice job when McCuba went down. |
| 2:03.2 | A couple of veteran players who I thought really made it so that the defense didn't miss a beat when they were in there. |
| 2:09.6 | And I think a lot of that has to do with the coaching under Joe Casper. |
| 2:13.1 | And there's also two practice squad players in Brandon Johnson and Andre Sam, both of which have been |
| 2:20.0 | elevated on different occasions to the 53-man roster for the game day, for the game day |
