00:00Brandon Graham does a show a weekly thing Monday nights I guess on WIP in

00:09Philly with one a couple of local hosts there and he's it's at a bar I guess and

00:14every week people come out it's you know one of those things they do you guys

00:17been there a long time so you figure he would say the right things a veteran

00:21leader but he kind of caused a problem here last night but this really started

00:26Sunday after the game it was a close Eagle win over the Carolina Panthers

00:31afterwards AJ Brown you know kind of let it be known that he wasn't thrilled he

00:37was asked about what needs to change on the offense he used a one-word answer

00:41passing really just throwing the finger at his quarterback Jalen Hurts then you

00:46led to Graham last night who said Hurts and Brown don't like each other anymore

00:50they're letting personal feelings get in the way of business they've got to

00:55figure it all out this was Sirianni yesterday before the Brandon Graham

01:00stuff he was asked about AJ Brown saying passing after the game on Sunday he

01:05tried to squash everything and say oh it's gonna be alright you know we're

01:08gonna watch film and the guys are gonna get together kumbaya what I do know when

01:13when guys I love that guys care you know and they care about the how they perform

01:20they care about us meeting our standard and you don't love that that just leads

01:25into getting better and so you know my only thought is on that is hey we're

01:32gonna get to work today which we already did and watch the tape with them and

01:35make the corrections and be critical of ourselves as coaches and how we can put

01:39them in better situations how we can do different stuff to help to help out and

01:44everybody doing their part and so it's just an opportunity for you to grow and

01:47to get better and that's what any anytime you step on the field there's an

01:51opportunity for that. Have you ever seen anything like this team they win every

01:56week and all they do is complain on the radio we've had this conversation now

02:02multiple times I've never seen anything like a team that wins and people just

02:07cannot stand the way they perform the I mean I think the expectations there are

02:15you know stratospheric like they're that they're crazy these people they

02:20actually think that they should never lose a game ever ever not ever not one

02:25game ever in the history of the franchise should they ever lose and I

02:29think that it's embarrassing like the fact that here we go again that they've

02:34got all this turmoil and the players hate each other and that Jalen Hurts

02:38sucks is laughable okay let's face facts their identity now is a running

02:46team that's who they are they got Barkley for a reason and they have great

02:50receivers and it hasn't panned out but they win every effing game they play and

02:56their defense is good their running game is extremely good and I don't understand

03:01it at all I'm sick and tired of it I really am like listening to these people

03:06complain and I saw him did you see the fans outside the link they interview all

03:12these fans about what's wrong with the team and they all say it's hurts and

03:15that they should draft I heard him say a guy said they should draft Jackson Dart

03:19are you kidding me Jalen Hurts package Jackson so they're so stupid these fans

03:27I mean they are really you you people are you people I mean you really are

03:32something else you people you are some stupid-ass people I've never seen you

03:36like I told you I go to the games they're incognito and I just keep my

03:40mouth shut I go with like you know a hoodie on and the whole deal and I

03:45cannot believe really their behavior to begin with honestly well and I know you

03:53always love this this will be the final word so Graham then this morning has to

03:58walk it all back and call back into the radio station and he says listen you're

04:04gonna love this I made a mistake and assumed that it was something that it

04:08wasn't I just want to win so bad that I don't want to use the media when we need

04:13to talk about something we can fix the problem ourselves I didn't add to it in

04:17a good light that's my bad I really just want to win I want my brothers to be

04:22able to hash it out if they let me just tell you something that guy has been in

04:25the league forever he's won a Super Bowl in Philadelphia he exactly what he

04:31said last night is what happened these two guys don't like each other why walk

04:35it back in that way this morning when you know it's just lying that's that's

04:39called Howie and Sirianni got him in the room or got him on the phone and said

04:43you better go fix this we're 11 and 2 we're trying to win a Super Bowl like you

04:48fix this that now go back on the radio it's pathetic it's pathetic it's even

04:52worse it's it's not that bad that he said it because he had the stones to say

04:59it now if you're gonna go do some stupid ass radio show and you're gonna let him

05:03do it he's gonna eventually put his foot in his mouth and that's exactly what he

05:07did and then to actually walk it back there's nothing more embarrassing that

05:13we think that exists in the world on this show than people that say things

05:17and then a day later and a dollar short I have to walk it back because some

05:22executive you know called him on the phone and gave him the business and said

05:27you're gonna you're gonna apologize it happens all the time in life and in

05:31business where people say things they have to walk back and frankly there's

05:38nothing I hate worse if I say something I mean it I mean I honestly I mean it

05:44and then I've had to do it myself left and right I have been in more trouble

05:49than you know everywhere along my 41 years with things that I've said I joke

05:54all the time on sports good about the red phone but it's it's reality the red

05:59phone is the trouble phone that's the phone call when you're in trouble for

06:03something you say and then the guy walks it back you're like a pansy you're a

06:07pansy you're a phony I don't care how big you are how tough you are how badass

06:13you are we all know now that you're a phony Brandon Graham's a phony cuz he

06:19just said I didn't mean it that's not what I meant
