00:00The game at the link in Philly with the Rams and Eagles, let's start with the weather before

00:05we get into any injuries or otherwise.

00:07Yeah, in fact, now listen, let's let me make this clear.

00:12Forecasts can change.

00:13I'm very into weather for everything I do in my career, particularly what we do here.

00:18And right now the latest forecast has it snowing all game now, but again, it's not a lot of

00:22snow up to an inch.

00:23Yes, it could change and we could have no snow, but I'm just telling you as of Thursday,

00:28that's what's expected.

00:30Decent amount of wind, not terrible.

00:32Now look, the Eagles don't throw the ball at us, you know, because the offense goes

00:35with Saquon Barkley.

00:36Oh, by the way, by the way, remember that over-under total was a thousand and two yards.

00:39Do you remember that, Scott?

00:40Yeah.

00:41As we talked earlier.

00:43And boy, he had that really early.

00:45So look, for the Rams, they have a couple of injury concerns here, and this one is important.

00:48Akil O'Weatherspoon, you might remember him for the 49ers, played in the Super Bowl.

00:52He's a tall corner.

00:53He's got a hamstring issue.

00:54They're not sure if he can play.

00:56And then Alaric Jackson, their left tackle, they believe he can play.

00:59Tyler Higbee, by the way, has been cleared.

01:01Now, Scott, Higbee got off to an incredible start.

01:04He was going to crush his prop.

01:07In fact, he had a number of catches in the first quarter.

01:10Then he had a chest contusion.

01:11He got sent to the hospital to figure out why he was bleeding, but they believe he's

01:15going to be able to go.

01:16And by the way, Higbee had three touchdowns at the link during the COVID year.

01:21So that's a guy that's pretty athletic and could hurt the Eagles there.

01:24Now, for the Eagles, AJ Brown's going to play.

01:28He got some work in today.

01:29He got hurt against your Steelers.

01:31If you recall that game in Week 15 at Philly, the Eagles shocked everybody to run the clock

01:36out.

01:37They threw the football instead of running it, and AJ Brown got tackled awkwardly.

01:41And unfortunately, he's been not the same since then.

01:44He doesn't look great.

01:45He just does not look great.

01:46And by the way, you can't take the player properly over with AJ Brown right now, because

01:51the offense does not go through jail and hurts his arm like it did in 2022.

01:55It goes through the hands and feet of Saquon Barkley.

01:59So you can't, you got to, any passing props, you got to, you got to ignore them.

02:04There's just, I can't see it.

02:05And plus with the weather, it's totally up in the air.

02:08And this guy Barkley went off for 255 against the Rams in his best game of the year.

02:13Yeah, he was, fact, Scott, he had two 70-yard runs in that game.

02:18Think about that.

02:19Scott, at SoFi.
