About this episode

The Eagles hear your concerns about the (lack of) offensive style points in their NFC Wild Card win over the Green Bay Packers. They know everyone’s got thoughts about which team they match up best against in the next round. Guess what? To borrow a phrase used by several players inside the victorious postgame locker room at Lincoln Financial Field, they “don’t give a f***.” Not because they’re being dismissive of fans or media, but because they understand that, in the playoffs, the bottom line is all that matters when faced with win-or-go-home stakes. And while the offense had its struggles against Green Bay, the defense was once again dominant, a sign The Philadelphia Inquirer’s Jeff McLane considers auspicious for the Eagles’ Super Bowl chances. Listen to his insights from the Eagles’ postseason opener, and analysis of the team’s rematch with the LA Rams. Also, breakout rookie cornerback Cooper DeJean joins Jeff for his latest “Pick Six” interview, and talks about growing up in a tiny midwest town, only to get to know WNBA star Caitlin Clark when she and DeJean overlapped at the University of Iowa. Plus, Jeff speaks with Eagles free-agents-to-be Milton Williams and Zack Baun about the excitement of the present, and uncertainty of their respective futures. 00:00 The Eagles' “IDGAF” mindset 04:42 Defense shines vs. Packers 15:15 What’s next for Milton Williams, Zack Baun, and other free-agents-to- be? 23:03 “Pick Six” with Cooper DeJean 31:07 Previewing the Rams unCovering the Birds is a production of The Philadelphia Inquirer and KYW Newsradio Original Podcasts.
