eagles. the let's talk birds. what do we do next. >> i'm wearing my flyers button. >> that is all we got. >> well, barely. here's the crazy thing about this loss. most of the time in life when people say i had a pinch myself. they usually mean that for something really good. i could not believe that this was happening. i had to pin much myself. i found that to be going on all around the delaware valley yesterday, it was a negative way. people had to pin much themselves. they still cannot believe they lost that game on saturday. i still can't believe it. one game, one loss, and it changed everything. >> real quickly, desean jackson is the the guy, that beats us, basically, should chip in retrospect have let him go. >> oh, in he never should have let him go. i always thought that was. and chris, you know, jenny, you know, most eagles fans felt that way. even the eagles fans who did not like desean jackson were you none must in saying you you cannot let him walk for nothing. and they got absolutely nothing for him. it was a disaster move letting him go. it was a domino effect. it affect all of the other receivers, particularly riley cooper. it affect the running game. it affected everything. and this one loss on saturday, now effects everything. it is totally changed. >> what will we do for next year in terms for quarterback what will that situation. >> it will be nick foles. it is his job to lose. there is no way they can get mariot ta, i can't see how they will pull that off. i can't even sanchez will even be with the team. and as far as next year, you asked about quarterback, somebody is going to have to take some heat, for this loss on saturday and i think it is defensive coordinator billy davis. i do not expect him to be back next year. chip kelly is guy at the top. he will not go any where. billy davis is the guy gone. >> is the boom off the road, i guess you can say for chip. >> in doubt, it is. now first of all, he never call himself a genius and i took issue with anybody who did call him a genius. i was happy to have him here as a coach. you look at his overall record, but wow, you know, the way it is in life this one loss changes everything. and yeah, the broom is way off the road. now he has to work to get back, in the graces of the fans. >> no doubt. >> all right. >> bad ending to our season. big daddy, is what going on with
