As if this week wasn't dumb enough both Sean McVay and Sean McDermott both showed their cards about why they think the Tush Push needs to go. The real reasoning? They just don't like it. That's it. That's the wwhhhhhholllllle argument. What a bunch of losers. I announce the winner of the Twitter giveaway on today's episode, woo hoo: https://x.com/J…

Can you come up with 24 teams that would want to ban the Tush Push? I couldn't. But I do think you could convince at least 5 teams to say yes! Also, how would you feel about trading Jahan Dotson to the Packers? Let's get it into it.

I've been deep in the Pepe Silvia mode, chain-smoking and piecing together where the Eagles mail's is going. Grab your coffee and tinfoil hats, because we're diving into the Eagles' NBA-style offseason strategy. 11 trade partners, mainly in the AFC and a reminder that the future RT tackle of the Eagle might be on the roster already. I'd Rather Be W…

AJ Dillion, Josh Usche, and Adoree Jackson... not that exciting right? Have no fear, the draft is near and it's something the Eagles have nailing which is a lot different the last time the Eagles won a Super Bowl. I also get into why I think the Commanders made the biggest mistake of the off-season by trading for Tunsil. I'd Rather Be Watching the …

WHOA! Didn't see CJGJ getting traded. What are the Eagles going to do next? I think they might go after Anthony Richardson now that Kenny Pickett is in Cleveland.

Howie is PAYING out properly.... so where is this going? Let's try and figure out together! I am getting us started by suggested something really dumb and maybe a big surprise might be Tee Higgins since the Bengals have no problem fucking up something really good. AND Slay/CJGJ was pretty funny and it also touched small nerve for me so I have to ca…

Welcome to Watching the Birds! Name change is mainly because no one was able to pronounce Bell and The Birdmen in the first place, and I never really loved the name. Same show, different name, and it's what we do! We're just watching the Birds. Today we chat about Slay's "cut", Deebo to the Commanders, the new QB coach, and a lot more! Plus the tra…

BARCHARD BOMB: It looks like 2 teams are prepared to trade for Dallas Goedert if he can't get an extension done with the Eagles. __________________ Join us in the Discord: https://discord.gg/y455KDRYnC Barchard on Twitter: https://x.com/JohnBarchard __________________ I'd Rather Be Watching The Birds hats are back!

So what do you want the Eagles to look like in 2025? Barchard gets into AJ Brown's interview from Million Dollarz Worth of Game and why he doesn't believe the Eagles are going to be able to rely on Saquon as much in 2025. And of course we found out the the Green Bay Packers are trying to ban the tush push this season, which is hilarious cause there…

I understand why people want to jump out and say the (very obvious) hiring of Kevin Patullo is another Brian Johnson 2.0, and while that's a possibility I don't think 2025 has a chance to reach 2023 levels. That's just overreacting out of pure fear. Patullo isn't here to be the offensive mind, this is Jalen's offense. Join us in the Discord: https:…

Jalen Hurts is a Super Bowl champion and it broke everyone's brain. I LOVE IT LOL. Don't force let the media force you into heading to the offseason right now. Keep enjoying what just happened!

Let's kill these fucking guys.By John Barchard

Barchard thinks the national media is so obsessed with the Chiefs three-peat that they are afraid to say the Eagles defense is better than the Chiefs offense. They are going to see it on Sunday. PLUS: Barchard believes the Eagles have a huge leg up in the negotiations for Myles Garrett, who recently announced that he requested a trade from the Brow…

Fuck Josh HarrisBy John Barchard

Don't let anyone tell you that wasn't an amazing win. Saquon is Barry fucking Sanders, why are questioning the passing game when he runs like most teams throw? Join us in the Discord: https://discord.gg/y455KDRYnC Barchard on Twitter: https://x.com/JohnBarchardBy John Barchard

The Eagles are in great shape for the divisional round and that's what we should be talking about, but we are still back to "Jalen/Nick are holding this team back." Couldn't be further from the truth in Barchard's mind. The Fuck You Tour rolls on! Join us in the Discord: https://discord.gg/y455KDRYnC Barchard on Twitter: https://x.com/JohnBarchard …

If you have any questions left about this Eagles team, fuck you. LETS GET HYPED UP!!By John Barchard

Are you firing Nick if the Eagles get bounced in the Wild Card round? John thinks so. PLUS... OF COURSE I'M MAD THEY AREN'T LETTING SAQUON GO FOR IT LOL. Go Birds.

QB2 is always going to be a tough role to fill while Jalen Hurts is QB1. Kenny Pickett will probably have a better game on Sunday, and he's probably a bad choice for the Eagles offense that really doesn't have a system. ALL THAT PLUS: Saquon vs Dickerson has got me super pumped for the next two games. TAILGATE TOMORROW: https://x.com/philatticus/st…

Barchard is back on the bed for this show, exhausted by the holidays and the drama every week of everyone trying to find something wrong with the Eagles team. Is there a stink in the Eagles locker room that we just can't smell as fans? Plus... the best way to beat this Eagles offense is not shutting down Saquon Barkley. It's making sure AJ Brown do…

VICTORY MONDAY! Live from MaGerk's in Horsham Barchard, Barney from the Discord, and Chase_U all give their quick beer flavored thoughts on the Eagles beating the Steelers on Sunday. Hurts is just another coach on the field and that's why they win. All that and more! Join us in the Discord: https://discord.gg/y455KDRYnC Barchard on Twitter: https:/…

We can finally move on to the Steelers, thank god. Barchard took a look at Fangio's defenses throughout the years when he went up against Russell Wilson and he feels amazing about the defense this week. Wilson being 6-0 vs the Birds is true, but its also a bullshit stat. PLUS: Russell Wilson vs Jalen Hurts is happening for the first time since we d…

Today, Jeffery Lurie sold 8% of the Eagles to 2 family investment groups and the Birds got a nice cool $8.3 billion dollar evaluation in the process. That means there is an influx of cashing coming in and The Linc is in need of some serious renovations as it is hosting the World Cup in 2026. Barchard also thinks the Eagles have a new stadium in min…

The Eagles won, Jalen played like crap, AJ Brown politely reinforced that Jalen played like crap cause he was wide open all game, Brandon Graham then got kinda mad at AJ Brown for voicing the correct opinion based on a question that was asked of him, which is why Barchard is doing his podcast from his bed with a coffee just to calm down. Join us in…

Ahead of the Panthers game, Barchard gets into why he believes the best thing that Jalen Hurts and Nick Sirianni have done this season was to get out of the way of Saquon Barkley and Vic Fangio. Hasn't Saquon and Vic better than both of them this season? Join us in the Discord: https://discord.gg/y455KDRYnC Subscribe to Raw Room here: https://www.y…

I hope you have your dancing shoes on because all Barchard can think about is the Eagles playing the Lions in the NFCCG!! We're dancing, singing, and praising Vic Fangio and Saquon Barkley because figuring out why this Eagles team is so special shouldn't be that complicated. John shaved his head right after the Birds beat the Ravens lol: https://ww…

Saquon Barkley has done something that very few running backs are able to do. He makes everyone around him better. John Barchard is finally back with thoughts on Saquon and goes into why we have missed on what Nick Sirianni does best which isn't X's and O's obviously. He's just willing to play the dummy. Be sure to jump in the Discord! Join us in t…

Is there another lazy Sunday victory coming up once again at 1p vs the Bengals? Do you think the Eagles would let go of Jordan Davis if it meant they could get a premier pass rusher in a trade? Is there a tempo offense that can exist with lots of play action passes and a fullback on the field for 10 straight plays? John Barchard and Stan from the D…

Wins aren't always wins, and there was no better example of that than the Browns game on Sunday. Lane Johnson called this offense "constipated" and that makes a lot of sense to me now. Nick Sirianni needs to take a shit, and he can't figure out how to do it. Be sure to jump in the Discord! Join us in the Discord: https://discord.gg/y455KDRYnC Follo…

John let's out his frustration about what he thinks this season is all about, who is going to leave at the end of the year? Nick or Jalen?

BGN Radio was without a doubt created the Eagles podcasting environment that we hear and see today. But back in 2013, it was a much different time with lots of corporate greed, drama, and unfair pay.

I didn't want to come on with a negative slant this week, and I think I still found some optimism for the defensive rookies, but there is no way Nick Sirianni is coming to back to this team next year. The press conference from Nick on Wednesday was astoundingly alarming to me. He described why he kicked a FG instead of going for it on 4th down vs t…

Vic Fangio is going to leave Philadelphia a legend, and there is still a ways to go personnel wise to make that happen with the front 7. John breaks down why this is going to be a special unit as long as Howie keeps letting Vic pick the groceries, since Roseman doesn't seem to be that great at finding what he needs. But Roseman certainly found what…

EAGLES ARE 1-0 and I am little disappointed in you. You were about to bail on Jalen Hurts this year until you started watching the 1p games on Sunday, weren't you? I KNEW IT! Jalen played terrible and it should have cost them the game. I promise you it's okay to say that out loud! In this episode I get into why I am so confident in Jalen moving for…

In an offseason where everyone has tried to scare you about the Eagles, Jalen Hurts, and anything else they can find to show you why it's going to be a bad season. John Barchard is back this week to tell you to enjoy this ride because he thinks it's about to become petty as this Eagles team get back to Super Bowl form. AND we get personal about wha…

After one preseason game John Barchard's biggest overreaction was that Kenny Pickett just doesn't seem like a QB2 that you can go win you games. Kenny was a 2 year starter who didn't look that much different than Tanner Mckee!! That's a problem. ALSO: Would you welcome Hasson Reddick back after now asking for a trade from the Jets? AND: Tim McManus…

John Barchard breaks down why he believes Kellen Moore's offense will unlock the true potential of Jalen Hurts in 2024. No more hoping that AJ gets open in time, we are on to three step drops and pistol formations! It's time once again for Jalen Hurts to MVP in 2024.By John Barchard

John Barchard chimes in about the much talked about mandatory minicamp press conferences between Jalen Hurts and Nick Sirianni. Nick and Jalen don't need to get a long, they need to make more money and win football games. There are countless examples of players and personnel not getting along and winning Super Bowls together. PLUS: John urges Jeffe…

John Barchard is back wants us all to accept that Nick Sirianni can be a puppet for the front office and great coach at the same time. PLUS: More likely, Kellen Moore is here to help Nick or Kellen is here to take Nick's job? AND: and ESP update, John got a call from Spike Eskin.By John Barchard

John goes after Brian Baldinger for calling Jordan Davis fat and lazy this past season and inserts himself back into the Kyle Hamilton debates. PLUS: Why the hell did Howie Roseman go with Sean Desai and Matt Patricia in 2023? Was it just to ensure Vic Fangio comes back for this season? John seems to think so!…

WE'RE BACK FOR THE START OF EAGLES OTA! We have one question: Why does Eliot Shorr-Parks STILL remain silent getting called out from DeSean Jackson? John Barchard rants on why he thinks it happening and more!By John Barchard

We back and we aren't going anywhere! More news on the way but I am not letting this ESP vs DeSean Jackson feud go lol.By John Barchard

The Cowboys choked at the end of the game to give our Eagles a win to go into the bye week and keep the best record in the NFL. Despite the injuries and lack of major plays on the defensive side, Jalen Hurts has been making a great case for MVP throughout 9 weeks.By John Barchard
