Former Philadelphia Eagles greats DeSean Jackson and LeSean McCoy to launch new podcast called The 25/10 Show

Podcasting is the new wave in the sports media world, and two former Philadelphia Eagles are reuniting as teammates.

LeSean ‘Shady’ McCoy and DeSean Jackson are teaming up for a new podcast, The 25/10 Show.

McCoy and Jackson officially announced during a Thursday sit-down with 94WIP in Philadelphia.

The podcast has been described as an intersection of sports, culture, and entertainment. The name comes from the duo’s Eagles jersey numbers.

The 25/10 Podcast will have a new show every week and will be available on YouTube, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and all other audio streaming platforms.

Bills’ Josh Allen ‘hopeful’ Stefon Diggs sticks around

Allen speaking to Shady on the topic of Diggs:

Bills quarterback Josh Allen has confided in a former teammate that he is optimistic that receiver Stefon Diggs will not be moved this offseason.

It just so happens that the FS1 cameras were on Allen at the time as well.

Allen, speaking with analyst and ex-teammate LeSean McCoy, said he’s downplaying and speculation that Diggs might be skipping town this summer.

“I don’t really think about that,” Allen said. “I still feel like there’s still work to do and special things that we can accomplish.”

While early in the offseason, headlines have surrounded Diggs once again since some of his interviews at the 2024 Pro Bowl.

During an chat with NFL Network, Diggs was asked about his future. He could have simply said that, yes, he will be back with the Bills next season but that was not the case.

“I don’t know, as far as the money and that type of stuff,” Diggs said. “I can’t control none of that.”

It’s not a request to be traded, but on the other hand, it’s not a glowing review either.

Moose Muhammad’s highlight reel game against ACU has not gone unnoticed

Moose Muhammad popped back up on the scene in major way last weekend, and the main stream media is impressed

If anyone knows highlight plays, it’s NFL veteran and Super Bowl winner LeSean “Shady” McCoy. He couldn’t help but notice the performance that Moose Muhammad put on against the ACU Wildcats and named him the Speak on FS1 “Crazy Work” winner of the week.

It’s been a curious year for the junior wide receiver following what seemed to be a breakout season in 2022. Leading into last week’s game Moose only had 159 yards and one touchdown through nine games. Well, the dynamic receiver put his elite hands and athletic ability on full display again to the tune of 104 yards and a Sports Center top-ten highlight-worthy catch.

With the shakeup of Jimbo Fisher being fired and with eligibility left it will be interesting to see what Moose decides to do in the future. His talent is undeniable and is one catch away from a specular play.

LeSean McCoy defends Bills’ QB Josh Allen against haters (video)

Shady defends Josh:

Former Bills running back LeSean McCoy still has big respect for his ex-teammate Josh Allen.

Allen had a brutal game against the Jets in Week 1. His four turnovers helped the Jets upset the Bills, 22-16, in overtime.

After the loss, Allen has taken his bumps in the media. The QB himself even said he needs to cut out the turnovers.

McCoy admitted he thinks Allen needs to do that, too. But he also backed Allen and did so with stats as well.

“My opinion hasn’t changed,” McCoy said. “I would put him as a top-three quarterback in this league.”

For McCoy’s full Allen defense, see the attached FS1 clip below:

Every season-opening game for Eagles since 2010

With Philadelphia heading to New England to face the Patriots on Sunday, we look back at every season opener for the #Eagles since 2010.

Detroit defeated Kansas City and the NFL’s opening matchup, and it’s officially game week for the Eagles and 29 other teams around the NFL.

Philadelphia will hit the road for a matchup against the New England Patriots at Gillette Stadium, and it’ll be a celebration of retired quarterback, Tom Brady.

Over the years, the Eagles have had great success in Week One, and a strong start on Sunday could again catapult the team to postseason success in late January.

With preparation for New England underway, here’s a recap of every season opener since 2010.

Ex-Eagle LeSean McCoy throws major shade at Giants QB Daniel Jones

LeSean McCoy, who spent years being hilariously trolled by Osi Umenyiora, threw major shade at New York Giants QB Daniel Jones this week.

Former Philadelphia Eagles running back LeSean McCoy has never been a fan of the New York Giants and throws shade in their direction every opportunity he gets.

That trend continued this week.

During an appearance on FS1’s Speak for Yourself, McCoy addressed the Saquon Barkley contract situation and in doing so, took aim at quarterback Daniel Jones, completely disparaging the 26-year-old.

“Who is Daniel Jones, though?” McCoy asked as the panel compared DJ to a house, saying he will appreciate over time. “Daniel Jones isn’t even a condo. He’s like a garage. You can rent a garage out.

“Are we really going to sit here and act like Daniel Jones is this superstar quarterback? You’re supposed to get better and better each year, right? I can’t even say he’s getting better each year. . . You will never see Daniel Jones on any commercials. When a defense comes to play the Giants, you really think they’re talking about Daniel Jones?”

Shady must have missed DJ’s Buffalo Wild Wings commercial, but we digress…

Earlier in his career, defenses didn’t focus heavily on Jones. And even during the first half of last season, much of the focus was on stopping running back Barkley, and rightfully so. But during the second half of last season that all changed and defenses did begin to focus much more heavily on DJ.

“Last year he unleashed. We all loved it. When he runs, it builds confidence. He’s legit fast. I started to see later in the season, teams were putting spies on Daniel Jones,” former Giants linebacker Jaylon Smith said recently.

McCoy obviously did little research before making his anti-Jones comments but he’s likely still sour from being trolled by Osi Umenyiora over the years.

Best Eagles player to wear every jersey number

From the 0 all the way to 99, here is the best Philadelphia #Eagles player to wear every jersey number.

[mm-video type=video id=01h3zm7nd4dpb3d9m4qt playlist_id=none player_id=none image=https://images2.minutemediacdn.com/image/upload/video/thumbnail/mmplus/01h3zm7nd4dpb3d9m4qt/01h3zm7nd4dpb3d9m4qt-3ccfb89314c0e3a0a610f26d8149e942.jpg]

Some of the best players in NFL history have worn a Philadelphia Eagles jersey at some point during their careers.

Our friends at Touchdown Wire recently took a look at the best players in NFL (and AFL) history to wear every jersey number.

That inspired the Eagles Wire to take take a look at Philadelphia’s history and track down the best player to wear each respective jersey number.

From jersey No. 1 to No. 99, here is the best Eagles player to wear every jersey number:

You have $15, build the best offensive unit in Eagles’ history

Can you build the greatest Philadelphia offense of all time? With a $15 budget, try to assemble the best QB, WR, RB, TE combination in Eagles history

[mm-video type=video id=01h3zm7nd4dpb3d9m4qt playlist_id=none player_id=none image=https://images2.minutemediacdn.com/image/upload/video/thumbnail/mmplus/01h3zm7nd4dpb3d9m4qt/01h3zm7nd4dpb3d9m4qt-3ccfb89314c0e3a0a610f26d8149e942.jpg]

Philadelphia has had some all-time great offensive players, but what five players at multiple positions could give fans a dynamic unit on offense?

The Bird’s official Twitter account created a frenzy when they asked fans to build the ultimate roster.

The goal is to create the ultimate Eagles offensive unit with a $15 budget. Your team must consist of a quarterback, two wide receivers, a running back, and a tight end or fullback.

LeSean McCoy could be hinting he’s Shannon Sharpe’s Undisputed replacement

Hmmm!

We have nothing official to go off at the moment when it comes to who’s going to take over on Undisputed now that Shannon Sharpe is out.

But among the names being thrown around is that of LeSean McCoy. The former NFL running back is already a part of FS1, so it wouldn’t be that much of a stretch to get him to face off with Skip Bayless every day. A report from Front Office Sports indicated Shady was a contender for the spot.

Now? We’ve got a couple of tweets to examine from McCoy that might be telling us it’s happening.

There was this after Sharpe signed off:

And this one, responding to Bayless:

Hmmm!

LeSean McCoy gives some candid thoughts on Bills legend Jim Kelly (video)

Welp… we tried to look at both sides here…

Well now…

Former Buffalo Bills running back LeSean McCoy might have put his stock with Bills Mafia in a little bit of jeopardy.

Hall of Famer and legendary Bills quarterback Jim Kelly recently dished some thoughts on the current state of the team. He said that current QB, Josh Allen, “can’t do it all himself.”

During a discussion on “Up & Adams” on Fan Duel TV, McCoy did the same. His thought initially began in a very interesting manner.

McCoy commented that Kelly “just likes to talk.” Fair enough, a lot of former players for teams that are beloved do talking.

Plus, Kelly was actually interviewed when he made his statement, so a reporter asked him a question, likely about the current team, leading to the statement.

Then “Shady” went a bit off the rails.

The topic McCoy was speaking on was based on the Bills offense, which is why Kelly was mentioned.

Instead of going back on topic, McCoy then decided to note how Kelly lost four Super Bowls with the Bills… ouch.

Playing devil’s advocate for both: McCoy has former teammates still on the team–not only that, McCoy played with running backs that previously started for the the Bills such as Devin Singletary and Frank Gore.

Maybe he was just trying to stand up for his guys a bit?

In the same light, Kelly naturally would respect the heck out of the work fellow Hall of Famer Thurman Thomas did when they were with the Bills. Thomas was his longtime running back and the two are still close friends which fans often see at Bills home game.

That’s probably what Kelly was leaning into.

Regardless, make your own decision. Here’s the clip you’ve come for:
