  • Summary

  • With all due respect to the quarterback, maybe we should be spending more time talking about the other “Jalen” on the Philadelphia Eagles’ roster. For as up and down a performance as Jalen Hurts endured in the Eagles’ Divisional playoff matchup with the LA Rams, Jalen Carter proved an indomitable force, especially in crunch time. It’s hard to imagine his team surviving the nail-biter without him. In just his second year, Carter is becoming known as one of the top interior defensive linemen in the NFL. Should he be getting even more love? The Philadelphia Inquirer’s Jeff McLane puts the rising star’s season into context, and examines one of the most underrated aspects of his game. Plus, with Hurts and the passing attack continuing to struggle in the postseason, Jeff asks around to see if he can get a better sense of what the Eagles can do to right the ship. And be sure to check out the latest installment of our “Pick Six” interview series. This week, Jeff talks to Eagles defensive tackle Jordan Davis, who explains the origins of his ‘DJ Oreo’ nickname and the inspiration behind some of his dance moves. 00:00 The “other” Jalen, and his rising star 10:20 Can the passing game get on track?
