There was a lot to like in the Eagles week 1 win against Atlanta. The Eagles started off the Sirianni era on the right foot, dominating the Falcons 32-6. After every Eagles game, Zach Berman from The Athletic will join the John Kincade Show to discuss his takeaways from the game. One of the biggest takeaways from week 1 for Zach was the efficiency:

“The efficiency was my big question going into this season. I thought youd see dynamic plays but I didnt know if youd see the consistency.”

The locker room dynamic was another thing that Zach has noticed as he has covered the team. The teams mood this year as opposed to last;

“They genuinely like each other. Zach Ertz, who is a 9 year vet, said this is the most fun hes had coming to work.”

Zach also discussed the penalties and if the lack of a preseason for the starters might have had a hand in the sloppiness. Listen to the entire interview below
