Chatwin Reacts: Minnesota Vikings vs. Philadelphia Eagles | 2023 Week 2 Game Highlights 

Record field goal was 66 yards by Justin Tucker, ill be shocked to ever see that record broken

"Blue flag" or bean bags are used to mark the spot of the ball during a change of possession situation .

The Phili wide receiver Smith and quarterback Hurts were both team mates at Alabama, and Swift played at rivals Georgia. Georgia and Alabama played against each other in the 2018 national championship with those three and many other now NFL players. I won't give away the result, but highly recommend reaction to that game. Also, I bet there is some great banter between those three in the locker room talking about their college days.

D'Andre Swift was traded to the Eagles from the Lions. Kid is from Philly so his whole family was at the game. He’s also only 5’9! WR AJ Brown is another Eagles to look up! He was also an All-American baseball player & was drafted by the Padres. When he signed with the Eagles, his contract stipulates he can’t play professional baseball (he wanted to play both while still with the Titans)

The play near the end with the kick was an onside kick. Essentially the kicker kicks the ball short and near the ground, and the goal is for the kicking team to recover the ball, but only after it has travelled 10 yards (its just a rule, otherwise the kicker would kick the ball directly to his own team every time). Considering the fact that you need to kick the ball at least 10 yards and basically to the other team, the chances of recovering the ball are slim, I don't know the exact math but id give it a 10% chance of success. With these odds, it is almost always attempted in desperation, as you could see the Vikings had a minute on the clock and needed the ball back to score. Very very rarely will a team attempt an onside kick in the middle of a game, and it is only done to try and catch the receiving team off guard. Again however, failure to successfully execute the play results in excellent starting field position for the team, so teams almost never do this unless it is the only way they can win.

9:47 Yeah you and me both dude, Swift was on my fantasy football team every time Hurts got the touchdown afterwards instead had me furious lol

Justin Jefferson is someone on the Vikings to watch out for top 3 receiver in the league he’s number 18 and he almost broke the record for the most receiving yards in a single season last year

8:38 it is a turn over, Philly ball at the 25 yardline.

Watch Jason Kelce, 63 Center Philly. he will be in the Hall of Fame

Keep an eye on Jalen hurts, Jason kelce, lane Johnson, davonta Smith and aj brown, just on the offensive side to start with.. eagles 49ers chiefs lions and dolphins I think are gonna be the teams to really watch this year

If you want to do a weekly reaction series to get a nice recap of all the games I highly recommend This Week in Sportsball by UrinatingTree (you’ve reacted to him before, he’s very entertaining). He gives a dramatic/joke filled recap of every game and it’s honestly some of the most well produced NFL content on RU-vid. All the names and in-jokes may seem a little bit overwhelming at first but it’s actually a good way to learn the narratives surrounding players and teams. He posts them every Wednesday

Philadelphia has one of the more versatile offenses in the league. Minnesota played a defense that invited the run game...

14:50 Onside Kick. Exactly what you said, it's a late-game, low-probability desperation attempt to steal a possession. To qualify as a kick off the ball must go 10 yards downfield ie the yellow line.

2:26 They don't have to be put on the ground. The Ref blew the whistle which stopped the play. If they'd continued, they'd risk a foul.

I was there!! Go Birds 🦅

Not a good game with all the turn overs but keep an eye on the Vikings receiver Justin Jefferson #18. He is the real deal for future reference. 😁

Justin Jefferson on the Vikings for sure. He's started his career off as best as you can. As an Eagles fan after watching this game I would keep your eye on D'Andre Swift. We traded for him this past offseason and this game was his first one starting for us. He went off for 175 yards in his hometown. I think he will have a great season.

I'm a browns fan, but i'd recommend that its not a great time to root for them considering the recent addition of Deshaun Watson, if you'd like to do some research on your own about that situation. However, we do have some really great guys on the team, and my absolute favorites are Myles Garrett and Nick Chubb, who are consistently top 3, if not the best at their position.

That was a botched "on side " kick at the end which is an attempt to regain possession of the ball. The ball only needs to go 10 yards and then the team kicking off can pick it up.

If you want to see a REALLY good eagles game from last season, check out bills vs eagles, I think it was around week 11

Fumbling the ball into the end zone and then out of bounds is a turnover, so it's Philadelphia ball at the 20 yard line.

MIN 18 Justin Jefferson is a great WR. Kirk Cousins is a quality QB. They had a weak and injured OL to start the game, and then things got worse from there.

If you watch college football, I would suggest watching Alabama. They’ve been dominant for the past decades.

Justin Jefferson best WR in the game
