94WIP Middays with Hugh Douglas and Joe Giglio

Reacting to comments from the YouTube live stream!

The 94 WIP Midday Show are reacting to news of Zack Wheeler keeping his rib that was removed during his thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) surgery. Also, there is more news around the NL East that certainly benefits the Phillies. Mets infielder Fransisco Lindor and Braves RP Spencer Schwellenbach are both dealing with injuries that will affect their respective teams.

Eliot Shorr-Parks joins the 94 WIP Midday Show as Decision Week rolls on. He says that it would be easy to convince the majority of team owners and coaches to trade for Jalen Hurts. He also says that it is an extremely tough question when asked if he wants A.J. Brown back on the Eagles in 2026. He also says that the QB play in the league is lower than it has been in a long time.

The 94 WIP Midday Show is evaluating what the Eagles might get in return if they were to trade A.J. Brown. Hugh Douglas says that the Eagles will certainly pick up the phone but will not be able to bring themselves to trade him. Joe Giglio would be shocked if the Eagles do not accept a first round pick for him mainly because his best playing days are behind him.

Jason Avant joins the 94 WIP Midday Show to discuss the Eagles offseason outlook. On the topic of A.J. Brown, Avant says that Brown is very unpredictable and has a personality that is hard to please. He says that he would get rid of Brown if money had nothing to do with the situation. He also says that it is entirely possible to win the Super Bowl without dynamic QB play. Avant was at first very confused with the Sean Mannion hiring.

The 94 WIP Midday Show are reacting to comments made by Phillies manager Rob Thompson after he said that the Phillies are in a better spot right now than they were at this time last year. Them failing to get Bo Bichette and then immediately pivoting back to JT Realmuto may show that the Phillies themselves don't even believe that. Hugh Douglas says that everyone had a part to play in the Eagles failure of an offense in 2025. Douglas and Joe Giglio get into a debate about whether or not A.J. Brown is a generational talent.

Hugh Douglas of the 94 WIP Midday Show is continuing to look at the A.J. Brown situation and speculate whether or not he will be back in 2026. He says that it is easy for us as fans to place blame on one individual and that everyone needs to be held accountable for the 2025 failures.

The 94 WIP Midday Show are continuing with Decision Week by asking if Eagles fans want A.J. Brown back next season. Joe Giglio does not, citing that he is not worth the headache anymore and is only happy when he gets the ball. He also says that A.J. only cares about himself. Hugh Douglas wants him back because he cares about the offense succeeding and was not wrong to say that the offense was dysfunctional last year.

From 'WIP Daily' (subscribe here): Joe Giglio takes a look at what the Eagles could possibly get in return for AJ Brown in a trade and believes the wide receiver's value actually went up after what we saw in the postseason.

The discussion dives into timing, strategy, and what’s best for Philly’s quarterback situation. The show then turns to the Phillies, with Devan Kaney saying the team has completely mishandled Nick Castellanos, and Giglio calling it childish and petty to keep him on the roster. The WIP Midday Show breaks down the front office missteps, clubhouse impact, and what fans should expect moving forward.
