From the episode

Looking at the upcoming schedule for the Eagles with Tanner McKee at quarterback, we've got Dallas this week, Washington, the New York Giants by week and week 10, then Pittsburgh, Dallas, again, Arizona, Indianapolis, Seattle, Houston, San Francisco in championship week. Only two of these matchups read as difficult. That would be Pittsburgh and Seattle. But if you take a little deeper into the surface, under the surface, right, there's a little problem that is popping up. Joey Porter Jr. is looking like he's clamping down wide receiver ones.

STACKED’s take

NeutralMatchup

Eagles schedule mostly favorable, but Joey Porter Jr.'s emergence as shutdown corner poses risk.

The Eagles' upcoming schedule with Tanner McKee features mostly favorable matchups; only Pittsburgh and Seattle read as difficult on paper, though deeper analysis reveals Joey Porter Jr. is emerging as a shutdown corner who clamps down on opposing WR1s, which could present a challenge for Smith in certain matchups.
