I got the chance to sit down with former Eagles all-pro cornerback, Bobby Taylor, to talk to him about this year's edition of the team. I also had to ask him about his Notre Dame Fighting Irish, and their 2-2 start. We finished off the interview talking about his partnership with GENYOUth and the NFL FLAG-In-Schools program.

There's a lot to say about this year's Eagles team, who are 4-0 and looking like the best team in the NFC. As the final undefeated team, questions are coming up on whether or not they can go undefeated, especially considering they boast one of the easiest schedules in the NFL.

I asked Taylor if he thought the Eagles could pull off the rare feat.

"I think the Eagles will go undefeated... on Sunday in Arizona. Then, we can go on to the next game. I know it sound cliché, but even though I'm retired, I'm still one of the guys in the locker room, so to speak. To really get to that point, they really have to stay laser focused."

He's been out of the league for almost 20 years, but that media training is still ingrained in him!

Even with that being the case, I tried to lure it out of him. FanDuel has odds set on the Eagles going undefeated at 30/1. So I proposed the question to him. Would he be willing to bet $1 on it with a chance to win $30? He still wouldn't budge.

"Probably not." He went on to say; "You tell me if you make that bet, and we'll see how it ends up toward the end of the season."

Check out the full interview above, where he gives his thoughts on Notre Dame football, Jalen Hurts, and the passionate Philadelphia fanbase. He also gives us all the details about his partnership with
GENYOUth and the NFL FLAG-In-Schools program.
