He looks old all of a sudden. Swiftly weakening the knees

With their sudden expansion/explosion into the sports betting world and their now close relationship with Vegas, the many terrible, game deciding penalties are starting to look suspicious. Some say that the NFL is completely clean and on the up and up. Others swear the whole thing is entirely scripted and the lure of Vegas money is too big a temptation to ignore. The shield doesn’t seem to mind the grumbling, as the revenue has also massively expanded. Sports betting has been good for the NFL. SPORTS betting…but the NFL isn’t a sport. It’s entertainment. As a matter of fact, betting on entertainment (like the WWE) is illegal in the US. So the obvious solution is to confront the NFL and tell them that unless they reclassify themselves as a sport, they cannot participate in sports betting. That should lead to more oversight/management of the refs to ensure unbiased game officiating. Just a Sat morning thought. I’m sure there are a million reasons why it won’t work, but I’m still feeling salty today, almost a week later. LFG BUFFALO!!

He’s good at exceeding low expectations. He’s terrible at meeting high expectations.

You’re right there. It’s just the feeling I got when we lined up in Shotgun after driving down the field, at will, with the running game. Their D looked completely gassed. I’d have been happy with a 4th and 1 play to end the game. Win or lose.

Yeah that would’ve changed the entire circumstances of the situation. Maybe your kid should be the HC 😅👍

My comment started out as sarcastic/sardonic but TBH, if he went for it, didn’t get it, if he said he knew the D wouldn’t hold up and determined this had the best odds of winning, I think we all would’ve nodded our heads, knowing he was probably right. I know we have 20/20 hindsight here, but as mentioned in previous posts, we’ve had 4 previous examples we could’ve looked at yesterday to make the call. The only thing our D is consistent with is folding when the game is on the line. Oh and how many Hail Mary’s do we have to fall victim to!? I was really hoping we’d run the ball down their throats for a few more plays before punching it in. VERY surprised by that call.

TBH, those refs essentially covered for the Eagles the entire 1st half. Hard to get pumped as a player when you know you will be held to a standard your opponent will be rewarded for not meeting.

Exactly! Once the D took the field, I just KNEW it would end the same way all the others did. I was praying for a tie. (Feel gross even typing that)

As soon as we kicked the FG, the game was over. Never once has our D made the game ending stop. If it has, I can’t recall when. We have better chance to win going for it on 4th and 10 on our own end of the field, hoping for a walk off TD drive than we would letting our D ever take the field needing a stop.

What’s the over/under on a penalty on the 1st play?

This is crazy how much the NFL is propping up the Eagles.

If you watch the play Kelsey literally headbutts the ground when he snaps the ball to make sure no one gets lower than him.

I like the concept of thinking of something new, but a lot of times, they hurry to the line and don’t allow the D the substitute.

Ummm did we just see a finger amputation? looked like his clean bone was sticking out 😬

Hmmmm I say let’s kick the tires on this one!

Screw it, hire the crew from Cover 1. That would be fresh and innovative 😁

Why did we not run that last drive again??

Hmmm so next drive we pass and punt/INT right? Just trying to figure out the pattern. I mean why keep doing something, just because it works 🤦‍♂️

That man is ALWAYS making plays!

Run the ball…touchdown… hmmm let’s try a few other things 🤮

If he’s on the sidelines, he’s directly approachable / confrontable by the players. I think he likes the distance / safety. Like a telephone tough guy. Shrinking violet face to face. He should be on the field with his guys. If he need aerial views, they can send them to his iPad.

Didn’t that coach’s halftime interview seem like he was throwing the O under the bus. Like he said, I did my job… Seemed kind of small…

Wtf happened to Kincaid?? I mean why are we not doing they anymore?

Actually I think his name is Mr. Pfizer 🤣🤣
