Philadelphia at Detroit (1 Viewer)

[sporthenry]

Thought it was obvious it touched Kelce but that never stopped refs. 

 

[Insein]

Well defense.

 

[renesauz]

That sucks....just can't get a perfect angle, but I'd bet anything an OOB player touched it

 

[Power Monster]

Nice time for A pick 6 

 

[Insein]

How bout the ####### hold on graham... AGAIN! All damn game no call. 

 

[modogg]

doesn't matter, really shouldn't be relying on a guy out of bounds. I'm hoping Pederson learns from this

 

[Mister CIA]

What are the odds <Philly> invests a 1st-3rd rounder on RB next year?

 

[JaxBill]

If they hold them on 3rd, 4 down territory or really long FG?

 

[Insein]

Sack here. Game over.

 

[Long Ball Larry]

i hate it. playing not to lose is not a smart way to play. Det defense is gassed and you should strive for 1st downs and moving the ball toward a FG so you are up by more than a FG

I don't think it was playing not to lose.  They passed on the last third and short.  I think it was a good set and a good way to try to get 2 yards.  Definitely difficult to decide between run and pass.

 

[Insein]

Par for the ####### course. Penalty after the play.

 

[dallas428]

Great game....down to the wire...

 

[renesauz]

WTF was that call? There was nothing late there

 

[Insein]

What roughing!!!!!!!

 

[sporthenry]

Not that it matters but that's unnecessary roughness?

But it clock stopped after that penalty which saved them 40 seconds?

 

[Long Ball Larry]

3rd straight excruciating game against detroit.

 

[renesauz]

Eagles with a huge lead in total yards too :(

 

[Long Ball Larry]

Detroit too conservative

 

[Ghost Rider]

These guys are dumb. No, you do not let them score.  You'd need a TD to win.  Having to come back and win with a FG with no timeouts is much more preferable. 

 

[GoBirds]

UGH hate I can't see this, damn hurricane.

 

[renesauz]

but 13 penalties for 106 vs 2 for 18

 

[renesauz]

Wentz will drive them down for a game winning FG

 

[unckeyherb]

Sack.  Great that we had all TOs there.  Refreshing.

now score!

 

[Thunderlips]

Well, this is what the Delaware Valley wanted to see....Wentz making a last minute drive to win a game.  

 

[Insein]

but 13 penalties for 106 vs 2 for 18

Eagles haven't been perfect today but Jesus Christ you're telling me the Lions, the 2nd most penalized team in the league, had 2 penalties all day? #### you refs.

 

[unckeyherb]

Well, this is what the Delaware Valley wanted to see....Wentz making a last minute drive to win a game.  

Yup.  Could be legendary

 

[sporthenry]

Sack.  Great that we had all TOs there.  Refreshing.

Having all TOs on the road with rookie QB is impressive. 

 

[JaxBill]

Luckily Pederson didn't learn clock management from Andy

 

[Mister CIA]

 

[Thunderlips]

Yup.  Could be legendary

Yup. It was. 

 

[unckeyherb]

Well, ####

 

[Power Monster]

Lot of clock

 

[renesauz]

ugh...didn't need it all on one play

That said...no excuse for Agholar there, at the very worst you NEVER let the defender catch it.

 

[fred_1_15301]

Interesting play call

 

[Power Monster]

Gamble does not pay off. Detroit looks to seal it now.

 

[modogg]

Yup.  Could be legendary

 i know people want to talk about penalties but there are a few reasons they lost this. not a great decision by Wentz there against a top CB like Slay

 

[Insein]

Stupid. 

 

[Insein]

Oh look a flag.

 

[modogg]

ugh...didn't need it all on one play

That said...no excuse for Agholar there, at the very worst you NEVER let the defender catch it.

absolutely no way you can blame Agholar on that.

 

[GoBirds]

UGH....he finally did something wrong.

 

[renesauz]

Oh well....we were due for a loss, and this was a trap game. Eagles will crush the Redskins next week

 

[sporthenry]

Think you could have picked them apart. Have a feeling an underneath guy was open with all that time. 

 

[unckeyherb]

Not the worst call.  Come out blazing and hope for a PI.  I don't love it, but what are ya gonna do.  He had to throw one sometime.

 

[renesauz]

absolutely no way you can blame Agholar on that.

meh.....not really blame I guess, but would prefer a WR MUG the defender on a ball like that in a situation like that

 

[Insein]

Eagles were not sharp but no way there was that much of a discrepancy in penalties.

 

[renesauz]

Eagles were not sharp but no way there was that much of a discrepancy in penalties.

Agreed. All in all it's hardly disastrous. Terrific learning opportunities in this

 

[Insein]

Agreed. All in all it's hardly disastrous. Terrific learning opportunities in this

Definitely learning moments for everyone. Coaches included. They had a chance to close this out and got conservative.

 

[Long Ball Larry]

I guess this is what they call growing pains.

 

[Long Ball Larry]

Having all TOs on the road with rookie QB is impressive. 

But Charles Davis said that he should have called the to on 2nd and 4 in the red zone earlier instead of taking the delay of game.

Thought that too and it was 3rd and 10 that turned into 3rd a d 15.
