Tush push(es) saved us IDK if we'll have that next year. It's too hard to officiate. Assume it will be gone after this year

Refs definitely missed some false starts on us that would have negated the TD and a first down…then I don’t think Hurts fumbled but also can’t say for sure the KC defender didn’t take it away either on that final tush push got lucky it just wasn’t clear

We need to get better with jumbo sets in the goal line ridiculous that Saquon is getting hit 5 yards in the backfield on a handoff when we have a FB and OL blocking….

Great play by Chris Jones but still ridiculous and it’s consistent that we are terrible at run blocking in the goal line little to no push…

When we do get decent blocks we see Saquon gain 9-10 yards and score tds like in the first qtr good blocks Saquon got tot he 2nd level easy TD

Hell even the tush push been iffy…. KC stopped it twice out of 4 attempts can’t even get a single yard…

I gotta believe the WRs aren't getting schemed open

BUT it is only week 2

MUKUBA mvp of the game doesn’t get that int plus 41 yards not sure we win this game

Teams are learning how to counter it

Makes it worse is we had false starts that weren’t called on two of those attempts and still almost didn’t get the yardage we needed

Is AJ brown healthy 100% just doesn’t seem like he is playing as physical as he usually does

Anyone else feel as though the game is getting harder to watch? I don't know how the guys can get going, there's no rhythm to the game anymore. Feel as tho it's a commercial with a few plays in between - if we're lucky. Going to try Sky Sports again. As for the game, haven't digested it. Seemed like too much handing it off to Saquan on 3rd and long and AJ underutilized. DeJean and Makuba so good.

Definitely need to find ways to take some deep shots down the field…. Feels like we run way too many of those screens plays…. Saquon in motion jet pass or Smith on a screen nothing past like 5 yards until it’s 3rd and long and then defense knows it’s a pass and we can’t protect long enough for those plays to develop

Hell we had some 2nd and short opportunities use a play action take a deep shot doesn’t even have to connect just keep the defense on there toes.

Feels like teams just crowd the box and LoS since all our throws on these short dump offs or we run the ball

Q got torched on that play... not sure #80 was that wide open all game

Blankenship got sucked over in the crosser and Q tried to cover for it all. Which he did a fantastic job of. Actually thought he ripped the ball nicely and it touched the ground. Incomplete pass.

Some BS officiating going on. We had to get past the line by a clear yard it felt like for them to call it.

Was always my biggest complaint with the night games especially.

That bobble by Kelce for the pick was HUGE

That Mukaba INT and the DeVonta Smith reception on 3rd & 10 were my keys to the game.

I was commenting to my kid that in the 1st quarter they didn't have a commercial until the Eagles scored their TD

They sure made up for it the rest of the game though

The net's fuming about the tush push tonight, think it's seeing the final year.

Patullo being overcautious is going to cost. Without our opposing teams' mistakes so far, we could be 0-2. He's got to open up the passing game. Fangio's winning these games.

Hurts got it both times

I agree...the second time we had a false start not called. And another one later not called.

So after the " ref guy who chimes in" said..

" im done with the rush push"

Now we can see the path that they are going to take to get rid of the play.

They can't use " injury" they can't use " it just doesn't look like a football play"

I think they will use " we just can't officiate the play correctly " and they will use this game... 1. they couldn't see Hurts score... 2 they let us false start twice .. and 3 they will say that they couldn't tell if Hurts fumbled at the end.

This is the reason they will give. Watch how they allow us to false start a few more obvious times, just to make it seem like they can't see it in real time.

Im on board with you with the league wanting to get rid of it. I think this is how they do it

Got away with two massive false starts on the tush push on the TD then on that first down run…. League will no doubt be cracking down on those false starts soon

That's the excuse they will use to get rid of the play

You connect on both those deeps shots that’s 14 points

Didn't they connect on a deep shot right on the same drive at the end?

The WRs don't draw coverage the same way at the goal line...everyone on defense is right in the box. We don't use a quick hitter, it all takes time to get the ball to the RB.

The play he made on Brown when he came across the field around the rub route on 3rd and 1.. that was huge. Reminded me of DeJean on Chase last year.

Some real nice additions to our defense the last couple of years. I love how that allowed Fangio to use a bunch of different blitzes.

Baun, Campbell, DeJean and Makuba allow him to do so many different things due to their versatility...beautiful to watch.

I thought we dominated on it today...we just used it with the idea if using it again on the next play.... idk if they stopped it.. when it's a yard and a half ,the first one sets up the next one

To me...stopping it would = a turnover. If we run it in 4 scenarios... but take 6 plays to get 4 first downs/ scores...then to me it works every time. Because if I was on defense, I would feel like we didn't stop it.
