Did you see Nick Foles play in his first game in 2017?  Minshew was a lot better on the road against a top 10 defense.  Are you an Eagle fan or just a Hurts fan?

Well I’ll say this, I can definitely see the Minshew v Foles comp more now. Minshew’s game today reminds me of the first Foles v Dallas game in 2013.

And Minshew might be playing about as well as Foles has been today.

Good call.

 

Bench everyone now.  See if you get more from the backups.  Tell them to enjoy their week off.

And then next week, everyone plays.  Doesn’t matter if they are hurting or not.

So frustrating, why the hell are we not running the ball? These young coaches outsmart themselves.  

That has to be the worst half of football we have had all year long. NOT good when we need this game for 2 reasons. 

 

 

who here remembers Kotite being 7-2? and not making the playoffs? 

This is worse, we were 13-1  13-1!!!!!!!!!!!! and we will be one and done, losing our last 4 games.  (Dallas/Saints/Ginats, and wild card rd in the playoffs)

this is a collapse of epic proportions....

 

 

Breathe a little.   Back away from the ledge.

Maybe this will be a good loss. Refocus on the ultimate goal

If we weren't dropping like flies, maybe.

Now, I'm not a coach. I'm not a current player. I never played in college.

But if our zone defense is CONTINUALLY getting shredded...maybe, just maybe, we should stop calling it every play.

Yup. People got on me when i said Gannon is way to slow to adjust what he is doing to what he needs to do. He does this almost every week. When it works in the first half it’s fine. However when you are getting destroyed for 2 quarters you can’t just sit there and give them whatever they want until you can make it to halftime to adjust. I’m guaranteeing we make an adjustment and look better. However giving half the game to do it is likely going to cost you the game. It’s ridiculous the saints have completed 15 of 16 passes

Rest him

yup this game was over when we decided to try and throw the ball all over the field instead of running it, and decided to just play soft zone defense the majority of the time.

We are playing to lose anyway.

They should sit Smith. Don't want him hurt

Pull all the fing starters

They made this abundantly clear by not playing their best player. It’s the NFL — the talent gap between these teams was never substantial. And as we can all see, we arent good right now.

2 minutes ago, Swoop said:

I don't, either. I really don't. 

We're playing a team that sucks against the run, with a backup QB. What's our solution? Bring in Scott and drop Minshew back repeatedly.

Just baffling.

Its an AR-outsmart myself kinda vibe

Hey look, it’s the two most knowledgeable football minds on this board. Certainly the only reason why reasonable minds were concerned about Minshew was because of a so-called affinity toward Hurts. Had nothing to do with the obvious issues Minshew exhibited against the Cowboys, of course.

At least we know you two like insulting and calling people names behind the safety of your smartphones. Oh and at least you got to quote the empty stats Minshew put up last week for a whole entire week too.

Please explain what about Minshew completing 60% for 355 yards 2 TD’s and 2 INT’s while rushing for 1 TD led you to believe he would be at 60% for 70 yards at halftime. 

There is always next week

I just hope that they can get on the right track.

You could just tell Minshew Smith is still in the game and he’ll continue ignoring him

1 more 3 and out and put Book in.

Get everybody ready for must win against NYG.

Andy Dalton 13-14 😄😄😄

Hell no don't pull the starters.  For what?  Everyone finishes out this game, F that.  

Apparently the entire team, coaches included, think theyve got everything wrapped up already.  So, no, Im not encouraging more of that.

Get out there and finish the game.

I told you guys before the game that Sanders was dinged and they weren’t going to run him.

Kinda like how they're ignoring the run
