We gave up 13 seconds and the Hail Murray with a healthy roster. We've been giving up 3rd and long and 4th and long as long and McD and Frazier have been here. Injuries are completely unrelated to what's happening here. it's situational decision making that's the problem - not talent.

The same answers he did when they weren't. This isn't a week 10 2022 problem. It's been going on for 5 years. I was praying that Frazier would get a HC job last year and then he kiboshed that with the 13 seconds fiasco. It's basically the same thing he did today and keeps on doing and every time people act surprised.

Sorry you can't blame it on talent when you continue to rush 4 and drop back into cover 4 or prevent year after year in every situation that requires a stop and you get beat anyway. It's not talent, it's situational scheme.

If the defense makes a stop on 4th and 18 it's game over. I guess that was too much to ask from Frazier. He likes to make games interesting with 13 seconds, Hail Murray and the like.

If the defense makes a stop on 4th and 18 the game is over and there's no fumble on the goalline or pick int he endzone. The D couldn't do that so the rest is a consequence of that failure 🤡

Did you miss the part where he's the only reason they didn't lose in regulation?

I gave you two shots and you're still fixated on the completely wrong thing. Allen did everything he needed to do to win today and then his defense cost him the game and he took them to overtime anyway.

What was ugly about Allen's game today? Until the last play he was 29/42, 69% (giggity), 1 TD- 1 INT 330 yards passing and 6 carries for 84 yards. That should be considered a very good game by anyone and he did all of that with a throwing arm injury.

Looks like the part about asking him to bail out the rest of the team and staff infinite times went over your head.

Schottenheimer created good/elite teams wherever he went. The proof is in the pudding that he clearly wasn't the problem at any one of his destinations.

Josh refusing to take what's given is the player he's been his entire career. He may shift away from it for drives, quarters or games, but eventually it's what he reverts back to. It's a large part of the reason he's as dynamic as a player as he is, but yes it will bite him from time to time. He needs to learn when that killer instinct is needed and when it isn't in order to reach his ceiling. If he does ever find that balance, we'll likely see a lot more boring games where he doesn't light up the scoreboard as he dinks and dunks safe balls, but we should win more overall. That said, Josh's team and the coaching staff let him down today. Outside of Singletary's nice couple of runs, he was the only meaningful asset for us on the field today. Sometimes that's enough to win, but we're seeing more and more that it isn't high probability against competent teams. If Frazier doesn't call soft zone Hail Murray defenses every single time we have to make one long defensive stop to win, this game was over. This is like the 7th goddamn time in recent memory this has happened, and pinning it on Josh is ridiculous. Tom Brady in his prime isn't winning here the way this staff handles defense.

That sounds like a Daboll problem. Guys from the Belichick tree have never been known as being stable personalities.

What are you talking about? This is how Josh has always played. The difference is that in the past his "should be" INTs turn into Jaw dropping TDs. He's been a gun slinger his whole life and he's going through a stint where it isn't working our for him and you're asking him to be Chad Pennington. The reason that he's throwing more INTs because we're throwing the entire outcome of the game on his shoulders every single week. You can't do that. Our defense makes a stop on 4th and 18 and that pick doesn't exist and we're talking about how JA is the best player in the NFL again.

Yea, I miss all the Super Bowls we won while he was here too.

Not just today - his entire career. He's the best WR I've ever seen.

That doesn't really hold up. 4/5ths of this line has proven they can play at a high level in this league in the past. Dawkins and Saffold are playing the worst ball of their careers. Morse may be past his prime as he just isn't stout enough to hold up against bull rushes, but he also has a talent level higher than he's showing. Bates is playing solid ball. He might be playing the best of anyone on the line right now. RT is an obvious need.

For $5m or less a season? Sure. Anything more and Nah. He's a fringe starter. Ideally, he'd be your second best DT.

I guess you missed Diggs standing in front of that player that I told you to look for. You also missed the point about Allen only being in this no-win situation because of his poor decision not to release the ball earlier. Like I already said, you don't care about being correct, only about trying to win a fight and it shows. Everything you've said has been disproven both by what actually happened as well as video replay, but don't let that stop you from hammering on about what could have been (even if it couldn't). Suffice it to say, you're wrong and the video speaks for itself, but I'll withdraw from the argument so that you can claim the victory you so desperately need.

Kuni's has some of the best traditional sushi in the country. Pho Dollar has an exceptional Banh Mi and very good Vietnamese in general. Nine Eleven tavern are the best wings that exist. Mulberry is a very good yet unpretentious Italian restaurant.

Because Cook can't break tackles. Betting on Knox to beat one defender through speed or force isn't outlandish as a last option. Again, The right play was not to roll out to the left it was to step up int he pocket and throw the ball to Davis when he was wide open before the 50. Once that moment had passed, Davis was a dead option - as the result showed. At that point, the throw was a 0% chance to be completed unless one of the top CBs in the league in Gardner makes an unforced error - not a good idea to bet on that. Once Allen decides to extend the play beyond what his arm can handle the only choice is to fling a hail mary and hope for a DPI or to target an underneath player and hope they can make a play to get a first. Of the underneath players, Knox was in the best position to make a play. 4 players on the defense were engaged at the line and 6 were on the Davis side of the hash, leaving one player in between Knox and a 1st. Diggs was upfield to block the only other player on Knox's side of the hash. It wouldn't be my first choice for a decision, but Josh boxed himself in to the point where it was the only reasonable decision to make. instead he either deluded himself into thinking he could throw the ball 85 yards for a completion, or that he'd put Davis in a position to get a call thrown his way - neither of which came to pass.

All-22 footage that shows exactly what I described, but you clearly want to win a fight more than you want to be correct, so you do you

This is what I saw live - here it is in video proof. Davis has three steps on Gardner at the 50. If the ball is thrown then it's complete at the 30 and davis runs in for a TD. Instead Allen holds it another two seconds and by the time it gets there Davis has to slow up to try the catch at the 20. By the time Allen threw, it needed to hit the 10-15 yard line to have a chance at completion 7 defenders? literally no. There was 1 guy. 9 defenders were on the opposite side of the field Watch the all 22. If knox can't beat 1 guy tot he sticks, he isn't good enough to be a #1 TE worth his contract.
