He was not right.

The Eagles would have still got the ball back with about a minute left but then only needing a FG, not a TD.

and if the eagles let them score on third down?

 

He was right.  Its the smarter play and they were lucky they got away with it.

Then all they accomplish is running off 10-15 seconds off the clock and taking a couple timeouts out of the equation.

They didn't "get away" with anything. It wasn't the kind of situation that was going to have any significant effect on the game.

The fact that he kept repeatedly ranting about it was sort of embarrassing, imo.

There is something this year with Hurts where D Coordinators have picked up some tendency that wasn’t there last year. 

You sell out to stomp the run. Philly is a run first team. Make hurts throw. He has weapons but hurts is a better runnner than passer. Their o line hasn’t been as good this year either. Now no lane Johnson.

Patriots getting a top qb this yr

And a 71 year old coach who would still have the 4th best qb in the division

And also because Hurts was playing so awesome all game right? I mean, why leave 1:46 on the clock when Hurts is obviously going to march down the field and score.

 

It's so obvious and basically predetermined.

So actually, I was just trying to make a funny, referencing the Bradley Cooper movie, “Silver Linings Playbook.” Great movie, btw.

 

I'd like to parlay that, excelsior!

Why is it a good thing? Screw the browns.

Jeez, why?

 

Yeah their owner is a crook but their fans are unbelievably loyal. I've never heard of a "bandwagon Browns fan." 

 

To me, Cleveland is the only AFC team I can tolerate, despite the Watson crap.
