Did anyone think we should have gone for it on 4th and 7? If it didn’t work out McClappy gets destroyed but what’s the difference. I’ll take Josh 4th and 7 vs our poor D in OT. Did anyone think the Eagles were not going to score ?

To me, that was the one critical head coaching error that McD made. You have to have a better feel for the game at that point.

Then do me a ***** favor genius and put me on mute so I don't have to endure your insufferable ramblings.

Why are you blaming Josh and not Diggs for the INT when it was in the latter’s hands?

Coach just talked about the direction "we are now headed" on offense.

 

You're headed toward a long shot at the playoffs.

 

Don't talk about potential now like it's some passing opportunity.

 

You're out of chances. You're out of mulligans. You have no chance to make another mistake. You do not need to be headed anywhere. It's too late to find direction.

 

The offense has looked very good under Brady...however, until tendencies are able to be gotten on him that doesn't necessarily mean a lot...if we have some dud offensive games at the end of the year that might be the DC's catching up with him.

If you really think about it, the offense gave the team the game-winning go ahead score twice! The defense just had to make one stop and they couldn’t do it.

 

Instead they give up nearly 40 points.

I said when Milano went down it was a devastating loss, and when you add White and the other injuries into the mix it's a miracle the defense isn't giving up 40 points every game.

That interception was a bit of a “here we go again” blot on an otherwise very good night from Josh, in fairness. Whilst the finger of blame is being pointed to Cook, Davis, Bass, McDermott… don’t throw an INT, win the game. 

And he’s thrown an INT on that same play a bunch of times. Remember Peppers in the NE game saying how he did it? This time, the DB took a half step back to bait Josh to throw to the low guy and then jumped the route. The book is out.

I think I’d be less bothered if they went all in for the TD in OT and end up giving up a FG.  Jmo

Sitting here getting ready for my week. I had a funny thought regarding the longshot chance of firing McDermott in season. The interim coach I thought about? Frazier.

 

It's be perfect as the final fall guy. No coach is going to want to be interim only to be fired at the end.

We allowed 30 points in the 2nd half and OT

At this rate, we may not be able to tell - the Bills might be in a position to tank.

 

It is true that Dorsey started hot last year. And, Jets aside - which wasn’t really on his play calling - the offense started hot this year too.

One of Josh's weakness is that he really doesn't read defenses all that well. It gets overlooked by his athletic play, but good DCs know it and it's a repeated problem.

What happened to Kincaid in the second half?  He wasn’t even targeted once.

That happens a lot?????

[EmotionallyUnstable]

Are we ignoring the 60 yard luck shot in the pouring rain? I mean come on people, the calls for McD’s head were more appropriate vs the Broncos flop…not when you lose a shootout in OT to the reigning NFC champs.

 

I get the frustration, and the pattern it plays to, but there are bigger issues than McD in this game.

Because he’s very publicly leading the “trade Josh Allen” brigade and seeks any narrative to support his hot take. Its Internet 101.

It'll be interesting. And if that happens while Allen continues to recover to himself it could be an interesting crossroads.

400 yards 4TDs that book must look more like a pamphlet

You do that and not make it they only need a FG to win.

Eagles scored 3 TDs just before that and marched down for the FG at the end of regulation.

 

Anyone paying attention knew the defense was cooked.

Man, I'm so tired of feeling sick.  I'm so tired of the ridicule.

 

I never felt like I was "soft" as a fan, but this team is beating me down.  All hope, no reward.
