I think that’ll be the one thing I won’t get over. It changed everything about the strategy at the end of the game. It made absolutely no sense to even attempt it, and the results were disastrous. It killed any sort of strategy on the drive.

We still had a minute left. Go and let Brady do what he’s done for you for the last two decades.

You do have wonder if Bill got a little arrogant in this one. He’s made so many genius calls, I guess he was due for a dud game.
 
I have no problem with it. If he works, BB is a genius. I think D Lew showed our hands a bit. (Pun intended). His hand was too outstretched when reversing the play.
 
I did not care for that play.
 
Not with Brady.

Just a cluster call on top of a cluster coaching day
 
Eagles special teams is elite, you absolutely take a knee there.

There was so little potential on that play. It was so unlikely.
 
No problems with that. We went to the quick outs too late on that drive tbh , if you want to point at a strategy flaw in the last minute
 
Team looked unprepared. Coaches just need to field a mediocre defense and let Brady win them a ring. They couldn't do that.
 
I had a feeling Dion had some magic for us. Instead we got that turd.

Coaching and play calling was horrendous all around tonight.
 
The biggest problem at the end was the missed field goal in the first quarter. It would have been a hell of a lot easier to drive for a few more yards at the end with 2 plays than 1 hail Mary at the end.

I'm actually not as angry at the ending of this game than I am disappointed. The Pats had every opportunity to win and made way too many mistakes. Foles and the Eagles played very well and made far less miscues.
 
of course it made sense..they needed a TD with under a minute no time outs. What made no sense was the eagles kicking it short.
 
we needed to try and get up near midfield. Made sense to try something.
 
Another brilliant move by bill.
 
No problem with that. I was mad as hell at the stupid trick plays in teh 1st half. Josh was calling that half like we were down 30 and desperate when it was not called for.
 
If it works youre a genius if it doesnt youre a bum. One of those things. Can't blame them for atleast trying something.

Field a bad defense and we win that was all time bad you won’t see a worse one than tgat

The ball came down in the field of play (good coaching on Philly’s part) so taking a knee was not an option.

I’m still trying to understand why they attempted to kick a field goal from inside the 10 yard line with less than a yard to go and then on the next drive go for it on 4th and 5 from the 35,!!
