Week 1 vs. Eagles: A New Beginning

[Helmet Head]

why do I have a feeling this won’t be overturned.

 

[RorschachsMask]

It’s not a catch, but i wouldn’t be surprised if it stands.

 

[8slim]

The ambiguity of this team kills me. Promise and idiocy all at once.

That’s precisely how .500 teams play. Which is what we likely are.

 

[Arroyoyo]

He bobbled but they’re not gonna overturn.

 

[BaseballJones]

That decision to go for it on 4th and 8 was fine. That decision to go for it on 4th and 3 was not fine and may end up costing them the game. Hard to really say THAT, but it would have been a 5 point game with momentum.

 

[twibnotes]

As someone who defended McDaniels for years… I’ve been baffled at some of these BOB play calls.

overall he’s doing a really good job today imo. They have a shit line vs an amazing d line and he’s keeping Mac upright

 

[BaseballJones]

He bobbled but they’re not gonna overturn.

Why not? If he bobbled it, it should be incomplete.

 

[ifmanis5]

I have no idea but still hate not kicking the FG the 2nd 4th down.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

That wasn’t close refs

It was pretty close.

 

[Jnai]

Is whether or not the challenge flag came out in time a challengeable play

 

[McBride11]

Not a catch and they missed two blatant holds on the throw too

Only Henry holds duh

 

[johnmd20]

It's not a catch.

That doesn't mean it won't be ruled a catch.

 

[Beomoose]

why do I have a feeling this won’t be overturned.

Because you've been watching this game

 

[Reverend]

That pass never should have gotten off. wth was that?

 

[8slim]

overall he’s doing a really good job today imo. They have a shit line vs an amazing d line and he’s keeping Mac upright

Overall sure. Just a few calls where it’s really puzzling what we’re trying to do.

 

[Remagellan]

Why does he wait so long for the red flag?

The only explanation must be he thought one of the other officials was going to waive it off. Because otherwise, I have no idea.

 

[Ed Hillel]

It was pretty close.

I don’t think so. Bobble was very obvious and feet nowhere near down.

 

[ifmanis5]

Ha, it worked!

 

[Jungleland]

The ball is fully airborne while he's over the sideline, not a catch

 

[scottyno]

That decision to go for it on 4th and 8 was fine. That decision to go for it on 4th and 3 was not fine and may end up costing them the game. Hard to really say THAT, but it would have been a 5 point game with momentum.

How does getting stopped and kicking a field goal to go from 1 score down to 1 score down in the 4th quarter give you momentum?

 

[bigq]

Incomplete

 

[8slim]

Thank you, you dumb stupid refs.

 

[shawnrbu]

Overturned.

 

[PC Drunken Friar]

whooooooooooo

 

[RorschachsMask]

Overturned, thank goodness.

 

[katnado]

Correct call for once

 

[RCheco56]

Not a catch. great play call by philly

 

[ifmanis5]

Thanks Gene!

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

TASTE IT, PHILLY

 

[Obscure Name]

Alive.

 

[Salva135]

That’s precisely how .500 teams play. Which is what we likely are.

Yep. Which leaves us halfway with Mac, halfway with everything in the org. Worst place to be in the league.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Not a catch. great play call by philly

I think the snap was early tbh. Nobody moved.

 

[cornwalls@6]

Right call. Not a catch

 

[shawnrbu]

Gene missed the bobble in the Super Bowl.

 

[Dollar]

Not sure how anyone can watch that and think it was a catch, the ball was literally in mid-air during the bobble, and no feet came down in bounds after he secured it.

 

[RSN Diaspora]

I think it stands.

It did when they beat us in the Super Bowl. Infuriating then, but I guess good for them this time?

 

[ngruz25]

Welcome to the show, kid.

 

[ShaneTrot]

overall he’s doing a really good job today imo. They have a shit line vs an amazing d line and he’s keeping Mac upright

I agree but they need to score points. 14 points is a bit sad considering how much the d has stuffed Philly since the first quarter.

 

[8slim]

I feel like the D is tiring.

 

[shawnrbu]

Wise was held!

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Burned on the three man rush, got a lucky bobble overturn, and then they do it again?

 

[ifmanis5]

Getting carved up now.

 

[McBride11]

If you call fucking HH then call the fucking Iggle O line

 

[Deathofthebambino]

Just can't expect to stay with AJ Brown for that long. Too much time.

 

[katnado]

Wise was held!

They're holding every play

 

[johnmd20]

Now it looks easy for Philly. Defense must be tired.

 

[CoffeeNerdness]

Gene sounded like he's been enjoying a little bit of the old devil's lettuce during the afternoon games.

 

[Big D]

No penetration by the D in this half

 

[RSN Diaspora]

Our pass rush is so fuckin’ bad

 

[natpastime162]

I’m an eagles fan and after what we saw through 3 quarters and fucking shocked they overturned that catch. (and that’s accounting for the fact it was fucking obvious)
