That's 9 first downs and drives extended. (Just on PI alone.) TOP is a huge key when you have a dominant defense. Some of the calls on Hicks have been complete BS, but he didn't have to push the limit either. Time to clean it up.

Thank you. Let's put this in perspective. John Shoop ran a more productive offense. I think it starts with Nagy becoming more disciplined, even if it gets him out of play calling. Kmet must start. Coward can not ever play again. Play action more. Rollout more. Quick pitch the ball to get Monty outside 4 times a game. Two TE sets all game. If you are going to average 3 YPC, make the defense pay the price by beating the shit out of them. Rant over...

If Foles has another stinker, I'm pulling him. They can be more effective designing runs and rollouts for Trubisky that will at least give the defense something else to think about. Foles needs an OL more than Mitch does. In all actuality, I though Foles was moderately mobile, so why not roll him out a little? Nagy needs to do something, even if it is giving up play calling.

?

While Foles can read a defense, Trubisky can run and the defense has to account for that. ?. The big story is that Foles threw Nagy and the OL under the bus according to the story Brian Griese told.

I had nothing better to do today, so I took the time to do a breakdown of every offensive snap. While we tend to look at things like time to throw, running lanes and play calling, I tried to focus on why. What I found was 44 mistakes that could stand to be cleaned up. There are always going to be mistakes that lead to failed execution, but 44 is way too many when you run 61 offensive plays. Here's the tally for miscues. QB=14, HC=2, TE=6, RB=4 and OL=18 Going try to copy my play by play sheet, but it may be ugly. Play # Actual Play Comments Play 1 Run off LT Adequate block on edge Play 2 Run middle No push, no run lane Play 3 Pass left 1st down Play 4 Pass right 8 yds Play 5 Run middle 2R 1st down negated by Ifedi Play 5x2 Pass middle Incomplete Play 6 Pass middle 7 yards - 4th down Play 7 Run off LT 3 yards, simply too many people in box Play 8 Pass middle Harris can't catch a cold.

Nice play action Play 37 Pass left Foles throws jump ball to Mooney in endzone. INT Nagy took Graham out for that. Terrible call and throw Play 38 Toss sweep RT Graham gets blown two yards back by Floyd and disrupts Massies pull. Massie fails to recognize a chip oppportunity and Floyd forces runner out. 3 yard gain, should had over 10. Play 39 Screen RT runs in front of the play while not hitting anyone. If coward hits one of the two he watched, this would have been a good play. No gain Play 40 Pass middle Rams send 6. Foles innnaccurate to the hot read Miller. Miller makes great catch for 7. Good blocking Play 41 Run left Leno does good job, but Coward fails to help Wims with a 265# DE, runs past him and blocks nobody. Same DE blows up play. See pic Play 42 Pass deep Hits Robinson with a dime. 42 yards Play 43 Pass short left Montgomery stupidly stays inbounds for a 3 yard gain Play 44 Run middle L4 6 yard gain Play 45 Run middle Nice counter play for the first and goal Play 46 Pass short rt 3yds to Graham. Kmet probably would have gotten 5 with younger legs Play 47 Run left Leno is lazy and doesn't finish his down block. Monty is jump cutting before the ball is secure, then spins to the LOS. Should have been a gain. Play 48 Pass right Foles rolls rt and throws to pylon and misses his spot by 2 feet. Incomplete. Also Robinson was more open at back pylon. Play 49 Sack Foles fails to hit Jimmy at the goalline. You have to trust the big guy. Floyd abused Massie again. Where is KMET Play 50 Throw away Foles fails to see Robinson at 8 yards, then rolls and throws away. Robinson has a few yards left after the catch Play 51 Pass deep middle Massie gets owned by Floyd again. Foles fails to step into his throw. After watching several times, that big miss to Miller is on Foles. He wasn't pressured that badly yet. He arced it 3 feet over Floyd. Play 52 Pass short left Foles hit Monty on hot read. Throws to wrong shoulder for short gain. Foles had a man in his face. Play 53 Pass short middle Quick pass for first down to Robinson Play 54 Pass short right Montgomery stupidly stays inbounds for a 5 yard gain Play 55 Pass deep right Foles pressured fails to see wide open Robinson for first down and stop clock. Instead flings one to Jimmy in double coverage Play 56 Pass short rt 8 yards to Jimmy Play 57 Pass deep middle Hits Mooney for 18 Play 58 Throw away Floyd abuses Leno Play 59 Pass short middle Monty for 10 yd Play 60 Pass deep middle Foles need to throw more towards the sideline to avoid the FS Play 61 Pass short left Graham for nothing Play 62 Sack Floyd abuses Leno Play 63 Pass deep left Wims wide open, Foles misses badly Throughout the game Whitehair and Ifedi held their own with only 1 mistake apiece. Coward was horrendous with 6 really bad ones that cost a few first downs and time of possession. Leno and Massie were next with 5 apiece. Neither had an answer for the great Leonard Floyd. Leno is just lazy and Massie is clumsy. Then there was Foles with 14 mistakes, whether it was innacuracy, missing hot reads or rushing his throws, he was simply terrible. I'm going to cut him some slack for this one, but not the next. Montgomery had 4 mistakes 2 of them cost yards and two cost valuable time. Our TE's were led by Harris who simply needs to be benched in favor of Kmet. Nagy, not using Kmet or Graham with goal to go was inexcusable and why he didn't call a timeout before the half was a major headscratcher. Try to block the damn punt! Fight for your team to make a play. Ted Ginn should have been cut during the game yesterday. I swear he must be banging Pace's wife or something. He doesn't even try to field punts. On one punt there was 15 yards from himself and the nearest defender. He could have made a decent return with that, only to leave pinned inside the ten yard line again. In summary, no more Ginn, Harris and Coward. They simply offer no help to what we are trying to accomplish. The young center looked good!

I would literally cut Ginn before the game ends.

Speaking of OL; the right tackle from Minnesota is the largest football player I've ever seen. And he moves well. 6'9 400# He's a junior. Great! He didn't play. Looks like a covid19 opt out.

I tried to pick up Carson Wentz yesterday morning. How long is the waiting period? Or where can I find waiver rules on the site?

Take note that Leno just played his worst game of the season starting next to??? When you break down Leno on coaches film, do the same with Coward. He must be a heck of a guy , because he is a terrible offensive lineman. I know he's converted from D, but how often does that work? He doesn't have the natural traits of an OL. He plays too upright and stiff. He may look good at practice speed, but game speed is fugly. Leno and Coward won't start next year anywhere.

I misread the article and thought he only made 1.5 mil. Now that I see the contract, I get it. Yes, give him a look.

He has big question marks. Also, we need to run. Why would they release someone with such a low contract that has starting experience? Buyer beware. I would definitely do my homework on this one.

????

As bad as Leno is, Coward is worse.

I didn't think it was, but it was a good segway. And totally agree...

Danny is playing better every week. Not sure why we signed Teo.

Yes

I know I was calling for Pagano's head, but never that our season was done. The staff must have seen the same thing I was talking about, because the next game he dialed it up. Now, the defense is in attack mode again and you can see a difference. Kudos to Chuck for getting it in there.

Good to see Cole get his first TD. In other news, both Shaheen and Burton caught TD's this week, as well.

I said this last year and it bears repeating, Rashad Cowherd is terrible. He also cost David Montgomery two touchdowns and 50 yards in the run game. He plays way too high and way too indecisive. Bars will be back to starting Sunday.

Lol, I feel you bro. However, there is holding on every play.(the NFL is big enough to assign a team to look at OL play, with the ability for NY to call the field and tell the officials to clean it up while not slowing the game) I would love for every personal foul play to be reviewed, with the advantage going to the offender.(football is too violent of a sport to penalize the aggressor unfairly) Also, every pass interference, or lack there of, should be challengeable like it was last year.

Just had to get me started didn't ya, lol. Been on the OL kick for 15 years. OL has the highest success rate, of all the positions, when drafted in the first two rounds. So, why not do it? Why not be able to run to help your QB? It's no wonder we can't develop our QB's. When the leaders of the franchise are content with having the team draw fans and buy jerseys, you can't build.

Agreed. Unfortunately, it is in his head and that's the hardest thing to fix.

Better OL, weapons and Andy Reid is a monster improvement in situation for anyone. I feel Trubisky could be good there. The main question is this, would he hit that wide open receiver running deep. Mahomes rarely misses that guy.

I'd do it straight up
