NFLAnalyzer Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 Eagles had a 3rd and 21 and the Skins poor Defense allowed Mcnabb to throw a 20 yd pass and then they went for it on 4th and 1 and later scored a TD. This was defintely the turning point of the game in my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodriggo Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 Turning point was the drive off the McNabb fumble. We score 6 there and we win. Instead we hit a field goal and simply delay the inevitable. Philly was moving it all day against our D and the fumble was an aberration. We should have gone for it. Worse case scenario, they have to get a field goal starting from their own 2. Best case scenario we're 6-3 and have the inside track for a wildcard spot. The best you could have hoped for after going up 5 is to "not lose" which is all this team is about.. "Not losing" much less "winning" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destino Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 When Cooley had a movement penalty and our caoches responded with fear by calling a draw play without even spreading the formation. That play had a low chance of scoring and everyone on the field and watching new it. It was a safe call to try to get some points. How many damn times does this team have to make a safe offensive call with the intent on letting the defense win it before they realize that doens't work?

jamesbondman Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 When Greg Williams was allowed to run his PREVENT defense for another game. So I guess the turning point was the coin flip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knowledge316 Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 turning point when you fail to score a TD to seal the game with 6 tries inside the 5 when you decide to run a draw play on 3rd and goal from the 7 when your QB has a 115 rating with 6TDs 0 ints whenever Gibbs calls the plays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corrupt3d Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 Missed Extra Point by Suisham That, and the incompletion call on McCardell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One Shot Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 All those opportunities in the redzone and we came away with a field goal. We simply CAN'T have that. How do you not score with so many chances? We ran too much down there.....when they stuff the line like that, running is not going to do much. The coaches messed that one up. But if it was one play, I'd say it was the pass on 3rd and 21/4th and inches conversion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimbo Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 Nobody has mentioned the dropped INT by Godfrey that allowed the Eagles to get another TD. All of the instances listed in this thread show how we GAVE this game away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralStonewallTaylor Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 does the name ladell betts ring a bell? i dont care that we forced mcnabb to fumble the next play...betts is a joke and im glad he had another fumble in a key point of a game to prove that hes garbage. what a momentum swing he provides for other teams with his 2 ypc average (i dont know the exact numbers, i may be overestimating) and great hands. clinton portis had been running great why even put that bum ladell in the game, send him and gibbs on a rocket ship to the moon and then blow the hell out of it with some sort of nuke.

Coaching scared yet again. Amen brother. Terrible call. Draw play from the 7? What's worse is that it seemed like they were going to call that play on 3rd and 2 and decided to keep it even though we were five yards farther back. I don't think they were going to Thrash. Where's the imagination on this team? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where's the imagination on this team? It's the same play taht killed our momentum against The Cardinals when we wtrying to close door on the game. It's the same play that killed our momentum against The Jets when we were trying to close out that game. Now it killed our momentum against The Eagles. It's just chicken ***** coaching is all it is. Nothing more mothing less. Pure Cowardace!! They got a penalty the play before a chickened out! Against The Cardinals & Jets, you can survive it. Against the Eagles, you will lose.

Rodriggo Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 Against The Cardinals & Jets, you can survive it. Against the Eagles, you will lose. Absolutely! I just don't know how Gibbs doesn't see that. I mean the Walrus on the opposite sideline was pulling out a 4th down try with 8 minutes left in the 3rd quarter! He knew what this game was about.
