NoCalMike Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 That Doctson play. There is an official right there. I believe he is even on the backside of the play which as it turns out, is the best angle to see the obvious PI. Doctson is 100% run into and hit with the ball still 5 yards away in the air. What kind of nonsense justified not throwing the flag there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veteranskinsfan Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 Bonehead play of the game goes to Josh Norman for holding penalty at the end of the game when we needed to get the ball back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildbunny Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 Had I been Gruden. I would have put my fastest guy (Bibbs?) on the field for that 63 FG try. Then call for a fake FG pass to that guy. And let him run. There's low chances it works. But there's still a better chance of succeeding than a 63 yarder from Hopkins. Furthermore, that would have been funny to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any other receiver would have been right up trying to pressure the refs into throwing a flag. Doctson barely has a pulse. No fire at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fake fg would have been my call. The best call would have been to throw the ball on a 10 yd.slant route across middle as defense guards deep and sidelines.....enough time at 19 second mark to get to ball and spike it for a 52 yd. FG try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is possible to come back in a year but it depends on the severity of the break and any damage to where the bones meet the ankle. I had 4 breaks to my fibula and the break shifted the bones off my ankle essentially. Screwed that back into place with a subsequent surgery to remove that stabalizing screw. 1 plates 8 screws total. 1 month until I could walk. About 10 months until I was 100% and I was in maximum shape at the time. Alexs injury is likely worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I shove aside the notion of conspiracies quite often when this team plays, because I have seen numerous very very questionable calls go against this team. Have you watched the Patriots play and seen the number of questionable calls that go in their favor time and time again? How does any team go an entire game and don't have one penalty? The Patriots have done it. Conspiracy or human error, bad calls or no calls happen entirely too often against this team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find myself in an odd situation not blaming Jay for this loss or the decision at the end.... Im not sure what the 3rd down play was, but I bet it had some underneath options. Colt took the shot deep, and it almost worked. Probably the wrong decision, but that’s on the QB. On 4th and 10, Gruden said Hop thought he could make it. You couldn’t run a quick out because you need 10 yards and Houston would be sitting at the sideline at the first down marker. So which is more probable, a Hail Mary or a long FG? Neither probably work but I can’t blame Jay either way. Dallas game might be for the division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After that the flags are locked away so they don’t embarrass themselves further if they don’t get involved, nobody can blame them.

NoVaSkins21 Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 This game was there to be won, but turnovers and play calling were the difference. The pick 6 before the half was BAD, even though Reed shouldn't have stopped on the route. The Doctson play call probably was a PI, but they could've gone somewhere else and they IMO they should've attempted one more pass on 4th down and gotten out of bounds instead of the long FG. Also want to add that Smith was obviously holding this team back given how McCoy performed when he was in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smith is already older and he has a long road ahead. im wish him the absolute best. I was younger than Smith when I broke mine and I was in a cast for 6 months. They put a rod in your leg from your ankle to your knee to stabilize it. I had mine removed 2 years later but a lot of people dont. I dont think it is a career ending injury. But Smith may not be ready for camp either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All we would need is for the eagles to win this evening to have the perfect **** sandwich of a football weekend. Let's hope the Saints take care of them.
