Week 8 - Eagles vs. Cardinals

[QB Eagles]

Somehow Christina Lurie was also responsible.

[PhillyPhreak54]

It's those goddamn uniforms fault!

[ice grillin you]

there's literally one play where you can say without a doubt that they would have won if it didn't happen.

the last play of the game.....if foles connects there they win

[phattymatty]

there were 86 plays that they didn't score a TD on but I'm talking about plays that actually happened in real life.

[ice grillin you]

trust me that play really happened

if he threw the ball right in matthews hands and matthews dropped it that would by your defintion have cost them the game...right?

well this is basically the same thing....if foles makes a throw me or you could make they win

either way one play rarely ever is the story of a football game

[PhillyPhreak54]

But the bottom line is if they don't allow John farging Brown to beat them deep they win the game.

[ice grillin you]

and the bottom line is if foles make a simple throw they win or if josh huff doesnt fumble they win....see how this works....and how dumb it is

even going by your premise you are acting like brown caught that pass with no time left....i still wouldnt agree that that play would have cost them the game but i would understand your thinking....in this case the eagles got the ball back with plenty of time and timeouts AFTER the brown TD and should have scored

[SD]

Foles had 3 chances to win the game and all 3 chances he throws floater corner endzone routes that weren't catchable. How about one pass to Maclin on a slant over the middle in the endzone or a pass to Matthews or Ertz in the back of the endzone?

[SunMo]

that pass to ertz was so bad, it was tailor made for a back shoulder throw and he throws it to the back corner of the end zone. 

[ice grillin you]

yeah all those throws were gross

the 2q cromartie interception was awful too....huff is wide open down the seam for prob a td but at worst inside the five and foles waits so long to throw it

[SD]

He double pumps like crazy because his confidence is shtein

[Diomedes]

Aw, poor kid just cares too much about what internet hungry hungry hippos say.

[Don Ho]

Yes they were and yes it was.  He had Matthews open in the back of the end zone and hangs one out there and leaves Matthews no room.  The other throw to Matthews where Mathieu was able to knock it away was just as awful.  Same thing, even if Matthews had caught it he would have been out of bounds because the back peddling specialist doesn't get enough zip on the ball.  It's only been 7 games.  We get 9 more weeks of this.
