Saturday Wildcard Games Thread

[TheMarathonContinues]

One thing which gets missed out is: Pederson going for a wide sweep on the 4th and 1 and going for 2 when there was an opportunity instead of playing safe for FG and tie.

Yeah that took some nuts. He had nothing to lose and coached like it. Very conservative from the Chargers.

Ya'll really watched that just happen and conclude anything else other than the Chargers threw that game in the 2nd half as they were supposed to like you have seen so many times but refuse to accept?

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Lol at all the people on here defending Herbert who wouldn't be defending Dak if the same thing happened to him tonight.

Ain’t that something? They go to bat for players not even on this team that’s how I know some of these guys aren’t real fans lol.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Jags have done this to multiple teams this year though...you know, including us.

Cowboys gave them that game. They won on a unforced pick 6 lol.

@MarcusRock , got a 'spiracy theorist over here. So why did the chargers throw the game?

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

I mean, Nav22 is on his D constantly. Just trying to figure out if Dak was the face of the collapse since, you know, what just happened to the Chargers happened to us a few weeks back.

Cowboys gave that one away. Maybe the Chargers did too. Very weird game it’s like they didn’t even want to win they look like they quit.

That’s my question. Why would they throw it?

 

[kuyyo_morro]

25 passes to 8 runs in the second half for the Chargers. That explains it why they lost.

 

[noletime95]

Im not a big college football fan. In retrospect a bad pick, but was Samuel considered better at the time? I know Joseph had a good 40, though I think his cone and shuttles weren’t as good. Not a good look for a CB.

Joseph had the measurement, Samuels had the tape

Have to admit that early in the game when Pederson, down 0-7, went for it on 4th and 7 vs taking the early points was a head-scratcher. But he definitely has confidence in his QB, and really, he has only thrown 1 pick in the 7 games or so...so Pederson had reason to not expect that 1st half.
They won though. lol

Dude, the freakin' defense still had to make stops and the offense had to score. Jags overcame 4 INTs in this game, they overcame a bad INT in the Cowboys game, they also did it against the Vikings.

Simple fact is, if the standard is that Herbert is the face of the collapse, so was Cousins and Prescott. Double standards and goal post moving. That's all this is here.

 

[StarOfGlory]

Yeah it’s not a bad thing being too good too soon. Especially if Pederson is a good coach. Ahead of the curve.

According to some posters here, Pederson is an idiot and a lousy coach.

Call up the NFL an ask them why they keep scripting the Chargers to choke I'm not the one doing it

So is the NFL against us too?

Dak would be getting DESTROYED. Herbert was not good tonight. Only manufactured 10 points of O when you take away all those short fields because of the INT's. Was god awful in the redzone.

 

[dmaschuck]

You tell em Trevor oh but I'm sure its just a "joke" though they sure joke about that script a lot

That aggressive crap….its a time and place for it I don’t know if I’m ok with just doing it all times especially early.

Doug Pederson knows how to handle human beings.

I mean you are shocked that on a Cowboys forum that’s double standards and goal post moving to defend our guys lol? I don’t care who’s the face. Herbert did nothing to win this game. Just a fact. I respect Lawrence more throwing 4 picks then I do Herbert doing nothing. At least Lawrence tried to win the damn game.

Yeah. That dude who posted that and believed it is as big of a bozo as it gets.
