They screwed themselves last year.
,,, and maybe this year too. Maybe Aiden Hutchinson didn't need to be playing with that big of a lead in the game. Of course if I were Hutchinson I'd want to be playing when I know the QB has to pass and is sitting duck.

I think they wanted to make a statement about last years failed trick play. Made it loud and clear. It was up to Dallas to not get embarrassed.

Yes they did...throwing linemen out at receiving positions..Very juvenile. Image if they had lost one of those players to injury.....I lost a lot of respect for Campbell.
Agree 100%. What point was he trying to make ? You won. Act like a professional. I think the football gods sent him a message with the Hutchinson injury. You're never as good or bad as you think.

If this is the kind of stuff a team cares about, I don’t see them winning anything meaningful. Andy Reid would never focus so much energy on something so pointless like this. Especially when the entire thing from last year was Detroit’s fault to begin with.
yeah. and against a super depleted defense, exposing your playbook, and majority of them being unsuccessful. just silly. same stubborn brashness is what cost them the game last year.

If i was coaching against you, Id run the score up to 100, and you had better shake my hand after the game. If not, your team would witness another beat down!!!
If....but you didn't...if you did, you'd be laughed off the field, little guy.

I didn't read all the replies in this thread so maybe some one has mentioned it but you should be trying to embarrass your opponent in every game. Not by running up the score or using trick plays but by just dominating them and squashing whatever it is they try to do. That gets in the head of the other teams you are playing and inspires your guys. So yes, they tried and succeeding in embarrassing us.
