[Dale]

Why was he getting up to run after he picked the pass?

Because Commander.

 

[Eddie]

Hey, another 2nd round rookie making an impact with their teams. This is how it feels like ...

Shaking my head.

Cravens had position, Eli was dumb to throw it there.

 

[StylisticS]

Many of the people who defend Garrett have been here a long time, and were saying the same things about Zimmer's play calling back when Zimmer being too conservative was one of the issues.

I said 'reactionary' because it's fans reacting to teams not winning that gets them second guessing the play calling in the first place. When they win, coaches tend to call mostly the right plays. When they lose, it's the play calling, no matter how many drops or picks or fumbles or penalties had to happen to get there.

It's not the losses that has them second guessing the play calling. It's the play calling that has had a hand in those defeats that's the issue. Screens to Witten of all people; abandoning the running game when you've had a multi-TD lead in the second half; poor clock management; not finding a way to get your #1 WR the ball. We can go on and on and have discussed it here in great detail. These are not reactionary opinions. Many fans were Garrett supporters, as I was. But we're at year 10 of Garrett's offense and what, year 6 of him as a HC?

Also, Zimmer's D was pretty bad here as time went on. We saw players out of position, Ware covering receivers rather than rushing the passer.....just some head scratchers. I'm glad he's rebounded in Minny, but even Jerry didn't consider him when Parcells was out the door.

Does it make me not a fan of Garrett if I don't mind the running play on 3rd and 3 so much?

Now I can say .... What a great call by gruden to force Eli to win it

 

[mattjames2010]

LOL outside of 2007 and 2011, Manning doesn't have a clutch bone in his body.

 

[Dale]

Christine Michael is tearing it up for Seattle right now.

 

[Aven8]

Dumb when you don't pick it up, anyway. Get it, and it's having faith in your offense.

Not when you run a dive when they know you are.
