I believe Kelly went for it twice last night, and made it both times.

And how many points did he get the first time? Instead of a chip shot his kicker missed the long one after...wait for it...questionable play calling.

So typical.

Two weeks and a row he left points off the board the second time cost him the game, but that is okay because his name is not Jason Garrett.

Can you say hypocrite?

Can you say dense and stupid? You're being critical of a 4th down play that led to a first down. The other 4th down play led to a TD. If you're going to defend Garrett, at least use an example that didn't work.

Do you even know what "taking points off the board" means?

After he picked it up he called a screen to the TE that lost 8, another pass that got an 11 yard sack and then they missed the FG just wide, same kick is good from 13 yards closer.

And I'm happy that happened because I despise the Eagles but it has nothing to do with going for it on 4th and short in a win or go home game. There are very few chip shot FG's. The weather becomes a factor in the way a game is called. A bigger gaffe was that huge drop by Cooper. He makes that catch with nothing but green in front of him and the game is all but over. NO won that game. The final drive was classic in how they took time off the clock and mixed in runs and passes to set up the game winner.

The drive aided by Kelly not caring about TOP leaving his defense gassed at the end of games.

Did you watch the game? I mean that as a serious question. The NO defense was gassed early in the game. A key time out by Payton was probably one of the smartest calls of the night and may have saved a TD.

That's the offense the Eagles run until they milk a lead at the end of the game, then they go no huddle but slow it down. Their offense was last in TOP but first in scoring. They finished 7 and 1 to make the playoffs. D coordinators may figure them out next year and I hope that's the case but once again you're being critical of something (TOP) that the Eagles have been successful with. Again, be critical of something that didn't work.

LOL he had all kinds of good luck, his team had almost no injuries, bad calls giving them games and it still took 3 TOs in a game we gave them for them to win the division. We outplayed them in both games. We OUT COACHED them.

But whatever it is not worth discussing...lol.

Monte Kiffen out coached Chip in both games, guy earned his paycheck. Garrett/ callahan blew it on offense in the final for the NFC east....again. He passed it over 70% of the time, he's a pass happy idiot and a terrible game manager....worst in the league.

Interesting that San Fran just now didn't go for a long FG and decided to punt from the 34. If it was 4th and short don't you think they would have gone for it? Coaching error in your mind? Or making the call based on the elements? Let me guess, Harbaugh and Kelly are both fools in your world while you continue to hold on and defend the Trainee until your fingers bleed......

There was no wind in Philly last night and there is a big difference between a 40 yard FG and a 51 yard one...but by all means keep making excuses.

I don't understand. Are you saying going for it on the 15 and making it was questionable? Or not taking the field goal on 1st and 10 on the 15? Or the failed screen play? The quarterback sack was all the quarterback, so I know you don't mean that, Or do you?
