Why didn't Garrett have the ref explain to him about the mistake regarding the clock. He should of tackle the ref to get his attention.

and the quick timeout before the half before the field goal attempt. no reason to panic and call a timeout with that much time left. you milk it to 2 seconds then kick the field goal or force philly to call the time out.

I believe that the TO Was called after an incomplete pass... so you couldn't run the clock down. With that said, JG has got to be the worst game manager ever!

Not just Garrett but someone on the staff, up in the booth, something.....
The refs missed a call in the KC game on the missed FG that would have gave KC another shot a FG to win the game. The NFL will issue an apology but it doesn't change the results. Mistakes like these are inexcusable with that much riding on the outcome of a game.

That had me puzzled too, .. I was surprised Philly didn't try something with :19 seconds and 3 timeouts. Anything can happen with the speed of Jackson and McCoy.

Why would he call a TO then?

Hard to believe the refs didn't realize that the clock ran out quickly... considering how many games they have reffed, you would think that they would have a feel for what a 40 sec pay clock would be.

Besides....the clock went from 40 to 25....and the clock started to roll before the ball was even spotted!!!!! May have been the biggest play in the entire game

Simple, because he is the worst coach in the league.

Worst coach in pro football history is what I believe now... I'm talking worse than Butch Davis, Bruce Coslett, Dave Schula and all the other bums I forgot about.. Sorry I had to remind you of them

Except that we scored a TD.

Not really, cause we got the ball back and scored.
