Gannon got outschemed and outcoached like shyt in the 2nd half
TWO critical TDs given up where the receiver had space and time to freaking moonwalk into the endzone :why:
And they were in the redzone where spacing is supposed to be tightest
Obviously the scheme that got this team 70 sacks wasn't working, would have liked to see him try different things to pressure and contain Mahomes. maybe throw in some "exotic" blitzes just to keep him on his toes and off balance. Something, damn

I assumed they had been keeping some blitzes in the tank for when they needed them but clearly not.

I'm gonna come in, pop shyt & then roll

U can tell who played competitive sports and who didn't...you can also tell who understands the game & who doesn't

You gotta notice the trends and pay attn to the key details...so here are my key takeaways
  • Losing the coin toss hurt right off the bat
  • Before the fumble, the false start on Seumalo was huge...went from 3rd and short to 3rd & medium
    • Would've been a guaranteed conversion without the false start
  • It's hard to beat a good team in the playoffs when you give away free points
    • One turnover sounds fine except when the other team doesn't turn the ball over
    • That was a huge play and realistically kept KC in the game
  • Even being up 10 at halftime I was worried bc we didn't disrupt the KC offense
    • Our best defense was controlling the clock in the first half
    • Mahomes was comfortable all night
    • He was able to get to his 3rd read with ease all night
    • Pass rush was not getting there all night
    • Creed Humphrey shut down the inside pass rush
    • Reddikk, Sweat, Graham played their worst game of the season
  • Miles Sanders played horribly...but we still needed to run the ball more, esp w/ Gainwell & Scott
  • 11 second half points is not enough to beat a team as well coached as KC
    • We had better talent top to bottom but that wasn't displayed last night
  • Jonathan Gannon did not do a good job of mixing of blitzes, coverages, looks or anything
  • We didn't spy Mahomes all night, which is unfathomable, esp on 3rd downs
  • The hail mary attempt was pitiful
  • Hurts played a really good game, but we needed him to be mistake free
    • We needed him to compensate for a poor def effort
    • We needed him to win the big game
    • End result = another loss on the big stage

all trolling aside be honest, did you enjoy that loss way more than if we would've won and got lombardi number 2? your whole takeaway is how horrible the defense was, but you're shytting on hurts because he played an A game instead of an A+ game to save this horrible ass defense. who gives a fukk about that hail mary attempt? game was over. he outplayed mahomes but reid just out schemed the fukk outta us.

We need to ban him from all future eagles threads. He isn’t a real fan. He would have been ghost if the defense made a stop and we won.

A lot of deadwood on the defense when you really look at it. Slay fell apart at the 2nd half/end of the season. TJ Edwards ain't it need Dean to step up and take that spot. Gonna lose a lot of our depth on the defensive line. Howie gonna have his work cut out for him this offseason.

I would trade down from 10 to the teens, get an extra pick. Pick DB and DL in the first, DL maybe again in the second. We got to load up with actual talent and most of all we need new scheme. If Wilson becomes DC I pray he has something different than gannons bullshyt

I’ll take that to mean you usually fall asleep in that same chair that hasn’t seen a meaningful cowboy game since your granddaddy sat in it back in 95. The ironic thing being it’ll be the same chair your grandkids will be sitting in wondering if this is finally the boys year.
