You can take a Sack from inside the Redzone and still get the FG. You cannot take a -9 from the Philly30 in colder weather. We’ve been doing this for 2 straight years. 1 successful TD in about 20 tries. Probably 6-7 missed FG opportunities at 3 pts each.

No guarantee on the long FG. But that is why we have a kicker. At least have to try.

In low scoring games a FG is imperative.

If it’s 24-17 totally different story.

Furthermore you don’t risk a turnover there. Take the points and go into halftime.

With Packers D rush...teams they play scheme their offense to quick slants etc.

Lafluer keeps Love in 7 step drop backs!

We know how this game ends.....plus....I dnt think it matters too much anyway....this team would be torched in playoffs!

I hope this isn't like last year where it's really close for 3 quarters and they pull away in the 4th.

We had 11 seconds from like the 25. that's at least 1 shot at the endzone.
We started with :31 sec and timeouts. Gotta watch the clock and don’t leave timeouts out there.

That’s the problem. Nobody watches the clock. ️ had enough time to run there and use a TO. Then 1 free shot on a rollout or throw it away. Stops the clock.

42 yarder. It’s a game of keep away and we have all the cards.

This was nearly devastating. Same situation different opponent.

We are all forgetting one thing. This is 1 crappy offensive line even before the injury. They can't run block and they pass block by backing right up into the quarterback's lap

Guess who made adjustments at halftime, not saying but looks like the team in white. As for the end of the first half, anyone still believe in J Love as the guy to lead this team? His performance has been awful (again) has not shown the ability to get out of the pocket, find receivers or put the ball where it needs to be. The Phillie drive took 6 min and their mix of plays was good- at least the D rose to the occasion to make it a 3-0 game. Little confidence the offense can put a scoring drive together considering the lackluster performance. They really really miss Kraft!

The Eagles played their last drive The way we SHOULD have finished ours. Do not bite too much and give your kicker a make able FG.
