2%. That 2% relies on Jeff Feagles calling in and saying two words, "I'm ready."
Those who put the loss on Dodge's shoulders know absolutely nothing about football and/or didn't watch the game.
The biggest play of the implosion was the Celek catch. 7:30 left up 21 points, all you have to do is make that drive last any amount of time greater than a minute long and we win that game. Instead you let him score them score in 10 seconds. Have them catch you off-guard with an on-side kick with 7 minutes left when if there was 5-minutes left you probably have your whole hands team out there just in case.
Now why the fuck is Justin Tuck covering anyone 30 yards down field? Why doesn't Kenny Phillips interrupt that bobbled catch or at least tackle Celek?
Then, Aaron Ross coming inside on the 3rd and 10 blitz that breaks containment and allow Vick to run outside 40 yards down the field.
I don't get Nahste blaming the blitz calls when that is what worked the whole game and exactly what we needed to do in the 4th. When we played pussy 3 man rush (Tuck covering Celek) then Vick beats us when he has all time to throw it or run it for 25+ yards when the rest of the defense is 30 yards away from the line of scrimmage. Blitzing works, if Deon Grant can make a fucking tackle or Ross does his job properly than Vick doesn't run for another 30 yards.
Offense did their job yesterday. Defense didn't. Simple as that.
EDIT: I didn't see the game on TV and I refuse to watch highlights but they showed the punt return on Miked Up on YES network and there was a block in the back on Chase. Nonetheless, I'm not crying about it, just something I saw.Comment

It was just a very questionable decision in my opinion to not switch things up even a little bit. It was like playing a cheeser in NCAA or Madden online who calls the same 3 defensive plays all game and fails to adjust once you have accounted for his tendencies.Comment

Holy shit. How did I forget the false start penalty. That changed a 2nd and 6 on a drive that we were doing great moving the ball to a 2nd and 11 which led to a 3rd and 11 and later the punt. If that false start doesn't happen we probably get a first down and win the game.
If out of the eight or so miracle things go the other way, we probably win that game.
Also, it special teams coach Tom Quinn needs to be fired after this season. Coverage has been terrible all season to the point that many fans have been asking themselves, when are STs going to lose us a game? Well they're it was. He needs to be gone.Comment

Was in a sports bar during this game, of course the entire place was cheering because of the Vick/Jackson combo, completely disregarding the fact that Desean Jackson is a tool. I think I was the only one who didn't scream "That's muh nigga DJ".
Needless to say, thank you New York for providing my entertainment for yesterday.Comment
