Here's the problem: Philly will still win the East, meaning we're staring at three games in the playoffs (perhaps all on the road). Hell, we might be headed back to Minny.
Because he rarely sheds blockers or makes tackles for a loss. I did see him make a crunching tackle yesterday, which happens as frequently as Halley's Comet.
You should know how this works by now. We're down on them this week, so naturally they'll win. And the win will make them overconfident vs the Giants, leading to disaster. Rinse, lather, repeat.
Doesn't have ideal height, doesn't have an elite arm, doesn't run anymore, and has happy feet when there's the slightest bit of pressure. Other than that he's wonderful.
We shouldn't use it as an excuse for losing, but refs don't get to make bad calls just because we blew a 14 point lead. Those calls would have been equally egregious at 0-0.
