Championship teams also lose ugly games.

You can look at any team that won the Super Bowl and find a game they lost that they should have won.

s**t happens, and teams have bad games. It's how you respond to it that matters.

Here's a perfect example



Philly kicked our as 40-8.

We only lost one game the rest of the season.

Brock led a great drive down the field. Unfortunately shanny believed way too much in Moody (a rookie kicker) instead of trusting Brock (elite QB) to get as close as possible for a FG. Thought it was weird to just run Mason then immediately spike instead of going to get more yards (play action would have worked great on 2nd down) .

Brock was feeling it last drive and could have gotten a TD or at least go the ball to inside the 10 where even Moody would struggle to miss from. Hopefully in the future, he keeps the ball in Purdy's hands and goes for the TD instead of a FG. I have no faith in Moody hitting anything outside 35 yards for a game winner especially in the elements.

I would never consider a 41 yard FG a sure thing on a wet field with the wind in play, and before someone says ("well Gould did it in the snow in a playoff game") we are talking about a rookie kicker.

That was an easy ass kick to make, shoulda been a gimme

Please calm down Purdy is by far not an elite QB I am thinking mathematical regression to the mean is coming for him as he is overdue

I get it. I get that stance, but no. I was shouting to get closer. We had 34 secs with a timeout. At what? The 30. Yes it should be made from there, but that game was different. Get to the 20 or 15. We were capable. I was pissed we settled there. This isn't hindsight either

The Eagles lost very ugly today to a team they should not have lost to. It happens to everyone. It's 1 game.

ya its on shanahan to call the plays. Running with Mason was not ideal especially with Purdy heating up. Yes it took a while for him to get going but i truly believe if he got 10 more yards moody makes that kick. Just easier mentally to make a 30 yarder than a 40 yarder. Also possibility to get it under 30. Shanny got scared at the end and put way too much faith in Moody.

Kyle decided in that moment that he trusted Moody more than Purdy and Mason. Don't worry though, Moody is going to change that.

Oh, really. How many of them did you make in your kicking career? Since you state your case with so much certainty. I have to assume that you were probably an elite kicker in college and so, can speak from experience. No doubt you would have made the pros if it hadn't been for a poor Wonderlic score.

He didn't play well but I'm not worried. He looked calm and collective on that final drive. Led the team down the field for what should have been a game winning come from behind field goal.

Agreed. Shanahan did Brock no favors today and Kittle forgot to show up.

Kitlle was there, but Shanny could NOT come up w/a play for him to energize the offense..

Not Kyle's best game since being hired as head coach ( one of his worse if we're being honest ) but Brock should still be hitting those open receivers. Just a bad day overall for the offense.

Don't forget when Brock hit them, they were getting dropped
