I've been saying the same thing for a few years re: Defensive PI calls in the NFL.

If this was JJ , Lamb , ETC that's a PI all day. Terry gets no love

If the officials didn't initially throw the flag, although it would've been a crappy missed call, I'd slightly understand. The fact they did indeed throw a flag, but decided to pick it up was egregiously bad and wrong.

A high probability we get points there, and the difference between a tie and a win.

We need a real OC, and a better arm under center. Taylor either overthrows or under throws every third pass he throws. And Scott Turner is so lucky that he was ever even allowed to be on an NFL staff.

Most of you brother posters are acting like whiney bitches over the tie. The tie at their place was fine. Now we just need kick their butts at our place in two weeks.

Also, why are some of you so hung up on our weaknesses? That's practically the theme of this entire thread.

Let's see if I can guess one of those problem areas after reading about them approximately ten thousand times on this site:

TH is not a true starting QB in the NFL. He has a weak arm. Is that right? I agree. So what? There is no better option for us right now. We can worry about the starting QB position going forward in the offseason.

Fortunately, Taylor is also one of the better backup QB's in the NFL. He is super smart, has above average athletic ability, is positively relentless and gutsy, gets better at managing the game each week, inspires his teammates, and maximizes all of his skills and character traits in game after game. That is all we have a right to ask from him.

As for our other weaknesses, or challenges, the coaches and FO are doing the best they can to keep us competitive. I'm satisfied about where we are right now and I'll be thrilled if we make the playoffs.

Don’t think anyone is really bothered by the tie. It is going to come down, most likely, to us and them for the last spot depending on what Seattle does.
Yes saying TH isn’t a starter is overkill, but every time I hear some talking head mention his W-L record I feel the need to mention his noodle arm lol.

My main gripe is with Turner. He doesn’t put noodle arm in the best spots. Taylor has speed and legs and needs to RPO and for some inexplicable reason he doesn’t- plus I don’t see Turner going anywhere so I think that is a legitimate whiney thing to talk about. I am fine with the tie though, we beat then in two weeks and we are back in the drivers seat. Jimmy G going down helps us in that SF game too.

Both Teams remaining schedule

NYG = EAGLES , WSH , VIKINGS , COLTS , EAGLES
WAS = NYG , SF , BROWNS , DALLAS

It's most likely going to come down to who wins in WSH for the playoffs.

SF will win the west even with Purdy IMO because their DEF is legit.

Week 18 The Cowboys will most likely be locked into a WC spot so they will prob sit their starters

Giants should have the same record as us after Sunday, so yeah, definitely need to win that next game against them for the tiebreaker if we finish w/ same record.

Seahawks get the Panthers at home this week, which is likely a W. But their next 3 are the 9ers, Chiefs, Jets. Hopefully they lose 2 out of 3 of those.

I sense the Panthers will put up a fight, and I could potentially see that game going down to the wire for Seattle.

It was nice seeing Dotson involved again yesterday. He is going to be an absolute stud. We will have one of the better groups going into next year with McLaurin, Dotson, and Samuel.

As far as the playoffs go, win your games and don't depend on anyone else. You should earn your way in, not depend on anyone or anything else.

This team is just so flawed. It is what it is.

Yesterday ending felt like you finally got a chance with your dream chick and you last 5 seconds.

TH doesn't seem to be comfortable with RPO, either he doesn't read it well or it's just not his game. Plus the dude is tiny, do we really need him exposing himself in the open field? I don't really get the criticism of TH or of Turner for yesterday. We killed ourselves with penalties more than anything.

We were totally undisciplined but I hated our playcall down near the redzone, and like Chico said our third down conversion rate should have been better against the Giants.

Taylor needs to use his speed and run sometimes instead of chucking it. He can slide but get those 7 yards when you have open field. Dont be like RG-3. Just get what you can get and slide. He sailed a few balls and missed a few balls again. Idk I think criticism of those two is pretty fair. Anyway we got two weeks to gameplan for this same team and get healthy before we get them at home with a lot on the line. Fly Eagles Fly. yuck hurts to say that.

3-14 on 3rd down. Not good enough versus an avg, below avg giants defense
