While I agree the Eagles look too strong, it's a division game and we went toe to toe with the last time. Never say never.

Coaches have become reckless. The decision by Campbell to kick an onsides kick with 11 minutes to go was reckless and stupid. I have no idea what our coach was doing in the final minutes of the first half. He gave the Saints time with a timeout when they were looking at a 3rd and 5 from near midfield which they easily converted. Then after they got a stop he used a timeout deep in his own end to call a short pass which accomplished nothing and exposed risk.
I was just in a bad mood after the game which was really weird after a win. No way they should have blown a 17 point lead to a team like the Saints.
I was on the fence on the last field goal attempt. Punters aren't really adept at punting from the 36, or the 41 with the delay penalty. The punt could have very well gone in the end zone netting 16 yards. Looking back that clearly would have been the right move, 16 yards at the end would have been huge. But it was another miss set up by a bad snap, this is now a problem again.
