    Alright, time to talk about last night. After a night’s sleep and a bit of chatting about it with coworkers ofc.

    First off, McDermott may be cooked. We’re seeing the same mistakes made over and over again, and witnessing this happen over and over again is infuriating. He used 2 unnecessary timeouts, one to ice the kicker and one to plan his third down defense, which he always does and drives me nuts. It gives opposing teams under pressure the opportunity to catch their breath and, if at home, sucks the air out of the fans. Regardless, neither should have been used, and it would have been nice to have when we needed to March down the field and try to tie. Instead, we kneel and head into overtime. That is some bitch ass shit. Go for it. Couldn’t end up any worse, go for it.

    Gabe Davis had a good game, but even when he’s good he makes me want to stick my tongue in an electrical outlet. He has the worst incompletion of the game and sinks us.

    What happened to Bass? The dude was automatic, and last night misses 2 FG attempts. You hit those, and we walk out of the Linc with a Big W bigger than Bush Sr. Instead, he absolutely shanked both. He’s not always like this but that’s fucking brutal dude. We can’t leave points on the board like that, especially in a game like that.

    If it were my team, Lawson and Phillips would be gone, and the other D Linemen involved would be reprimanded after the incident that took place after the game yesterday. How your team is so untrained that they assault a fan is beyond me, but it’s reprehensible. Yeah, it’s an asshole Eagles fan, so what? There are millions of them out there, climbing poles and fist fighting police horses as we speak. That doesn’t mean we gotta get into it with em.

    Last for the negatives, and i seriously hate to be like this, but those refs need to be investigated. Under Nick Sirianni, the Eagles are undefeated in record and penalty differential when Sean Hochuli refs a game. Being an amazing ref doesn’t run in the family, I guess. How do you miss that Horse Collar that fucking bad man? Stevie Wonder could have told you what that penalty was. And the intentional grounding afterward is just the extra kick in the crotch we all needed.

    Looking at positives, Allen, minus that one very bad interception, looked great. He put up a performance to be proud of for sure. Rasul Douglas did, too, and he’s been worth the pick we traded and then some to this team. The young DL guys got home, and Rouss was a menace. Diggs is still Diggs, and Terrell Bernard looked good again.

    Honestly, though, I’m glad the season is all but cooked. Stressing out over if this team would make it just to almost certainly get blown out by the Jags or Ravens or whoever just wasn’t fun. We haven’t been the team we were in previous years, and that needs to be addressed.

    As always, fuck this team, and see you next week. Maybe by then, I will be able to talk about college prospects or something.
