WEBVTT - Post Game Show: A Tough Way To Go Out 0:00:25.200 --> 0:00:27.520 I believe. I don't know about you guys out there. 0:00:27.640 --> 0:00:30.160 I thought the hell of Mayor had a chance. Unfortunately, 0:00:30.160 --> 0:00:32.160 it was knocked down in the end zone and the 0:00:32.159 --> 0:00:37.479 Eagles suffer a heartbreaking defeat at the hands of Washington 0:00:37.600 --> 0:00:41.960 twenty seven to twenty four. It's the team's third consecutive loss. 0:00:41.960 --> 0:00:44.559 I'm Chris McPherson joined along Stide Ike Reese. Will hear 0:00:44.600 --> 0:00:46.680 from Greg ho Sell little bit later in the show. 0:00:47.120 --> 0:00:50.720 We're gonna undwrap everything here on the postgame show presented 0:00:50.720 --> 0:00:53.080 by Rico. We're gonna go to FECs Field. We'll have 0:00:53.240 --> 0:00:56.400 Chip Kelly's press conference along with Mark Sanchez's press conference, 0:00:56.960 --> 0:00:59.680 and we might as well Ike start with Mark Sanchez. 0:01:00.240 --> 0:01:03.080 The theme of the season here for the Eagles, the 0:01:03.160 --> 0:01:07.200 Alpha and Omega, comes down to turnovers, and the Eagles 0:01:07.200 --> 0:01:11.160 started this game Mark Sanchez lost a fumble, Washington was 0:01:11.200 --> 0:01:13.319 able to convert into an early field goal for three 0:01:13.400 --> 0:01:16.640 nothing lead. The Eagles tie game twenty four. Twenty four 0:01:16.720 --> 0:01:19.559 fourth quarter, Sanchez is leading the team down the field. 0:01:19.560 --> 0:01:23.400 They're right around midfield. Third down pass attempt to Macklin 0:01:23.760 --> 0:01:27.840 is intercepted by Bashaud Breeland and it gives the Washington 0:01:27.880 --> 0:01:29.840 team a short field to work with as are able 0:01:29.880 --> 0:01:33.319 to mosey undown accept the easy Chip Shop field goal 0:01:33.319 --> 0:01:36.360 for Kai Forbath, who kicks him the twenty six yarder 0:01:36.720 --> 0:01:42.240 to give Washington it's fourth win of the season. Yeah, Chris, 0:01:42.280 --> 0:01:45.760 I mean, you know, just just very disappointing when you 0:01:45.800 --> 0:01:49.920 look at the execution of the team today, knowing what 0:01:50.000 --> 0:01:53.000 was a stake, knowing that they had to basically come 0:01:53.040 --> 0:01:57.279 in and not allow this Washington Ridskins team to hang around. 0:01:57.320 --> 0:01:59.920 Don't give them any confidence, don't give them any belief 0:02:00.320 --> 0:02:03.720 that they can beat you. And the Eagles made just 0:02:03.880 --> 0:02:06.680 enough mistakes today to keep the red Skins in the game. 0:02:06.720 --> 0:02:09.959 You talked about the early fumble by Mark Sanchez where 0:02:09.960 --> 0:02:12.600 he was sacked. I can't necessarily blame him for that. 0:02:12.680 --> 0:02:16.280 He was just he was sacked so fast by Ryan Carrigan. 0:02:16.720 --> 0:02:19.600 But then the penalties, the penalties, Chris, to me that 0:02:20.160 --> 0:02:22.880 that's the big story of the day. How many times 0:02:22.919 --> 0:02:26.000 did penalties either staller drive or keep a drive alive 0:02:26.840 --> 0:02:30.160 for the red Skins or staller drive for the Eagles. 0:02:30.200 --> 0:02:32.640 Just far too many penalties to overcome. And then you 0:02:32.680 --> 0:02:36.360 saw the final interception for Mark Sanchez who was really 0:02:36.400 --> 0:02:38.720 having a pretty good day, you know, taking what the 0:02:38.800 --> 0:02:40.880 defense was giving him. You know, he was getting the 0:02:40.919 --> 0:02:43.200 ball out of his hands quick for the most part 0:02:43.200 --> 0:02:45.520 of the day. You look at his numbers, thirty seven 0:02:45.520 --> 0:02:49.080 to fifty three, seventy four, that's those are pretty decent numbers. 0:02:49.080 --> 0:02:51.360 A couple of touchdown throws that he had, and he 0:02:51.400 --> 0:02:55.079 had really stayed away from the big mistake he really had. 0:02:55.160 --> 0:02:57.240 You know, you're watching the last two games versus what 0:02:57.280 --> 0:03:00.520 we saw today. This was a completely different Mark saying chess. 0:03:00.560 --> 0:03:02.640 In my opinion, he was just a little errand with 0:03:02.760 --> 0:03:05.640 that last pass, uh, they went, they went into the 0:03:05.680 --> 0:03:10.000 hands of the Shard Brelan. But certainly can't put this 0:03:10.400 --> 0:03:13.160 at the foot of Mark Sanchez the blame for this loss. 0:03:13.280 --> 0:03:15.840 I look at the penalties, and I look at miss 0:03:15.840 --> 0:03:18.000 field goals by Cody Parker. I know he's not one 0:03:18.120 --> 0:03:22.120 hundred percent. He's been automatic for you pretty much this season. 0:03:22.320 --> 0:03:24.880 But bottom line, as you lose by three and your 0:03:24.960 --> 0:03:27.959 kicker missed two makable field goals, uh, you know, and 0:03:28.080 --> 0:03:31.080 one came after a big turnover coming out of a half. 0:03:31.360 --> 0:03:33.839 They gave the Eagles great field position. They went three 0:03:33.840 --> 0:03:36.240 and out and didn't missed the field goal, so it 0:03:36.320 --> 0:03:38.720 wasn't so much what the Redskins did. I don't want 0:03:38.720 --> 0:03:40.760 to take all the credit away from the Restkins because 0:03:40.760 --> 0:03:42.760 they made a few plays, but I don't think they 0:03:42.840 --> 0:03:45.840 made enough plays to where you could say they deserved 0:03:45.880 --> 0:03:47.640 to win this game. This was more of what the 0:03:47.680 --> 0:03:51.440 Eagles did to themselves, not playing sort of a clean 0:03:51.560 --> 0:03:53.840 game in which they needed to play. They sort of 0:03:53.840 --> 0:03:55.440 We talked about this in the beginning of the game, 0:03:55.440 --> 0:03:58.000 whether or not you're gonna avoid playing down to the 0:03:58.120 --> 0:04:01.360 level of competition. I would say they played down to 0:04:01.400 --> 0:04:04.839 the level of competition to day, just with the the 0:04:04.880 --> 0:04:08.960 mental eras uh. Some of the executions defensively allowed to 0:04:09.000 --> 0:04:12.560 Sean Jackson to get behind you several times. For big players, 0:04:12.760 --> 0:04:14.680 you just can't have those things. And then the one 0:04:15.000 --> 0:04:17.520 critical era at the end of the game, the interception 0:04:18.120 --> 0:04:20.440 by Mark scint Sanchez when they were going down for 0:04:20.520 --> 0:04:24.880 possibly the game winning scorer. Um, it's just disheartening considering 0:04:24.920 --> 0:04:27.320 that what was on the line and where this team 0:04:27.480 --> 0:04:30.760 was just three weeks ago Thanksgiving, seems like it was 0:04:30.880 --> 0:04:34.400 last year. The way they performed against the Dallas Cowboys 0:04:34.640 --> 0:04:36.800 and moved to nine and three, sitting at the top 0:04:36.839 --> 0:04:45.159 of the NFC East. Yes, yeah, you're exactly right, and 0:04:45.200 --> 0:04:48.320 it just the team has not looked like they looked 0:04:48.320 --> 0:04:52.600 on Thanksgiving since Thanksgiving Day, and this is one that 0:04:53.440 --> 0:04:56.560 depending on what happens tomorrow in some of the games. 0:04:56.800 --> 0:04:59.359 You know, the door hasn't been completely shut on the 0:04:59.720 --> 0:05:02.800 post season hopes, but we need a lot more help, 0:05:03.160 --> 0:05:06.120 and more importantly, the Eagles need to get back to 0:05:06.160 --> 0:05:10.320 playing Eagles football. I mean, we had twelve games prior 0:05:10.360 --> 0:05:12.800 to the last three where they looked like they were 0:05:12.880 --> 0:05:14.839 at least one of the top five teams in the 0:05:14.960 --> 0:05:18.400 whole National Football League. In the last three weeks, they 0:05:18.400 --> 0:05:23.080 have not resembled any such thing. Ike Well said on 0:05:23.200 --> 0:05:26.240 every point. So let's lay out the playoffs scenario for 0:05:26.279 --> 0:05:28.800 the Eagles. I know it's hard for Eagles fans to 0:05:28.880 --> 0:05:31.440 here at this point, but at nine and six, they 0:05:31.440 --> 0:05:33.200 cannot win a wild card. That is out of the 0:05:33.200 --> 0:05:36.400 picture at this point. They can still win the division, 0:05:36.720 --> 0:05:41.200 but Dallas must lose out and they played tomorrow against Indianapolis, 0:05:41.200 --> 0:05:43.440 and they played the same Washington team in week seventeen. 0:05:43.520 --> 0:05:47.000 The Eagles go to MetLife Stadium next Sunday to play 0:05:47.040 --> 0:05:49.800 the Giants, They of course have to win that game. 0:05:49.839 --> 0:05:52.520 If the Eagles and the Cowboys finish tied, yes the 0:05:52.520 --> 0:05:54.960 Eagles would win the NFC East, but certainly that's not 0:05:55.000 --> 0:05:57.599 what's going to be on Eagles fans minds at this point. 0:05:57.680 --> 0:06:01.159 Thinking that this was kind of the easy stepping stone 0:06:01.480 --> 0:06:03.799 leading into that Week seventeen game, I think most Eagles 0:06:03.839 --> 0:06:06.200 fans figured, Okay, they'll take care of business against Washington 0:06:06.279 --> 0:06:08.520 because the one thing, and you mentioned this like, is 0:06:08.560 --> 0:06:11.080 that the East Eagles teams and the last two years 0:06:11.080 --> 0:06:13.800 with Ship Kelly, they've taken care of the lesser opposition. 0:06:14.080 --> 0:06:16.000 And on the Kickoff show, we had a stat where 0:06:16.000 --> 0:06:18.880 the Eagles have lost just two games to losing teams, 0:06:19.040 --> 0:06:21.440 and they were both last season to the Giants, who 0:06:21.480 --> 0:06:23.719 finished last season at seven to nine, and the Minnesota 0:06:23.839 --> 0:06:26.360 Vikings late in the year. Outside of that, you look 0:06:26.360 --> 0:06:29.600 at all the losses prior to today, all five of 0:06:29.640 --> 0:06:31.560 them were against teams that were five hundred the San 0:06:31.600 --> 0:06:34.560 Francisco forty nine ers or above, and they were all 0:06:34.600 --> 0:06:37.000 the top teams in the NFC. That's the one reason 0:06:37.040 --> 0:06:39.560 that the Eagles could have finished with eleven wins and 0:06:39.560 --> 0:06:41.440 still not made the pluffs because they will have lost 0:06:41.480 --> 0:06:45.279 all the tiebreakers within the conference after sweeping the AFC 0:06:45.360 --> 0:06:48.720 South teams that they played this season. So the one 0:06:48.800 --> 0:06:51.360 number that stands out to me, they're like the penalties. 0:06:51.920 --> 0:06:57.280 Thirteen penalties over one hundred yards given up of three yards. 0:06:57.320 --> 0:07:00.279 There you look down numbers because it's hard to really 0:07:00.360 --> 0:07:02.599 parsed this game and say, how did the Eagles lose 0:07:02.600 --> 0:07:05.400 this game? Yes, they had a couple of turnovers. Yes, 0:07:05.480 --> 0:07:09.440 Cody Parker, who had been automatic all season long missus 0:07:09.520 --> 0:07:12.600 two key field goals. But the penalties right there is 0:07:12.640 --> 0:07:15.000 what stands out to you the most. Yeah, Yeah, the 0:07:15.040 --> 0:07:18.080 penalties are the biggest thing. And that's uh, the Eagles 0:07:18.080 --> 0:07:20.800 are one of the more penalized teams in the league. 0:07:20.840 --> 0:07:23.440 That shift for some reason. That's just not like a 0:07:23.600 --> 0:07:25.960 Chip Kelly coach team, you know, is his coach that 0:07:26.000 --> 0:07:29.200 pays a lot of attension to detail and make sure 0:07:29.280 --> 0:07:31.760 that that that his players are paying attention to detail 0:07:32.080 --> 0:07:35.400 and pre snap. Uh you guys, that the guys have 0:07:35.600 --> 0:07:38.360 to be locked in and keyed into what they're supposed 0:07:38.400 --> 0:07:41.320 to be doing. And it was just far too often 0:07:41.320 --> 0:07:43.280 to day there were so many penalties Chris that you 0:07:43.440 --> 0:07:47.360 you were almost expecting a penalty after every play the 0:07:47.400 --> 0:07:50.320 way this referee crew was calling them, and a couple 0:07:50.360 --> 0:07:54.200 of them were if he calls you know, the rough 0:07:54.240 --> 0:07:56.800 and the quarterback. A couple of those two that happened 0:07:57.120 --> 0:07:59.640 that led to a Redskin scoring drive. I don't think 0:07:59.680 --> 0:08:03.080 those were rough and the penalty type of plays, but 0:08:03.440 --> 0:08:05.960 when the referees call them, they're not gonna overturn them. 0:08:05.960 --> 0:08:08.400 That's not something you can go back and review. But 0:08:08.440 --> 0:08:11.760 the bottom line is is that they allowed this team 0:08:11.920 --> 0:08:15.400 to stick around with their sloppy play, and once the 0:08:15.440 --> 0:08:18.640 Redskins game confidence, thinking that they could win this game, 0:08:18.960 --> 0:08:20.560 it was hard to turn it off. You know. I 0:08:20.600 --> 0:08:24.360 thought the interception of RG three would be the one 0:08:24.400 --> 0:08:28.800 to seal the Redskins fate and it wasn't. It was not, 0:08:29.000 --> 0:08:31.040 you know, and it was a you know, their defense 0:08:31.120 --> 0:08:33.560 came out and got a big, big turnover on that 0:08:33.679 --> 0:08:36.679 next drive to eventually put them in position to kick 0:08:36.720 --> 0:08:38.640 the game when it field goal. Watching those last couple 0:08:38.640 --> 0:08:42.199 of minuts like very similar to watching that Saints playoff 0:08:42.240 --> 0:08:46.880 loss back in January, where the Eagles offense left the 0:08:46.920 --> 0:08:49.400 field in position they were winning that game. They were 0:08:49.400 --> 0:08:51.240 tied here today, so you figure, Okay, if they can 0:08:51.280 --> 0:08:54.000 just get to overtime, they'd be in good shape. Of Course, 0:08:54.000 --> 0:08:56.040 you didn't want to see it to go overtime, but nonetheless, 0:08:56.559 --> 0:08:58.840 then the Saints took over. They got the kickoff return, 0:08:59.120 --> 0:09:01.880 and they had the easy drive to get the field goal. Here, 0:09:02.000 --> 0:09:05.240 Washington great field position because of the interception. They get 0:09:05.280 --> 0:09:07.280 the big pass play on the first play after that, 0:09:07.679 --> 0:09:09.800 and then it's at that point just setting up shop, 0:09:10.080 --> 0:09:13.480 getting four baths as close as possible. Let me ask 0:09:13.520 --> 0:09:15.199 you this, and we were kind of talking about hearing 0:09:15.240 --> 0:09:17.800 the studio watching the last couple of minutes here, what 0:09:17.840 --> 0:09:21.160 would you have done from a time management perspective clock 0:09:21.200 --> 0:09:24.360 manager perspective there in terms of would you have allowed 0:09:24.840 --> 0:09:27.200 Washington to score the touchdown to try to give their 0:09:27.240 --> 0:09:29.400 team the ball back? How would you have handled that? 0:09:29.440 --> 0:09:31.720 Would you have done anything different there? Yeah? I would have, Chris, 0:09:31.720 --> 0:09:33.280 and listen, it's easy for me to sit here in 0:09:33.679 --> 0:09:37.640 the warm studio and be a Monday morning quarterback or 0:09:37.640 --> 0:09:41.880 a Saturday evening quarterback. After the you know, the facts 0:09:41.880 --> 0:09:45.480 have already displayed themselves. But yeah, I look at that 0:09:45.520 --> 0:09:49.160 situation very similar to the Super Bowl when Green Bay 0:09:49.360 --> 0:09:51.720 was playing to dever Broncos and the Green Bay Packers 0:09:51.720 --> 0:09:54.240 allowed to rail Davis. I believe it was to go 0:09:54.320 --> 0:09:56.079 in and score a touchdown late in the game, just 0:09:56.200 --> 0:09:58.600 so that they would have an opportunity to get the 0:09:58.640 --> 0:10:00.440 ball back. And that's that's something and I would have 0:10:00.440 --> 0:10:03.120 thought about obviously, Chit was trying to hold them there 0:10:03.800 --> 0:10:06.040 for the field goal and try to say some time there, 0:10:06.320 --> 0:10:08.600 but it didn't work out that way. Yeah, I would 0:10:08.600 --> 0:10:10.920 have tried to allow them to go into the end 0:10:11.000 --> 0:10:12.880 zone and scope, but that's easy to say. You know, 0:10:13.040 --> 0:10:15.760 most coaches don't want to give up a touchdown at 0:10:15.760 --> 0:10:17.360 that point there, and they feel that they hold them 0:10:17.360 --> 0:10:19.080 to a field goal, they're going to get the ball 0:10:19.120 --> 0:10:22.679 back with a little more time. The penalty, I believe 0:10:22.679 --> 0:10:26.280 it was that gave the Redskins. I believe another down 0:10:26.600 --> 0:10:29.040 allowed the Redskins to run that clock down a lot 0:10:29.040 --> 0:10:31.640 further than they should have had the Eagles been able 0:10:31.679 --> 0:10:34.160 to get off the field, even if the Redskins had 0:10:34.160 --> 0:10:36.680 scored or kicked the field goal. It's like I said, 0:10:36.800 --> 0:10:38.480 it's easy for me to sit here in the studio 0:10:38.920 --> 0:10:41.720 and in second guests that in place Saturday evening quarterback. 0:10:41.960 --> 0:10:45.000 But the bottom line is you're in desperate mode at 0:10:45.040 --> 0:10:48.160 that time, when in all reality, it shouldn't not have 0:10:48.160 --> 0:10:50.280 come down to know, it really shouldn't not have come 0:10:50.320 --> 0:10:52.800 down that this is a three and what eighteen three 0:10:52.800 --> 0:10:56.200 and eleven team, sorry, three and eleven team that had 0:10:56.280 --> 0:10:59.920 no business being in this game. But it's a divisional 0:11:00.040 --> 0:11:03.600 opponent that's planned at home, that's planned for a little pride. 0:11:03.679 --> 0:11:06.400 And once they hit on a couple plays early, I 0:11:06.480 --> 0:11:10.280 thought RG three gained a lot of confidence and the players, 0:11:10.440 --> 0:11:13.080 the players, I think gaged confidence as well, and they 0:11:13.160 --> 0:11:14.680 knew that they were in a dog fight from that 0:11:14.679 --> 0:11:18.760 point one. At the same time, halftime fourteen to ten. Eagles. Yeah, 0:11:18.880 --> 0:11:22.080 McCoy rushing the ball tremendously in the first half. Eagles 0:11:22.080 --> 0:11:24.439 had some tough sledding, but they finally seemed like they 0:11:24.440 --> 0:11:26.680 were grounded. They finally seemed like they were taking control 0:11:26.679 --> 0:11:29.600 of the game. Open kick off the second half, Andre 0:11:29.760 --> 0:11:33.120 Roberts fumbles, Eagles recover. You think at that point, all right, 0:11:33.640 --> 0:11:36.280 where Eagles are gonna stomp them, you know, stomp the 0:11:36.280 --> 0:11:39.480 throats of Washington and put this thing away. Cody Parkin 0:11:39.520 --> 0:11:41.920 misses the field goal, and then from there it just 0:11:41.920 --> 0:11:43.800 seemed like they were just not able to seize it 0:11:43.840 --> 0:11:45.280 and then all of a sudden. It's another thing that 0:11:45.640 --> 0:11:47.600 was going on throughout the course of the the season, another theme. 0:11:47.640 --> 0:11:50.880 Here Eagles fall behind by a double digit margin and 0:11:51.000 --> 0:11:53.160 have to work their way back. They were able to 0:11:53.160 --> 0:11:55.120 do so to tie the game, but they couldn't just 0:11:55.160 --> 0:11:56.720 get over the hump there at the end. But you 0:11:56.760 --> 0:12:00.400 bring up a great point there when you force a 0:12:00.440 --> 0:12:03.160 fumble coming out and half and you're up about four already, 0:12:03.200 --> 0:12:05.320 you have an opportunity to go up twenty one to 0:12:05.440 --> 0:12:08.640 ten there. And now the red Skins, as a losing team, 0:12:08.720 --> 0:12:11.720 are gonna be sitting on that sideline saying, oh, here 0:12:11.760 --> 0:12:15.920 it comes, Here comes the avalanche of points and yards, 0:12:15.960 --> 0:12:18.920 and uh, all right, we're gonna send it to Fax Field. 0:12:18.960 --> 0:12:30.959 Here's Chip Kelly. You had two turnovers and thirteen penalties. Hey, 0:12:30.960 --> 0:12:32.720 you're not gonna win a football game that way. I mean, 0:12:32.760 --> 0:12:34.080 we put them on, left him on the field too 0:12:34.120 --> 0:12:35.960 many times on third down where we got penalties to 0:12:36.440 --> 0:12:38.360 extend drives. You felt like you had to stop. But 0:12:39.280 --> 0:12:42.120 thirteen penalties and two turnovers isn't gonna win football game 0:12:42.120 --> 0:12:45.160 in this league. Feel like your team, I mean delaying 0:12:45.240 --> 0:12:48.160 losses and they come out with that. Yeah, I thought, 0:12:48.240 --> 0:12:49.600 you know, you battle back and you end up tiying 0:12:49.600 --> 0:12:52.120 the game twenty four UM. But we didn't do enough 0:12:52.160 --> 0:12:54.680 good things to win obviously. Thirteen penalties missed, two field goals, 0:12:55.080 --> 0:13:00.280 two turnovers not enough to win a football game. I 0:13:00.440 --> 0:13:01.800 was on the other side and I knew it threw 0:13:01.800 --> 0:13:03.760 it behind. It looked like he threw it behind Jordan. 0:13:04.000 --> 0:13:06.160 I don't know. I think they were bringing they were 0:13:06.200 --> 0:13:07.520 bringing a blitz. I don't know if he had a 0:13:07.600 --> 0:13:08.880 chance to set his feet and throw the ball, but 0:13:08.920 --> 0:13:11.319 I know the ball was behind Jordan, not being able 0:13:11.360 --> 0:13:17.199 to sif that was big. You know, you want to 0:13:17.240 --> 0:13:18.920 come away with points. Obviously, you start off. It's a 0:13:18.920 --> 0:13:21.319 good momentum swing. Malcolm makes a nice play on the 0:13:21.400 --> 0:13:23.440 kickoff cover we get we get the ball out there, 0:13:23.480 --> 0:13:25.800 you think you're at least coming away with three UM. 0:13:25.880 --> 0:13:28.040 You always want seven in those situations. But you know, 0:13:28.120 --> 0:13:29.720 that's kind of what the game was like all night. 0:13:32.559 --> 0:13:37.040 Was there any consideration given it? Just no. We didn't 0:13:37.080 --> 0:13:40.880 talk about that. Now. He was clear, he was one 0:13:40.920 --> 0:13:42.480 hundred percent. He kicked all week in practice, So I 0:13:42.520 --> 0:13:44.079 don't think it's got anything to do with that. I 0:13:44.160 --> 0:13:46.160 just think he missed. It looked like he missed in 0:13:46.200 --> 0:13:47.719 the same spot every time, even though one he made, 0:13:47.720 --> 0:13:49.000 it looked like he pushed it to the right. So 0:13:52.320 --> 0:13:54.160 some of those people, you try to get some help 0:13:54.200 --> 0:13:57.240 over the top, you know, um, in certain coverages and 0:13:57.400 --> 0:14:00.680 and uh and get matched up with them. But I thought, 0:14:00.800 --> 0:14:02.600 you know, we felt like our corners could stay with them. 0:14:02.600 --> 0:14:04.360 But obviously they didn't and he had a good game. 0:14:07.000 --> 0:14:08.439 I just needed to get someone else in there and 0:14:08.480 --> 0:14:09.880 see what he could do. So put no one in 0:14:09.920 --> 0:14:15.080 there and then brought fletchback and Dime. So yeah, a lot, 0:14:15.160 --> 0:14:17.520 they played a lot. They played very deep in coverage 0:14:17.520 --> 0:14:19.600 and played off of people. You know, they they were 0:14:19.640 --> 0:14:21.560 down a couple of linebackers. I think, you know, we 0:14:21.680 --> 0:14:23.480 felt like Zach could exploit them in there a little bit. 0:14:23.480 --> 0:14:24.720 And that's you know, he had a really big game 0:14:24.720 --> 0:14:27.000 against those guys, kind of operating giving us the ball 0:14:27.000 --> 0:14:28.320 in the middle of the field a lot, and that's 0:14:28.320 --> 0:14:31.000 what you know, that's what we took. But um, you know, 0:14:31.080 --> 0:14:33.640 couldn't didn't convert the red zone. Um miss those two 0:14:33.680 --> 0:14:35.240 field goals offense. If he didn't get it done, you 0:14:37.600 --> 0:14:41.920 m we got one game left. We're gonna go get 0:14:42.000 --> 0:14:43.600 ready and get focused for the New York Giants, and 0:14:44.240 --> 0:14:46.080 got to win that game, and then there's a lot 0:14:46.120 --> 0:14:47.560 of other things that have to happen besides that that 0:14:47.600 --> 0:14:48.920 we have no control over. But the only thing we 0:14:48.960 --> 0:14:50.440 do have control over is getting ready for New York. 0:14:50.480 --> 0:14:57.080 So I thought he played well in this game up 0:14:57.160 --> 0:14:59.560 until that turnover, you know, the one that Kerrigan stripped them. 0:14:59.560 --> 0:15:02.200 I don't think he saw him coming, um, coming around Lane. 0:15:02.240 --> 0:15:04.000 But besides that, I thought he threw the ball well. Um, 0:15:04.040 --> 0:15:05.400 but you can't turn the ball over in a critical 0:15:05.440 --> 0:15:08.560 situation like that. The struggled about three sacks and the 0:15:08.600 --> 0:15:11.240 first at what was going on there? Adjustments, Um, I 0:15:11.280 --> 0:15:13.200 think Jeff made a couple of adjustments up front. We 0:15:13.240 --> 0:15:15.560 got beat on a couple of twists just passing things off. 0:15:15.600 --> 0:15:17.760 I think he made some good adjustments and things settled 0:15:17.760 --> 0:15:19.800 down a little bit. I think uh Lane did a 0:15:19.840 --> 0:15:21.560 better job getting used to what Ryan was gonna do 0:15:21.640 --> 0:15:23.960 to him. Um. He's really a dynamic pass rusher as 0:15:24.000 --> 0:15:26.120 we all know. Um. But I thought I thought as 0:15:26.120 --> 0:15:27.640 a game when along those guys did a good job. 0:15:27.880 --> 0:15:31.600 You see, Jackson had his second straight. You can back 0:15:31.600 --> 0:15:33.960 to your original decision to really soon. Now I'm thinking 0:15:33.960 --> 0:15:36.440 about the football game. Is this not the first time 0:15:36.440 --> 0:15:38.760 you stood here talking about turners? And now is this 0:15:38.880 --> 0:15:42.200 team laughing disappointed? No, they're not lacking discipline. We're just 0:15:42.240 --> 0:15:43.600 not doing the right things doing a football game. But 0:15:43.640 --> 0:15:47.280 don't think they're lacking discipline. There was ye got stopped 0:15:47.320 --> 0:15:50.040 in the second half. Yeah, we didn't get a good 0:15:50.040 --> 0:15:51.480 push up front. Didn't look like you look like we 0:15:51.520 --> 0:15:53.320 got knocked back a little bit. Um. And obviously, if 0:15:53.320 --> 0:15:55.200 you're gonna win games like this, you gotta you gotta 0:15:55.240 --> 0:15:56.960 convert on third down like that, and you know we 0:15:57.040 --> 0:15:59.200 knew it. Um. I don't think there was anybody coming 0:15:59.200 --> 0:16:00.600 for you, but we just didn't a real good push 0:16:00.680 --> 0:16:02.720 up from Did you consider going for it after that 0:16:03.000 --> 0:16:04.840 on fourth down? Though? I mean we were in we 0:16:04.880 --> 0:16:06.880 were normal field goal range. That wasn't It wasn't like 0:16:06.960 --> 0:16:08.480 it was a long kick that we were attempting at 0:16:08.520 --> 0:16:10.120 that point in time. So at the end of the half, 0:16:12.920 --> 0:16:18.080 what's up the decision? A very small fuel goal. Yeah, 0:16:18.080 --> 0:16:19.720 it was too far out. We know pre game where 0:16:19.720 --> 0:16:20.680 he was gonna go. We had to get the ball 0:16:20.680 --> 0:16:22.200 inside of the thirty five yard land were inside the 0:16:22.240 --> 0:16:25.480 thirty five so now because if you turn the ball 0:16:25.520 --> 0:16:29.960 over there then they get a shot. So I think 0:16:30.000 --> 0:16:31.600 he did a good job of reading the quarterback size 0:16:31.640 --> 0:16:33.160 and understanding where he was trying to do. I think 0:16:33.160 --> 0:16:34.480 a lot of times r G three was trying to 0:16:34.480 --> 0:16:36.600 look him off, you know, as the high safety below. 0:16:36.600 --> 0:16:37.920 He played a lot of man free coverage, and then 0:16:37.960 --> 0:16:39.000 you got to do a good job of reading the 0:16:39.040 --> 0:16:40.720 quarterback and react him back on that playoff thought he 0:16:40.720 --> 0:16:45.120 did a good job. Now, Belly's up in the box. 0:16:46.080 --> 0:16:48.000 We talk on the headset. You know, I knew what 0:16:48.080 --> 0:16:50.640 was gonna go on. So second game you have to 0:16:50.680 --> 0:16:52.480 spend a lot of bullets just getting back into it 0:16:52.600 --> 0:16:57.240 ties just so to maintain that sort of littlementum. Now, 0:16:57.360 --> 0:16:58.800 I mean, that's what you that's what you gotta do. 0:16:59.280 --> 0:17:00.720 You know, when I think of out of it we created, 0:17:00.760 --> 0:17:02.480 we put ourselves in a hole, you know, and the 0:17:02.640 --> 0:17:05.560 with the penalties and um, you know, extending drives and 0:17:05.640 --> 0:17:07.719 that that's on us. But you know, you can't sit 0:17:07.760 --> 0:17:09.480 there and say, hey, we expended too much energy getting 0:17:09.520 --> 0:17:11.040 back in the game. We we had the ball at 0:17:11.040 --> 0:17:14.159 the end um driving put ourselves in a situation to win, 0:17:14.200 --> 0:17:16.520 and we didn't do it. We didn't. Next, you had 0:17:16.560 --> 0:17:18.680 some tough one on one situations last week too. Was 0:17:18.720 --> 0:17:21.320 there any thought to making sure he had safety helped 0:17:21.480 --> 0:17:24.080 out here against Sean? Now? I mean we we we 0:17:24.160 --> 0:17:25.680 had a game plan going in, you know, and felt 0:17:25.720 --> 0:17:29.560 like we could match up and obviously didn't work. I 0:17:29.640 --> 0:17:31.800 think their linebackers were really banged up. You know, they 0:17:31.880 --> 0:17:34.440 didn't have any I think Perry Raley was the only 0:17:34.480 --> 0:17:36.840 guy that was that's been a normal guy from Keenan Robinson, 0:17:36.880 --> 0:17:38.800 their number one cover guy had been out, so we 0:17:38.920 --> 0:17:41.920 felt like that was something we could exploit. Inside, we 0:17:42.040 --> 0:17:44.560 went into the decision to keep Fletcher and that kind 0:17:44.600 --> 0:17:48.000 of starting spot up until the latter stages given up. 0:17:48.040 --> 0:17:52.359 His troubles are less. What went into it. Yeah, we 0:17:52.480 --> 0:17:53.800 talked about it and felt like he was the best 0:17:53.840 --> 0:17:56.680 guy to give us a shot on on on those 0:17:56.800 --> 0:18:01.639 rough and answer commies in terms of yeah, I mean, 0:18:01.680 --> 0:18:05.240 I just saw the replay in the stadium, So it 0:18:05.280 --> 0:18:10.360 doesn't matter when I think I'm not in charge. So thanks, 0:18:10.400 --> 0:18:17.719 hes all right, Chip Kelly leaving the podium follow when 0:18:17.720 --> 0:18:20.359 the Eagles twenty seven to twenty four loss at the 0:18:20.480 --> 0:18:23.159 hands of Washington.
