We have freakin midgets on our team. Look at Cutler hes going after his biggest recievers in the endzone.Cumberland is not a threat and Amaro will be a great target in a few years
I don't know why Marty is determined to throw it on the goal line, especially in a game where Ivory was going ham.
I would love to get into why Ivory should have the full load instead of CJ but thats a different thread for a different day
Amaro nearly screwed us with his poor route running. His lack of awareness of where the first down marker was nearly cost us the game before we had a chance to even get down the field.
Geno left points on the field with the red zone pick. Worst case scenario we shouldve gotten 3. You also have to credit the Bears defense as well.
its not all on him, but alot of it is. on first and goal on a broken play when you are outside the pocket you need to throw that ball away. you cant be throwing a pick there. just irresponsible. on the flipside, we have a coaching staff that doesnt preach ball protection. and we have an OC who runs some VERY suspect goaline calls. Why are we running a QB keeper on 3rd and goal?
Also, Chris Ivory gets it going late in the game. then we bring in chris johnson and ivory doesnt get antoher touch???
Marty's had this issue in Philly. In the red zone, he tightens up and shies from the run and he often put Vick in shit spots and it led to Akers FG after FG. He's a good signal caller outside the 20 but inside it, the field lessens and he overthinks himself. He isn't changing, you take it with him. Its frustrating. Geno has not been his lone victim with this in the red zone is what I am getting at. This has been with Marty since his Eagle days.
Marty's playing was terrible and whatever ballerina move he made geno do on the first int needs to go. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I'm getting pretty weary of MM running in shotgun formation so often. Is Geno's footwork really that bad that he can't take the ball from under center and hand off?? If so, then this team is in a world of hurt and there will be no consistent ground game. Running out of shotgun just kills the downhill momentum of the back as he basically has to start flat footed for the most part 5 yards behind the LOS. The ground game is suffering because of it.
To be fair the Eagles ran a lot of shotgun with MM as the OC and Vick at QB, a lot of Shotgun is nothing new.
