I'm headed over to check out the "Merv Would Have Rings if He Had Foles".

You can stick with watching guys like Jerry Claiborne, Marvin Screwus, and Bill Curry if you want....I've seen several coaches coach exactly like Pederson.

Mistakes are erased when later execution wins games. 

Moot point.

Don't give up hope. They had to let this one go so they can continue to fix the league, without being too obvious.

You just implied that the former wasn't crazy.

Yep. Foles is going to write his check all the way to another team.

Pederson is an aggressive coach. He made an aggressive call there, and twice on 4th down....including a trick play.  It would have been a mistake to take his foot off the gas.

Exactly. The problem when playing the pats is getting scared of losing the lead and playing it safe. It's happened so many times before.

Super Bowl. Balls out, all game. 

I told my son before the game started...if i was the opposing coach, if we started the 4th quarter with a 50-0 lead, i stay up tempo trying to score every single drive until the clock says 0:00.

Scared of losing the lead? Playing it safe? Where have we seen that before? Surely not in Cincy...

Why didn't Malcolm Butler play? Seriously one of the dumbest coaching moves I have ever seen.
Also not to be this guy but Brady was the best player out there tonight to get 505 freaking yards with three Touchdowns and no picks is awesome to do against that defense.

Yeah....that was pretty stupid.

Brady put on a helluva show....but to be fair, there were 4 throws that probably should have been INTs.

Second most wins...tied for most losses with the Broncos.

Yep.  They called it the way instant replay was set up:  There has to be conclusive evidence to overturn the call on the field.

And the game winning TD was NOT the same as the Jesse James TD.  Ertz was a runner when he dove.  (Different from the Dez Bryant play too.)

I still think JJ's hand was under the ball, or at the very least it was close enough to not overturn, but still completely different than the super bowl play.  And the right call.

You know what I love about the call is the many Squeeler fans all to real bitter tears of conspiracy theory-land.. THEY WERE ROBBED ! HAR HAR HAR! 
Yeah ,I know . Sympathy is between a  turd and a bad social disease . 

Great game. Nice work by the Eagles.
