akers put his hand on bradshaws face mask on kick return
and ward or bradshaw did not step out of bounds on that 3rd down when he dove forward

I agree that was a bad spot. Looks like I'm on the right side of this fix! Whew.

HELL
Someone, anyone, please explain to me why so many teams from like the 1 or 2 yard line like to go in tight formation and run right up the gut wiht 10 300 lb guys in the way. Saw it with OK Thursday, and even though Philly scored here they probably would have did that run a few more times.

Call me a nut, spread the field than run up the middle, or go tight formation fake handoff roll out the QB and bingo hit the WIDE open TE.

No Shit...:mad:
It has caused me more frustration watching teams do this over and over again. How many times do you see a team get a big play, almost score, and then try three straight runs up the midde to no avail.

When I am watching a game, I will be yelling at the runner, who has just broken off a big one and on his way to the endzone, to "GET IN THE FUCKING ENDZONE!!!" Because I know that if they stop him short, there's a better than average chance they won't get the touchdown.

I've never been a football coach, BUT... most inside the two-yard line going in playcalling is horrible, especially in the NFL.

Let's go Eagles - honestly that safety has almost helped them out - they have the field position back, just yielded 2 points, instead of most likely 3 if they had to punt right away...come on Eagles - hope the dogs roll to 3-0 on the weekend!
