NFL GDT: Week 15 - Part 2 - SNF conclusion & MNF

[Roboturner913]

There's nothing particularly bad about using your timeouts early if your two-minute drill is super efficient and people know what they have to do. That's probably another weakness of the Rams offense - and it's not even a knock on them, it's just they haven't been doing it long enough. It's the sort of thing that takes years to develop.

 

[Gene Parmesan]

Saints do the same thing. The thought is that if your offense is as efficient and effective as they expect, you don’t need them.


Doug ran the football and shortened the game as a result. Goff looks less sure about things without Kupp.

It's all about pressure. Make Goff move.

Foles came in against the Rams last year, didn’t start.

I still think it's too late to catch up for a playoff spot, as the Cowboys aren't losing to Tampa Bay next Sunday. It is something to build on for next season though. The number of injuries to Eagles on defense hit a ridiculous level and they predictably paid for it. "Next man up" ran it's course.

Eagles are still alive for the wild card.

Win their last 2, and have Minneosta lose 1 of their last 2, and carolina lose 1 of their last 2.

they could also get in with seattle losing out

I think there are a few little things that have slowed down the Rams offense (Gurley a bit banged up, Kupp out, etc) but to me the main thing is that teams are getting just a bit more pressure through that OL on Goff and Gurley. That OL was playing as a top unit for the first half of the season and while still good, are just a tick lower now. I also wonder if the increased snaps for a receiving TE (Everett) instead of the better blocker (Higbee) isn't helping, either.

Because of that extra pressure, Goff's timing is a bit off and his passes don't look as crisp. Missing some passes completely, but more than anything the receivers are having to adjust as Goff isn't leading them like he was before so they aren't able to create the same yards after the catch.

I know they're still mathematically alive, it was just an opinion. There's a lot of ifs in there for a a team that already has a back-up QB and other injuries.

[Gene Parmesan]

Nice to see the Panthers field isn't dirt yet like it usually is in December.

 

[SaintsThomas]

I dont see Cam Newton play often. He looks.. winded?

 

[Spring in Fialta]

f*** that was a nice throw and catch!

 

[Gene Parmesan]

He wasn't touched.

 

[Roboturner913]

that's some nice play design having the TE cave on his side then go back the other way to pick up the blitz
