Key Factors in the Loss

Philly played the best of the wideouts in my opinion, without a doubt. Funch had a few nice plays but couldn't get consistent separation. Philly was wide open all game before the concussion, picked up 80 yards and Cam missed him wide open twice (first pass from him and then another later). He had one possible drop (not sure if it was official or not, there was some contact from the DB) that I thought he absolutely should have caught and didn't but other than that he played amazingly and was easily our best wideout this postseason.

Yea, no doubt.  Philly made a few plays without any major f-ups like all the other WRs, so he definitely was the best out there.

You can't pin this loss on any one person or play.  This was one of those games that it seemed a lot of people took turns making mistakes.

Missing open receivers, dropping passes, personal fouls, allowing pressure, not seeing pressure, fumbles, missed tackles, missed fg, confusion on punt coverage, and I'm sure I'm missing something.

We couldn't seem to get out of our own way.

Hopefully we can build on this year.

    • He’s set financially for life barring complete fiscal lunacy. He has $12.3 million guaranteed. Think about that. Twelve million three hundred thousand dollars, he’ll be 28 years old when his contract is up and he’s completely forgotten about if he never plays another down in the NFL if he so chooses. Say after taxes he ‘only’ brings home $6M (fire your accountant territory) and parks $4M in a run of the mill mutual fund… good God… What I’m getting at, IF homie ain’t feeling the NFL, he has 12,300,000 reasons to take the fewest NFL edition ass kickings as possible while waiting out his very wealthy non-football future.  Obviously completely talking out of my a$$ with this… but if you hated contact, didn’t want to live with a completely wrecked body for the rest of your life and you know you’re set financially… what path would you take, assuming you’re cool with being a quitter (not calling him a quitter, I’m just playing out a scenario)? Why do so many first rounders bust? Where was he before his one year wonder if he was such a stud?  Everybody likes the dude on a personal level. How could you not? …. but I like seeing a winning product even more. He doesn’t play like his head is in the game. The Why is where the speculation lies and helps to clarify if his issues are ‘fixable’ or not. 
    • Fantasy tiers? Who gives a fug
    • Very likely that he needs another season or two to really find his groove.  It very well may not be here where he has his best season. He’s a physical standout, but he can’t seem to get his focus and mentality right. That non-catch where he didn’t get his second foot in bounds was a truly awful display of this. Every professional in this game makes that catch.  Last week, it was clear that he wasn’t playing in top gear.  Like so many young people these days, he wants success without working hard.  He wants maximum reward for minimum effort. He wants to rest on talent. But talent alone won’t cut it.  The foolishness of youth and inexperience.  He can have it all if he wants it.  Seems like he’s content to be a social media star and a forgettable football player.
