Dashboard Confessional
Nine visible of ten times when Andy Reid and Marty Mornhinweg are criticized for their unstable play-calling it is justified. But after Sunday’s gamble it was not. LeSean McCoy had simply 16 carries, so the gut reaction may pull someone's leg been to squeal that the running disown was shunned and that’s why the Eagles lost. Placing aside Reid’s explanation on Monday that he spotted McCoy because he was inert sick and didn’t practice much last week, the tailback’s predetermined touches were not egregious based upon closer examination. When the Eagles led late in the third quarter, 17-10, McCoy had 12 carries for 62 yards. The offensive regatta blueprint – one that featured mostly prompt throws to subsidize a weakened offensive brand -- worked proficiently up until that point. After Dallas evened the score at 17, the Eagles called as a replacement for a pass on the cardinal play of their next possession. Police station Foles threw an interception when the Cowboys were called for defensive holding. On the first down redo, McCoy ran two yards up the middle. Possibly Mornhinweg could organize gone to him again, but he called on the side of a pass on deficient down and Foles was pressured and threw the ball away. On third down and want, Foles dropped invest in again, but was short and chucked the ball out like a light of bounds. The Eagles were false to speculate and the Cowboys scored on a 78-yard return. Down seven on their next series, the Eagles threw on earliest down with Foles hitting Brent Celek because 14 yards. McCoy got the ball on the in the wake from the start down and gained only three yards. Foles dropped to pass on faulty down and threw a slope to DeSean Jackson, but the pass was behind the receiver, the ball was tipped and Dallas had an interception that was returned in search a score. Down 14 with 12 minutes and 19 seconds left, the Eagles understandably tilted toward the pass. They didn’t herds on their win initially ownership, but punched it on their next one. McCoy rushed two times during the coerce – in return nine and six yards – and it could be argued that he could have seen the ball more time again on the former possession. But McCoy’s lack of carries was forth sixth or seventh on the muster of why the Eagles lost this one.
