    Misery loves company...I've found myself hanging out with Washington fans these past few years because they know worse pain that I do lately.

    I have to admit, that Ronnie Brown play is one on the funniest NFL bloopers I have ever seen. Seriously, what was he thinking? His explanation doesn't even make any sense.

    i wanted nnamdi don't get me wrong, and he's still awesome...but that's the problem with picking guys up for a new defense and new d-coordinator with about 10 minutes to learn it.

    it's about picking up a guy who excelled in man to man press coverage for 8 years then telling him to play zone.

    the coaching is horrible on this team right now. all phases.

    ...apparently that ronnie brown goal line disaster was a designed pass play for him...without desean jackson, lesean mccoy, jason avant or jeremy maclin on the field. i don't get it.

    and on that morgan 30 yard td catch? juan sends 7. stop blitzing you dope! :lol: oh boy

    Im so sick and tired of the smug im better/smarter then you attitude. From clock mangement to horrible challanges to HORENDOUS play calling. In the Atl game Reid thought he was to passive with Kafka,so whats he do? He calls for a bomb his 1st play the following week. Then the NYG game he said he ran too much so whats he do? He throws it 49 times when being up 20pts. Not to mention Shady is avg over 6yds a carry. Not to mention when u run the ball u keep the clock running.

    I'm so sick and tired of not valuing certain positions. From the Lb's to Safetys to Def Cordinators. Hate to break the news to ya Andy Jim Johnsons no longer here. And just because he did things a certain way doesn't mean others can do the same. You let ur def leader go 2yrs ago and have paid for it ever since. Leadership goes along way and that is something this def doesn't have. Im so fed up with this Coach and i truly don't see how others can't be.
    Go Birds!!!!

    the worst part was the play call gave him an option to throw the ball....but desean jackson, lesean mccoy, jeremy maclin and jason avant were all not in the game. perplexing all around. :?

    No...the best is when Owen Schmitt is in on goal line. They never do play action with him so when he's in the game you know he's getting the ball.

    Hence being stuffed in the backfield each time. They did the same crap when Buckhalter was here.

    Anatomy Of An Awful Goal Line Play

    Two days later and I still can't wrap my head around the Ronnie Brown play. Of all the hard to explain, crazy things that have happened this season, that one may be the worst. It may have been the most poorly planned, ill-executed single play that I've ever seen. Let's break it down.

    First, here's what Andy Reid had to say when asked about that particular play.

    "Well, you know what, I didn't do a very good job on that one. I probably should have done a different play right there. And he did have a run pass option."

    The video is below, so try to checking out the first few moments a few a times and you'll notice a few things. First, Andy says it was a run/pass option. Pretty much every option play I've ever seen starts with the RB going parallel to the line of scrimmage, because that gives the back some actual room to throw. On this play, Ronnie Brown is running directly at the line, so if he did have an option to pass, I have no idea how he would have ever used it (well, we know how he used it...). Then, you'll see that just one guy goes out on a pass pattern. That appears to be Clay Harbor, who is lined up on the left. He actually looks like he might have been open, but it didn't really matter because the guy he was lined up against at the snap, flies by him and grabs Ronnie Brown almost as soon as he is handed the ball. In the meantime, Owen Schmitt was just standing there not blocking anyone or seemingly doing anything at all.

    To compound the problem Brown faced, guard Kyle Devan had fallen on the ground in front of him. So even if the rusher hadn't come clean, he still would have had to leap over his own guy, who fell down presumably trying to pull block. This is quite literally a case of the Eagles getting in their own way.

    And if you look at the rest of the line... Jason Kelce gets driven back, Brent Celek is pushed all the way into the backfield and Todd Herremans is pushed back as well (and he's not one of these "undersized" guys). Only Jason Peters and King Dunlap appear to get any kid of push. So even if all the things I described in the first couple paragraphs hadn't gone wrong, the play still had very little chance of success because it simply wasn't blocked at all.

    And then of course, the coup de gras. Ronnie Brown inexplicably just throws the ball away as he's being tackled. It was like putting on big absurd cherry on top of a fail sundae

    personally i think Reid is just covering for his player here and Brown just royally fucked up.

    I dont think Brown was just tossing the ball for no reason

    If you see the side angle replay Owen Schmitt (the goal line assassin) is standing there looking to the backfield

    I bet he was the intended target

    oh it was absolutely designed...just incredibly badly. not even a question. the first words out of browns mouth after the game was that he had the option to pass (just shouldn't have done so as he was falling to the ground :lol: )

    i'm actually sorry for posting this. i want to just erase that game from my mind from this point forward. :x
