Hey Andy Defenders....

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

seriously, it shouldnt have come down to a 4th down in the first place. he did make a nice call on that called back 3rd down conversion.

No, you're remembering incorrectly.  The called back play (which was roughly a 15-yard gain) was a successful 4th and 10 conversion.  That's what made it even more ridiculous - that it was only a 5 yard penalty and suddenly Andy turns to punting as the best strategy.

It was just a horrendous decision.

[Diomedes]

It was baffling.  I was stunned.  I couldn't comprehend what was happening.  It was a great embarassment.

[Geowhizzer]

Like Dio, I was stunned.  Numb, really.  I could not fathom that, with less than two minutes left, Reid would punt the ball away.

Un-freaking-believable.

[Feva]

Me... like a fool continued to hope for some sort of fake because I couldn't wrap my head around the fact that Andy was actually punting the ball away with 1:56 left on the clock.  I just couldn't understand it.  Then it hit me right when Diggler's foot hit the ball that he had just ended the Eagles season.

Somebody shoot his fat ass in the head.

So is there anyone left on the "don't fire Andy Reid" side of this discussion? I have to believe that some of you idiots still aren't convinced.

[Quasimoto]

How anyone could even want to defend him right now is beyond me.   I couldn't sleep at night knowing I defended Reid for punting the Eagles season away. 

What an asshat.

[The BIGSTUD]

I'm not going to call for Andy's head, but if he gets fired I wouldn't be upset at all. Andy Reid won't be fired though so totally moot. Banner even said him and Lurie's confidence in him is unwavering.

Banner even said him and Lurie's confidence in him is unwavering.

Translation:  No one gives head like Big Red.

[MadMarchHare]

Reid needs to be ass-farged with an Ebola infested cattle prod.
He needs to suffer at least as much as he's made us suffer.

[Rome]

Banner even said him and Lurie's confidence in him is unwavering.

Translation:  No one gives head like Big Red.

Thanks man.  I just threw up a little.

fire reid!

If they fire andy and hire someone new, there might be a year adjustment period for both the coach and the players.

If not, we have 10 more years of bullshtein.

Ill take option 1 please.

Sean Payton = 1 year adjustment period from 3-13 to NFCCG

[rjs246]

At this point I would take a couple of 'adjustment' years to know that my team isn't coached by someone who passes 65% of the time and punts with less than 2 minutes left while trailing by 3 in a playoff game.

[DH]

Well yes, Paytons results are best case scenario.

Im saying that Im willing to take the worst case scenario in order to get this shtein right for the long term.
