well, Celek had the ball when pile cleared, but they had already made the call.  at the time i wondered how they could make the call so quickly, but i just assumed that the referee coming in from the other side had a clear view of a packers player falling on the ball

just heard them talking about this on WIP then went to the emb and checked it out

spadaro on the reed fumble:

"Am I the only one who thinks Brent Celek came up with that Reed fumble at the end of the game and that the Eagles got rooked a little bit? Why wasn't there a review?"

hahahahaha!

This may be a new low in homerism, even for Spads.

On Reid's side here, at least Westbrook had 25+ touches elsewhere yesterday, including 20 carries.  Usually, he is kept out of the return game and also underused in the run game.

Still, I am having trouble figuring out how this team completely forgot to have an NFL-caliber return man catching punts.  Hell, they would have been better off not having a returner.  Seriously.  Just let the punts roll out and die.

Bethel is a KR, so he'd be replacing Reed.

I have no issue with Reed.  He didn't make any mistakes on kickoffs, and he was put in a bad position in the middle of the game to also be fielding punts.

It's Reid/Segrest that should be shot.  Like I said, at worst you tell the return man just to run away, or you put on an all-out block and have no return man.

I think I have probably watched at least a couple hundred football games now...and that was the first time I have ever seen anyone dive for a punt.

One of the single dumbest things I have ever seen a player do.

Still, there are no less than 10 guys on the Eagles' roster or coaching staff that are more to blame for the loss than the fencejumper.

you have no problem with Reed, but have a problem with Donovan....terrific analysis

reed should not be in the nfl...only because andy is familiar with him is he not at home in florida right now....he cant play safety and isnt a good return guy...so why the hell is he taking up a roster spot on this team
