They know very well that Alex doesn't have the ability to avoid the rush nor does he have the moxie to change the play at the line and bomb it away to Ginn or Davis.

We need to keep running that across-the-field misdirection pass to VD until they stop it, then.

lol, true. I think I've seen that same play 2 seasons ago vs. the seahawks.

That was a pretty play. Smith said that they had been working on it for weeks, but had never used it. I HOPE that we'll see more of those creative plays against the Iggles as we slowly open up the playbook.

I do not recall Alex throwing the ball in the dirt .... i do remember him throwing the ball low to Crabtree and it hitting his hands and crabtree not catching it ... is this the throw in the dirt to which you are refering to?

He skipped one this week. His accuracy was worse yesterday than in the first two weeks, IMO.

Which play did he skip the ball???? i must have missed that one ... i did see the low ball that almost hit the ground, that one was really low, but i thought it shouldve been caught .... i thought he only threw 2-3 bad passes all game, the one to Morgan was really bad thought ...

I remember it happening. I gotta watch the film to be sure.

It definitly happened. It was on the play Smith scrambled out of the pocket and almost ran, but threw it to the reciever and it skipped off the dirt. I'm pretty sure it was to Crabtree, because I remember thinking, I wonder what Crabs is thinking right now.... No doubt is was on Alex.

the one to crabtree hit crabs right in the hands he just dropped it

The pass that was low and hit crabtree in the hands was early in the game. Later on alex ran out the top of the pocket as it was collapsing, no one was around him and crabtree was about ten yards in front of him (open) and alex bounced it about 3 feet in front of him.

He skipped one to Morgan I believe. The one you are referring to that bounced "about 3 feet" in front of Crabtree actually hit Crabtree in the hands (it would have been a tough catch) as he was sliding to make the catch. The one that Crabtree blatantly dropped was a completely different play.

Yea that was a cool play and I love it when they use a little creativity on offense, as long as it works of course, lol. Having said that, I will settle for quick slants and screens plays that work.

The pass im talking about was not a drop, it wasn't a pass that hit anyones hands. It hit the turf and it happened when alex was running out the top of the pocket. Doesnt matter what receiver it was and the receiver was standing up not sliding.
