I agree.

This O-line better wise the hell up. I wanna see what Kilgore has to bring to the table, might as well, he can't be any worse than Chilo.

Was Chilo in there today? I thought Snyder got the start?

Fricken miracle Smith even got the pass off! Horrible call, wrong time to go against your tendencies, even worse O-line play lately the O-line HAS sucked.

It should have been caught. That said, given how the play unfolded... Alex did such an amazing job keeping it alive, and it is difficult to expect Kendall to catch that.

Should've been caught. But hardly worth the debate. It wasn't the reason we lost.

Great play by Alex to even have a shot there, but IMO no way should you say "Kendall should've caught" that ball . He was completely horizontal, making a ballsy attempt at a catch. IMO you can't let the game get to that point. No way you can put the blame on Kendall there, that's f**kING b******t!!!!

NO, not a chance. If it was caught, that's an AMAZING catch. He's a RB, you can't depend on a RB to make a horizontal, top ten catch of the season kind of catch to win a game.

Not if Ginn finds the long throw at the beginning of the game for a TD, or Edwards runs the back shoulder route correctly and catches the ball, or Walker catches an easy throw that would have converted at 3rd down, or if Crabtree could time his jump to go up and beat a defender.

Certainly Hunter should have caught the ball. In this league, when you get both hands on the ball at the same time, and it goes through your palms, you should catch it!!!

This they both just quit. They both suck as Wr's Need more Crabs,VD and Williams.

Proves why the #1 draft pick next spring MUST be a WR. Look at what Larry Fitzgerald did with a very mediocre QB today.

Been saying and spot on analysis.

After all of that time Alex is running for his and out teams life, out wr's can't get wide (I mean wide open)? Crazy.

The standing there was like seeing a deer in the middle of the road looking into the cars headlights, becoming transfixed and can't move.

Would be funny if not for the loss. Don't understand the love for Ginn by our staff.

If Williams doesn't become the #2 next week I'll be pretty upset with the coachs. Will show a lack of player eval.

f**k this b******t.....LMAO....so the blame is all on Ginn??? Ginn had a chance to score in the red zone like 6-7 times and failed? Is that what you're saying?

It was catchable....but I'm questioning the play call. 4th-1 and play-action? Really? You have a better chance of a first down with a qb sneak, a run up the middle, or end around.

Nobody is saying he lost the game, just that it was a catchable ball that could've given us a chance to win. I'm more worried about the OL giving up 20 sacks in the last 3 games.
