You still going on about this BS? Where was this play at the end of regulation? Absolutely casual take thinking Andy has some undefendable plays saved when he needs them.

This isn't anything special. You catch a defense in a bad look with your playcall and you get this happening. Kyle does this all the time as well you just don't remember those plays because they're not SB game winners.

Exactly. You just hit the nail on the head.

NO ONE remembers Super Bowl losers.

I dunno you guys can't seem to stop talking about them...

Weird right? Discussing the team we support.

Technically you guys are discussing Kyle, and from what I've read the past few pages I don't see much support from one side.

Who gave Kyle a pass for this? If your arguments and takes are make belief or hypotheticals there isn't much to your take...

NY and other posters criticize Reid for almost f**king up when Kyle has been involved in actual, massive f**k ups (Solomon Thomas and Trey Lance, two of the top-5 busts in NFL history).

Nobody is criticizing Andy Reid, simply pointing out that it wasn't his great plan to draft Mahomes. He's lucky Denver stopped him from making a gigantic mistake.

Where do we think Andy Reid would be right now without Chris Jones or Paxton Lynch instead of Mahomes? Do we think he's a SB winning HC?

This is what some people refuse to understand. It took Andy Reid lucking into Mahomes to suddenly become great and somehow infallible by some people's standards.

CharlieSheen out here trying to pretend Andy has these undefendable plays saved in his back pocket unlike other coaches for crying out loud.

Also...there are plenty of busts drafted by Andy Reid and Solomon Thomas isn't anywhere close to top 5 busts in NFL history. Talk about hyperbole.

Yeah nowhere did I criticize Reid. In fact, I said he was a great HC the 20 yrs prior to landing Mahomes BUT everyone in here who's butthurt about Kyle would have hated him all the same prior to that 2019 season lol…like Andy didn't exist before then

My question, which none of them will answer is why is Andy's team playing like 💩 this yr…you know because it's all about the HC and he's this elite play caller.

Their team is no different than last yr, unlike what moon thinks they're actually one of the youngest teams in the league, they don't have a massive amount of injuries AND their generational QB has been on the field all damn year.

We're tossing out great RZ "play calls" with Andy….well they've been WORSE in the RZ the past 3 seasons compared to SF.

It's such a stale and boring thing to dwell over. s**ts done, move on. It's a football game that has dozens of things happen that can change the outcome of them.

The fact that winning ONE game completely changes the narrative for some folks regarding if someone is untouchable/great or bad is so dumb.

How is Thomas a top 5 bust in NFL History?

Solomon Thomas is not even close to being a top 5 bust in NFL history. Bad pick yes but dude is in his 9th year in the league. Busts are players who suck so bad they don't even sign a 2nd contract.

Nick Bosa isn't a bust by any means but fans are always complaining about certain players being injury prone. By the end of this season Bosa will have missed 27% of the 117 games possible. Nearly 2 complete seasons lost.

Joe burrow says hi too. Brock has missed his fair share of games as well. There's a laundry list of good players who have missed way more than you'd like.

It's football and when you have massive humans flying all over the place and hitting/falling on each other, it's next to impossible for them to not get hurt

... AND THAT'S THE WHOLE TRUTH !!!

And you know this......HOW?

it's a given.. Andy couldn't win with McNabb because he was an above average QB.. even with TO, it was just not enough... he knew his system was not going be enough so he went out of his way and GAMBLED on Mahomes... something that Shanny did not want to THOUGH he confirmed that he felt that Mahomes was a Freak of Nature BUT he rather have it his way w/Hoyer and Cj ..

if it's hard for you to know this.. then OUCHHHH !!!

he also had a chance with TB12 but went with Grappy, a QB he was never ALL IN..
