good call. Didn’t notice. fits the narrative of the game though. Missed throws/opportunities.

I think Steichen was as disappointed with Minshew this season as I’ve been. He was just so limited, and he played like 2021 Carson Wentz against the raiders with the playoffs on the line. Overthrowing or flat out missing open receivers. Not making “gimmes” as Ballard put it back then. 1-11 on third down is not a team problem. It’s a qb problem.

was sharing it at the exact same time.

imagine if that kick would have been a few more inches to the left.

live and die with #28 in this game. 188 yards on 30 carries and he watched an undrafted runningback drop the ball with the season on the line like the rest of us. Inexcusable. Shane and this team overachieved this season. Horrible way to go out. But I’m hopeful that a rookie coach that is as intense with the game as they all say is loses sleep until next September for the mistakes he’s made and he comes out in ‘24 even better for it.

1-11 on third down. that’s qb play, simply put. Appreciate what Gardner Minshew did for this team and he gave us a fighting chance. But he was not good enough throughout the season and certainly not tonight to lead us to the playoffs, let alone for any kind of playoff run. 227 yards running against a good run defense. 13/24 141 yards passing. With a true game managing qb, we are looking forward to next week. Stroud didn’t have much more than Collins tonight, but it was all he needed. Pretty good defensive effort, they definitely didn’t lose this game for us. Offense just didn’t win it. QB play has been a nightmare the last 3 seasons. Absolute nightmare.

emotions are high. Let’s all log off and live our lives for the next 48 hours. Frustrating way to go out, but I’m looking forward to the offseason. It’s all we’ve got at this point.

No where, because we dropped the ball…

You just said it. Bad execution by a practice squad running back when the best player on the roster (who had 188 yards rushing tonight) is watching from the sideline. You can try to justify that all you want, but it cannot be justified.

to draw the perfect play up for an undrafred runningback with your star drinking water on the sideline… duh

exactly. In no world is JT on the sideline there for Goodson… no world

What a way to miss the playoffs. With a throw behind a player and a drop.

hear hear

Huh? I know you aren’t talking about this forum…

Or I mean we can look at injuries decimating the secondary…

Come on Gardner Minshew. Go put this team in the postseason

Somebody go make a play to put this team in the playoffs.

SOMEBODY MAKE A PLAY.

To those calling out Steichen play calling… realize how limited he is with Gardner Minshew. It’s been how many games now and it’s still being discussed. He wasn’t conservative with #5…

there is 14 minutes left in the game and cj stroud on the other side… Be patient

He just made a 51 yarder. Hindsight is fun isn’t it?

If I had a nickel for every time he hit the upright….

167

break their will. We’re going to take a deep shot soon. But I’d keep pounding it for a bit
