Interception to end it?

[bevellisthedevil]

I also like how Geno's interceptions are everyone's fault but his. Maybe if he wanted Metcalf to cut a hard out, he should have told him in the huddle.

He closes his eyes and throws it. Then gets mad when everyone else screws up

You laugh but watch it again.

It’s likely you will change your mind and put blame on DK.

I LOVE DK, but this one is on him IMHO

That’s exactly what happened but the Geno haters will sell you something else.

He repeatedly throws the ball without seeing. Maybe it’s play calling but there is no refusal to make a mistake, he just throws whether the play is there or not. Same thing as the goal line near pick. No will to keep it alive at all costs…

cut everybody

Jesus Christ. Folds like a card table under pressure.

The real Geno failure was taking the sack and leaving Myers a 60 yard FG instead of a 50 yarder.
The pick was on DK.

I’m thinking maybe DK ran a bad route

He did, the commentators showed it precisely. Geno was supposed to cut out to the sideline, instead he ran upfield to the DB. Caused the pick.

Yea I watched it a couple more times


I’m convinced it was on DK more than Geno

Actually was almost a perfect throw had DK been where he was supposed to be.

I’m not saying DK did his job. I’m saying the play called for geno to throw to a spot. So he threw to a spot. But he has eyes, he can see it’s not there but the throw still comes out anyway. There’s no taking control of the situation, geno relies on chance

 

[bevellisthedevil]

Do the announcers have the playbook? I don't think anyone knows for sure what route DK was supposed to run. I do know that Geno throws a lot of picks.

The break to the outside happens as Geno is throwing the ball. Timing route. Lack of chemistry or trust between DK and Geno. DK didn't think Geno would deliver the ball on time?

Yeah he had multiple “timing routes” today….

So the play calling is atrocious because Geno has few opportunities to prevent throwing interceptions when people don’t get to there route. It’s a throw without looking offense.

Fair criticism of Grubb. For me, it just makes me appreciate Tom Brady, that he seemed to NOT have this kind of schitt happen to him in crunch time. Just a higher degree of precision and communication. And Brady ripping receivers a new one when they do things wrong. And reliable precise receivers like Edelman, Amendola, etc.

I kinda want to get a look at that play before the missed FG. Was he trying to make anything happen? Maybe he was under more pressure than I'm remembering, but that check down had no chance of getting more than one or two yards.

Geno has eyes?

Absolutely but on that type of play the ball is out of the QBs hand before the receiver get to the “spot” he’s supposed be.

I’m not defending Geno across all arguments, I’m defending him on that particular play.

Worse than usual

 

[James in PA]

Don't worry, Geno will tell us again in his presser: "I gotta do better. I will do better."

 

[Appyhawk]

Geno ain’t it

I edited your comment. Although I readily encourage humor this one was over the line and received objection.
