00:00let's go back to that mess there in Washington boy that thing was just how do you not know where
00:06you are on the field if you're the quarterback and Mike Mart said it why are you running another
00:12play kick the field goal and go home instead really this is the kind of decision that may
00:18end up costing Dan Quinn his gig what were your takeaways in this yeah I'm right there with you
00:24I think this falls back on coaching and believe me Jaden Daniels is partly to blame for that just
00:29not knowing and not having the instincts to say hey I've got to make sure that the clock stops here
00:34make sure we have enough time but Dan Quinn we're looking at this play unfolding there's about 55
00:40seconds left in the game Jaden Daniels is just kind of standing there in the huddle waiting for the play
00:45call and they just let it run all the way down they were on the one play there has to
00:49be a discussion
00:50at that point of hey we don't have any timeouts guys let's just get this spike let's do the field
00:55goal you know you feel free to run down the clock you can run it down to the 12 seconds
00:59and then do
01:00the spike that also protects you from a situation where if you have a bad snap you can throw it
01:05away
01:05on the field goal because I don't think it was fourth down when they would have kicked it so they
01:09really
01:10just needed to spike that much earlier it was just such a bad sequence it's really I think it's a
01:14problem for Dan Quinn his seat was already hot it's now scorching hot and you know Jaden Daniels will be
01:20able to bounce back from this but both guys just after the game seemed completely like dismayed at how badly
01:26they screwed up that situation you know as they should as they should be Jacob also you would also add
01:32in
01:32that you have a first year first time play caller and David Blau in that scenario too so as you
01:39said with
01:40coaching communication has got to be an issue there right when you're telling your player here's where we are
01:45here's how much time you have left you have no time out spike the football the worst thing you could
01:51do is take a sack or run the football with no time it's just to me really that came down
01:56to like you
01:57said situational play calling on the coaching staff here speaking of that let's go to London and what
02:03happened with the Eagles there boy I'll tell you all you have to do is kick the ball through the
02:09back of
02:10the end zone you have eight seconds left you have to know that on the other side you have a
02:17backup
02:17snapper and on top of that you've got a kicker who kicked a year ago a 68 yard field goal
02:25in Cam
02:26Little how do you not defend first the kickoff and how do you not if you're Michael Clay the special
02:33teams coach there with Philadelphia not tell your guys you got to cover this you can't give them field
02:39position does this come down to coaching too I would say so because you have two options there
02:45you can either kick it out of the back of the end zone which I know earlier in the season
02:48we talked
02:49about the Cowboys Ravens game where that wasn't the right call but the Ravens had a timeout in that
02:53scenario because the Jaguars didn't have a timeout their only way they could have gotten into field goal
02:59range would have been completing a ball near the sideline getting out of bounds at which point you just
03:03play sideline defense just forced them to try to throw over the middle of the field so from that
03:08perspective they should have kicked it out of bounds I can understand saying hey if we have the
03:12return we can make them run out the clock okay if you want to do that you have to make
03:17sure your
03:18defense or your special teams unit is ready to tackle and they just were not up to the task and
03:24it was the
03:24second time in that game they allowed a big return happened on the opening kickoff it was a lot it
03:29was
03:29disallowed by penalty but Josh Cameron ran back a touchdown on the opening kickoff so you know if I was
03:35looking at that as a coach I would have said I should probably just kick it out of bounds just
03:38in case something like that happens again but you know credit to Nick Sirianni he took responsibility
03:43for it after the game but that's when the Eagles are going to look at and say wow we had
03:48that in
03:48the bag and we completely blew it
03:50you
