Last week Murray put the game on his shoulders and won it. This week Murray let the run game take the load. Even though his stat line is trash, I thought he managed the game well and didn't make any big mistakes.

I'm super critical of murray- but I give him a passing grade, solid B effort

So what mistakes did he make?

It’s very obvious that Coach JG is all about winning any way we can. This game was about running down their throat.

Also kudos to Drew Petzing for calling a good game today.

Missed a wide open - no defense in the same zipcode - McBride for a TD.

Another bad throw that hit the back of Stephenson (thankfully he didn't turn around) intended for wilson.

Another late throw that should have hit MHJ but almost got picked off

I mean hey- you asked. Still give him a solid B today, he managed a good game

`This isn't the thread for it, but if we're a draft and develop team 2 catches between Wilson/MHJ isn't that. Glad for the win, but in 2024 running down teams throat doesn't mean there's a good chance your #2 WR gets a goose egg.

Good answer

I don’t blame him for the McBride throw because he was running for his life and had decided to toss it away when he saw McBride. It was too late.

The Nextro was not good you’re correct

We threw the ball 20 times today.
Don’t know what you’re getting at when we ran for over 200 yards.

Some throws were missed and some dropped but running was the game plan today.

Clutch has never been associated with losing no matter the context.

No one said K1 was clutch last year when he drove the team down to be in position to win and Prater doinked a FG for the win.

You guys aren’t being serious again.
To dumb it down for you, Allen was clutch in the playoff loss to KC once, because he won the game, then his team's special teams and defense promptly lost it in a handful of seconds. Didn't make Allen less clutch. Basic enough for you to understand?

What am I doing? I'm feeding the...unserious poster again. Sorry, that's my bad, leading you on. Please return to your regularly scheduled haterade posting.

Perfectly fine with KM's game today. He didn't need to be anything special for the team to win.

The Never Murray’s never rest obviously.

Losing is never clutch.
