If we go on to lose this game two particular culprits are James and Johnson. James dropped a perfectly executed screen pass and then fumbled at a critical time. Johnson's pass on the fake FG was atrocious and his botched hold on the failed PAT was ridiculous.

I think Whis is accountable for the failed fake. I mean, a punter is going to throw like...a punter. James is now a liability.

I have to agree with you. It was too far to go to have Johnson throw to someone as slow as Tuman.

That was quite the stop by Dansby there, cut under that lineman and lay the smackdown :)

Now just cause a turnover next time KD!

I have NO problems with the fake kick. We almost got the 1st. The problem wasn't on the punters throw...it was on the TE not picking up the first down.

Good, gutsy call. Just didn't pan out. I prefer a coach who takes chances, even if they fail.

At least the British are getting a good game this year. I felt bad that they ended up with that Giants-Fins snooze fest last season.

It isn't the gadget plays fault. It is the defense's fault for not tackling, and for not picking up a freaking extra point.

Really, even if we kicked the FG, we'd be down by one. We can't STOP them and get the ball back. Gadget plays are moot. We scored 23 points...if you can't win a game scoring 23 points, the first place to throw blame is NOT on the coach and "gadget plays." The defense stunk today.

I really don't have a problem with the call either. It looked good from the start.

Yup. We couldn't tackle today and that is really what came back to kill us.
