What a rollercoaster. I’m pretty crushed right now. This is a banged up team, a physical game against the Saints is the last thing we needed. Do we rush back Jalen? Are we essentially deciding between Minshew and a 1 seed vs Hurts and a 5 seed when making that QB choice?

 

The silver lining is that if Giants beat Colts they’ll be locked in at 6 seed (unless WFT beats Cowboys, in which this is all moot), and have nothing to play for in week 18 in case we’re still chasing a 1 seed. We will annihilate backup Giants (and if we don’t, the season is already over lol).

Still had a chance to win on the road with our back-up QB and giving up 4 turnovers and losing multiple players to injury during the game (not that Dallas didn't have guys missing).

Hopefully losing here will get them more locked in to beat the Saints cause they still have a very talented defense.

Assuming Minshew can not turn the ball over we should beat the Saints and it’s all good. Only reason we lose this game is due to the turnovers. Shame but you can’t play sloppy football and win games. 

Not a safe assumption, and Saints gameplan will overload box and force Minshew to throw. If our D of this week shows up vs Saints, we’ll need to score more on Saints w/ Minshew than anyone has in a month.

If our offense doesn’t turn the ball over 4 times we are fine. The Saints offense is terrible. We aren’t losing to them if we protect the football. If we don’t? Sure anything can happen.

THANK GOD Sirianni has that timeout in his back pocket for next game… I mean what the hell is his deal with not calling timeouts on those types of drives???? It’s insanity

Also, getting an every down back is huge for us this off season. Miles just isn’t that. Ball security and doesn’t get every yard he should get. Really need a back BAD…

Defensive 3rd & 30 was Gannons worst call of the year. Why the EFF was Scott so late to that play? If he was supposed to be there, why is he that close to the LOS?
