Kirk Cousins tore his Achilles in the Vikings game vs the Packers.

I thought advantage in the trenches for us I would have rather seen a 3rd and 3 run - worst case you make them drive 90 yards
I get it. At worst, you punt and put them 20 yards farther from the goal line.

That play was the last play before the 2:00 warning, so no.

A terrible coaching decisions lost this game. All they had to do was the run and trust the defense. It makes you ducking sick man.
Defense couldn't hold them on the last drive, gave up a TD in ...45 seconds? I'm shocked it took that long. We had been spinning down a safety over their #2 for a few drives and got away with it. Probably because, to the shock of a lot of Buckeyes here (including myself) Smith Njiba hasn't been a real cog in the SEA offense like Olave, Wilson, Michael Thomas, Curtis Samuel, Scary Terry and the other OSU receivers are. So when Schwartz gave them the opening, Hawks finally took it.
Worth pointing out, defense dug a two score hole early and the offense, Yes that includes Stef - dug us out when things were heading towards a blowout on the road. This gave time for the defense to catch their wind and the defensive staff to make their adjustments per drive. I just presume that also counts for nothing though?
Look, I'm cool talking football with this board when I have the time. But that time is less and less these days, and my patience, looking for objectivity and football I.Q. , is even more finite. You can't give credit to the coaching staff for 99% of the game, putting us in a position to possibly win, then hang them for the other 1% when they don't. Especially when the defining play literally comes down to what we all know football as - a game of inches. Half the length of that ball to the right of the Dlines hand and it's likely a completion for a 1st down which ices the game.
But as I'll go back to it, in the mind of the fans, the mythical "other play that ALWAYS WORKS AND WE'LL WIN RUNNING IT" is the correct one.
edit: To be clear. Is that pass the call I would have made if I have the chart sheet? No. That having been said. That doesn't mean I don't understand the one that did happen either.

Dude, stop with the fucking holier than thou bullshit. I played high level high school football and was recruited to play at the collegiate level. I understand the game perfectly fine. Surely someone with your immense knowledge understands the very basic principle of pinning a team deep when your defense have dominated the entire half versus giving them a huge momentum turnover and a much shorter field. Or do you wanna show a bunch of pictures of what he should have done despite being an XFL QB who didn’t cut making the Bears roster this year.
I’m a dad and do a damn good job 99% of the time. But if I leave the cabinet full of chemicals open to take a dump and my kid chugs Clorox, I’m still a bad father. At the end of the day I set up someone who I knew could make a terrible decision despite them knowing better or making the smart decision.
That was a stupid fucking decision by Stefanski. come on man. He’s a very good coach who made a very bad decision.

We're playing with a guy who was 3rd string QB because the brain trust screwed up thinking a 5th round rookie could actually be the backup. Lucky to have taken 2 of 3 we should have lost. Seattle is a tough place to beat the home team. We gave a fine effort.

Thank you... Never listen to a dude whose screen name is taken from a Sumerian Demonic female dragon deity known as "Tiamat" who thinks his own shit don't stink..
Nickers...."There are no old running QB's in the NFL "~Sam Rutigliano~ -
That was disappointing. Terrible call terrible throw terrible timing. Just proving this team could be something special with only competent QB play.
Early man walked away as modern man took control. Their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal. So He built his great empires and he slaughtered his own kind, and he died a confused man and killed himself in his own mind... -

I'm not as upset as I could be. They looked like it would be a blowout and so I took a nap and when I woke up they were right back in it and the defense was dominating. I never had them winning this game but towards the end I had hoped they could pull it out. Pj walker, though, is not the answer to anything except "name a terrible quarterback"

Bad call by SHITSpanski. Didn’t like most of the 3rd and short pass calls.
If the rookie Mitchell catches a ball that hits both hands uncontested he has a pick 6 and we win too. He shit the bed.

Pretty much where I am. I had to work today and when I had a break I checked my computer (I watch with the sketchy free legal streams) it was 0-14 Seachickens, so I was like, "well that's over" and when I finally got home and all cleaned up I logged on just in time to watch their game winning drive, so I didn't have to live and die with the live gameday flow that everyone else was obviously exposed to..... and by the anger on this thread, it looks like I missed a doozy.

Fuuuuuuuck that sucks. Always liked that dude.
-
I really didn’t expect them to win this game.
It’s so much worse to lose when it was our game until the end, though.
PJ Walker should not start another game for the browns, strong and hunt are far better runners than ford. That’s my take
-
Also I normally wouldn’t hate passing on that short 3rd. But when Walker is pure ass and strong and hunt were tearing it up all day it’s pretty hard not to wonder wtf stefanski was thinking there.

Honestly, it was very good. Lots of fun plays, but after we got quickly down, we kind of dominated, and THAT'S why people are displeased. PJ Walker missed some really easy TDs that resulted in extremely short FG's, and after our second failure to get 7, it felt like the smallest 3 point lead in history, which is why I said, "Feels like one of those games we'll need to comeback on."
On one hand, I loved that our guys came back. It would have been easy to fold, but we didn't. On the other hand, I can't watch PJ Walker again, I just can't. To be fair, he hung in there for a backup and got us the lead, but he's pretty atrocious and absolutely has ZERO big play ability. We got bailed out by the refs multiple times, and we still couldn't win.
Walker's inability to score in the red zone and throw the simplest of passes just hamstrings us to the point of failure. I'm not exaggerating, either. There was a Moore crossing route that was so open, the announcer had to show us the replay, just to make sure we all saw it. The drive before that, Walker threw a 30 yard fade pass to Harrison Bryant who was solidly covered, yet he had Njoku directly in front of him for a 5-10 yard gain, if not a TD. Cuz you know, when I think of explosive plays that are difficult to cover, I think about a streaking Harrison Bryant in the end zone off of play-action.
Probably the single biggest killer, and the play that the young man won't likely ever forget as long as he lives, our rookie backup CB dropped a pick 6 that would have about functionally ended the game.

Read that, it'll tell you what you need to know. Most of us were yelling, "RUN THE BALL!"
Spoiler alert, we did not run the ball.
