4th and 3 - Bowles kicks the FG and never see's the ball again

Conservative coaches always lose.

At Washington 17 yard line.

they needed a TD on that last drive and were in perfect position for it too

Hit the upright unbelievable 

If it was Det HC, he would go for it. The pussie don't win here...

Bowles is a sack of shit with no heart.

He elected to tie the game instead of going for the win on 4th and 3.  Never saw the ball again.  Enjoy the loss Coward.

The 2nd and 1 call was atrocious. Give the fucking ball to your running back. Instead you try a cute qb run that does nowhere. 

Bowles was terrible in the 4th.  Quinn played to win the game, Bowles played not to lose.

There red zone offense was flat out awful. Lousy play calls and on top of that mayfield averages 33 pass attempts a game, today he threw 18. Seriously?  People for some reason think coaches are smart because they are an nfl coach, when tons of them arent.  They might be good coaches on paper, but then suck big time during the game

And if he goes for it and fails you blame him for not taking the 3 

I thought both teams ran the ball to much. They played the opposite of how they played all year. 

It was moreso the 2nd and 1 and they didn't get a first down that screwed em. Bad play call there 

Washington doesn't have a run game outside of Daniels. Tampa also has a stout Run D.

Philadelphia has a clear path to the SB now. T.B was their only kryptonite over the past 3-4 years.

@NoFlyZone

 Yeah I was thinking the same thing here as well..

@smac38

 I agree what the hell was that call especially after it was Baker who just fumbled right before that made no sense 

With that piece of shit defense of his, and way Washington was moving the ball, here is what I would have done. 

Kick the FG. Tie the game. Then do an onside kick to either get the ball back or give Washington a short field so they can’t waste the entire clock. If your defense can hold them to a FG, great. You still have time to get the ball back. If they score a TD, you still have a chance to tie. 

These coaches are not thinking outside the box or preparing for different situations the way they should. It’s incredible how vanilla everyone is. 

This is all why I am an admirer of Dan Campbell and the Lions' approach. Play the eff to win or why even suit up??? 

Tomlin Saturday wakes up after being down 21-0 and then when all is lost, Wilson is allowed to throw the ball downfield. I call Bravo Sierra!!!
