The turning point in the game last night imo

[Green Ranger]

Michael Lehan dropping that interception.....

Case Closed. that happened, i looked at my buddy and said, with my hands above my head "Thats the game, that was the change, the turnover, and the momentum we needed"....how did he miss that?!?!?! i was screaming for minutes, i was soooo pissed. then they score a TD 1 or 2 more plays later.

im sick of guys in the nfl today catching passes with their chests, and not their hands. ridiculous.

 

[elite14eva]

yeah he shoulda caught that.

 

[musphinzfan]

The unsportsman call and intentional grounding call were the turning point...Why do u think JH got benched in the 2nd half.

4th and 1 when our defense showed it couldnt stop the Jets offense and we settle for a Field goal instead of going for it and forcing them to match us with a TD instead of a FG

Too bad he got the grounding call, because of the worst play call in history....that play action was MONEY, great protection, and they bit hard....'cept one problem....only and yes ONLY chambers was running a route....a simple F'ing seam route....and he was covered....what is joey gunna do?!?!?! that was the dumbest play i have ever seen

Agreed,absolutely rediculous..Mike and Saban and the offense are not working together good at all.

There was a couple of passes that should have been intercepted but nobody knows how to catch on the defense.

There were two instances where we could have continued the drive. 3rd and one or two, second quarter and we're at the 50. We chose a pass play instead of running it. My thinking was that we chose a pass play because we were going to go for it on fourth down. Joey gets called for intentional grounding, we punt. I thought we should have just ran it there. Same situation again in the 3rd or fourth. 3rd and 2 maybe, Cleo drops back, incomplete. Two short yardage situations we could have picked up on a night where ronnie was running all over them.

This is the 3rd quarterback that we've had that can only generate ten pts a game. Cleo only had a half though...

This is another sign that Mularkey stinks. His play calling does not allow us to generate yardage. You would think because MM was a headcoach last year in this very same division, he would have a clue as to how to beat teams.

Its been a problem all year long.Our DBs cant catch the ball.They should be drilled with the wide receivers.

On second thought our WRs are not doing much better .

PS. I believe JT and Zach combined have nearly as many inteceptions as our DBs.Frustrating.

That dropped ball did let the air out of our balloon.

Obviously there were a few key plays, but in my mind the one play that costed us the game was the 4th & one call. After the season we've had, we needed to go for it on that down. Bad play calling/coaching, imho. :fire:

i agree, what do we have to lose?! also we call a time out, to just kick the field goal. someone in the crowd brought up a good point {now i dunno if it was or not on televison maybe you could see better} but to me, that spot looked kind of iffy on sammies run....if your gunna call a time out anyways, why not challenge the spot?!?! and then kick the field goal, anyone else know if that was a good spot or not?

I agree with the missed INT, I told my buddy that's gonna bite us in the butt. The 4th and , I thought they also shoulda went for since Ronnie was tearing them up (and c'mon we're 6-8)

My question is this tho, On the 4th and 1 when Nick asked for a measurement WHY wasn't it given??? I thought the refs had to give a measurement if the coach asked? Now we wasted a timeout that we needed at the end of the game.

I made a post about this happening during the last bills game. PlayAction send chambers deep and EVERYONE and I'm not kidding...everyone..stays in for pass protection. Chambers is doubled on the right and the whole left side of the field is completely empty...send RB or TE out there...and theyll at least be in single...We arn't going anywhere until Mularkey does.

Yes, Saban should had gone for it - IF HE HAD CONFIDENCE IN OUR OFFENSE TO CONVERT IT. Down 10-7 in the second to last game to the season vs. the hated Jets and with absolutely nothing to lose I say go for the TD since the D could not stop the Jets on 3rd down. But, it shows what little confidence there is in this OL and the offense as a whole to get the job done.

Yeah if he had caught that Miami would have been able to run time off the clock with Ronnie who had a great game last night.
