ORIGINAL: Trekgeekscott My .02 Darnold did NOT have a good day. He really needs to take advantage of the double and triple teams on JJ and find the open guy underneath or over the top. When he has these INTs it is almost always him trying to force the ball to JJ. During the week Doug Pederson joked that Darnold is doing well because of JJ...well that tells you the coach is planning to do everything to take JJ out of the game...that should open up opportunities for everyone. It was a coaching and Darnold issue... The silver lining on the dark Cloud is that the INTs didn't occur where the Jags would have a short field...they got 0 points off turnovers. The offense moved the ball well to get into the redzone but blew it from there. The Defense, with the exception of one drive, was amazing all day long. Kept the Jags from doing anything. Time of Possession. Holy crap we held the ball for nearly three quarters of the game.. the Jags D was clearly gassed at the end. John Parker Romo - Nice job young man. Mr McQuade, You filled in admirably. Now, Sammy needs to stop trying to feed JJ the ball when he's over covered. According to post game analysis, on the endzone INT, Aaron Jones was open on a crossing route underneath and it would have been a footrace to the endzone....which Aaron usually wins. Refereeing in the NFL has gotten really bad. I don't see how they even called that INT an INT clearly he didn't have control when it hit the ground, even the network ref was amazed they didn't overturn the call. It's shit like this that makes people think the league doesn't want certain teams to win. And all the gifts the Chiefs have been getting make support that as well. he must have gotten a game ball...his first NFL game...what a night for him.... just heard that ryan wright and long snapper mcquaide, both, received game balls along with romo....
