this is true. the silver lining here is that next year, with the way we have been successfully drafting the past few, we will have upgraded offensive protection to truly see if Teddy can win games with his passing ability. If he does, I don't care what running back is in the backfield as long as they can block and catch screens and release valves and gain 5 yards.
This team needs to be able to be more dynamic, and that includes driving down the field with the Quarterback's arm and legs just as much as it means pounding the ball with the run.

How many did Walsh throw? 1. I guess he just barely above Teddy them. Im going to enjoy having you on Foe. Your one friggin comment.
Foe my but he is nothing but a Troll trouble maker.

Not to mention that Teddy made a bunch of good throws today that put us in a position to win this game. 17/24 for 146 yds. if you're into numbers. Wilson was 13/26 for 142 yds, 1 TD
The turnovers hurt us, Sendejo's dropped INT hurt us, the crazy bad luck on the fumbled snap hurt us, but Teddy was solid today.
Teddy was awesome.
I can only imagine how good this team could be if they could open some running lanes and protect the passer for a few moments. Add in a big WR to compliment Diggs and Wright. Skies the limit. Also, Waynes played well when he was in the game. Great to see him rise to a BIG occasion.

to compare that miss to 98 is moronic. walsh has missed plenty of easy field goals and even extra points all year. i'm i the only one not surprised by this? right before the kick i texted my friend who said "the have it won." that walsh "misses extra points."

Thats is a very good point, I think you may be on the money.

A pro kicker should be able to make a chip shot from either hash. If it's true Walsh can't hit a chip from the left hash Spielman needs to find a new kicker.
Sad part of this is, Walsh actually was awesome prior to that. Hit 2 long ones outside and killed every kickoff. He deserved a better finish.
