Would've been safer if Bert hadn't been double-covered, and if the ball wasn't overthrown?

That pass was still close though... a half a step and I believe it would have been a completion... How far would that FG attempt have been? Did they say 53? If so why even go for it on 4th down, the kicker has been clutch in GW kicks lately , why go for it on 4th and 9? I mean 4th and 3 or 4 sure but 4th and 9 is not likely to succeed when they know you aren't going to run it.

I have visions of Patrick Mahomes II skipping after every touchdown he throws.

Where was the ball on 4th and 9? Regardless, stepping into a sack on 3rd and 9........ROFL

He's a great person, I admire his toughness, but it's time to move on.

The Andy+Alex combo is never going to accomplish a thing in the post season...

Mahomes will be ok at QB but it is going to take a while, One decent game does not make a QB in the NFL... He is not a master at reading defenses and thats what separates the new nfl qb's from the vets.. There will be pain for a while, maybe a year or more.

Don't think that was a sack , pretty sure he made it back to the LOS, when 4th and 9 came up I was sure they were just lining up to get the Tits to jump to help the kicker and was shocked when they snapped the ball

Well Alex isn’t a master at reading defenses either so the trade off will be minimal at the beginning.

4th and 9 from the 44.

7 to 8 yards back for the holder.

Makes it a 61 to 62 yard FG.

I gotcha ... I thought it was closer than that so I understand the 4th and 9 pass ... HEY Look on the bright side, Jano will be cut this year

I know this I expect growing pains that is part of the job but that goes with life in every field of expertise.


He needs experience but every snap he takes will bring us closer to championship level of play.

He's much further along than people think.
His mechanics still suck ass but that's his instincts. He'll always believe that cannon can save him.

And once Car learns the WCO I think the Gruden hire will be the best thing to happen to that offense.

Cooper was born to play the WCO and Crabtree already knows it.

It will help with TOP which is a terrible secondary's best friend...

Alex still struggles with basic cover 2.

I will be surprised if Crab is a Raider next year
