IMO the RAMS not falling on THEIR fumbles could have been the game changer. The main missed chance was on the eagles fumbled punt, the damn ball went right back to him ,that was deep in their territory. The other fumble did the same thing....bounced right back up to them.
As far as KW's fumble, it was bad, but without KW in that game we would have had a very low chance of winning. The guy balls out, he always falls forward, not a home run type runner, but he'll get you 1st downs and TD's. Anyone who wants to throw out 14+ TD's a year and who knows how many 1st downs, not to mention he's a for real 1000 yard back, not a guy who gets just over 1000, but a good bit over that threshold.
They lost this game because the clock ran out on them, I can't remember a QB throwing well over 300 yards in that kind of weather, may have been done, but I don't remember it. They had 450 yards of ball in weather like that....amazing. The D made the stops needed and really outside of 3 plays controlled that LOS. Those vaunted WR's of theirs did squat......
Like to see a CB in the draft, bring in some competition at the tackle spots, but also try hard to keep Aleric, Havs is the man, but he's running on time now, Warren is OK, but competition is needed. Kupp taking a price deal, and yes keeping Tutu is in my book too. IMO DeMarcus will look for a pay day, Tutu can be had much cheaper and he's a speed merchant who has shown his viability in the WR Room. Jordan is ready to step up.....You always draft a WR or 2 anyway....
Matthew wants back and he's still a live arm and leader....Let JG look around, but leave it open for him.....The thing is with all this young talent on the D and in several spots on O you can spend some money. Keep KW, don't extend him...let him play it out and go from there at RB.
Worst thing about this game is that it will be all about their RB and not the way it finished....14 yards away from taking out the #2
seed, while playing in a snow environment on a short week with God Knows what going on in the back of players minds....all this stuff about the eagles being at an advantage in that weather was/is BS.....they were slipping and sliding, they were putting on coats during Time Outs.....just like us.....they had no advantage with the weather IMO.
