It was 2nd and 10 and if he caught it, it would’ve been 3rd and 4/5, as LB was in perfect position to make tackle. Ridiculous speculation to say that cost Philly the game.

The loss isn't on him, however it was a huge play.

Well it removed all doubt when the pick happened. Kind of pivotal, so yeah, it's a decent assumption.

Just like Parkey cost the bears game.. it’s always the last play that “cost the game”. That’s how it is in sports

He didn’t drop a TD pass. Read my post again.

You didn’t use the right. Kamara tipping off that last run is what literally ended the game. Although a small chance, they still had a shot if they stop him short and we have to punt. Sproles is a dangerous runner, Foles can chuck it 70+ yards, and there is always the fluky shite that could happen

I'm watching NBC Sports Philadelphia's postgame and they've been fairly sympathetic to Jeffery. I figured they'd be going mental about that play.

A lot of their ire has been directed at the offensive playcalling after the 1st quarter. They even took swipes at Foles for looking rattled and at Jim Schwartz for not blitzing more.

Eagles receivers made some really great catches to extend drives in the game and if I recall, he had at least one of them. Unfortunate for them but it's just the other side of that coin

He sat down between coverage to get the 5-6 yards. Foles lead him inside. That forced him to turn back to his left and reach out. Still in his hands, and not so much "shitty" as just "miscommunication".
