When a team loses a close game, finger pointing takes place. Each play is dissected with the final result, in hindsight, seemingly hinging on the outcome.
The Eagles’ Divisional Round loss in New Orleans is no different.
The the turning points are easy to pick. The fake punt attempt, Nick Foles’ interception, etc. are all plays the Eagles and fans will look at as turning points — plays that you can’t help but wonder what would've happened had they were stopped or made.
As various players discussed after the game, their season didn’t end because of an Alshon Jeffery catch — there were other plays left on the field.
