Chad Henne for the dozens of bad throws even on the 2 TD passes to Hurns. They were passes he had to turn around and adjust to.
Chad also still had passes batted at the LOS when facing a blitz on multiple occasions.
Henne by far. And I'm not a blame the QB all the time kind of guy but he missed enough passes to steal a loss.
Bradley for naming Henne starter.
McLendon. Lots of miscues, bad snaps, whiffed blocks. That's not to excuse Henne throwing it behind open receivers, nor is it to forgive Gerhart's complete ineffectiveness every time he touched the ball, but it is to point out that had Henne not been watching snaps go everywhere except where they were supposed to, he might have had a slightly easier time dealing with the Philly defense.
This loss falls on the head coach.
He didnt adjust and Chip Kelly did.
The word donkey makes me think of Toby Gerhart's nickname, Gerhorse. Someone who is blamed for a loss is called a goat, not a donkey.
You can't blame this loss on just one player. Part of it was the first missed field goal (second one was blocked). Losing Jonathan Cyprien also was a factor. Marqise Lee's drop at the Eagles sideline was huge because it was a long pass and perfectly thrown. Zane Beadles was blamed for a sack. It is much easier to say a certain situation is a problem than somebody on the roster.
Henne easily. He isn't good and is the biggest reason why our offense got shutout in the second half.
Collective loss all around.
What happened to D-Rob? He was gashing the line the few times he got the ball right after the Gerhart scare. Then he was replaced in favor of Todman who was ineffective.
Sorry, while I agree that Henne had mistakes out there. I'm putting the failure of the offense on Fische for his bad playcalling primarily. Secondly, Marcedes dropped a key ball on 4th down that would have kept the Jags in the game during the 4th Quarter.
The O-Line had a few good moments, but for the most part were a hot mess. The had no idea what was going on, and whenever Henne tried to adjust, they were pretty much lost which resulted in Henne having to call a couple time outs (if not more).
The D was monster. But the depth is lacking and as the game went on, they got worn out.
But again, I really think if the Offense wasn't so tight after we gained the 17 point lead, we'd have won this game. I put this mostly on the OC.
I've had a concern about Fische since last year. I'm still worried he's not the right guy...

How about the 4 dropped passes that led to three and outs and no running game? Lets be fair here and spread the hate around. You can throw in some questionable coaching decisions too.

There's no room in this thread for this.

No running game because the Eagles stacked the line daring our QB to beat them. I'm not saying everyone else is perfect, but if I had to point the finger it would easily be Henne. Outside of a few passes, he crapped the bed.
It's a tale of 2 halves. Everyone was just fine with the first half, and everything was good. The second half, well, that was the opposite all around. There is no single factor.
Is 34 points the most unanswered points a Jaguars team has ever given up in a half? If so, then congratulations to Bradley for setting that team record.
Coaching staff gets my vote.
Henne? Coaching staff had the best read on him and chose to put him in there and stay with him.
O Line? Constructed and rolled out by the coaching staff.
Defensive secondary? Same.
Allowing your team to come out flat after a 17-0 halftime lead? Sorry guys, it's coaching.
Where was Bradley's "DO YOUR JOB!" speech that he was so famous for?

Hopefully this is sarcasm. Do the players have any accountability by this logic?

Does the coaching staff have any accountability in your book? They get paid to do a job, right?
Preparation, game planning, talent evaluation...these are responsibilities of the coaching staff. You can't blame players for everything.
