3rd & goal at the 2, and something went wrong on the play. A bad snap, etc.

Birds go for it on 4th down ...

incomplete

Siriani was trying to get a TO just before the play

No sure I agree with forgoing the points

s1uggo72 · 2026-10-04T14:43:21-0500

SMH. What’s wrong w taking 3 points

WestSideLion · 2026-10-04T14:44:00-0500

I just don’t understand that in a low scoring, rainy game. Take the FG and make Stafford score 2 TDs to win.

Bkmtnittany1 · 2026-10-04T14:44:44-0500

Absolutely stupid!

Because people are watching?

damn, PF against the Birds (Michael Carter, that was iffy, IMHO

WestSideLion · 2026-10-04T14:51:16-0500

Just a terrible way to lose this game after all of this.

But the government spending tax dollars? I get the PACs doing it.

Tom McAndrew · 2026-10-04T14:53:16-0500

Williams walks in for the TD for the Rams (from inside the 1)

With the PAT, it's 20-17, Birds, with 3:59 left in the game

Rams drove 98 yards on that possession

Tom McAndrew · 2026-10-04T14:54:57-0500

Rams KO goes OOB, so the Birds take over on the 40.

I'll take that. LOL

Tom McAndrew · 2026-10-04T14:56:32-0500

Crap, Birds run on 1st down, and Bigsby stays down.

Birds need multiple 1st downs on this drive

Tom McAndrew · 2026-10-04T15:00:20-0500

3rd & 4. Birds are 0 for 10 on the day ...

empty backfield

incomplete to Ertz, but the LBer was all over him.

Birds are going for it???

Well, they lined up, but tried to get the Rams to jump, which didn't happen, so they ended up taking a delay of game penalty

Tom McAndrew · 2026-10-04T15:01:08-0500

Rams take over at their 20 with 2:55 left in the game.

Birds up 20-17

WestSideLion · 2026-10-04T15:03:32-0500

#11 is awful in coverage.

WestSideLion · 2026-10-04T15:05:56-0500

Just an awful game to lose. They had 1st and goal to go up 17 with 6 mins left.

Nick certainly isn’t shifting the narrative that he’s a rah-rah average coach.

Lose??? Smh

Tom McAndrew · 2026-10-04T15:07:53-0500

Birds deflect the pass, and nearly get an INT. Jones should have made the INT on the deflection

Tom McAndrew · 2026-10-04T15:09:43-0500

Rams pick up a 1st & goal, with 1:22 left.

Birds take a TO. They only have 1 left

Nitt1300 · 2026-10-04T15:11:41-0500

wow- suckage extraordinaire

Tom McAndrew · 2026-10-04T15:12:03-0500

Birds take their last TO

2nd & goal from the 7

Williams runs it in for the Rams. Trotter nearly had him in the backfield, but got stiff-armed.

With the PAT, it's 24-20, Rams, with 1:10 left

10 play, 79-yard drive by the Rams

Tom McAndrew · 2026-10-04T15:12:57-0500

WestSideLion · 2026-10-04T15:13:19-0500

Just a brutal loss. This is not a playoff team.

nittanyfan333 · 2026-10-04T15:13:25-0500

Hey PSU fans, THIS is what terrible game management is.

Awful…..

Tom McAndrew · 2026-10-04T15:14:09-0500

Birds start on their own 27 with 1:05 left, and no TOs

Pocono Lion · 2026-10-04T15:14:34-0500

I had a sinking feeling they were losing this game when they didn’t convert on the 3rd and 4.

Nitt1300 · 2026-10-04T15:15:01-0500

wheels are off

nittanyfan333 · 2026-10-04T15:16:13-0500

I had to leave to take the kids to the fall festival with the Wife. I’m not watching. Who gave up the sacks on that series? Both sacks to Byron Young. Please tell me it was 51…

Tom McAndrew · 2026-10-04T15:16:44-0500

1st down: Hurts gets sacked
2nd down: incomplete to Cooper
3rd down: Hurts has the ball stripped, but the Birds recover. 4th & 25
4th down: a deep pass to Cooper, but it is picked off with 4 sec left in the game

smh

I didn't expect to win this game, but the Birds ended up giving it away at the end

WestSideLion · 2026-10-04T15:17:27-0500

Is the Hurts experiment over in Philly? He’s nowhere near a $50 million QB. They will have to blow up this roster after this season.

nittanyfan333 · 2026-10-04T15:18:10-0500

Maybe a little bit of credit for playing valiantly after all the sustained injuries they had. Still, siriani takes the field goal. We’re only down one.

8-9 or 9-8 type of season coming. The next several games are brutal with all the injuries. The season could get away from them here.

Take the FG. Not getting it gave the Rams life. Poor decision by HC.

Let’s not forget the Eagles D gave up back to back TD drives of 97 and 80 yards. When things mattered most, they were dominated.

I’d have taken the FG too, but it ultimately didn’t matter. The Rams easily scored the 2 TDs they needed to win and the offense continued to be league-worst.

BobPSU92 · 2026-10-04T15:38:01-0500

I was following the game online and thought the Iggles had it won at 20-10. Then I saw the final score. Holy hell.

My point West Side is by the Rams stopping them on 4th down it gave them life and with plenty of time. Changed the ebb and flow.

Then they just would have lost 24-23 instead of 24-20. 0-12 on 3rd down=a gassed defense. Needed the TD to be up 3 scores. A functional offense at the goal line would help.
