And in this game the two guys who killed us were Cooley and Smoot.
1. Smoot had a silly penalty on the first drive for illegal contact on a 3rd and long that kept the drive alive for Philly. Philly ended up scoring 7 points on the drive when they should have punted. Now we see why Minn let him go.
2. As much as I love Cooley you can't get a false start AT HOME on the 1 yard line. That is the kind of mental error that Shockey would make. He should give back some of his signing bonus after that critical mistake cause the WR broke wide open on the play and it would have been 7.

I actually didn't have a big problem with the draw call. Philly was coming with an all out blitz and CP nearly scored. Another yard and it would have been a brilliant call.
