I think it's complete lunacy to say "Andy Reid didn't have his players prepared" - he absolutely did. Those guys hit the field ready to play thoroughly outclassed the Patriots.
But a long-snapper didn't snap the ball to the right guy. Has any coach in the history of the game EVER not been responsible for every loss then? Because seriously, there's nothing Andy can do other than tell his snapper "Hey, listen to the playcall, bud..."
You're gonna put a snapper ****ing up a fake on Andy as demonstrative of the team being 'unprepared' on a day the team writ large outplayed the Patriots by a significant margin?
That's absurd.

You’re proving my point.
The margin for error against that team, especially in NE, is very small. One **** up could bury you.
That **** up put them back in the game. Despite us dominating them, that one error cascaded into a snowball effect that ultimately put them 5 yards from evening the score at 23 at the end.
There were some miscommunications. Andy has to have the game plan outlined for his team so that shit doesn’t happen and everyone is on the same page.
Something like that could be devastating next month. Fortunately we won.
