View Poll Results: I would feel comfortable if it was the 4th quarter and Bob was protecting a lead of .
1 point – It’s just a fluke that Bob Sutton’s defenses have collapsed in every single game of his career. 0 0%
7 points – I would trust Bob to protect a seven-point lead even if he’s never done it. 0 0%
14 points – No team can beat us with this type of lead, unless it’s an important game. 1 1.75%
21 points – These types of losses are very rare for teams other than Bob Sutton’s teams. 8 14.04%
28 points – We’ve only blown a 28 point lead once, so I think we’re usually safe even though it’ll be close. 8 14.04%
35 points – I’m reasonably confident that Bob could avoid an NFL record comeback 10 17.54%
50 points – It would have to be a lead so large that it’s beyond unprecedented. But in that case, I think he could do it. 9 15.79%
74 points – I think Bob could stop a team from setting the NFL scoring record in ten minutes. Maybe. 5 8.77%
100 points or more - I don’t care what the score is and how much time is left. Bob is going to lose the game unless it’s a ludicrous lead. 2 3.51%
No amount – If the lead was 1,000 points I’m still sure that Bob would give it up. 13 22.81%
I can't vote until I know the condition of Berry's heel. 0 0%
For tax reasons, my accountant advises me not to answer these questions 1 1.75%

Hypothetical: Is it possible for Bob Sutton's defense to NOT blow a lead?
Imagine that we're in the playoffs. There's 10 minutes left in the fourth quarter and we're in the lead. What is the SMALLEST lead we'd need to have before you felt comfortable that Bob Sutton's defense wouldn't blow it?

Poll coming slower and more painfully than a 13-minute game-winning drive against a Bob Sutton defense.

50 points. Even then our coaches would probably **** it up.

Nothing less than three possessions. I can’t believe I’m typing that.

Man that's ****ing SAD.

Frankly, I don't think ANY lead is safe with Sutton calling the Defense.

TBH no lead is safe with the Andy/Sutton combo.

I went 35 points only because there wasn't a 42 point option. Surely the O could generate a couple 1st downs. couldn't they?

Better question is when will Andy Reid stop managing the game as if he has a capable defense that can get a clutch stop?
