Watson - down by 21 in the first half had to put the game in his hands, could only manage 7 pt
Trubisky - down by 1 in the 4th quarter , drove the offense down for a makable 42 yd game winning field goal.
I was responding to someone who characterized Watson's performance as not just bad but "down right (sic) awful".
Trubisky was down by 1 in the 4th quarter because the Eagles had only 10 points in the first 59 minutes of the game. Gimme a break.
Not sure if you watched the Colts-Texans game. I did. The Colts took the kickoff, and methodically drove down the field for a TD. Lamar Miller got tackled short of a 1st down, Houston punted, and the Colts again methodically drove down the field for a TD. The teams traded INTs, and then early in the 2nd period the Colts again drove down the field for a TD. The Texans defense allows three long TD drives in less than a quarter and a half, and that's Watson's fault? He didn't play great, but he wasn't the reason his team lost, either.
