“…But it would help if Foles had more time to throw, and the condition of the Eagles’ offensive line – which for two weeks has been held together by masking tape, knitting thread, and Jason Peters – hasn’t allowed it.
“We got whupped up front,” Kelly said.
The line was so overmatched Sunday that, with two chances to win the game from the 49ers’ 11/2-yard line, Kelly didn’t bother handing the ball to McCoy. The 49ers had settled back into zone coverage on second and goal from the 6, and Kelly tricked them by running McCoy to the left for 5 yards. But he didn’t dare do it again on third down or fourth down, so certain was he that, in their goal-line alignment, the 49ers would stuff either McCoy or Darren Sproles….
….
….Kelly keeps chalking this all up to the instability of the offensive line, and perhaps McCoy’s play will improve next week against the St. Louis Rams, when tackle Lane Johnson returns from his suspension. Perhaps.”
