Catastrophic game management caused Philadelphia and Washington to squander victory, while the Giants likewise frittered away a golden opportunity.

災難性的賽局管理致使費城與華盛頓痛失勝果,巨人隊亦虛擲良機。

For the NFC East, this Sunday was undoubtedly a thorny path; for the division as a whole, Week 5 was likewise an arduous slog—Dallas fell at home on Thursday night to a team that had not yet tasted victory, whose roster even featured an undrafted rookie quarterback.

對國聯東區而言,這個週日無疑是荊棘載途;就整個分區來說,第5週亦是步履維艱——達拉斯於週四晚間在主場敗給一支此前未嘗勝績的球隊,陣中更有一位未經選秀的菜鳥四分衛。

The injury-ravaged Hawks, in London, let slip a victory that should have been theirs for the taking.

傷兵滿營的老鷹在倫敦將一場本應手到拿來的勝仗拱手相讓。

The Commanders, inexplicably, allowed time to drain away while within field-goal range, and in the end could only settle for a draw with the Giants, who themselves squandered two golden opportunities to snatch victory in overtime.

指揮官於射門範圍內令人費解地任憑時間流逝殆盡,終場僅能與巨人隊握手言和,而巨人隊在延長賽中亦兩度錯失致勝良機。

With four offensive linemen, Saquon Barkley along with fellow running back Tank Bigsby, and top wide receiver DeVonta Smith all absent, the Eagles still retained an opportunity to defeat Jacksonville after Jake Elliott kicked a 48-yard field goal with only 8 seconds left in the game.

在四名進攻鋒線球員、Saquon Barkley與同為跑衛的Tank Bigsby,以及頭號外接手DeVonta Smith悉數缺陣的情況下,老鷹於Jake Elliott在比賽僅剩8秒時踢進48碼射門後,依然保有擊敗傑克遜維爾的契機。

The Jaguars had no timeouts left, so Philadelphia should have taken the ball into the end zone for a touchback, forcing their opponents to start from the 35-yard line and requiring them to advance roughly 25 yards just to reach field-goal range.

美洲虎已無從叫停,費城因而本應將球送入達陣區、締造觸回,迫使對手自35碼線起步,尚須推進約莫25碼方得進入射門範圍。

However, Elliott surprisingly opted to keep the ball in play; Ameer Abdullah then found himself up against a defensive unit that had conceded a touchdown on the opening kickoff return, only for that play to be nullified by a penalty, and he ran it back 53 yards.

然而,Elliott竟選擇將球留置場內;Ameer Abdullah遂直面一支曾於開場開球回攻中失守達陣、惟該play因犯規而遭撤銷之防守單位,回跑53碼。

Abdullah was tackled at the Philadelphia 39-yard line with just one second remaining, thereby setting up Cam Little with the opportunity to kick a 57-yard field goal, which ultimately sealed a 19-17 victory.

Abdullah於比賽僅餘1秒之際在費城39碼線遭擒抱,遂為Cam Little締造踢進57碼射門之契機,終以19比17奏凱。

Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni was immediately consumed with profound regret over that decision.

老鷹總教練Nick Sirianni旋即對這項決定深感悔恨。

"I cost us that game," Sirianni said.

「是我害我們輸掉那場比賽的,」Sirianni說。

"That's exactly what I told our players.

「這正是我對我們球員所說的話。

The most agonizing part is that those guys fought so hard, and yet I failed to make the decision I should have made in the closing moments of the game, which cost us that game — and the blame for all of it rests squarely on me."

最令人痛心疾首的是,那些人拚得如此艱辛,而我卻在比賽最後關頭未能做出理應做出的決定,致使我們輸掉那場比賽,這一切完全歸咎於我。」

Special teams coordinator Michael Clay is likewise not without blame, in that he opted not to attempt an onside kick.

特勤組教練Michael Clay亦難辭其咎,蓋其未擇踢成觸回之舉。

The Week 3 clash between the Ravens and the Cowboys, staged in Brazil, likewise presented a comparable set of circumstances.

第三週於巴西上演的烏鴉對牛仔之役,亦呈現出相仿之情境。

At that juncture, after Brandon Aubrey had converted a 23-yard field goal to level the score at 31 apiece with a mere seven seconds remaining, Dallas elected to kick the ball out of the end zone.

其時,達拉斯在Brandon Aubrey踢進23碼射門、於僅餘7秒之際將比數扳成31平手之後,選擇將球踢出達陣區。

Unlike Jacksonville, Baltimore still had a timeout at their disposal, and consequently a touchback was by no means the correct decision.

迥異於傑克遜維爾,巴爾的摩尚握有1次暫停,是故觸回絕非正確之抉擇。

Lamar Jackson completed a 27-yard pass to Zay Flowers, the Ravens promptly called a timeout to stop the clock, and Tyler Loop then drilled a 56-yard field goal, sealing a 34–31 victory.

Lamar Jackson傳出27碼予Zay Flowers,烏鴉隨即喊出暫停以停錶,Tyler Loop繼而踢進56碼射門,終以34比31奏凱。

The Eagles should have had the opportunity to kick a game-winning field goal as time expired; however, the offense mismanaged the series of plays leading up to Elliott's attempt.

老鷹理應握有在時間屆滿之際踢進致勝球的契機,然而進攻組在Elliott嘗試之前的那一波進攻序列中,調度失當。

After Jalen Hurts found Dallas Goedert with a 17-yard pass, they secured a first down at the Jaguars' 34-yard line, thereby entering Elliott's range; simultaneously, Jacksonville used its second timeout, stopping the clock with only 25 seconds remaining.

在Jalen Hurts以一記17碼傳球找到Dallas Goedert之後,他們於美洲虎34碼線取得首攻,業已進入Elliott的射程範圍;與此同時,傑克遜維爾動用其第2次暫停,於僅剩25秒之際停錶。

However, on first down Hurts threw an incomplete pass, consuming a mere four seconds, and the clock had already stopped.

然而,Hurts於首攻之際傳球未竟,僅耗費4秒且計時業已停止。

Had they opted to run the ball, they could have forced the Jaguars to burn their final timeout.

倘若選擇跑球,本可迫使美洲虎動用其最後一次暫停。

Thereafter, on second down Hurts connected with Makai Lemon for a 7-yard gain, yet this rookie receiver, instead of going down, inexplicably stepped out of bounds, which brought the clock to an abrupt halt and likewise preserved Jacksonville's timeout.

其後,Hurts於二檔與Makai Lemon連線,推進7碼,然此菜鳥接球員竟出界而非倒地,致使計時戛然而止,亦為傑克遜維爾保全了暫停。

By third down, Dameon Pierce carried the ball for a loss of 3 yards, whereupon the Jaguars, with only 12 seconds remaining, exhausted their final timeout.

及至三檔,Dameon Pierce持球跑陣損失3碼,美洲虎遂於僅餘12秒之際,耗盡其最後一次暫停。

When questioned about the matter of play-calling, Hurts stated: "That is not within my purview.

當被詢及戰術呼叫一事時,Hurts表示:「此非吾之職責所在。

As a quarterback, the mindset I uphold is simply to set such matters aside.

身為四分衛,我所秉持的心態,便是將那些事置之度外。

I respect the play-calling, and I likewise respect the various arrangements that emerge over the course of a game.

我尊重戰術呼叫,亦尊重比賽中湧現的種種安排。

When I lie awake at night, I find myself pondering: 'Should I have interjected a word at that moment?'

當我夜不能寐時,我會思忖:『彼時我是否理應置一詞?』

Yet when all is said and done, what matters most is still execution in the moment."

然而歸根結柢,至關緊要者,仍是臨場執行。」

Hurts was unwilling to publicly question his coach, yet neither did he raise any objection to those play calls at that moment.

Hurts不願公開質疑教練,惟彼當下亦未對那些戰術呼叫提出異議。

The Hawks (2–3) have, for the first time since 2021, found themselves mired in a three-game losing streak.

老鷹(2勝3敗)自2021年以降,首度陷入3連敗之窘境。

Jaguars head coach Liam Coen himself also made several highly controversial decisions.

美洲虎總教練Liam Coen本人亦做出了若干頗具爭議的決策。

With only fifteen seconds remaining in the final minute of the first half and still holding one timeout, Jacksonville secured a first down at Philadelphia's one-yard line.

傑克遜維爾於上半場最後一分鐘、僅餘十五秒且尚握有一次暫停之際,在費城一碼線處取得首攻。

After a first-down run failed to gain any yardage, the Jaguars promptly exhausted their final timeout.

首攻跑球未能推進後,美洲虎旋即耗盡其最後一次暫停。

Trevor Lawrence then threw two incomplete passes, and on the final play of the first half, Bhayshul Tuten lost six yards on a run instead of allowing the Jaguars to attempt a field goal.

Trevor Lawrence繼而兩度傳球未果,Bhayshul Tuten則於上半場最後一檔跑球中損失六碼,而非讓美洲虎得以踢射門。

With only 6:40 remaining in the game and the Jaguars trailing 10–14, Coen once again forsook a prime opportunity for a short-range field goal.

當比賽僅餘6分40秒、美洲虎以10比14屈居劣勢之際,Coen再度放棄了一次短距離射門的良機。

Lawrence's pass from Philadelphia's 5-yard line fell incomplete.

Lawrence自費城5碼線的傳球未能完成。

While the Jaguars' backup long snapper does present certain concerns, those field goals were all eminently makeable short kicks.

美洲虎的替補長開球手固然存在若干隱憂,然而那些射門皆屬輕而易舉的短踢。

As for DaVon Hamilton's snap on the game-winning play, it was impeccable and precisely on target.

至於DaVon Hamilton於致勝一擊時的開球,則恰如其分、精準到位。

In the Washington game, both the Giants and the Commanders had, during the overtime period, seized the opportunity to run out the clock and kick a game-winning field goal.

在華盛頓一役中,巨人與指揮官於延長賽階段皆曾掌握耗盡時鐘、踢進致勝射門的契機。

With only two minutes remaining, New York had already advanced into range for a 42-yard field goal attempt.

紐約於僅餘兩分鐘之際,已然推進至可嘗試42碼射門的範圍。

However, Dominic Zvada had already missed from 50, 57, and 46 yards in succession, and head coach John Harbaugh was therefore eager to shorten the field goal distance.

然而,Dominic Zvada此前已相繼於50碼、57碼及46碼失手,總教練John Harbaugh因而亟欲縮短射門距離。

Unexpectedly, Cam Skattebo fumbled, thereby handing the opportunity over to Washington.

詎料,Cam Skattebo掉球,遂將機會拱手讓予華盛頓。

Jayden Daniels led the Commanders down to the Giants' 26-yard line.

Jayden Daniels率領指揮官推進至巨人26碼線。

On first down, Rachaad White ran for 2 yards and was tackled with just under 50 seconds remaining.

首攻之際,Rachaad White跑球2碼,於剩餘不足50秒時遭擒抱。

With no timeouts left, Washington faced several options, given that a successful field goal would end the game.

由於已無暫停可用,華盛頓面臨數種抉擇,蓋踢進射門即告終場。

Rather than spiking the ball to stop the clock and then attempting the kick, the Commanders huddled first.

指揮官並未選擇以砸球停錶後再行踢射,而是先行聚商。

Daniels approached the line of scrimmage with about 20 seconds left and snapped the ball with 12 seconds remaining.

Daniels於剩餘約20秒時趨向開球線,並於剩下12秒時開球。

He neither spiked the ball nor threw it out of bounds.

他既未砸球,亦未將球擲出界外。

Daniels chose to run, was tackled, and Washington no longer had time to attempt a field goal.

Daniels選擇跑球,遭擒抱,華盛頓已無餘裕踢射門。

Commanders head coach Dan Quinn readily accepted responsibility, though it remains unclear whether Daniels believed the team still had a timeout at its disposal.

指揮官教練Dan Quinn慨然承擔責任,惟Daniels是否以為球隊尚握有暫停一事,目前仍不明朗。

"The play call on that sequence should not be pinned on (Daniels)," Quinn said.

「那個進攻序列的安排不該歸咎於(Daniels),」Quinn說。

"It should have been a pass out of bounds or a clock stoppage — throw it out of bounds, or stop the clock.

「那本應是向外傳球或停錶——傳出界外,或停錶。

That decision has to rest with me.

這必須由我來定奪。

I have to put him in that position.

我必須將他置於那個位置上。

Had I done so earlier, we could have gotten the kick off sooner.

我本可以更早這樣做,我們便能更早完成射門。

We didn't need to gain any more yardage."

我們無需再推進更多碼數。」

Regardless of whether the decision-making authority ultimately rested with the Eagles or the Commanders (1–3–1), no such lapse can be excused.

姑且不論決策權究竟操諸老鷹抑或指揮官(1勝3敗1和)之手,此等過失皆無可寬宥。
