Re: The Final TD, DA's Lack of Authority, and the Consequence of Salary Cap Paralysis

On the drive before they tried to get Williams a TD but they had the penalty on the goal line that pushed them back so they ended up passing it to AT Perry for his second TD. You could see they were trying to get him a TD the whole game. There’s a difference between watching football and understanding what you’re seeing. If the Saints line up in a regular formation DA’s calling a timeout. It was all about Williams and the fact the entire team was on board but DA wasn’t isn’t a coincidence. Call it bush league. Call it cheap. Call it what you want. Don’t throw a pick trying to score a TD down by almost 30 with 1 minute left on the clock. If the game is out of reach kneel and go home if you don’t want the other team to score again. There was no reason for them to still be trying to score. They weren’t coming back. They even had their backup QB in. Keep all the crybaby, unwritten rule **** in baseball.

Ben Watson is wrong here. Just imagine if a defender was injured on this play. How dumb would everyone look then?

And another thing, why the **** does DA keep sending Jameis Winston out to take a knee at the end of the game? What’s the point of that? Put your $40 million golden goose in and let him take the knee. I’m sure he’d fall in line and follow orders since he got him a $150 million contract.

If you want your favorite teammate to finally score, lineup in the I-formation or buy him a hooker.

Two thoughts on this...

1. For a guy like Ben Watson to come out and say DA has lost the team is telling.

2. In Jameis' interview, he kept referring to DA. Not Coach Allen, DA. That's telling as well.

I’d give JW the game ball for that “not-knee” alone.
