Re: Read This
Euph, I have to continue to disagree. The team was up 3 points with 2 minutes left with the opposition with a single TO left. You have the ball.
Three kneeldowns and a punt would have secured the game. It was THAT PLAY that lost the game. If it doesn't get run, then the game is over. Our defense is what it is. They are going to give up big plays and tons of yards. They just do primarily because of scheme, but that's another story for another day. However, they scored 9 points and held TB to field goals when they should scored TDs. So despite the plays they gave up, they still gave the Saints a chance to win. And the coach gave that chance away on that one play that should have never ever been called. I wish Payton would actually read my signature. It's been here for awhile. SFIAH |

This is true. It should have never gotten to that play. We should have been so far ahead of them that that play wasn't even needed.
I also have to agree with the point that that was a stupid call. All we had to do was get a first down and run out the clock. No need to get cute. |
