Don Capers did a get job plan and simple. He had the right defenses called all night long when the game was one line. It was almost like he had Paytons head phones bugged. Plan and simple he out coached Sean at every key moment.

Second guess is what fans do. but if u invest so much into a running game u have test it out. To bad Sean decided to do it in GB. Kind like opening up a new car for the first time and blowing right by a cop before getting out of 3rd gear. so sorry charlie

Great post, Hagan. Unfortunately for you guys, though, it reminded me of yet another story. Remember, if you are tired of all of Uncle LB's stupid ol' BS (yeah, Mike...it's OK for me to point it out...) stories, then just don't read it.

Anyway, back to the story.

When I was 18, I had something that everybody dreams of. I had an uncle with money...not a millionaire or nothing...just pretty good about not wasting his money and saving. But more important to me was that he used his money to buy a '63 Corvette Stingray.

He used to let me take that car out on dates from time to time...or just go cruise the B/K Lounge. (Burger King for you that didn't grow up in Gulfport) I would drive up to that parking lot and I would assign those girls numbers. OK...you first, and you 2nd...etc.

One night, though, I was out on a date with a girl from the other side of town. Man, when I look back...I really liked that girl...but that's another story.

We were driving down the beach (Hwy 90) and we were near the Lighthouse. I had been nursing this beer for a long time and I took a swallow and it was hot. Well, I had the top down on the 'Vette, and like a stupid kid might do...I tossed the remaining beer over my left shoulder.

Within 2 nanoseconds I heard the siren and saw the blue lights in my mirror. Not hard to miss when you have the top down. The guy pulled me over and asked me if I knew what the fine for littering was.

I said, "No, why do you ask?"

He said, "Because you just tossed you beer out of the car."

I said with a shocked look on my face, "Beer? I didn't have a beer."

He stopped for a second...took a real hard look into my eyes and with a stern look that only your dad would give you, he said, "Son...you threw a beer out of your car, and I know you did this because it hit my car! We're going to go over here and look at my fender, and if I see just 1 scratch, I'm hauling you in even though I am really suppose to be somewhere else right now!"

Well...we went and looked as he shined his flashlight on the front right fender of his car...and fortunately he didn't find the scratch. There had to have been one...but, believe it or not...he let me go on my way with no ticket.

So, Hagan...you can see that I pulled something just as stupid as what you mentioned. Couldn't help but remember that when you said that.

Anyway...back on topic. I agree with the people who said that hindsight is 20/20. We all would have liked to have seen different results...and I really do believe that Drew should have had the ability to go to the line and make his own call or audible...but if things would have gone differently...and he would have audibled to a roll-out or something and got stuffed there...we would all be hollering, "Why didn't he just try to run it up the middle?"

Whether you think you can or think you can't...you're right!
