or, we just run it, and give the rookie QB a long field and 1 minute on the clock, instead of 1:45
Ur arguing hypotheticals

Drew threw an incompletion and our defense made a stop

Could itve been done differently? Sure. Could itve been done better? Possibly

I really liked the call because Ivory of all people was in the flat and would have certainly caught the ball and ran or ran over someone for the 1st down, it was the hussle by a lineman that broke it up, now if it were a lb., corner, or safety it more than likely been bad news, I also like that Payton is getting Ivory in the passing game and finally shows he is trusting Ivory more than just being a hard nose runner. Ivory can be a deadly all around back given time.

I was always taught to RUN THE BALL, RUN THE CLOCK.

if we would have ran it; they would have got the ball with around 30 secs left and none of that last second heart attack would have happened...

Win Game first. Break records later. Run the ball.

One fact that is not hindsight: Run the ball and there is under a minute left instead of almost 2 for Titans.

I did not like the call - a run takes 40+ seconds off the clock before we have to kick!!

We live by it and we have died by it too. Sean is aggressive and Drew is too. We were fortunate today, but we've come out on top of our fair share as a direct result of being aggressive.

I would have dog-cussed Brees worse than I did if that pass had been a pick 6!!
