Khiry Robinson runs nasty

Re: Khiry Robinson runs nasty

I wish they would have gave Robinson the ball at the end of the first half. Up by 7, at you're own 4 yard line, the Cardinals only having 1 timeout and with 1:30 on the clock, it would have made sense all around. Having Brees throw out of the endzone in that situation was a formula for disaster. Run the ball, use up the clock, go to the half with a 7 point lead, and come out getting the ball to open the 2nd half. Bad coaching that Payton got away with.

And have him fumble on the 4, and have Arizona tie the game? No thanks. Sorry, that would be an absolutely terrible coaching move, to give the ball to an undrafted rookie who has NEVER PLAYED A SNAP IN A REAL FOOTBALL GAME BEFORE, in that situation, on your own 4 yard line like that.They would be ripping his head off, trying to stand him up and strip the ball. Putting him in at the end of the game was LOW RISK HIGH REWARD, and I'm sorry but that is good coaching. Putting Khiry in on the 4 yard line is HIGH RISK LOW REWARD, the exact opposite of what kind of situations you want to put him in.

They are all rookies at one time, drafted or not and the sooner you put it in their hands to see them in action the better. If it was 4th and inches with the game on the line I had rather put it in someones hands before pass but that's just me I like smash mouth football. Either way you make it or you don't, rookie or vet. I say play the guy now!!

I didn't understand the timeouts, offensively or on D. From our 9, we call timeout. Ariz is driving, and we are stopping the clock.
Ohh, and why did we keep the KO in play after the second TD? Ariz had 1 TO left.
