re: A Memo to Coach Les Miles - an appeal to show CHARACTER

I don't want Miles fired, and haven't called for it. I haven't even got into the whole JJ vs JL thing, because my only questions pertain to game plan, play calling, adjustments & baffling decisions. I know these will never be answered, so it's futile to even post them, but I'm a curious person.

Play calling in the 4th, especially to start the 4th. What was that all about? Why was there no sense of urgency? The FB dive...seriously, WTF? Why weren't we throwing the kitchen sink at this point? This is the BCSNCG, there's literally nothing after this.

Now on to the punts. I can give the punt @13:00 a pass, down by 2 scores, D has played reasonably well, but what about the punt @ 2:58? Was he essentially waving the white flag? Did he start waving it to start the 4th? I understand if he didn't think either QB could be successful, but don't you at least have to try? If he hadn't conceded defeat in the 4th, was he doing what has been described as "damage control"? Didn't want the score to get too bad?

I think these are all reasonable questions. And before some superfan posts it, yes, I know Miles doesn't owe me anything. So save your schtick.
