I also wish we had run it on 3rd down after Etling channeled his inner JJ and almost threw an interception. I had just told my buddy, I don't trust him to make a throw here on third down after that, let's run it, kick a field goal and go up by 2 Tds... And boom, he throws a pick next play. And for those who think I'm being a negatiger, I'm obviously thrilled with the win and the turnaround we've shown. I'm simply making an observation on one play. Which is what a football forum is for, no? This post was edited on 10/23 at 11:27 am


Totally agree. In hindsight, I really don't fault the play call there. Danny just got a little greedy.

However, the positives FAR outweighed the negatives with him last night. We can win down the stretch with that kind of performance. He really just had those 2 bad throws back to back, and he showed a lot of metal bouncing back and making two throws to extend the last TD drive.

It was a mistake, but an aggressive mistake. I like the play to win attitude on offense so far, but you run the clock out there.
