Think about that for a second........................

That is ALOT... its not like im pulling 4th down plays every time out. It was 1 time a 4th and 2 I went for it and got it, I was trying to grab the big momentum at the beginning of the game after I picked him off, it is what it is.. The next trip down I got stopped 4th and 3.... and guess what? I KICKED THE FIELD GOAL....

I've said that countless times in this discussion. It really amazes me how you literally can not read an entire post.

Let me sum it up:

I'm fine with not being realistic. I'm fine with being realistic. Don't preach being realistic, and then not be realistic. Let me know which way we're going with this.

It's really not. And you have to remember that the % of success on 4th downs is much higher in a video game. (Which is why a lot of people have a problem with people going for it all the time.)

And I don't give a shite what you did in the last game. I had nothing to do with that game. This is about what happens going forward.

So going by the rules, 1 time going for a 4th down and 2 at the 30 and that is not realistic? So you have never in your life watched a real life football game where they went for a 4th down 1 time in a game when they were tied or leading the game? Never?

Its not like im going for 4th downs every time I get a 4th, not like im going for 4th and inches behind the 50 either. You act like In going for every 4th down, no punting no FGs. I have probably kicked more times than any team so far...

In the 1st quarter at the opponents 30 with a healthy kicker? No. I mean, I wouldn't be shocked if there was a time, but I can't recall any, perhaps in college? Maybe Chip Kelly has with the Eagles. I'm not trying to start anything, I just simply don't recall a time where I've seen that.

Edit: Also, if you were at his say, 44, 45, I'd completely understand going for it. That's a long FG, but not the 30.

i really don't give a shite anymore. You can't stay on point. And you obviously have no intention on understanding.

Just give me a new rule or say as long as I follow the specific rule I'm fine.

Okay, well I get Brady did it a lot but did he do it in the 1st quarter on his opponents 30 in a scoreless game? I mean, I'm done talking about it, it's over and I agree with you and Mets, you clearly stated it in the beginning, we just don't see it as realistic as all in that situation. That's all, but I'm done and again, you were in the right to do so.

4th and 2 on the 30 is no man's land on the road.

I say fair call.

ETA: And I hate the Patriots.

You can set the rule. This isn't a dispute. I'm not asking that you vacate the win or anything.

I just want clarification of what the rule is for the future.

I'm also trying to make you aware that what you did sets a precedent for other people. What it tells me is that anytime I want to go for it and the situation meets the rule in place then I can. If you're fine with that then ok.

The guy you were playing, me and Kyle had a different understanding of what the rule was meant to do.

Maybe not no man's land, but there's certainly a decision that has to be made in that situation.

Do most teams take the points there? I'll concede that.

I have no issue with someone going for that though.
