1:40 left in OT and you don’t run the clock down before attempting the FG. Kicking the FG is perfectly fine but he would have given an unnecessary opportunity to Chicago if he missed.

Guys making millions to coach a game have to be better. Inexcusable.

Didn’t want to risk fumble or anything. Kick it, take the W and get out of there

And that’s after he stopped the clock for the Bears right before OT just to complain to the refs.

Just terrible all around

So do that after two knees to run the clock down, win or tie rather than win or risk losing

They could have kneeled the ball.

We've done enough kneeling this year. It was time to win with our leader Drew Brees

Arizona did the same thing last week, but missed the FG. Luckily for them they got the ball back and won

I'm happy we won but this isn't some new fresh hot take.

he can be incredibly arrogant in situational football.

The decision to kick was fine.

Not kneeling after Chicago called the timeout seemed awful!

If anything bad happens there and they allow Chicago to score with that much time left.. that would have been devastating.

They should have got the clock to at least under 1 minute.

And made the field goal try further away? Makes sense.

Anyone saying otherwise is retarded. All you do by kicking right away is give the Bears a shot at the win if you miss.

I'd guess the odds of us fumbling are much, much lower than the offs of the Bears getting into FG range if we missed.

that is retard logic. Far far far greater odds of missing the FG or it getting blocked or something going wrong than a fumble on a QB sneak with Brees

Then don't kneel and run the ball.

I was shocked by that, especially when Chi used their final timeout. Take a couple knees, then kick it

He wanted to show Lutz that he had confidence in him.

Worse coaching from Dennis Allen letting his DBs leave the sideline open with 23 seconds left on third and 19 from midfield and no timeouts for the Bears. Give them the middle of the field to the 35 and make them have to run a play no huddle with no timeouts and a running clock.

Payton and Allen are terrible managing a game.

Do Your Job!

35 yard FG is a piece of cake. Payton sending message to Lutz he has confidence in him.

I’d show confidence by making him my starling kicker not by hamstringing myself in the event that something goes wrong on the kick.

Nah I was fine with it with the way that game was going
Probably would have got some ridiculous holding call to knock Saints out of fg range
