re: Payton's Inexcusable Timeout Management

You couldn't be more wrong.

I'm sure The Sexecutioner knows more about these things than Sean Payton. He seriously COULD be making 8 mill a year coaching football, he just chooses not to. Its far more rewarding sitting in his parents garage.
Do you say the same thing about Miles? Surely nobody who isn't a coach knows more about clock managment than him.

He's not dumb, he's correct. I was pissed about the 2:01 timeout.
Why? It's smart

Oh, I'm sure he can, and he will.

Strawman. I never said it didn't increase their chances of passing. It obviously did.
Which is why the timeout was called. That's not a strawman.

The first half TO was bad, but the second half was pure coaching brilliance. As an LSU fan, it was a breath of fresh air.
If your D can't stop their O, you play for overtime. Therefore, you let the clock run down to 2:00 before attempting the game tying FG.
However, our D was shutting down their O AND our O has quick scoring ability AND our kicker was having a good day. Therefore, you play for the win in regulation, which means:
1. Call timeout at 2:11
2. Kick game tying FG (if you miss it, step 1 gives you a shot at getting the ball again)
3. Kick a touchback so the 49ers have to run a play before the 2-minute warning
4. If the clock is anywhere above 2:00 after said play, call a TO
5. Get a stop
6. Brees gonna Brees
7. You still have a timeout to set up the FG
8. Hartley gonna '09
9. Profit

Can we stop questioning the timeouts, please? CSP knows what he's doing, much more than us. Give it up.
actually, we should be able to criticize Payton for that 1st half timeout…that was quite an embarrassment
also, letting Lance fair catch a punt deep in our territory when all we are going to do is take it to halftime..also very questionable
you can criticize bad decision making yet still give the man props…he's a top 3 coach in the league; doesn't mean he's invincible

No, they don't run a play before the 2 minute warning. Coming out of the warning they can decide if they want to run the ball to force a timeout or throw the ball and be aggressive.
The timeout before the 2:00 minute warning actually makes 2nd down playcall more predictable.

Do you think that Sean Payton has proven to be a more successful, better prepared, smarter coach than Miles on virtually every level?

Not much is but, this is pretty full blown retard.

Why are CSP and I the ones the ones wrong? Everything unfolded like he planned it and I was expecting it. You are griping bc his winning strategy was different than you theoretical strategy that we will never know if it would have worked.

Listening to Cowherd this morning, Trent Dilfer said Payton's clock management in the last 2 minutes was the best he'd ever seen out of a head coach. Said Payton belongs in a select group with Belichick as the best coaches in the NFL. He may know a little more than the OP.

We had two TOs and the 2 minute warning at the start of the last defensive drive. We're playing to get the ball back. At the start of the drive, you have to assume that you're going to burn all your TOs to get the ball back. Therefore, the most important thing is conserving enough time to drive down the field with no TO's, even if it's just one second.
It ended up being a moot point because of the incomplete pass and Kaep running out of bounds. Coach SP made the right choice given the circumstances.
