re: The absurdity of the 4th quarter

Which is why the HC position and the play caller should be 2 separate people.

Can we be real?

How do we even know who is calling plays?

If I remember right, the play call was late getting in because Payton was looking at the replay & asking for help upstairs to see if Ingram had gotten in on the play before. The play clock was running down & they had to call a timeout. Yeah it was fricked up but what were the other options? Should Payton have not even checked to see Ingram got in on the play before?

call in a play as if he didnt make it while your team looks to see if he did?

cause payton has that big white sheet w/ his reading glasses on and talking shite into the mic before every offensive down...?

Those are head coaching white sheets.
And the shite he's talking is head coaching stuff.

Go no huddle and punch it in like the Eagles did vs the Falcons

Throw the challenge flag immediately. Penalty is a lost challenge and a timeout. Saves you at least 40 seconds

Basically anything but what we did down 2 scores in the 4th

 It just took too much time to verify that Ingram didn't get in. The play clock would have been wound down regardless. .

You call the play in immediately and throw the challenge flag if you need to. That should be secondary when you're at the 1.

It was incredibly stupid. Time was our biggest enemy
