Terrible call in that situation.


how is that terrible? what the hell should you call in that situation?

and it was not almost stopped in the backfield, at all, he was never touched until he was in the endzone.

i don't mind a bootleg with Jefferson, since he was coming in anyways. personally i would have taken my chances with 4 pass plays. CONSIDERING we have problems with time management.

i've seen 4 plays in about 12 seconds.

Why in the frick at the most critical time in the game do you go with what you do 2nd best? It was a horrible call.


oh, I agree...there was simply no reason not to keep Lee on the field, they had time to run three more plays. Having JJ run the option was not a great call, but the change up with that much time remaining wasn't a "bad" call, assuming they had been ready for the next play.

The bigges blunder had to be with 26 second left and this clown tries to run a different personel grouping on the field...Jefferson is no where to be found...runs up to the line and misses the sanp. Les GO F _ _ _ yourself

that wasn't really a bad call (although I wouldn't have made it), not having him armed with a second play though, was horrendous


ANY QB worth his salt KNOWS what the next play is in that situation. If the run play doesn't work, line up IMMEDIATELY and spike the ball. The number of downs is not the limiting factor at that point, the time is. He shouldn't even have to worry about what the coaches want to call at that point.

I also noticed earlier that the sidelines are still waiting too long to call timeouts. They lose 5-10 seconds almost every time.
