Which they did easily. But obviously we didn't know that at the time.

So basically the question is, what do you think is harder for the opponent to do, get in the endzone with under two mins or kick a FG to tie it and then most likely get sent to OT. You can't just assume you're going to make that 4th down, especially with the way the offense seemed out of sync all game. And did you forget who their kicker is? Matt Bryant doesn't miss.


And even if they had scored there, I probably would have been pissed, but I know that what they did was right. You just have to hope your defense can hold keep them out of the endzone. if not you're playing for OT basically if you miss it. If it had been another game where I feel like the offense was more in sync, maybe.

Don't try to 'splain it to him. He won't get it.
That's why he loves Obama so much, too - he don't get it.
