That was the worst of many bad play calls.

We actually had some momentum at that momentum ad Peetz gave it all away.

That was the play when I figured we weren’t going to win

If o didn’t like it why didn’t he step in and override the call
It was baffling
Not to mention after big ot 3rd down conversion should have run the ball on first down or try and find te over middle

Definitely a head scratcher.

If Price hadn't fumbled and got a 1st down, everyone would have been praising our genious OC. It wasn't a terribly bad play. Shite happens.

If it had worked, it would have been genius. Really, TDP gotta catch that snap.

Yup. Mind boggling play call. Absolutely lost the game. We had all the momentum, Nuss was rolling. We would have won big if that fumble doesn’t happen.

Not here to defend it, but wildcat is a very safe play call. Not sure if I’ve ever seen a missed snap on wildcat.

The play that gets me is 1mins left in the game, 4th and 1. Man up and go win.

I said it last night and I’ll stick with it so downvote away, but it’s always easy to say this knowing the outcome of the call.

I’m certain Jake wouldn’t have called it either if he knew Price was going to fumble. If he gets 1 yard or no gain but holds onto the snap, no one would make a post.

Hell, if he gets a first or scores, people would want to know why we weren’t running stuff like this/mixing it up before last night.

Realistically is was just another running play, perhaps not a good call, but you are more mad at the result than the call

It was a bad snap. Not a bad call. How do you know the play doesn't get positive yards if Shanahan puts just a decent snap to Davis-Price?

You can't bitch about the play call when they can't even snap the ball. Bitch about the OL not coaching up the center to not understand there's a RB not a QB he's snapping to.

Not as bad as 5 straight first down runs up the middle. It’s like we wanted to be 2nd and 9.

How many times this year did peetz call a downfield pass on 3rd and 3? Sustain the drive not go for low % shots.
Yep glad he's gone.

In about 20 years of existence the wildcat has worked about 1% of the time

Yet coaches continue to call it

I don’t know what y’all don’t get. We have run that play successfully countless times this year

Oh wait no we have never run it.

That call makes Curley Hallman look good.
