Going for fourth down on the 1 yard line resulting in a fumble and then fumbling inside the 5 once again. Just terrible coaching and execution from Denver all around

Well this isn’t true lol
We absolutely know that the numbers DONT say to kick a 64yd fg which has only been done like twice in the history of the nfl lol
You are certifiable lol

Why?
They want it to be at the buzzer if they kick it

Because the kicker can make it and win the game. I have no problem with kicking it there. McManus has plenty of leg. He missed it, score more the 16 points in the other 59 minutes of the game
All of this is so frickin stupid.

You have to calculate the chances of getting a first down and then making a 59 yard field goal opposed to just a 64 yard field goal.
Could you let me know the numbers on that? Answer: no, you can't

You had 45 seconds and a 4th & 5 with 3 TOs and you settled for a 64 yd fg atrempt.
Must've thought they were in Mile High...
I mean how many kickers have kicked a 60+ FG that wasn't at Mile High?
Matt Prater isn't walking through that door.

We could do what's been done once in the history of the sport or we can get 5 yards. Can't figure out what's more difficult.

Whats the delta between a 59 and 64 yard field goal? Weigh that against first having to get the first down and then making the field goal.

And most people don't understand math
Option 1
Let the clock run and kick a 64 yard field goal, only twice in nfl history has this distance or more been accomplished
Option 2
Take 1 of your 3 timeouts with 50 seconds left. You then have two timeouts and need 5 yards to keep the chains. If you make the first, you still have 40 seconds left and two timeouts to pick up even more yards
But yeh, you really understand math and no other human does

They can also pick up 5 yds for the 1st down then call timeout. Guess which is easier.
To be fair. They were 5 yards away from a TD 3 separate times and came up with nothing so it's not like that was a gimmie for them.

It was a question
Posted on 9/12/22 at 10:22 pm to LSUlefty
I like how you conveniently leave out the 4th and 5 part

No, they had 3 TOs. They could get the first then stop the clock then get more yards but even if all they got was make it 59 yards ITS STILL EASIER.

How are these guys so fricking terrible at the most high profile and important part of their job?

64 fricking yards out? I’m sorry, but no, that’s beyond almost all kickers skills. It’s not his fault they lost. It is the coach’s who is similarly as retarded as you.

You moved the goal posts. That's what I said to do. Once you don't take the timeout it changes the equation because you can't move the ball further forward.

1. You are assuming the get exactly 5 yards only
2. After the first down if they made it, they would have 40 plus seconds and two timeouts still to get even more yards
