Lutz kicked that ball so different than his previous ones. He kicked the shite out of it and got it up high. Had it not gone high, they had a chance at a block thanks to baffoon peat.

I was less concerned about the time and more concerned that it was 3rd down. I thought there was time to at least try a quick slant or something.


He thought it was 2nd down because of the loss of down on the previous spike and intentional grounding call.

Truth! It’s real easy for we fans to sit back and watch the sky cam view of the whole field while eating snacks and drinking to make an accurate call in real time. Much harder when you’re trying to manage personnel, assignments, get a play call every one is in place for, identify defensive alignment, not get crushed by 300 lb men, all while ensuring enough time is on the clock to give the FG unit a chance and you’re not committing a penalty.


Yes. Being a fan is easier than a starting NFL QB.

Which is why we pay to do it and they make millions of dollars.

Honestly I think he and DA just panicked. DA basically admitted to it, glad we got the win. I mean they played clutch but definitely some panicking with clock management



That was some of the worst clock management I've ever seen and I guess this victory was just meant to be, because we did everything possible to lose this game after clawing our way back in

It was impressively bad by both teams in that final minute.

I thought the clock was stopped on the broadcast by mistake. How did the entire sideline not notice that the ref called him out of bounds?

I had to watch that play a few times to realize how the ref missed the call though - the Falcons safety coming in ran through Landry and into the ref right as he caught the ball. So he had to take his eyes away from the play to not get himself mauled.

You figure for LSU/Saints fans it’s BAU.

Jameis is gaining valuable experience with clock management. Usually by :20, he would have thrown a game ending int by then. Baby steps folks.

I’ll get downvoted but those are the little things that Drew never would have done that we have to watch out with Jameis. In his defense he did show up at the end when it mattered with a few absolute laser throws. His arm talent is undeniable. Pure arm talent he’s up there with Rodgers, Josh Allen and Justin Herbert.

Should have spiked the ball with 5 seconds left. You either win the game or you don't. But the kick should be the last play of the game.

Jameis didnt know it was third down. He was surprised when he found out it was 4th down and we had to kick. We lost the down on grounding call. Prob why he was confused and thought he would have another play.


I think this is exactly what happened. And although it’s easy to beat him up for not having the situational awareness, with the adrenaline pumping at full steam, I think there has to be coach in his ear giving him the situation.
