Still shaking that we didn't just kick a 30 yard FG on 4th and 1 with 5 minutes left

One of the dumbest things I've ever witnessed. The game is legitimately over if we kick that (assuming Grupe doesn't miss an extra point distance kick).

Was that the play Derek carr pretends to be Taysom hill?

I'm all for going for it on 4th and inches.

More the flow of the game than analytics.

Grupe already doinked one, it was one yard, and converting allows us to burn more clock. Defense had the hot hand so it wasn't as risky to give the ball back.

If I trusted Grupe more I might take the points.

No way an NFL should ever fail that conversion. It was lazy playing...I think Carr thought he could just quick snap and easily get it.

No problem with going for it.
No problem with the play call.
Big problem with rushing to the line and rushing the play.

yeah, that was definitely a dipshit moment.

not getting that first and then Grupe doinking a kick later on.

if that was a good team we were playing today, we would have lost.

we let them hang around wayyyy to too long. Just so happens the D started playing like they should have the whole game in the 2nd half.

Yes not going for the fg was just as dumb as taking the holding call early in the game instead of giving them a 4th and 2 and what would probably be a FG attempt at about 30 yards we gave them another shot at 3rd and 12.

Of course he gets the first down and then the TD.

Grupe's doink was after this play. At this point of the game, Grupe was 1/1 from 55.

This was the second time this year that Allen decided against taking points to essentially seal the game (GB he punted from the GB 37 in the 4th quarter).

The one that would have been good from 30 yards?

Makes you wonder how bad the free agents are. Surely there’s some castoff looking for a fresh start.

Pretty sure his last kick was the 50+ yarder before this miss. He doinked it later in the 4th.
