Offside Number 76 Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 There would have been one timeout left. Still, the only move is to kick that field goal, once the refs determined it was fourth down at the end of the first half. You have to bet on your defense to not allow a long drive in 20 seconds. I can't believe that the two posters who think differently are sober/sane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuntheDamnBall Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 The "clueless redneck coaching this team" has probably forgotten more about football than you'll ever know. He's also made it to more playoff games in his two-year-plus head coaching career than the Bills have in the past ten, but carry on with your trolling. Disagree with his decisions if you want, but keep it about football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pine Barrens Mafia Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 take the points into the locker room. Only they didn't, and you knew they wouldn't because the defense couldn't stop anything today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cash Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 What was really stupid was taking the timeout as soon as the play ended. It was obviously close enough for either a measurement or a review, or both. At that point, you request a measurement, which temporarily stops the clock, and if you get the first down, take a time out, and if you don't get the first down, run the clock down and kick the field goal. Generally speaking, I think the move there is to go for it, but in our case, I was rooting for the FG, because that's how little faith I have in our O against their D. (Loser mentality, I guess.) We would've run it right up the gut, they would've known exactly what we were going to do, Wilfork would've collapsed the middle of the line, and Lynch or Jackson would've been thrown for a loss. But there's no excuse to kick a FG with 20+ seconds left when you could've kicked it with 4 seconds left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheChimp Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 Well according to you i am stupid, but the Bills decided to settle for three and by games end the Pats scored 38; so who is stupid. As if going for it with 4th and inches would have been such a bad decison. If you are too stupid, and i mean stupid, to understand what a bad decision that was, then stay off of this board You're on PCP, admit it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prissythecat Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 The game was lost today, when the clueless redneck coaching this team, decides to kick a field goal at the end of first half, instead of going for it on fourth and one inch. As if that 3 points was going to hold up against Brady. And Brady gets those 3 points back in 3 plays. The scrooge owner, after making a 900 million profit on this team/community, still cant bring himself to pay for a real coaching staff. Can we ever have a defensive coordinator who has ever been a defensive coordinator/head coach before? Its always the Bills have a D coordinator who is doing it for the first time. You could tell today. You get what you pay for Normally we would expect trolling from folks that just registered within the past few days or weeks. But it seems we have a troll who has been registered since 2001. Nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dean Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 Generally speaking, I think the move there is to go for it I agree with much of your post, except for the statement above. Given the score, the field position and time left on the clock, I think most coaches would take the points. Kicking the field goal is the measured and thoughtful move here. Given that, I was the only one in my group that wanted the team to go for it. I figured by going for it, Chan makes a statement to HIS team. "No more playing not to lose. No more playing it safe." The Bills have been very good in short yardage situations. I know it would be going against traditional logic, but I think the Bills may have to do the unexpected a few times this year. Now, had they gone for it and failed, I might understand this thread, as kicking the FG is the "right" move in this situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metzelaars_lives Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 You take the points on the road bozo. No to mention, God knows Marshawn runs right up the middle and gets stuffed for no gain if they go for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
