Was nervous as soon as I saw them run it. Wasnt totally surprised with the outcome.

 

2x beast or sneak Wilson. At most roll Wilson out on olay action, and only throw if TE or WR is wide open on blown coverage. If they get to 4th thats when they can try last play

 

Who made the call:

 

Carroll?

OC?

Wilson audible?

Most definitely. That's all I have ever seen Seattle do with 1-2 yards to punch it in... Lynch or designed roll-out.

Seattle outsmarted themselves by getting away from the most reliable recipe that has given them success in such short yardage. Bewildering.

I'm waiting to hear what Marshawn says about the play call in his press conference....

"I think they should be fined..."

And new england hired the guy the Browns didn't want.

 

Seriously, what do you get by constantly $hitting on everyone's posts?

 

Fair enough about NE. But pointing out that the Bills hired who they did is not $hitting on a post. Wasn't my top choice (nor Kim's--lol), but I'm on record as getting behind the hire.

I usually don't care because it's just a game and these guys make millions, but I genuinely felt bad for the Seahawks coach after that game. Regardless of how stupid that call was, it basically went as badly as it could and he will literally never live it down for the rest of his career or llife. You could see it in his eyes. He'll still be mulling it over in his head while he's trying to fall asleep 30 years from now.

Yup.

 

If you run three times and they stuff you it's still heartwrenching but you can eventually live with it. You got beat.

 

But they literally handed them the Lombardi with that idiotic call.

And the worst part is, Belichick completely choked by failing to call a TO and letting the clock run. Marshawn pounds it in and the Pats have no time left.

He didnt choke. He decided to let it ride. 3 plays and they HAVE to score or WE WIN. He didnt call the time out because he was willing to put the game on the line right then and there and it paid off.

I don't disagree, I just don't think this is the tag line of this Super Bowl if Chris Collins doesn't go nuts about it. And I'm sure it's not if they score on the play.

Collins was right to go nuts about it, IMO. It was so blatantly obvious. Run the ball with Marshawn Lynch...2nd down and time-out left. Why throw vs that secondary?

I beg to differ. While the play call was questionable, that rookie DB made a GREAT play and took the Lombardi from the Hawks. That undrafted rook made one helluva play.

Questionable? Reprehensible if you ask me.

 

Not taking anything away from the young DB. He made a great play after that disgraceful play call.

I run it for two reasons:

 

1) It's Beast Mode for a SB win

2) Grind more time off the clock if we don't make it

 

Just awful all around on the pass. The Patriots* D was slumping... That's when you line up and slam it right at them.

 

But thankfully they aren'y my team! If it was the Bills Rex and Roman smash it in and head up to make us all cry as they hoist the trophy!
