Bangarang Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 McD is as conservative as they come. Get used to stuff like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roundybout Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 Like I said...the only possible logic here was that McD was hoping for a safety (to win) a pick (to set up a field goal) or a stop so that a field goal would win it. Stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 You’re not a bills coach until you punt on the 40 on 4th and 1. Jauron, mularkey, Greggo, Marrone, and Rex all did it. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo_Gal Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 I was screaming at the TV. They won, it all worked out as he had hoped, but man that call was (IMO) horrible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Domdab99 Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 I would seriously consider firing a coach who did that. One of the absolute worse calls I've ever seen. Gutless and playing for the tie when you HAVE to win! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok. Be angry all you want. The Bills could have been stuffed on 4th, who knows. It was likely they would get the ball back with the conditions .

KD in CA Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 Once again, we see why fans don't have jobs as NFL coaches. Given the conditions, he made the right call. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I was thinking on their entire TD drive. We'll get the ball back, no way they drive the field. 3rd and 8 converted. 3rd and 10 converted. First down by penalty. Two fourth down conversions. Did you also think that those were likely? (and OT was the best weather of the entire game) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D. L. Hot-Flamethrower Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 Some on here still conflate correlation with causation. Punting had nothing to do with being correct or leading to the win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawaii50 Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 Gotta give the coach credit when it works out. I didn't agree when he did it. However, he played the odds and won. Guess that's why he gets paid the big bucks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
