Some facts regarding the decision to throw the ball on that infamous 3rd-and-2

[Ivan The Awesome]

I just noticed there's a lot of 'ifs' in your 'facts', Last time I checked, ifs don't belong with facts.

[Sloth]

do you know how to allowances for the difference between the quality of a play called by the coach and the quality of the players' execution of it?

The very first play of the game was a red zone interception caused by timing issues.

Just took the lead, driving, lets chuck it on 3rd and 2. What could happen?

[Fox007]

Who said Rivera sucks BTW?

Well I actually don't really like the Newton up the middle runs. If they are going to do that I wish they would delay it more and wait for the middle to open up like they were actually going to pass the ball then have him take off.

I like them to as long as nothing happens to Cam, but IMO its only a matter of time. If we lose him for the rest of the season you would change your mind. That one he had this game I was holding my breath with that pileup that was happening. This not some RB that we can just replace, we are talking about our whole Offense here. DA is not Newton.

Yep you're right. We went from bottom of the league to top 5 offense in one season, so Chudz is totes a horrible coach thanks for helping me see the light Fox007.

Ranking accolades are meaningless next to victories. We are 1-4 and a top 5 ranking or an almost won defeatism isn't comforting at all!!!!!

lets test your theory

"Fact: if you throw a ball it will fall to the ground due to gravity."

theres an if that belongs with a fact. i'm not sure if you're drunk or simply desparate to squeeze in some golden axiom but you may want to edit that and come up with something better. you're going to have serious problems if you're basing your logic off such notions.

[Fox007]

The 2 option plays worked well but he did take a big shot on the last one.

[PhillyB]

Fact We had extra point blocked. An extra point!

Fact We called timeout at end of first half which gave NO time to kick a field goal.

Fact If the offense substitutes, the refs must hold up play in order to let the defense substitute. We would not have penalized for too many players on the field.

Fact We gave away 4 points. We lost by 3 points

what does this have to do with the particular play that this thread is blatantly about

If, I didn't throw a ball. So your point is moot. :thumbsup:

i'm not sure if you're serious and i like you as a poster so i don't want to dig into all the many and transparant reasons that your logic is fatally flawed but suffice it to say that if fox007 pies your opinion you should probably retreat to a monastery and rethink your life.

FACT: we will have a top 5 pick this yr

[Kevin Greene]

We are no longer sheep in a line mindlessly following along.

We think out of the box now.

Better get used to it.

i guess you already know all the scores too huh

[beastson]

But but but that's working and I thought winning teams stuck with what worked! We've yet to NOT get into the endzone when we're that close by running Cam.

You right it is working

But we dont have to rely on Cam for EVERYTHING. That's the problem. Cam got the throwing TD's and he got all the running TD's as well

No excuse why our RB's have on 1 rushing TD between them, with the first one coming in game 5
