Coach Chud Believes the 4th and 1 call was the right one

[csx]

Calling a pass play with Smitty on the bench, a yard out.......asking a QB who struggled mightily all day with short passes to go to last optiom in Hartsock was the right call?

That is a throw that any QB in the NFL should be able to make, much less one who is supposed to revolutionize the position.

You people do realize Hartsock was open on happenstance, right? The pass notwithstanding. It was NOT the right call. This, the 'end justifies the means' crowd is baffling.

Happenstance? He ran a route and got open. Cam then tried to roll the football to him for some reason.

Is every play when someone gets open happenstance?

You could say that about almost any play call honestly.

I don't care for the play-call but we're going to have a real problem getting anyone to admit it was the wrong call when there was a receiver wide-fuging-open that Cam just missed getting the ball to.

He was so open that Olsen threw is hands up assuming it was a TD as soon as Cam released the ball.

Yeah that's kinda my point.

All any coach has to say when the playcall is questioned is "we had an open receiver - the play worked".
