Why pass the ball? Ryan could get hit and break his spine.

In the mind of people who aren't EV nerds, elimination > reduction, it's that simple.
The problem when people say things like "9% chance of winning" and are then laughed at because "ZOMG 9% why bother" is that people never express the % chance of the alternative when discussing the option i.e that if you choose to not go for it the Falcons win 5% of the time or whatever the %'s say.

People purely think that since going for it means you lose a higher % of the time you win, that the play is bad. Same thing when Atlanta played Philly in week 2(?) where Atlanta screwed up the game clock, allowing Philly to get off a hail mary into the endzone as well as a DeSean Jackson punt return attempt, when they should have never got the ball back.

When Mike Smith did that (screw up the gameclock management), he may have only given Philly a 5% of so chance of winning the game. But even if you tell someone that, MS still gave the Falcons a 95% chance of winning the game, so he must be a genius.

While it has never been publicly addressed, I'm pretty sure the Colts made a conscious decision not to use Manning on QB sneaks because of injury risk. I'm fairly certain its been years since his last one.

I wonder how hard it would be to teach your short-yardage back to take a snap and fall forward.

To be fair, Manning did start like a gazillion games in a row before this injury.

Bowling green coach prefers to be down 1 with 30 seconds left and 2 timeouts as opposed to 1:30 and 0 timeouts.

Yeah he didn't want to kick the 25 yard fg. Lol these coaches.

Broncos called to with 3 seconds left in the quarter instead of letting quarter run out. They must really love that side of the field.

Was probably Tebow and not the coach fwiw.

He burns time outs like crazy.

Frank Beamer screwed up something even Ron Zook figured out. How to run off the last 9 seconds of a game on 4th down.

Broncos calling a handoff to McGahee on 4th and inches instead of Tebow sneak.

Rex Ryan calling all out gut blitz against Tebow on third down though that's not "obviously terrible" I guess. The playcall on 4th and inches was.

Ron Zook just called a timeout for absolutely no reason other than being upset that his player fumbled and the other team recovered.

Did he at least know what the score was?

I think so. He was distinctly un-Zook like early on, went for a 4th and 14 from the 30 into a stiff wind.

And got it.

I was sure I'd missed something about food poisoning.

Clemson let's see. Down 30-3 kicks a fg when needed 4 td's. Then on 4th and 18 down 31 goes for the td from the 20. So they kick when they should go for it, and go for it when they should have kicked. Once again these people get paid and are allowed to breathe oxygen.

Don't forget all the fourth-quarter punting they did.

pretty sure i've seen similar stuff in the NFL a few times this year. coaches calling timeout just bc they want to yell at the ref some more. they're not challenging or anything, just mad and lighting TO's on fire (and a few times when it would have been beneficial to keep them in the pocket). seems odd. am i overvaluing TO's, or do a lot of coaches undervalue them?

30-3 = 4 score game

30-6 = 3 score game.

Just sayin'

Everyone enjoy another aggressive coach anus tighten when it matters? Chip Kelly over a minute left plays for a fg instead of going for a game winning td.
