I "know" what I just said.....

Just give Longwell the shot !!??
No different a chance (percentage wise) than a hail-mary ???

2 side notes:

1) I LOVE THIS TEAM !!
2) What the hell was Atlanta thinking with that on-sides kick with 8 seconds left - to even give us a shot ??????

Longwell cant even boot a kickoff into the endzone.

Also, I think it was a failed squib kick and not an onside.

I would have loved to seen Ryan get a shot at it, his leg strength is incredible.

65 just isn't happening I'd put it at 0% for Longwell who just got off the couch to come kick for us this week. We beat Green Bay on a last gasp heave so I didn't mind it, I wouldn't have minded a middlish throw to Rice to set up a lateral to the other side of the field to Tate or something either.

Funny, didn't Pete try a 61 yarder with Hauschka against the Falcons last year? And the final score, 30-28.

Either way is low percentage, you just have to hope for the best by that point.

First thing that popped into my mind with 2 seconds left.

Longwell was charged up with a chance to have an epic comeback in the playoffs, and a chance to set the record. It's indoors. Adrenalin beats old age this time. I wish they would have tried. It's as good of odds as a hail Mary.
If the odds are the same, why not put it in the hands of RW?

I hear you man, but he didnt give us a great kick ONCE in the game. I had no faith in him.
