Why not take the TO?

[kidhawk]

Seems dumb

Kick the FG.

Yeah why not take 1 shot at the end zone?

Good call take the points. One shot from the 23 yard line a lot more chance something goes wrong like a sack or a grounding that ends the half then getting a td. I like the call not to push it there

This one baffled me you had to use the timeout anyway it cost you a shot at the end zone by not taking it .

It makes no real World game sense. As long as they win the game it won't matter, but if they end up losing a close game...that will be ugly.

Think it was a mental error.


But, they may not have wanted Sam to throw a 50/50 ball, and toss away the streak

Because with 13 seconds and no timeouts from the 23 yard line a lot can go wrong. don't want to risk anything.

I have no problem with it. Too many things can go wrong with no way to stop the clock

If they were concerned about that, they sure as hell wouldn't have let him throw that last pass to JSN.

 

[xgeoff]

It was weird but I’m fine taking the points

Why?


That was at least a play that had a decent chance.

Not a 50/50 ball at best

Yea after time to consider I can understand taking the points and walking out with a 24 point lead but as a fan I wanted him to take one more shot.

It was a difficult throw, just saying if the main concern was keeping him perfect they probably would have gone safer than that. Granted, anything in JSN's general vicinity feels safe these days.

If they lose this game more than just that will be ugly

If they lose a close game there are way more problems than that TO at this point lol

Never said “main concern”.

Just that in that moment and situation it may have been a consideration

 

[GemCity]

Took the time off…plan was likely FG the whole time.

Secondary - I was half joking
The main point was they were happy taking 3 from that drive
