We are idiots gambling on these games.
Another game, another blown call (Arizona/Dallas)

We are idiots gambling on these games.
Dallas head coach Mike McCarthy mismanaged his second-half timeouts.
With no timeouts outside the two-minute warning, Dallas could not challenge the controversial call on the field of the runner being ruled down.
From the replays I watched, it appeared Arizona running back Chase Edmonds fumbled the ball BEFORE he should have been ruled down.
Dallas grabbed a clear fumble recovery but all for naught.
Three snaps later, game's over.
Final score: Arizona 25 Dallas 22.

I don’t know why teams don’t use more of their time outs in the 1st half? Then in the second half they call a timeout on 3rd & 8 with the play clock running out. I would rather have all 3 time outs in the second half available especially in a close game. Let me see, 5 yard penalty or keep a valuable time out….

Do These Referees Have Any Friends That Gamble ?
God No !
That Could Never Be Possible.

Exactly.
First-half timeouts are underused and second-half timeouts are overused.

The opening odds start here
I tend to see teams utilize the full allowance of their timeouts especially in a 2:00 drill or the team that tends to have the ball last before halftime. For me it's the quality of the utilization, although there are certain teams who are content where they stand if and how many points they are up when they go to waste. So if they're utilizing early in the first half, it's not so glaring considering if you're in a good position heading into the locker room and mattering more In the 2nd half.
Teams made halftime adjustments 30 years ago in the NFL.
Today, the smart teams are making critical adjustments after every play.

Back in the day, Marty Schottenheimer would cut Clowney at halftime.
Inexcusable move by a player who should know better.

Rail, Baker has not done shit in his time in Cleveland. He has a great running game which should open things up in the passing game. He makes terrible decisions….

They're 7-9 and this is a talented team - baker has had 4 seasons and is not improving - he's getting worse. He's not a good passer, he cant run, and he hasn't shown the ability to make things happen.
If anything you expect something bad to happen when he's in the position to have a game winning/tying drive.

So do u feel McCarthy should be replaced this off season, after making the playoffs ? Does Jerry Jones still have the baLLs to do it ?

never should have hired him to begin with - the packers are way better without mccarthy.

Always over rated, rodgers was at his peak with great receivers and they made the super bowl - it was never about mccarthy.
