Re: Official Bears/Saints "In game" thread...
BD, amazing how hard it must be to simply pick up a football on a play like that....we see it every week.....weird bounces. oblong ball, all adds up i guess, to the fact that its very hard to simply pick it up...but they always see that endzone ahead, and know IF THEY CAN pick it up, they will probably score....But like u said, if u just fall on it, you are set up great...

Re: Official Bears/Saints "In game" thread...
Because there were 3 bears there and the Saints were about 5 yards back, when he tried to pick it up, after the first Saint missed it....but actually i wasnt referring to that play as much as the "fumble" in general, cuz you have the whole team going the other way, then if a guy picks it up, he is headed the other way..
You just have the momentum going in that direction, and most of the other players are trying to catch up from the play downfield.....thats all
I dont know if he would have or not..

Re: Official Bears/Saints "In game" thread...
I took a lot of crap for saying Reid was ok going for the punt last week, but I really have to say that was some of the most horrendous coaching I've seen. Two passes with an unsettled QB? I mean he should have hit the first one, but still just run it ahead and get the TD. Even worse, why go for it on 4th and 1 from the 4, but not from the 1? I just don't get it at all.

Re: Official Bears/Saints "In game" thread...
if you took up for that punt....
:+clueless
that should be about enough to get a coach fired. there was NOTHING that was good about that call. lets see
the possession before the saints ran right down the eagles throat EASILY
the eagles were living on a break; the bush fumble
the eagles averaged more yards per play than any team in the NFL.
You HAVE to hold them to a 3 and out regardless.
You have to take control of your own destiny.
you only have Two timeouts.
there was nothing about that call that was correct. one of the worst calls in the hostory of this league.

live betting new orl ml is a great play. the saints are killing themselves, not the other way around. saints will score plenty.

Re: Official Bears/Saints "In game" thread...
Yeah I heard enough about it. But I did look it up and I found 4th and 15 has been 7% successful. Everyone acted like it was 50/50 or better they would make it. Even if the Birds hadn't stopped the Saints all night, I have to think facing 3 sure rushing plays they had at least a 10% chance of stopping them. Sorry but I have to say it wasn't a bad call. Not that it was a good call, I just felt it was a call you could make either way and certainly not something to be fired over.

I don't know about that, don't get excited about a team playing on the road having big problems protecting the QB. The road angle is important when a team falls behind because it just gets progressively tougher to win if they don't regain a lead.

Re: Official Bears/Saints "In game" thread...
WildBill, this is why I think it was a bad call. A couple years ago Reid went for it on 4th and 23 and it got him to the SB. It worked for him then, he should have gone for it last week.
I understand that its lame reasoning, but its all I got. I disagree with Mo tho, no way is that a fireable offense

Re: Official Bears/Saints "In game" thread...
i didnt read the 'crap' you took. not many here know jack shit so who knows what was said. 4th and 15 is 7% successful, that is one of the most ridiculous stats ive ever heard anyone mention. is this in the history of the NFL? what are the eagles % on it? i hate to break it to you, but no one elses stats going for it on 4th and 15 have Anything to do with the eagles. how far back to we have to go to remember the 4th and 22 in the Playoffs in an Eagles game vs green bay? huh? One team led the NFL in yards per play, that one team was the eagles. i also wonder if your stats include penalties. there are plenty that are automatic first downs and a few that put u in a better position to pick up the yards needed. how about if you look up the stats on how successful teams are on the road, with less than 2 minutes left, going vs a team they cannot stop, with only 2 timeouts and punting.
:+clueless
so what could they gain by punting? where were they already. the 35? how many yards did they stand to gain by punting even if they did hold, which was not likely? not many, pal. so, much less time, no timeouts, and not much better field position and chances are you cannot stop the other team anyway.
yeah, you're wrong.
someone on here mentioned that you know sports well, i'll have to reserve judgement on that.
