4th and half yard from our 30.

Did you guys want us to punt? I was screaming for a punt. This is just my thought on it: Tomlin knew we were the better team and felt we would have held then to a FG if we didn't make it.

The NFL Network has the 2 hour mini version of game on this morning. Fun watching when you know you won.

 

I love when Tomlin is aggressive even when it don't always work...It mean he play to win!

Too often he is too conservative but yesterday it was not the case...he need to continue!

 

I wanted to go for it. Don’t think the offense is good enough to keep punting it away, nor is the D strong enough to ask them to continue to go out and stop the other team. Need to take some chances with this team

 

Tomlin obviously saw something on the tapes.I like it, boost the confidence of that squad

 

This is becoming trendy in the NFL (going for it deep on your side of the field).

I have mixed feelings because it looks great when we convert, but if you don’t, it is an instant field goal for the other team (maybe even a TD).

I think I read somewhere that something like 1/3 of games are decided by 7 points or less. In a tight game, an early decision like that, one that doesn’t work, could be a deciding factor in who ultimately wins.

 

I liked the call in that moment. Think they needed the boost.

Also wonder if the boo birds from last home game was in the back of his mind at all?

 

If we had punted, 1/2 the board would have come out with "Tomlin living in his fears". If we didn't make it, the same half of the board would have been criticizing him for being stupid, for not understanding situational football, and only an idiot goes for it at their own 29 that early in the game.

 

I was wanting him to go for that the whole time. It was more like 2 feet and if they can’t get it then they deserve to lose. I think Rogers wants to go for 4th and anything every time.

 

It does seem that way. And from watching Sunday football I noticed going for it on 4th seems to be happening more around the league. Rams had some balls Sunday.

 

You mean some HCs play to lose???
Those should never be hired.
Although, I have never seen one.

 

look no further than the Bears game. We went for it in field goal range, and didn't get it. We lost by 3.
You pay a punter, and kicker for a reason.
Many of these people grew up on Madden.
