    we were down 10 and about to score and I think Brown caught a pass inside the 5 I believe??? And was just jogging back. Took their sweet time, scored with 1 second left and then didn’t do an onside down 3.


    WTF?!?!?

    That’s like saying oh well better luck next game....

    I think you kick it away, with having two time outs and a two minute warning is a no brainier.

    NFL onside kick success rate is 26%, and that's including ones where teams didn't expect one coming.

    I bet it's about 10% success rate when teams actually expect you to do it.

    I understand the defense wasn't stopping a wet paper bag. But, you chances with them pulling a 3 and out are better than the onside kick.

    Yea this. Looks like there was no urgency at all. Then with 1 second left at kickoff they didn’t try an onside. Talk about giving up lol

    speaking of which, Boz really needs to work on his on-side technique.
