    How'd you feel about the flurry of short passes to get Hines his 1,000 catches?

    Because if you say ANYTHING critical about the man you obviously HATE the man!

    OK, so I'm looking at the play by play and now I see it. I listened to the game on Sirius while doing yard work (it wasn't televised here), and I was under the impression that the pass to AB put us in position to take a knee 3 times. Looking at the play by play, it was a first down call at the 2 minute mark, and he went of bounds to stop the clock. OK, I agree now - no need to call that play. Bad call.

    For some, absolutely.

    Still don't have a problem with it. Nothing bad happened, I'm not going to start living in "what ifs". I like the togetherness it signifies, these guys will fight harder for each other.

    Play to win and if stats happen they happen. As crappy of a game manager as most of us would agree that the coach is, he probably wanted a 1st not thinking about the kneel downs and not wanting a repeat of last week. High risk low risk no risk etc... Every plays a risk and had Troy hit it right, the low risk spike would've been a huge turnover. Nothing is a gimme anymore especially with this teams inconsistencies.

    :lolol: For the record, I had no problem with the dinks and dunks that got Hines his 1,000. I also had no problem with Tomlin (or Ben or whoever) keeping AB's streak alive. But really AB should have had 12 catches and 200 yards against that pitiful Jags' secondary.
