Mcdermott OT punt vs Indy in snow. Poll!

  1. 1. Do you agree with that punt in OT?

    • Yes. We won the game. Mcdermott is a genius! He played the percentages.
      16
    • No. A tie did us nothing. Luckily D held them off and Deonte Thompson made a miracle catch from Webb. Im still not sure why he punted.
      40
    • We made the playoffs. Who cares?!

Any other day, I would say he made the wrong decision, but with a foot of snow on the field, I think there was as good a chance of our defense somehow scoring than the Colts scoring. 

 

I also think he punts on a sunny, 65 degree September afternoon, so...

I agree with everything McDermott has done. I'm 100% bought in. He played it safe because he inherited a junky offense. 

 

It's like saying why don't you risk that super risky jump on this bike that has to brakes.

That most of all. I loved it.

We cant sit here and act like Mcdermott was perfect. Tolbert was an awful choice to help McCoy. His ties to Carolina players worries me slightly. Is he overlooking other players?

I don't know if he did overlook guys. I do know that the guys he did have, he ran through training camp so hard they started fighting and complaining about being tired of hitting each other.

 

So I know at the very least he's getting the most from what he does have. I have to admire it.

This was the one time last year I thought McD made the wrong decision.  I even said “What is He doing? A tie does us no good! “ And then I was shown why he makes a few  million a year and I complain to a TV set on Sundays.

When it happened, I was furious.  When the game ended, I was happy.  Coach was right.  Couch coach was wrong

I hated the decision. I'm kind of over it now though. It didn't work out when rex did it against Miami, but it worked out here. Also just because you win the game, doesn't mean the coach was perfect with every call he made. This was a very dangerous call, in which the players managed to bail out McDermott. I worry this will not be the last time we see this mistake get made.

I thought it was awful in the heat of the moment.... I still don't agree with it. I get it..... but I don't agree with it. I think getting a yd on 4th down was much more reliable than hoping to pin a team deep, relying on a defense that had just got gashed at the end of regulation and then relying on joe webb to make some plays to get them down the field wherever the punt came in at.

 

but McDermott did more good than bad. so whatever.
