row_33 Posted September 22, 2019 Posted September 22, 2019 Abner Haynes for the OT of an AFL title game gave up both the kick and the wind on winning the toss. still won ”we’ll kick to the clock”.... ———— it was so much easier without the deferral, the coin toss winner received every time

MAJBobby Posted September 22, 2019 Posted September 22, 2019 We were against the wind in 1st and 3rd QTRs 1
JMF2006 Posted September 22, 2019 Posted September 22, 2019 Quarters 1-3 are timed differently and therefore shorter. 2-4 are much longer quarters due to stop time on out of bounds plays during the last 5 minutes plus that's when most teams use TO's and 2 minute offence. 1 1 1
Mojo44 Posted September 22, 2019 Posted September 22, 2019 Interesting point. Therefore, if things work out, your offense gets more plays. 19 minutes ago, JMF2006 said: Quarters 1-3 are timed differently and therefore shorter. 2-4 are much longer quarters due to stop time on out of bounds plays during the last 5 minutes plus that's when most teams use TO's and 2 minute offence. I meant to quote this post with my post. For some reason it didn’t register. Anyway, interesting point
Kelly the Dog Posted September 22, 2019 Posted September 22, 2019 If you win the toss you get one of five choices. Defer, Kick, take the ball, defend one end or defend the other. Then the next team gets to choose. If they choose to defer we have to choose to take the ball. If we take the wind, they can defer and get the ball in the first half.
Call_Of_Ktulu Posted September 22, 2019 Posted September 22, 2019 We never win the coin toss so we can never differ. Hopefully we can win one next week vs the Pats because we never do.

I was standing outside in line because gate 7 was a half 35-minute wait, but I assume we won the toss, took the ball, and the bengals took the ball to start the second half ...

I think they deferred so we took the ball but not absolutely sure.
Call_Of_Ktulu Posted September 22, 2019 Posted September 22, 2019 I'm not a big fan of the coin toss at the start of the game, home team should get to choose. If the game goes into OT then flip a coin.

So we chose to go against the wind giving the wind in the 2nd and 4th We would have had to take the ball on our choice. If we chose to go against the wind in the 2nd they would have received the ball on kickoff in both halves.

Kelly the Dog Posted September 23, 2019 Posted September 23, 2019 Yup. Would seem that way. If you win the toss you can choose to take the ball, kick, defend either goal or defer. But if you defer, the other team gets to take the ball, kick or defend either goal. If they don't take the ball then it's your choice again and you would take it.

If we chose to go against the wind in the 2nd they would have received the ball on kickoff in both halves. Is this really possible? I always thought coin tosses were just "we want you to have the ball" or "we want the ball", the only responses to which are "okay we'll go that way" Edited September 23, 2019 by arcane
