YOOOOOO Posted September 26, 2005 Posted September 26, 2005 1-10-ATL24 (14:54) W.Dunn right guard pushed ob at ATL 44 for 20 yards (T.McGee). 1-10-ATL44 (14:28) M.Vick pass intended for A.Crumpler INTERCEPTED by C.Kelsay at BUF 48.

Pitch left. Jonathan "!@#$ing" Smith.....my question is WHY???? We come up with a big INT...we need 6 in the worst way...we take the lead and the momentum with 6 over 3.... You have a 3rd and 4 at the 13....put the ball in the hands of one of your playmakers...Mcgahee, Evans or Moulds, maybe even a designed run with Losman.... NOPE!!!!!! Lets pitch it out to !@#$ing Jonathan Smith..... Tom Clements...what were you thinking...???
Alaska Darin Posted September 26, 2005 Posted September 26, 2005 I wouldn't have had as much of a problem with it if it were a formation we'd actually done something else out of. If I can figure out the play from my couch, I seriously doubt the opposing team is going to have a problem with it.

Tom Clements...what were you thinking...??? 455191[/snapback] I was thinking the same thing...however I would have liked to have seen Shaud Williams on that play. With his speed he could have turned the corner and made the first down yardage. It was a GREAT playcall but the personnel choice was terrible. Shaud Williams makes the play - honestly I do not even think WM makes the play.
Gavin in Va Beach Posted September 26, 2005 Posted September 26, 2005 I admit, I was pretty !@#$in' bewildered (bewildered, now that's a damn fine word, doesn't get nearly the respect it deserves. Comes in very handy when watching the Bills) about that play call. In fact I was pretty !@#$in' bewildered at A LOT of the playcalling yesterday. Willis should have run for over 200 yds yesterday, but it seemed like the coaches were trying to prove to everyone that Losman could win the game with his arm...
nick in* england Posted September 26, 2005 Posted September 26, 2005 If Freddie makes the right cut that coulsa been a score...
stuckincincy Posted September 26, 2005 Posted September 26, 2005 Goofy yes, but many have been clamoring for MM's trademark "trick" plays, plus the incassant off-season drumbeat for a "slash" player. Those that pointed out that a "slash player" is a fundamentally weak thing to need were somewhat dismissed by others. See also the Blitz!BlitzBlitz!!! crowd...
Mikie2times Posted September 26, 2005 Posted September 26, 2005 In TC defense JS had the first down easy had he not slipped. Plenty of guys slipped yesterday including JP on the critical 4th and inches, and Willis as he broke his longest run of the day. That said Lee Evans would have probably been a better candidate to execute that play, but he certainly would have drawed more attention.
YOOOOOO Posted September 26, 2005 Author Posted September 26, 2005 If that was done in the 1st or 2nd quarter...i could accept it.... That drive yesterday we needed 6 in the worst way...im a believer when you need something...you put the ball in the hands of your best player, not a dude off the bench, that sees the field 4/5 times a week...

Which one is it? In TC defense JS had the first down easy had he not slipped. Plenty of guys slipped yesterday including JP on the critical 4th and inches, and Willis as he broke his longest run of the day. That said Lee Evans would have probably been a better candidate to execute that play, but he certainly would have drawed more attention. 455210[/snapback] Good point tying the three slips together, but why weren't the Falcons slipping, particularly Vick on that 27-yard-run?
ganesh Posted September 26, 2005 Posted September 26, 2005 We come up with a big INT...we need 6 in the worst way...we take the lead and the momentum with 6 over 3.... Tom Clements...what were you thinking...??? 455191[/snapback] The other one was the Ds doing...You had them pinned at the 11yard line with 1 minute to go to half time...and then you let Warrick Dunn run off 59 yards....That took the air out of the defense.....

Actually, thats the one play I could excuse. The 59 yd run was on the very next play after TKO got hurt. I'll give a pass on that one. The other 350+ yards however....

Alaska Darin Posted September 26, 2005 Posted September 26, 2005 I see, now its MY team!! 455548[/snapback] Way to miss the point. If the players think the way YOU do, they're already beaten.
Fezmid Posted September 26, 2005 Posted September 26, 2005 Way to miss the point. If the players think the way YOU do, they're already beaten. 455567[/snapback] But we don't know if they think the way we do or not. We're just fans, and the way we think has no bearing on the game at all... CW
