maddog Posted September 27, 2004 Share Posted September 27, 2004 Did anyone see the end of the New Orleans/St. Louis game in regulation. New Orleans had 4th and 5 and the St. Louis 33, up by five with just under two minutes left. It was almost the exact situation the Bills faced against the Jags in week 1. Haslett decided to kick the FG with Carney, who had made two 50+ field goals earlier in the game. Carney missed and St. Louis went on to score what looked like would be a GW touchdown. The color commentator was second guessing Haslett because it was such a big momentum switch - St. Louis had new life and it picked them up. Plus, they had great field position. Just goes to show that as a coach, you're going to get second guessed no matter whether the decision was sound or not. Fortunately for NO, they ended up winning in OT.
