stuckincincy Posted September 28, 2004 Posted September 28, 2004 During last night's Was-Dal game, the announcers stated that Bill Parcell - coached teams were 84 and 1 (now 85-1) when they entered the 4th quarter leading by at least 10 points. His clock management at the end of the game was masterful. And he did NOT play the hated prevent defense. If we all had a buck for each time we've seen p-poor clock management by "pro" staffs, we'd be rolling in it...what is so %$6*@1& hard about telling time?
Paco Posted September 28, 2004 Posted September 28, 2004 It's not just about telling time. It's about being able to pound the ball at the end to KILL the time. In fact, that very truth is one of the reasons he almost LOST the game last night; between Eddie George and that OL, it took him a couple of times to end that game...and Brunell came dangerously close to tieing it up. Granted, Gibbs did a TERRIBLE time with the clock last night. Just terrible. And I suspect GW screwed him at one point.
ACor58 Posted September 28, 2004 Posted September 28, 2004 I think it also speaks volumes about how well prepared and mentally tough all of his teams are.
Cugalabanza Posted September 28, 2004 Posted September 28, 2004 mmmmmmm... 10 point lead in the 4th... (drool)
stuckincincy Posted September 28, 2004 Author Posted September 28, 2004 Yep. He's the best in the league.
_BiB_ Posted September 28, 2004 Posted September 28, 2004 mmmmmmm... 10 point lead in the 4th... (drool) 47915[/snapback] Yeah. Same thought, only our guys would find a way to blow it.
Pete Posted September 28, 2004 Posted September 28, 2004 mmmmmmm... 10 point lead in the 4th... (drool) mmmm 10 points in a game..... (drool)
Alaska Darin Posted September 28, 2004 Posted September 28, 2004 I wonder what having a 10 point fourth quarter lead is like? (Can't you just hear "Glory Days" playing in the background?)
