  1. That was just as idiotic and for the record I was against going for it as soon as they started lining up for the play
  2. i wasn't going to bother the first time you said it, but since this makes twice... who is to say any of that would've played out the same had he kicked, especially since not kicking resulted in them getting the ball where they did? it probably wouldn't have. going for the TD was fine. Yes yes butterfly effect. That comment was mostly emotional reaction but I definitely don't think going for a TD was fine there. If it was a 7 point game fine, if they were 1-2 yards out fine. But it was an 8 point game and 4 yards out. If they kick a FG the following happens: -An opponent FG keeps it a 1 possession game -if you stop them you can win with a TD but if you fail to convert, you are left with needing a TD and 2 pointer and any opponent score ends the game. The Bears were in a spot on the field where it's probably too far to run it, so you are looking to score against the best secondary in the NFL. I'd like to see the probability chart or whatever it is for sure because I'm obviously not certain if I'm right, it just strongly makes logical sense to me. Because Fox gave up the 3 points he put himself in a situation where he had one shot at gaining 2 yards for a tie game and they didn't get it.
  3. That SEC commenter dude that goes on ESPN said that Bama should be #1 over Clemson because they destroyed their cupcake FCS team when their other conference breathen struggled and/or lost to theirs
  4. Funny that the Bears could easily be 7-3 or almost just as easily 1-9
  5. Congrats Fox, your dumb decision cost you the win against the team that dumped your ass last year
  6. We win. Oh wait Fox didn't kick that FG
  7. What do you mean? 1 TO with 2:12 left (essentially 2 TOs left bc of the 2 min warning) or 2 TOs with 2:00 left
  8. What in the hell Only sulleys teams
  9. Now I feel bad for making fun of Osweiller
  10. Ok Jay lets do this against your old team
  11. Officials are just never going to call holding are they
  12. Still need a TD and 2 point conversion and a FG probably ends it. Dammit
  13. Wtf now is when you decide to go for it? Not a fan. Terrible play call too jesus You don't [expletive] go for it when your down by 8 with 4 yards to go
  14. Well that sucks. Tons of 3rd and long conversions allowed today
  15. They are just killing us on short passes with lots of YAC
  16. Nice job other BMarsh
  17. See this is why I never go for it on 4th! - John Fox
  18. I guess my jinxes work both ways... Not a bad decision just a terrible throw
  19. About what I expected against the number 1 D in the NFL without our top 2 WRs and starting RB in less than ideal offensive conditions. Cutler is actually having a pretty good game IMO
  20. Why these coaches are all too chickenshit to go for it on 4th and less than a yard on the opponents side of the field?
  21. Wtf is O'Donnell doing out there today?
  22. Can't figure out if this or targeting in college is the more ridiculously interpreted rule
  23. Painful drive but held them to 3 so I'll take it
  24. Ugh Broncos driving for a score and get the ball first to start the 3rd
  25. Why does this bother you so much? I hate ND as much as the next guy but if they want to have home games in other locations and they can fill a stadium then good for them. besides having a home game in the same city as your opponent is located may or may not put them at a competitive disadvantage. Certainly doesn't give them a strong home field
