Rowand44 Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Oct 4, 2015 -> 03:08 PM) The rule of thumb is you can't overturn unless there's definitive evidence, and IMO, the "evidence" was indubitably not definitive.

Cutler shows flashes here and there but he'll make bonehead decisions once in a while. Sadly, this was one of his "shows flashes" drives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxfan99 Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 And that is why Raiders playing for a FG on prior drive was so dumb. Coaches really don't understand game strategy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Oct 4, 2015 -> 03:02 PM) Am I the only one who thinks the Cooper TD from the 1st half was incomplete? His first foot was down, but he didn't have control of the ball at the time- he bobbled! I watched the replay in slow-motion several times... How is there definitive evidence that he had possession as his foot hit the ground? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heck of a kick by Gould The third down play on their last drive was pathetic. The Bears were selling out on the run and that would have been a great chance to attack and go for the TD. With how good modern kickers are and how bad the Raiders' defense is playing for a FG and a 1 pt lead is laughably stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did face maybe the 3 best teams in the NFC to start the season. They are no playoff team, but they will win a few more with Jay healthy.

Dick Allen Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 John Fox had me perplexed today. Why down 2 do you not go for 2? And why with your kick coverage, do you call timeout with 7 seconds left which guarantees a kickoff if you get the lead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Judging from Twitter reactions the past month, these type of decisions seem to be the norm with him. In game decisions and agressive play calling are not his specialty it would appear.

I agree with your point. The Rams "won" the RG3 trade because of all the talented they drafted, yet they are the team with zero playoff appearances since, the Redskins at least got a home playoff game .

Yeah so take a QB who will have no RG or LT. His #1 will be an unproven rookie WR. His starting RB will be Jeremy Langford. His team won't have any inside LB's, CB's, rush LB's aside from McPhee, or a starting FS. It'll be great. The team will look a lot different than this year's Edited October 5, 2015 by soxfan49 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dasox24 Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Oct 4, 2015 -> 04:03 PM) John Fox had me perplexed today. Why down 2 do you not go for 2? And why with your kick coverage, do you call timeout with 7 seconds left which guarantees a kickoff if you get the lead? I'm just guessing here, but I believe it's because we kicked the Field Goal on a non-4th down play. If the kick had been blocked without passing the line of scrimmage, we'd get the ball back and potentially have time to kick another FG. 7 seconds could have run off during the kick and subsequent fight to recover the ball. But if we recovered with say 1 second left, it would be Bears ball still. And we could attempt another FG. On the flip side, if you make it, the only chance the other team has to win is to return the kick. And since you are squibbing it, that means they end up having to perform a series of laterals and running all over the field to score (like you saw today). The odds of them actually scoring are probably less than 0.1%. That's why you take your chances with the extra few seconds of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great throw by Carr and even better catch by Cooper. That dude is the real deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
