Holy shit. Did you watch that GIF? There were two guys open!!!!! One could have probably gotten like 5-7 yards, and the other most definitely could have least gotten 20 yards. That was a terrible play by Sanchez. Nobody to blame but Sanchez. It was 2nd and 8. Had Sanchez made a throw to one of those two WIDE OPEN guys, we either go to 3rd and manageable or have a whole new set of downs. It makes field goal tries easier, and it keeps New England's offense off the field. As for the safety, he made an obvious decision that most quarterbacks would make in that situation. Whoopie-dee-fucking-doo. Your love for Sanchez is disturbing and you really need to open your eyes that this guy fucking sucks.
I agree, he had other options and should have taken one of them. The INT is being dissected and know nothings like you insist Hill was wide open. Let's assume he dumps it off, we get a 1st down, work some clock and kick a FG. We still leave NE time and they likely score. why is this so difficult to comprehend? one second you are bashing him for the safety and now "he made an obvious decision that most quarterbacks would make in that situation. Whoopie-dee-fucking-doo." Interesting. One thing in life I have learned. In general the more one curses and uses exclamation points the less intelligent that person is. if we got the first down, do you think from 20-30 yds away we were going to milk 7 mins off the clock and not allow NE to get the ball back?
So, by your logic, interest by other teams is the measure of a players worth. Revis was under contract for 2 million less than Sanchez, and 31 teams wanted no part of him...man that guy must really suck.
lol @ dumb-dumb and his crystal ball asserting that NE would score. I forgot only junc is allowed to speculate entire drives while the rest of us can't speculate the result of a wide open dumpoff extending a drive. The game ended up going to OT so anybody with an ounce of football IQ understands that more points is a good thing. Not to mention points on the board puts more pressure on an opponent than a "good punt" on 2nd down. Momentum is a real thing. Or maybe only when it works for the argument...
Let's say you have $1,000 to gamble w/. which would you place more money on: NYJ scoring a TD when they have a 3rd and 8 from the NE 36 OR NE scoring when they have the ball at their 20? are you saying you'd bet on our offense led by that crappy QB over the best QB in the game? Ohhhhh so if we score in that situation that means the rest of the game plays out EXACTLY the same? let's say it does until the end, we would be up 6 and NE would have the ball. you think they still settle for a late FG or try to score a TD? are you betting against that offense? Read your posts back to yourself and see how foolish they sound.
It is not logical at all. It is 34% chance on 3rd and 8. We are talking about a play that happened on 2nd and 8. Not even 3rd down yet. As many others have already pointed out, he had two wide open check downs. One is an easy first down with probably an additional 15 yards after that since he was so wide open. If he makes the right decision and makes the easy throw, the assumption of a long FG goes out the window. We are then talking about the possibility of scoring a TD. We are talking about what NE did in that game which leads you to assume that they score on us after your assumption that we attempt and miss a long FG. We stopped them 4 out of 5 times in the first half including after we turned it over. It is logical to assume that we could make another stop if we had scored. Instead of making a bunch of illogical assumptions like we can't get a first down and NE would have scored, use logic and look at the wide open Greene who gets us a first down and look at what the defense did the whole first half. No, you would rather try and defend Mark's terrible decision and compare it to a good punt. :lol:
roflmao man this is too easy. Why would it be 3rd and 8 from the 36? He had 2 wide open checkdowns. Hit either one of those(throws an average QB easily makes) and we aren't talking about 3rd and 8. I would definitely say you guys had a great chance of scoring before that dumbass pick, and a good chance you can apply more pressure. And exponentially increase your odds in a game that ended up going to OT. Why do you assume a throwaway is the only alternative to a bonehead decision? Only dumb-dumb would keep pointing to 3rd and 8 as if that is the likely scenario.
Apparently it is childish to call people accurate names, but it isn't childish to act like a little kid and just stubbornly defend something which he obviously overreached in his defense of Sanchez and refuses to back off now. But please, continue to tell us all how the boogieman is the one who left your room a mess.
he's right guys. one is directly insulting the other persons intelligence. the other is passive-aggresivly insulting their level of understanding and is overtly condescending. big difference.
can we assume we'd see 3rd and 8 w/ an incomplete pass instead of the INT? You feel comfortable w/ 34%? you think it's an easy situation? He didn't make the right decision, we can play the what if game all day. he made a terrible decision that resulted in a TO that really didn't hurt us. he brought us back from double digits down on the road in the 4th qtr and you are focusing on what if's in the 2nd qtr. Even IF we kick a FG NE has a boatload of time to score. the open Green was something you just mentioned, earlier it was said how open Hill was and how bad of a job it was by mark to miss such an open WR down the field. Now we are arguing something completely different, I agree on this point. where have our schools failed us? why do so many struggle w/ basic reading comprehension? we were talking about the throw to Hill forever, now the argument is changing to the checkdown option. That is a completely different argument and even if he hits him are we then guaranteed to score a TD? You guys are simply amazing, the man brings us back from 10 pts down in the 4th qtr on the road, gives us a LEAD(which, as usual, our D blows) and you are focusing on a bad play from midway through the 2nd qtr.
lolz please try to keep up. It is the same argument. Don't try to deflect because you are looking foolish. Only a moron would assume an incompletion instead of a pick.
My bad, should I track down one of the other 18 interceptions from last year? I wish I could remember all of the interceptions, but they all look pretty funny if you havent noticed.
it's not the same, I agree w/ the bad decision. I have always agreed w/ that but folks like you tell us Hill was wide open which isn't the case. we have a bunch of morons on here so who knows who you could be talking about? The most moronic are the ones that want a new HC and QB every 2-3 years. the ones that think we qould havew taken 7 mins from our 36 yd line and not given NE a chance to score before the end of the half. The ones that think b/c we "stopped" NE a couple of possessions in a row it means we would have stopped them again. Those must be the morons you are talking about.
