They really don't. It's sad to watch a game with them as the announcers. I remember Jerald Sewell like it was yesterday.
The risk is not worth the reward. Accept penalty results in either: Fumble (no pts) INT (no pts) Turnover on downs (no pts) Missed FG (no pts) FG (3 pts - same as taking guaranteed 3) TD (6-7 pts) Decline: Guaranteed 3 With those odds, 1/6 chance of having something better than a 9-7 lead, WHY take the penalty?
ahh.. my fault. i read it wrong, thought you said another anemic day for the offensive line, referring to their horrendous run blocking.
no 1 We won't get the breaks they did no 2 even they realized that they needed explosive players this year because of the way the illegal contact rules are
"Tennessee is going to have to take care of the Titans first though before the Colts." I think one of the announcers said that, or something like it, a few minutes ago.
The way you win in the NFL is by blocking and tackling. The explosive plays come off of that. With better blocking, TJ & Leon would have been one of the better RB combos in the league this year. As it is, Jones is being fed to the wolves and Leon is not even worth running behind this shit line. That said I would not be opposed to McFadden. But anyone thinking he will cure all of our offensive woes is on something.
