Down 8 with a minute left, there's still a chance.... Justifying taking a sack and then throwing a horrendous pick by saying it doesn't matter, is absurd...
The Bears won yesterday with a game winning TD drive under similar circumstances. They had no time outs and less than 2 minutes to go. In fact they had it worse, they had to start the drive on their own 3. So I know it's possible. It's just that with Chad it always feels like it's over. You find yourself waiting for that big interception rather than that big play.
I just saw a replay of that on ESPN and when you see the replay it looks like it may have been a broken play. Coles turned upfield and Pennington threw it to where he would be if he turned back. Either that or he is worse then we even thought and I don't think that's the case.
I generally am, and I always stand by what I say. Thats why the sig remains. If you cared to read the board, you'd see I've been advocating the end pf Penningtons run as well...
after that sack where the great bengal D rushed 3 guys and Chad didn't have enough time to set up the game was over.
