Last second field goals fell my way for once.

When will NFL coaches learn these two things?

1. The “prevent defense” never works. It only serves to give the opposing team easy 12-15 yard gains on every play. Even the worst quarterback can complete a pass against a three man rush.

2. The refs always make picky calls against the leading team in the fourth quarter and turn a blind eye to infractions of the team trying to catch up. Just throw a pass a little short and tell your receiver to stop and let the defender run over him. Instant pass interference call!

You are very right on both points!
