It appears you like to argue just for the sake of arguing. You cannot give a simple yes, no answer when asked for one.

I will try again:
The coaches and players had enough confidence in Norwood to set the goal of the drive to be the 30yd line. Norwood also had the confidence, since a coach would ask a kicker, prior to a drive, the range of his "comfort level". The Bills offense, for that drive, did what they were asked to do. The coach and the team gave the Bills a chance to win. Norwood did not. He blew the kick, yes or no?

Of course he blew the kick -- Thurman Thomas sure didn't miss it, did he?

Go back to one of your earlier posts and look at what Jim Kelly said: "I had to run the ball a couple times and I didn't want to . . ."

Why do you think he didn't want to run the ball? I'll tell you why -- because he didn't want to let their hopes ride on the ability of Scott Norwood to kick a 47-yard field goal as time expired.

Let me ask you a direct question: If you were coaching the Bills, would you have called the last two minutes of that game the same way Levy did?
