but no counters, pitches, sweeps, etc. definitely would not have thrown the ball.

LOL!!!

Here's hoping the Eagle's coach is as limited in his choices if he ever gets in that situation against the Patriots! You're quite the card, L4B!

Hey, evad, this kid would not throw the ball from the three yard line on first, second, or third down! Maybe we're talking with Marty Schottenheimer!

Ugh..
I'm still smarting from that one ;-(

Yeah, and yet he knows it's automatic that they could have scored a 2 point conversion WHEN THEY NEEDED IT.

L4B is a joke and it has been fun but all the spinning and obfuscation is starting to make me dizzy :)

not with a pro-bowl offensive line, two of the best downhill runners in football, and a shellshocked rookie quarterback I wouldn't. ESPECIALLY when you've already been forced to run less than you'd like to because of the score and clock.

but I forgot - this is an FR sports thread, where context means nothing.

maybe from the 9, things are different. or if you take an illegal motion penalty, etc. I certainly wouldn't want the task of stopping Bettis on three tries. I guess that makes me an idiot.
