Andy Reid got depantsed in the Super Bowl by Bruce Arians.
Bruce Fucking Arians and Tom Fucking Brady.
Well, you see, Andy Reid is an offensive genius, and how dare we question Andy Reid's genius in not running the ball and not utilizing the screen pass in the face of an epically brutal pass rush, a patchwork offensive line and a QB with a hurt toe?
How dare we question his geniusness?

Throwing short passes up the middle in the last minute was vintage Reid wtf playcalling.
Maybe because you can't throw it to the sideline where all the defenders are? [Reply]
I mean I guess you could play for a long time consuming drive there and try not to give the ball back, but first and foremost when you're behind you've gotta score. Can't really think about that [Reply]

Totally disagree. When you have a high powered offense running up and down the field all night a TD is probable and a FG guaranteed at that point. It was all about the clock with them having zero timeouts and only a three point lead.
It's not IF we were going to score, but WHEN. [Reply]

But they hadn't been in the 2nd half. The d had been keeping them fairly in check if not for the turnovers. [Reply]

Is there a single fanbase out there that thinks, "Man, my coach has great clock management?"
Maybe the Pats, but I think that's more Brady than it is the coaching staff. Belichick doesn't call plays. Does he even have an earpiece in Brady's helmet?
I'm pretty sure everyone else is going to say, "God, our head coach is terrible at clock management!"
Close losses happen in the NFL. Every coach has a bad loss or two or more. Reid has coached a long time. He's accumulated many close losses.
I'm not giving him an excuse whatsoever. I'm just saying that if people are still hoping Andy Reid leaves/retires soon, I don't think they're exactly going to be delighted with the clock management skills of the replacement, either. [Reply]
