So, in that way, why not just play for OT and hope you get the ball first, because you're probably fucked no matter what you do.
38 seconds left and I'm not sure Lamar could do it. He might have but I wouldn't say it's a given. [Reply]

Meh, I don't mind the decision. Hell, CIN's defense gave up 4 TDs in a row, three in the 4th quarter alone. They were done. Try to get the lead, and with only :38 seconds, the playbook shrinks for BAL and Lamar. And maybe Tucker doesn't kick it through, again. [Reply]

Yeah, I don't think it was complete incompetence or anything and most of that's just hindsight of not making it... the Bucs' choice was far clearer and they were fucking morons, but in this case it could go either way. [Reply]

But he DOES have more Super Bowl rings than Walter Payton, Barry Sanders, Adrian Peterson, LaDainian Tomlinson, and Derrick Henry combined lmao [Reply]

Andy would have played for OT against Balt. He may have gone for 2 against the Bengals. Cincy's offense is more lethal. Hell, neither team played a fucking lick of defense tonight. [Reply]
