Time Mismanagement...Coaches or Simms?

[Bleed-Orange]

On the last possession we were leading with 5 min left in the game. Why were we snapping the ball with time left and not trying to eat clock? Simms or coaches?

 

[zjcvols]

Coaches. They have to tell Simms "Hey, we need to chew some clock up, so let's not snap the ball early, let's wait and let the clock run some."

Was that the same drive with 2nd and 2 and we pass?

Coaches, and coaches fault on the substitution obviously. Why were we trying to substitute!!!!? Almost comical

We did so many things wrong in this game. Sadly, we still should have won it.

IMO that drive cost us the game. If we cant get 2 yards in basically 3 plays then we need to man up. That pass should have been intercepted and this all could be basically a mute point

We substituted to get the right personnel on the field to account for their substitution. Les shouldn't have done it himself. We reacted.

Anyone else in a major fight with their wife due to their reaction? I could run through a brick wall right now.

good lord..we took almost 5 minutes off the clock...nothing wrong with the drive except how it finished.

Wrong.

If we were going to go for it on 4th down anyways, it would have benefitted our case tremendously to run the ball 3 times to get 2 yards and take another full minute + off the clock. Especially since they only had 1 timeout. So yes, there was something worng with the last drive.

Twice

I said it last week and got bashed, but I disagree with the oc play calling. Up 4 with the ball across mid field, 2nd and 2, Im calling a run 100%.

1st and goal, ball on the 3(not for sure where it really was) Im calling a run.
