I agree with Matty. Positive end to Ramsey's night--given the ups and downs, why risk not converting? Plus, you get some specials practice, I suppose.
I thought it was a nice drive, btw.
Wonder why we didn't see any Cooley action. Maybe Gibbs said, hey, we know you can throw to Chris--spread it around and get that same vibe with the rest of your receivers.

Yep...we need to work on what we aren't doing well and last year, going to receivers deep was not a thing we done well.

Personally I don't buy the confidence argument. You're telling your QB you don't trust them to make clutch plays and that they can't do it. In a game, it was the right decesion without a doubt, but we're SO bad in the redzone I think it was worth it to just air it out!

I was thinking the same thing when I saw it, unless Gibbs want's to work on the field goal unit we should have gone for it, it's good experience, I know Gibbs doesn't like to show much but I say go for it.
I understand the confidence point of view, but IMO Ramsey may be better served at this point to leave on a bad note, some sleepless nights and that bad feeling in your gut may be just what he needs to get him going the next time out, I know if I fail at something my last time out I am far more focused and motivated the next time around, failure can be a bigger motivator than succees, sink or swim I alway's say, if Ramsey can't rebound after a bad game, or a bad pass, then we have a problem, personally I would have yanked him after the second INT and let him think about it all week, then see how he responds, cotalling can breed complacincy.
I know I probably butchered those 2 words as well. :biggthump
