Don't risk a pick or a sack that could cause a fumble or make a longer field goal than you have at the moment. Also, the skins could not run the clock to the 2 minute warning. When the play clock began running the was a 1 second differential bn it and the game clock so they had to run a play there. I don't think playing it safe and putting the game winning score on a 23-yard field goal is bad coaching. It's smart coaching. They ran the clock down as far as they could have and put themselves in a position to have a 10 point lead, giving the ball back to NO with no timeouts left...
I stopped reading after the bolded line. This coaching staff, this team needs to get a killer attitude. Yes maybe the run was not the end of the world, but right there, at that moment, you take the shot. throw it away, heck take a sack, but take the dang shot into the endzone! one play, one call(probably on lewis) but take it. I understand the logic of the run, but this team needs to get a spark, and settling for the safe route at 3-8, just doesn't cut it. Take the shot, make a play. Let the offense finish what they were doing, they had a good game, and deserved to take the shot to win it.
