re: Smoot Lays the Smack Down (Cowboys at Redskins)

Shanny for calling that timeout right as they were about to get a delay of game penalty when going for the FG in overtime. And extra 5 yards and I don't think that kick makes it.

I know he was trying to ice the kicker, but there was almost no time on the playclock and Romo was out of position because he was trying to call timeout even though they didn't have any left. Just a complete bonehead move in my opinion and I'd love to hear him try to explain it, except I'm not going to waste my time watching his presser.

I'm not sure Shanahan could see from where he was standing necessarily that Romo was about to do a Chris Webber. All that stuff is premeditated anyway. "Hey ref, watch me and wait until there's one second left then I'm going to call time out" In that scenario, Shanahan isn't really paying attention to the field. More so the clock.

On that kick though, quite a few people in the stadium (Redskins fans and otherwise) think he may have actually missed. I'd have to see the replay

at first look I thought so too, but I think the replay was pretty clear he made it

If D Hall never plays another down for us, I'll be happy. He sucks.

3rd down defense for it's constant failures to get off the field.

Yeah i saw that romo was trying to call a time out when they had none, i dont understand shanahan's reasoning for calling the TO. would that have been a 15yrd penalty? if not a 5 yd cuz the play clock might have run out or even if they got it off, might have made the kicker push it by rushing the kick..
