SO why didn't we kick the field goal?

At the time, I thought going for it was the right decision, b/c I figured our defense wasn't stopping them and at least it would keep them even more conservative on offense by keeping them deep in their own territory.

In hindsight, the way our defense finally decided to play after we turned it over, I would've kicked the FG. Woulda, Should, Coulda...

It was because our defense looked like $hit today and even John Fox knew it so you have to go for it...plain and simple. I agree one bad ass cat but lets not forget about our not so special teams.. a blocked punt and why the hell could rhys llloyd not get it into the endzone in a damn dome.. when the atlanta guy was doing it every kick!

    • Yeah they were bad QBs - but QB's that stayed on their teams for several years.  BY is better than all of those. 
    • This is the right move even if you think Bryce isn't the future. Everything except signing him to a long term deal until proven otherwise. There's a decent chance we have a shot to draft a QB next year that we like. 
    • If we're still bad enough that Canales gets fired, especially if it's during the season, there is no way we could ever attract any HC worthy of the job if we told them they had to keep Bryce their first year. That would be 2 coaches he's gotten fired and 4 years of not performing up to par. I still say replace both of them next offseason.  I like Canales the man and I think he's done an absolutely outstanding job at fixing our locker room issues, as it was really bad before he showed up.  But I just don't see it from him with his in game decision making, I think he's held us back just as much as Bryce has, just in different ways. Canales was our Dan Campbell, the coach you hire to turn the franchises culture around for the HC after them to inherit and take to the next level.   The difference was he had some elite coordinators early on and really let him focus on his "leader of men" role as opposed to the X's and O's that Canales does himself and it's turned out well for him.
