Going for it instead of leading by two scores in the 4th

I’m not being cute and I’ve seen a fair amount of football. Can someone walk me into the rationale of that

We have a big strong QB and can pick up a foot with ease ... Oh wait. Definitely should have kicked the fg to go up 10 with like 10 to play

I know he likes being aggressive, but that seemed to be a little too aggressive.

Not sure why were chasing points with the lead there.

Rico averaged 3.1 yards this game and Chuba averaged 3.6 we couldn't run on them in the first game and neither in this one. 

Field goal was the better play.

Like not even a in retrospect…. I saw it in real time and was like WTF

I'm fine with being aggressive, you can't get mad when it doesn't work and not recognize the positive when it has worked for us this year. 

I wish we would have kept being aggressive and gone forward on that last fourth down. Don't even give the saints a chance to get the ball back.

Wasn't it gonna be a near 60 yard attempt? I'm sure the analytics say to go for it on 4th and 1 in that scenario but the analytics probably wouldn't be accounting for the inability to run a QB sneak.

52? 

think you have to factor the Saints I think think lead the NFL in stuffed runs for negative yardage and we weren’t sneaking

I was remembering it being a little longer than that but that might be right. Fitz is 2/4 on 50+ for the season. 

I'm honestly not mad about the call. But we should have someone else practicing QB sneaks since little Bryce and geriatric Dalton can't do it. Let Rico or one of the TEs or XL or somebody do it. Somebody with the power to move the pile.

      Not sure who said it first, but Tepper is the correct answer. Still, I'm gonna go with Kasay keeping it inbounds. If, you subscribe to the butterfly effect version of time travel consequences.... When we win SBXXXVIII everybody's lives change: Moose never breaks his leg, We win it all again in 05. Tommy Jone is unknown and Peppers stays home, Champs once more 2008. No artificial pig heart turning JR into a creepy weirdo, no lockout, no Clausen. Fox and Jake ride off into the sunset on their own terms. No 2-14, no #1 pick. But, no laptop, no Blinn, 3 years behind The Golden Calf of Bristol, we still get Cam. JR let's him grow his locs like he always wanted, Smitty sees Cam in a new light. Dreads swinging, (and Smitty with his 3 Lombardis behind him) Cam is old enough to get those calls. No Manning narrative, Cotchery TD, PI against Talib on Philly Brown, 10,000 RTP calls and Kony Ealy SB50 MVP. No Jeans Fridays, no Tepper. KB doesn't slip on his own meatsweat mid-route in SD, Cam becomes the 1st QB to win 10 straight SBs. Retiring after being elected 47th president of the US of A, Cam ushers in the Permanent Proletarian Revolution across the globe, Xi Jinping bows in awe. "ẄøŘƙƐṛ§ őF ŧĤə ŵØRłð, ŮŊÏŦƐ!!!"

      I mean not surprised the Patriots took him in and aren't trying to push him out. They've been the most morally bankrupt team in the NFL for a long while. Wouldn't be surprised if Vrabel has his own dirt on Kraft/Brady and other assholes from that organization over the last couple decades.
