No onside kick

[cookinbrak]

Can anyone think of a reason we didn't try an onside kick at the end? There were still 4 seconds on the clock.

Because Mare is that bad, and Hurney is that stupid.

I think they tried a trick onside kick that went horribly wrong.

[Dpantherman]

I really don't think it mattered, but I guess its an interesting conversation.

because an onside kick would have eaten the whole clock, unless there was a penalty on that play which would negate and have to rekick, the game is over anyways.

[Kuech Da Sneak]

They tried to trick them by kicking it deeper & to the side, letting our players run past their good hands & grab it.

Really only has a chance of working if their deep man is slow and we have a sub 4.3 guy.

It was just another bad decision to go with the horrible decisions by special teams today, and tbh, since week 1. ST needs to shape up.

Whatever it was it was a turd attempt.

[rico6]

Ahh, so Rivera pretty much conceded to defeat.

That's nice.

[Carl Spackler]

They were more likely to fumble the return and have it returned for a touchdown than onside kick it, recover it and return it for a touchdown.

[Captain Obvious]

Because pickles and Fox suck ass

[hank pimple butt]

no point w/4 seconds left. what they did was smarter. Could have forced a fumble to win the game.

[SOJA]

try to kick it deep, catch them off guard, one of our gunners scoops it up and runs it for a score.....there were only like four seconds left, an onside kick, even if successful, would have been useless because we couldn't have gotten another play off

This. Game probably would've ended whether we recovered or not. But good question.

[cookinbrak]

Clock wouldn't have started until they touched it. 4 seconds is a lot of time.
