I was extremely upset that we did not go for it on fourth down. We were very lucky that the saints did not attempt a pass on their last third down

 

He talked about this on the radio afterwards and the way the 2:00 warning and timeouts worked he thought he could get the ball back with 1:40 left. The warning happened to soon (if you get me) and they got it back with 1:00 left.

Same. Was so disgusted I tossed the remote in the air lol

Good thing they gave up on getting a first down and icing it combined with the fact our D is NASTY.

I was very surprised they didn't throw it. They played to win for 58 minutes, why change it up then.

Just another example of how much this league has changed. A minute is way too much time to give an offense to march down the field.

Why would the aints even think about a pass in that situation? C'mon man.

They did all they could do to milk the clock. Left us with less than a minute. They had to think that they were in the driver seat after the way their D played us all game.

We did what they thought we couldn't. Go 70 yards with no TOs. Does not make their play calling wrong?

Folks are so upset we won, they even want the aints to be villains. Get it together folks.

    • Most EVs are in the 90+ e-MPG meaning some measurement house somewhere compares the EV to a similar ICE model and works out how much is costs to charge (on average) versus fill up as a point of comparison. Talking long term, in the hundreds of thousands of miles?  No clue.  Some early signs are that EV batteries maintain 80% charge over 400k miles.  So there's that.   The challenge and charm of an ICE vehicle is being able to park it under a tree, get your jack stands out and tinker with your engine.  There's just not that same level of complexity in an EV.  I saw someone estimate there are 200 or so moving parts in an EV, and 2000 in an ICE vehicle.  I'm not a part counter so I can't really speak to that. I think that the EV is more the future than any type of combustion engine.  Those will still be around in specific purposes, but for most people - an EV will be the superior option in terms of efficiency.  I say that as someone who loves stupid horsepower numbers out of turbo 4 bangers and inline 6s...  I am one of those tinkers when I can be. A bigger issue for EVs is going to be the ownership versus lease.  Right now, there are INSANE leases on EVs, which is great, but what do you have at the end of that lease?  Nada, maybe some equity if you're lucky.  Where as I'm almost done paying for my car, and plan to keep it until the wheels fall off (or my son wrecks it when he starts to drive).  Will EV makers do the smartphone thing and build in planned obsolesce?  Stop updating software?  I love the tech in EVs, and I think getting more cars and trucks off the road is a good thing.  But I am still just a little concerned.  Capitalism has gotten far too extractive.
