Nevertheless, here's what a couple guys that played in that game had to say about the clock management.
“You can look at it now and say we could have taken up more time,” said Dalton. “but I don’t think teams will think about it in real time. It’s unfortunate we left too much time.”
“When they scored, to look up and see three dots (timeouts) by our name and 1:22, if they’re going to score, score now so they can give us some time,” Roethlisberger said.
Right. Dalton agrees with me.
Everyone is a coaching genius NOW after seeing how every played worked out, but in REAL TIME teams can't think like that. That is why so many fans think they are smarter than NFL coaches.
