Andy went for the kill and blew it, it happens.  Besides, we were playing against the #1 offense in the NFL and Palmer and Arians play a form of football that is so aggressive it is downright reckless at times (remember, they scored 21 points while we went a total of -1 yards).  This is where the big difference between these two (very good) teams lies.  Palmer can audible to a 40+ yard bomb on 3rd and 3 and Dalton attempts to continue to take advantage of AJ beating Patrick Peterson's backup and we lose our collective minds.

We need to mentally separate being disappointed with the result/execution from being disappointed by the decision.  Lord help this message board's bandwidth (or whatever it is) if we run it and fail and we look at the tape and see Andy NOT having the confidence, swagger, leadership blah blah blah to SEE and EXPLOIT AJ on some backup bum that keeps getting beat.  I'm just saying.

Anyways, I get the disappointment, but it's almost like people want this to be a confident team that puts its foot on the gas and never lets up and curb-stomps opponents, and punches them in the mouth, and imposes their will upon them, and pushes the envelope BUT only if it's going to be safe and work.
