His plant leg could have blown up ala Teddy Bridgewater if we tried to pass, too. Ok, that's not a really fair comparison but damn wasn't that nuts?
Well I mean, I'd agree that Burrow pretty much has to be prime Joe Montana perfect to get a W in a home division game, but that'd fit my narrative of ragging on the organization handcuffing him so I digress.
That was more of a shot at the defense. It's funny that Joe said he needed to play perfect to win. He played all but one play perfect pretty much and they lost.
What I'm getting at was the logic was fine. It's remedial coaching. If you get into FG range (they did), you mitigate risk. They did that. I don't understand what the commotion is all about here. Simmons ****** up and didn't have his unit ready to go in for a game winning FG....you see anyone blaming him? The blame lies in the FO effing up the defense and the DCs unwillingness to try something different with the personnel he's given. Then it's on Zac for not doing something about that. But this? The FG? Nah .....that was an easy call to me. Just seeing where Dax Hill is gone for the year too....
