It's much easier to be more conservative when you have an elite QB and a kicker who can hit from 58+. It just sucks as a fan who wants to see more aggressiveness and even moreso when your kicker hasn't been as consistent as you'd like.
After i get back to highlighting the "clutchness" debate, i'll probably look at how many close games were won by just holding the lead. The losses just stand out more and are more easily remembered.
It sure would be remembered if we were really aggressive and it went for an interception, and it lost us the game...
That is all I know.
I just wish we would ride the hot hand late in games more and trust it. But I understand the conservative play for the win when we are up ways.
