Unless that approach does not work then it is stupid and he needs to play it safe and conservative, right?
I think there's a confusion between what it takes to "play to win" and "being stupid" and "playing not to lose".
If we had kicked the extra point in the 2nd quarter there's no one who would have a problem that. It's not like it was at the end of the 4th quarter where we needed the 2 points to get into overtime. Maybe Merv was confused and thought it was the second half?
Going for it on 4th down on our own side of the field early in the 3rd quarter is an act of desperation, not smart aggressive football when you call a weak ass play like that. I can see the difference as can most people.
