I realize when the sack happened. If they didn't want to try and score after the sack they would have just let the time expire.i have seen them do it. That is not what they did. They called the time out and threw it again to try and pick up some chunk yards.
Starting at the 15 with one minute left on the clock is a hard dive to deal with. If they throw 3 incompletions that gives the Browns about 40 seconds to score with more than likely good field position to score. Now imagine that scenario and the fans reaction had that happened. There is a reason why most of us are not coaches and just fans. We all want to push the ball and be aggressive but that can also come at a price.
What I'm saying is that why do the bengals call a timeout after the 2nd straight run still at their own 26 with 47 seconds left? I think it had a lot to do with all the booing. Perhaps I'm just not remembering right, but it seems like teams like the Patriots and Packers are almost always trying to score, no matter how much time is on the clock.
Oh well, I'd give AJ and Hill the game ball because they did awesome today.
