    honestly, don't ever need to see any of the coaches or players wearing green and gold again. i'd rather watch us go full blown rebuild and spend the next 10 years going 1-15 then to watch any of these pussies play for us again

    this picture is fantastic

    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    With 26 sec on 2nd&g, you have to pass at least once to be able to use all 4 downs if necessary. Passing on 2nd keeps NE honest on 3 & 4 dn

    Marshawn Lynch asked if he's surprised he didn't get the football. Says "No." I ask him, Why not? Says, "Because football is a team sport."

    That was the only interception thrown from the 1-yard line the entire @nfl season.

    Carroll saved Belichick from being grilled over the inexplicable decision to not call timeout with :45 left. Even Andy Reid was shocked.

    Tyler Dunne ‏@TyDunne 4m4 minutes ago
    And now this. RT @ConorTOrr Darrell Bevell: "I call the plays." The plot thickens.

    Chris B. Brown ‏@smartfootball 3m3 minutes ago
    .@FieldGulls My guess is Bevell called it but Pete is standing up to take the head (he also didn't say no to call).

    Well....

    I guess McCarthy might not be the huge mental midget of coaches that we all thought. Pete Carroll just pulled a Mike Sherman.

    and Belichick should have called a TO to stop the clock.

    That's twice in this year's playoffs he made a huge time keeping blunder. He almost lost their first game by taking a knee 3 times and not realizing he coyldn't run out the clock doing that.
    But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.

    Or you can run it once and win the game.

    The advanced statistical analysis of the game of football is such a joke. Claiming you "have" to pass is perhaps one of the most moronic statements I've ever seen. Vince Lombardi would take Brian Burke's analysis and file it right in the trash where it belongs.

    Yep. I was shocked that he did not call a timeout with 50-something seconds left after Lynch got down to the 1.

    Look at PFF's numbers for Seattle's runs at the 1 yard line in the last three years (all with Lynch). They were 10 of 23. Less than 50% success rate. That isn't advanced statistical analysis. That's a recognition that a run is less than 50% likely to succeed.

    To increase your odds for either option to succeed, need to keep alive possibility that either could be called. That's why M3's empty backfield red zone is problematic. It was less problematic with Driver, Jennings, Jones and Ruvell (big target), but it leverages the defense against your call before the ball is snapped.

    3 of 8 passing isn't 50% either.

    Either way your formation has to allow you to do both. The 5 WR sets or 4 WR/1TE sets remove everything but a QB draw.

    Was hesitant to watch the game.....went for a ski at halftime and almost didn't turn it back on. Glad I did. What a finish.

    Which is a fine option for Rodgers (healthy) or Wilson, less likely for Brady, though he has done it.

    And they had two opportunities to give the ball to Lynch...which means your success rate "statistically" just jumped to 87%. Technically, they could've probably gotten a 3rd chance off if necessary if they had run the first play a little quicker. Now you are over 100%.

    I've got no argument there...if you are going to throw in the redzone, especially inside the 5 yard line, you should almost always do it off legitimate play action.

    The point is...all the "advanced metrics" tell us that McCarthy and Carroll apparently did the right things...and both guys wound up losing.

    So...are advanced metrics really to be believed in football?

    The probability wouldn't be additive. And the clock is a factor.
