yesterdays game against the seahawks was pure playing "afraid to lose" rather than "trying to win" and that is why the seahawks are going to the superbowl and not the Packers. I give props to the seahawks, but the Packers were the better team for most of that game and choked it away in the end.
1. not going for it on 4th and goal RIGHT at their 1 yard line. Worse comes to worse you get stuffed and the seahawks offense(which you shut down for most of the game) is starting IN THEIR ENDZONE after you were shutting them out most of the game. that was a no brainer to go for it IMO.
2. The worst offense of this IMO was 3 minutes left and ALL you need was to pick up a couple of first downs and the game is won and you are going to glendale. Instead, you run it up the gut 3 times and give the ball back to the seahawks with more than enough time to drive down the field and score. when the packers pulled that extremely conservative playcall I knew the game was lost.
and just those 2 points is why im glad we have belichick. we're up a few scores yesterday and we are going for it on 4th down to put the nail in the coffin of the colts, QB sneaks on 4th and 1. Belichick gets it....when you have a chance you need to beat your opponent down. not sit back and hope you can hold onto a win
