BB (I think it was BB) said something once -- wishing that something didn't happen isn't a reason to throw the challenge flag.
Norv really could have taken that to heart last night. Two idiotic challenges, and he could have used each of those time outs, not to mention the extra challenge on the interception that almost turned the game. Didn't matter in the end, because of AV's miss, but watching Norv last night it was clear what happens when you coach with your heart instead of your head. Our coach doesn't do that, usually.
Everyone this morning is talking about that simulated snap count and Dungy using the time out after the call. Did any of this matter? Everyone is acting like the Colts were going run a play there on 4th and short. No way. They either were going to call time out or take a delay. If they called a time out, they would have used it anyway, and AV still might have shanked it. If they took a delay penalty, it's the SAME 5 yard penalty as they got called for, and AV misses. I don't think the extra time out wins the game for them.
