OT: Bill Polian is insane

[PrairiePat]

However, had the first down stood, what we then would have done was knelt down three times, which would have used up all the time left on the clock. We would have taken a timeout with seven seconds left and kicked the winning field goal and San Diego would never have gotten the ball back. That was exactly the right strategy. It was exactly what we needed to do.

Polian has nothing to complain about, as many have written here - the replay clearly showed the correct spot of the ball.

The funny part is that 3 kneeldowns would have moved the ball back 4-5 yards anyhow, so Vinatieri still would have missed that kick, and the Colts would have had NO time to try those last few plays at the end.

How does Polian figure the outcome would have changed??

Kinda like Bellycheck*. Im sure cheating with video cameras gets a big thumbs up on the NFL's reputation.
Oh, the wicked irony.

Let's see... horse in the screen name, trolling in the content... must be something from a has-been 7-2 team!!!

Dude, your wisdom is needed on a Colts board... they're getting way too used to excuses and losing. Help them out over there! Over here, we're just peachy.

You know what's funny PatFanInVa? Everyone may hate us but everyone wants to watch us. That's why NBC moves the Pats/Bills game to prime time during their November sweeps rating period. It ain't 'cause of the Bills!
Fans may hate us but people love to watch this team play. And the ratings will only build as this team continues to win.

LOL Rhody, got that right. The Cowboys were America's Team at some point... well, we're the Team America Loves to Hate.

Hate on my brothers!

Sorry not my post, it was a quote from someone else. But on the other hand Goodell NEVER said the Pats CHEATED. It has become an urban legand or myth that he did. They the pats, technically broke a rule by 15 feet. If the camera was fifteen feet father back it wouldn't have been against the rules. But of course you don't want to hear that because it doesn't fit you attack troll agenda does it.

Let them have the excuses. At the end of the season, they can lament what might have been.
