I didn't read the entire thread so I don't know if this was mentioned. Anyone think of last year when the Titans were moving the ball pretty well in the 4th, but decided to punt on 4th and 1 with about 4 mins to go in the game?
I know they don't have Brady, and Manning is slumping a little, but when you're down by 6 with around 4 mins to go and have one of the best RB's in the league, you go for it on 4th and 1. You don't give the ball back to Manning to give him a chance, no matter how confident you are in your defense.
This bugged me really bad how Fisher avoided public blame for doing the wimpy, yet wrong move which resulted in a loss, but Belichick was destroyed for doing the gutsy, yet right move which also resulted in a loss.
The funny part is, had he gone for it and still lost, I think they would have probably said it was the move he had to make to give his team a chance to win. The media hates BB
