It was actually not too far away from succeeding.
Boneheaded move. This pisses me off more than anything else I've seen in this game.
On a positive note if we lose this game we beat ourselves..
The Texans went right out side to stop it. They acted like they knew it’s was coming
I'm fine with going for it I just hate running ETN there he's not a power back

You took Strange in the second round; use him as an H-back and run it up the middle if you trust the line that little. Find some way to get a yard.

Strange sucks.  He shouldn't even be out there right now and we damn sure don't need to run behind him

Up 6 at the half. I'll take it. Got plenty to improve on but we're just inches away from a big play here. It's coming.

We're up by 6 and take the kickoff at the beginning of the 2nd half. I'll take that too.

Life of a HC. I get Doug going for it but not the greatest playcall but we're still good. 

We don't do things the easy way.

I have literally zero problems going for it. I have MAJOR problems not running it up the middle or sneaking to get 6 inches.
Tbf we scored a lot of TD's and 2Pts from this play, I just think ETN is not 100%. But yeah love the screen here
(11-26-2023, 03:34 PM)Newton Wrote: [ -> ]Yeah at least out in tank or qb sneak. Etienne is a gear back, but he has been stonewalled all year for short yardage

Yep ETN is not the guy for that play. Tank or Johnson are better options.

But it won't #becausejaguars
I dont mind the decision there. I just didn't like the play call. Again, they're stopping your run all game and that was your decision against a loaded box? A [BLEEP] fake QB keeper pitch to Etienne? We're not the Eagles or Ravens. Nobody was buying Lawrence keeping that from the 1 or 2 yard line again. You go pass there.

And had it succeeded, we would have been the greatest team of all time. Sometimes gambles have to be made, not all of them pay off. 

We move on with a lead.
Like the call to go for it, but hate the play. Should have just let Trevor reach it over the line again, it was there.
On a good note, Trevor has 219 yards passing at half.
I like the call to go for it. I hate the play selection

He coulda paused and probably just launched himself over the line, they all dove and nobody was in the middle. ARGGHHH.
I’m just tired of losing to the Texans. No matter if they’re better, worst, or equal to us we always hand them the game

Exactly
And of course, the halftime replays favor the team in the Battle Flow colors even though we have the lead.
