You are questioning the Saints play calling when the Seahawks could've made a chip shot FG to make it a one possesion game and had a chance at an onsides kick but instead go for the TD on 4th down eliminating any chance they had??

Hater..

:rolleyes:

I'm not saying the 'Hawks played a perfect game either, I just am always baffled when teams are playing with the lead and don't do something so simple as merely running the ball 3 times to eat time off the clock. Even if you don't get a first down, you make it so much harder for the opposing team to come back by limiting the time the have to work with.



Also, I agree with you sort of but at the same time I can see why the 'Hawks went for it. You need two scores either way, and yeah you could get an easy FG but you'd still need to get the ball back and drive down the field for a TD anyway, which is pretty unlikely anyway. One of those "rock and a hard place" situations.

Yeah but by kicking the FG, you are at least giving yourself the chance to get the ball back.. By going for it on forth, in FG range, you pretty much eliminate all chances of getting the ball back, if you don't get the TD/1st down..
