Okay, go-for-it-on-4th down critics/haters

I assume you would have taken the short FG? Take the points, right? What if we hadn't gotten in on the 4th and 1? Short FG's are automatic, right? What if we'd fumbled on they'd returned it 99?

PR, there is no question you have a good football mind and I respect how you always defend players and coaches. I wish there were more posters as positive as you. But forth and goal at the 4 or 5 vs. 1/2 yard line are not the same. If he had gone for it on 4th and goal from the 3+ yard line, I would have been disappointed, but all the calls today were good 4th down calls IMO. There were other areas I was disappointed with some play calling and not using our time outs when we could. Or another time we could have taken a time out when we lined up with players out of place and someone upstairs has to see it and should have called down for a sideline timeout. Instead, their QB runs in for an easy TD off right tackle.

What 4th and goal at the 4/5 are you talking about?

After everyone admits that the call at the end of the first half at NAU was the right call, I'll stop. Had UM not scored on the last one at the 1, and then lost, many like you would be criticizing the call. You wait to see what happened, and the second guess. But if the TD is scored, then everyone likes the call. For most of you, it doesn't depend on the situation; it depends on the result.

Maybe most of us, but not me. You are incorrect in regard to how I feel about 4th downs. Whatever I write on the board is how I reacted at the time of the decision, prior to the result.

I agreed with Delaney attempting the FG last week at 4th and 1 at 31-42, and still think it was a good decision.

Not the correct decision last week.

You totally missed my point. Get over yourself and listen.

You said the FG goal attempt last week was a good decision; I said it wasn't. Learned how to read. I didn't miss your point.

It all about the situation and all of the situations today called for us to go for it except the two we actually kicked. I love how you try to make your point as if it is a point that blankets all situations though.

"After everyone admits that the call at the end of the first half at NAU was the right call, I'll stop. Had UM not scored on the last one at the 1, and then lost, many like you would be criticizing the call."

Asking a question makes someone dense? Never knew that.

yes you have known that, and know so now.
 
An unreliable field goal kicker and a defense that can't stop the other team, changes everything in regard to 4th down decision making.

yep, you missed it alright. my point was that i thought it was the correct strategy before the unsuccessful kick, and still think it was the correct strategy in spite of the miss.

Yes, I saw what you said. I still think you were incorrect. That's my final decision. If you want to appeal my decision, all appeals on this point go to Alpha. Good luck.

The 4th down play at the end of the half of the NAU game, was 4th and 2--not 4th and 4/5.
