Once you get comfortable and start really thinking about the game you will become more confused

I've thought about this too... The only thing I can think is that Dan knew graves didn't have the leg for that distance but i would have rather seen him try

I thought our gameplan right out of the gate was garbage

Our first three possessions were the difference in that game.

There are a number of plays along the way we can point at as being big huge. But we were in the position because we didn't start playing until the middle of the second quarter.

For the record, that was the loudest stadium I have ever been in tonight. Our start to the game kept the crowd out of it until the 4Q.

Bell almost didn't have the leg for his miss. His long is what? 40? 43? And we trot him out there for a 52. I knew we would miss it even after his "practice kick" at that time out.

It would have been an all or nothing call, but a fake right there would have been interesting. Genius if it works. Idiot if it doesn't.

Fake with :08 on the clock? Shirley you jest.

****. Meant a "play" right there.

Bell didn't have the leg after the Miles time out. Could we have called time out and thrown the Hail Mary?

ETA: you can see that good ol hindsight is 20/20 will be fun to deal with all week after this loss. We'll have second guessed every call by Wednesday
