By the way I hate this stat. They’ve won multiple games when trailing by more than 5 IN the fourth quarter. It’s just when the quarter started they didn’t.
And that’s just a random moment in time in a game.
yeah but it’s not super misleading. Their offense IS designed to play from in front. They rely heavily on playaction
Also the defenses have been heavily pass-rush centered, they don't hold up against the run late
Of course, but Brady’s team was tied though, had OT to fall back on. Love had to get points.
If Love needed to get a TD, I'd concede your point. But he only needed another 30 yards for a FG attempt, and he had 52 seconds and two TOs left.
Also, it is a random number. They probably picked 5 because it makes the 0-fee work, suggesting -4 would have told a much different story. Last night, the first play of the fourth quarter was a FG so it became -4 by 14:56 left.
All quarterbacks probably do it though (throw back across the body) at one time or another. The speed of the game, the receiver might’ve been open, if briefly, they can’t help themselves. An analogy might be in baseball where all hitters at one time or another swing at fastballs up around their eyes even though they can’t catch up with them.
I really want the Lions to win, but I just don't think they will. They should have put away last week a number of times and barely got through.
I really don't want to see either team's magic carpet ride come to an end. Just gonna enjoy this baby for entertainment purposes.
Daniels founded a theater company where he grew up in Chelsea, MI, named the Purple Rose ... after the Woody Allen film he did
Pet peeve: don’t use the regular season records in the persistent score graphic. TB is 10-8, DET is 13-5.
Baker had Otten on that 2nd down play. Didn't see him. And then it caused the INT on the next play.
Tirico continuing his 20+ year streak of finding a way to mention Syracuse in every broadcast.
Yeah, putting your body between a tackler and the guy with the ball is very impressive.
That was a bad pass by Baker and a worse attempt by Evans and now the Bucs are in the wrong spot.
This is one of those drives where you know they are going to score but it just hasn't happened yet.
