Fourth and goal from the 3 with a very inexperienced backup, so let’s put a high lev play in his hands rather than take the FG?

Don’t like it given the context.

I’m excited to teach my future kids about the ol’ days when FGs were a thing in the NFL.

Matt Rhule now 10-20. Only five years left on that contract.
Another college coach who can't handle the pros. . I'll amend my statement slightly as he was briefly an assistant with the Giants (although do they really qualify as professional nowadays?) . Who is the last coach to go directly from college to the NFL without being an NFL assistant and be successful? Sorry forgot the qualifier

Kliff? I don’t know his bio that well

The analytics in a vacuum say go for it there, but I would disagree given the context. Rookie QB facing a good defense take the points. At the very least run a less complicated play.

Bosa gets the sack and immediately celebrates, ignoring the fumble on the ground by going away from the ball. But SF recovers it anyway.

A Ravens loss would help the position of the Patriots while a GB loss helps the position of my other team, the Bucs. Conflicts!
