It fails as often as it succeeds and doing so gives the FG kicker a free practice shot. It doesn't need an idea because it isn't a problem. |

when teams are running out the clock I like trying for the DT to swipe at the ball to try to get a fumbled snap. At worse it is delay of game.

A 6 yard out pattern didn't do them much good. I was really surprised to see that they didn't hit Miller in the seam after he spent as much time open in that game as he did. |

I'll accept that. |

But it's a bundle of sticks move in the first place, so I think the kickers are starting to miss them just to play with the other sideline when the come back and nail the kick anyway. But if we're going to fix the rule, the fix it for good.. Specifically ALLOW the kickers to kick a few practice kicks in the TO and that'll fix the bundle of sticks move once and for all... |

If a kicker ever misses a kick on purpose, he's a moron. There is so much muscle memory involved that it's insane to try to tinker with it to intentionally miss a kick. Bryant simply yacked the kick but when he saw what it did, he was able to make an immediate adjustment and try again. The 'ice' backfired perfectly on Carrol there and that is the 'market' solution to the icing attempts. And ultimately I think the fact that so many coaches have stopped doing them suggests that they're figuring this out as well. |

Either way, that situation was mismanaged badly. |

Unless they managed a 12th guy on that field, there had to be an open zone somewhere. Whether it was a bad playcall or a poor decision by Wilson, I refuse to believe that a 4 yard dump when a defender was in the immediate vicinity was the best he could do. Ultimately I wonder if perhaps he panicked a little and got the ball out sooner than he needed to because he was worried about having the clock run out on him again like at the end of the first half. I'm more inclined to say that was a rookie hiccup than that bad a playcall. |

I was listening to it on the radio. When the Falcons didn't center the ball, the DialGlobal guys called it. They both said "just watch, he's gonna pull this ball right and miss it". Totally surreal. Pete Carroll is a moron. |
