Too risky. You don't want to turn the ball over in that situation. Safer to punt the ball away. /Crennel

You might win, take no chances.

Although gutless, I'd argue it was the right call.
At that point we were in a dogfight. If we kicked the field goal, we likely would have missed and given them the ball in our territory with 10 seconds and a timeout. One 12-15 yard pass gives them a chance to add 3 quick points before calling it a half. If we throw it... well, that's not really an option apparently. I will agree that you take that chance with good QB though. |

Romeo coaches like Cassel plays -- Frightened like a little girl. I would wager almost every other coach in the NFL would have at least tried another pass to get into field goal range. Who knows, 3 more points might have come in handy later... [/sarcasm] |
The fact that Romeo thinks that it's "too risky" + Daboll having no confidence in Cassel + Cassel being more secure at the position then Excalibur was in that rock = Chiefs have ZERO chance to do anything this season.

It was a simple decision. You try to run a quick out to get 8 yards. You complete it, you have the first down and you're now in FG range. If it's covered, throw it away. Even if you turn it over on downs, there's only time left for one play, and that's a hail mary. It was a terrible decision and just further solidifies that we are out-gunned at the HC position every week.

You'd have kicked a 60 yard field goal with Ryan Succop? We hold our breaths when the guy boots a 38 yarder. A try from that far has a HUGE possibility of being block and returned for a TD or just flat out missing, putting them in great position to get off a field goal after a quick pass. The only other option was a quick out route. Then again, the Ravens are an extremely experienced defense and definitely would have known that. They'd have been looking to jump any out route; combine that with Cassel's WR death staredown and molasses-dipped release and you're looking at a possible pick 6. |
The man does not have an aggressive bone in his body.
I doubt he's seen his own dick in 10 years. |
