Thoughts the day after

I'm not mad about the last play call. We needed to burn a touch of clock. I am pissed CEH wasn't more aware of the situation and didn't cover the ball with 2 arms.

We were not yet in the field position to burn clock for the sake of burning it. They had one timeout and it was about a minute left. You get 10-15 more yards and do whatever you want then to burn clock for the easy field goal.

No one was expecting a fumble but it isn’t hindsight to say keep throwing because plenty of people where saying it prior. That run play was 50/50 at best for a first down before it was even ran because CEH sucks. A pass play was all but a guaranteed first down the way they had no answer for our short passing game and you can still run the clock then.

Especially seeing how the Ravens stacked the line on that play, I was hoping they wouldn't run the ball, but hell. Hindsight.
