So on the abominable trick play yesterday.
 

I realize that this play ultimately did not affect the outcome of the game, and no, this is not a thread where I will bash Haley's playcalling.

I downloaded the highlights of this game this morning and upon watching them today I clearly noticed this on the interception play.

I'm sorry I cannot make it a gif, but the ball clearly hit the ground when Cassell threw him down. I know this is not a significant now, but I believe everyone was so disgusted with Haley that no one examined whether Goodman had control of the ball.

Repost Police, no need for excessive force.

It was a horrible horrible play, and Haley acknowledged as much.

But that was a helluva tackle...better than most of the tackles I've seen from Chiefs players.

Cassel said take that beeyatch!

Well if the whole QBOTF thing doesn't work out for Cassell we could try him as a MLB.

Cassel can play special teams
not quite a Blue and Orange #56 body slam
not bad though

Would have been a fumble. I believe he had control after catching it.

Castille might have a better arm than Cassel..

This reminds me
Did Light bulb head Bailey send #40 some flowers
I think he rubbed one out on him

Yep, i actually noticed the ball hit the ground on the replay during the game but felt he had possession beforehand anyways so it would've been a fumble in my mind. Terrible play and we deserved to turn it over.

The old half back throw back, lol woulda worked better with thigpen

It wasn't a horrible play CALL necessarily. Trick plays work sometimes, don't others. However, when Castille saw the double coverage, he should have been told to throw it away. THAT is where it became a horrible play.

FYP. Pretty sure anyone, a fuggin lineman, or kicker or waterboy should have known not to throw that ball.

And also, Cassel did make a pretty bad ass tackle on that. Maybe a great QB, maybe not, but he's definitely not a puss.

I just watched Haley's press conference again. Gretz asked him about the trick play what he was thinking. Haley said, "I was thinking attack."

I am so glad that Herm is gone.

There was a play around 10 minutes to go we are up 10 or so, and I saw the first pass was over 15 yards, going for the throat. Which was a perfect time for it since the broncos NEEDED the ball back, and we NEEDED to rest charles. Great Play call there when I thought we were going to run the ball or swing pass or screen pass. Nope pefect play call.

it was a catch by wade too

People can hate Haley all they want, but I like the idea of teaching this offense to attack, attack, and attack some more. Love it, actually.

the dumb thing is at the point I am talking about is the pefect time to attack. Now I thought maybe before that cassel INT we were going to do a draw and punt it, I just have a sense when cassel is going to try to make a play and he doesn't, there again we turned the ball over but I was ok with it, at some point the players have to make plays. The playcall with the halfback pass would have been fine if the RB doesn't throw it. Keeps the D honest and shows them to be ready for anything. People love to bash the playcall when it doesn't work. Note: we picked up a 3rd and 7 on a running back draw, no one bashes that play call, but there would have been a thread **** YOU TODD if it didn't work.
