Bengals at Ravens last Sunday, 10:15 left in the 3rd quarter, Bengals ahead by only 1 leading 14 to Ravens 13. Ball is on Ravens own 45 and it's 4th and 1. John Harbaugh said go for it, Lamar Jackson quarterback sneak to left no gain, ball turns over to Cincy in Ravens territory with 25 minutes left in the game. Harbaugh challenges and replay upholds the call, Ravens lose a timeout. 7 plays later Bengals score TD, now ahead 21 to 13.
Does going for 4 and 1 in your own territory down by only 1 early in the second half sound like a wise coaching decision? I didn't think so, that's why I think Harbaugh will be gone this year. Anyway, every team that doesn't make it to the Super Bowl and wins had lousy play calling per their fans. Just this morning I read in the paper an editorial that said Green Bay should fire Mike McCarthy, he has Aaron Rodgers pass way too much, which I agree with.
