Gunther's Goalline sell-out

Hmmm. There were 21 seconds on the game clock ... there were 21 seconds on the play clock, too? The prior play was run at :58 according to the NFL site. The stuffed run by Morris would have been a darn brief play, one would think.

I'm growing tired of Gunther. I have absolutely no experience in playing or coaching football but right before the play I said to my friend "Watch, they are going to throw deep to Randy Moss." And you all know what happened from there. The fact that Gunther did not have the foresight to see that coming and put double coverage on Moss is horrible. It's amazing how stupid our coaching is on both units on this team. A good opposing coach will often know what we are going to do before we do it.

The defense was designed to bring heat and to double cover moss deep its not gunthers fault surtain is slow and mcgraw is out of position

That is what I saw as well, Surtain got lost in space and the our backup safety was well out of position.

I assumed McGraw was playing run first and was out of position becuase he was cheating up on the run, i.e. it was a coaching decision that put him out of position. Plus being slow as Darling.

I'll take a mistake resulting from being aggressive. It happens sometimes.

I would have to agree with that, to me 90% of the time you run in that scenario

We will have a lot of plays like this during the season with so many young players and not a whole lot of veteran talent
