    With less than 2 minutes to go and down 17-12, he went for a field goal (from the 21 yard line, a 38 yarder), and then proceeded to onside kick it.

    Me dunno. :huh:

    just curious, but is there ever a coaching move you like? lol

    every sunday (or thursday) in green bay's case this past week, you're singling out a coach and picking on a move he made. :)

    I only pick out the obviously bad ones.

    I don't think even SabanFan can defend this one.

    I think you're mixing me up with my DOTB, he dumped all over Shanihan a couple of weeks back.

    What was down and distance.? I've seen that stratedgy contemplated and used many times. If he kicks the field goal and recovers and on side kick he is close to being in field goal range again.
    I could be worse such as with no timeouts, fifteen seconds on the clock, and down by two, try to run the ball.
