Just a rant here because i had Lamar adjusted at 325 +750 which probably hits if he gets the ball back needing to win the game. This is a pet peeve for me but how long are owners going to tolerate these asinine decisions that ruin games and in the Bengals case yesterday ruined their season. There was ZERO reason to go for two there. None. The lame announcers were speculating that the coach was afraid of his D losing the game in over time. Ok, using that logic, if they were successful, then that same D would have to defend Lamar for 40 plus seconds needing only a FG to win with 3 timeouts. So that dog don't hunt. I am so tired of these jackass coaches today thinking they know better than 100 years of football games. Kick the extra point. Defend for 40 seconds and hope for over time, where if you win the toss, you probably score a TD and win.
With that said, rant number two - how many games is the NFL going to allow to be ruined by absurdly bad officiating. On the 2 point conversion, there were TWO fouls. Gesicki was absolutely mugged and there was a blow to the head/face mask against Burrow. Refs swallow their whistles. Maybe in game deciding plays replay should be allowed to review for blatant fouls. I feel bad but at the same I do not because the coach put them in that position.
Rant over - onward.
