[QUOTE="ClydeBrick, post: 130758, member: 1329"] Even though I am having fun with play, I agree with your post. It is like CPJ said after the Music City Bowl last year; "If that (reverse) play works, you call me a genius. When it doesn't work, you call me a dum$@#." When the mutts were crucifying Bobo for the 1st & Goal play at USCe and The Pick, I was laughing at them: Making the obvious call (Gurley/Chubb rush) is not always the best call - defenses tend to play the odds. Those plays - like the Seahawks yesterday - were colossal failures because of the execution - not the call. Blaming Bobo for the failure of a 21 year old kid being screamed at by 90k fans is ridiculous. All Mason - and Wilson - had to do was not get rid of the ball in a fashion that hurts (fumble, sack, intentional grounding or INT). With Mason, you can give him a pass due to his experience level, with Wilson - not so much. In either situation if the play works its great, if the play simply fails you move on to the next down - when the play results in a turnover (or a big penalty) because of a poor decision by a player it is the player who is at fault, not the play-caller. If the Seahawks score a TD on that play, Carroll is declared a gutsy-play-calling genius and Belichick is a idiot for not stopping the clock. And Jemaine Kearse cannot buy a drink in a bar for the rest of his life. Dang, football is a funny sport. [/QUOTE]
