[QUOTE="Boomergump, post: 264677, member: 639"] When that situation popped up my friend and I had a disagreement. I wanted to go because I felt we just couldn't afford to send the offense back to the bench at that point. We had possessed the ball so little in the game that we couldn't establish rhythm. Additionally our defense was only going to bend so long. He was in favor of punting because it was still a one score game and plenty of time left. He had the better argument, but I still wanted to go for it. At the time, I felt like the game was hanging in the balance on that single play and I was willing to live with the outcome. Oddly enough, even though we failed, I think it was the turning point in the contest. In life we experience events that are crystalizing moments which change us forever. In the context of this single game, our defense rising to the occasion on a short field sparked the entire team. Failing on 4th down refocused the offense. Getting the stop gave the defense confidence. The rest of the game was a one sided affair where we played with our hair of fire. At the time, I felt failing on 4th down would result in a loss. In fact, we failed and it had exactly the opposite effect. You just never know. Going forward however, I agree with coach. This experiment is over with the 2016 team. [/QUOTE]
