What reason did we have to think that throwing the ball from the seven would be an automatic touchdown?

First and goal at the three, you are going to score a TD 80% of the time. 80% is not a certainty. Once you get backed up to the 7 on third down, that's now like 30-35%. Obviously the 3rd down call isn't what ruined our chances to score.

4 mins to go, no timeouts, and 70 yards to go each one of them need for a touchdown is pretty steep odds to win. I would not have passed up a chance to put a team in that position. To me, that is going for the jugular.

Once you have them down to those slim odds, you just have to execute. On the screen pass, we just got lazy. That's why we lost.

With the way Campbell had been performing up to that point, I like his chances better than that of a draw play. Certainly nothing is automatic, and it could be that no matter what we tried, it just wasn't meant to be that we win this game.

As for the coaches, I've addressed that here.
