Also, I don't want to be down on him. And actually I think I agree with the decision, but do you guys think Zorn should have gone for the TD on their last drive instead of the FG?

I was on the fence with that. On one hand I love Zorn's aggressiveness, but that mentality isn't going to work all the time. In that situation I couldn't argue with milking the clock and not risking a turnover, and taking a 9 point lead with just a few minutes on the clock.

Zorn is pretty aggressive with his playcalling, which I love. However, there were a few times where I thought we could have been even more aggressive. I hated the squib kick; our special teams had the Cowboys on lockdown all afternoon so I didn't think the squib was necessary. We were running the ball very effectively, but I thought we ran it a tad bit too much on our last drive.

Overall, I can't really complain about anything. A+ for all 3 units.

I agree w/ his decision to run b/c he would essential require them to score twice w/ zero timeouts and assuming they don't get a quicky, have to get an onsides kick. That's alot to do my friend. The odds are against it.

So given the favorable odds, I agree w/ his decision.

Well I was more upset about two straight runs in the first half when we had the chance to go up 21-7 and pretty much end the game there.

One of those plays should've been a PA pass.
