The Deflategate Super Bowl Thread: NE Patriots v Seattle Seahawks

[angler]

Worst call in Super Bowl History! You have the best running back in the NFL this year on the 1/2 yard line you give the ball to the beast, its that simple!

Belicheck helped Pete choke the big one. 9 out of 10 coaches would have called a time out. Not Belicheck. He learned from the Giants Super Bowl when he let Giants score to go ahead & Pats could only Get to midfield & lost. Pete & the Seahawks did not have a play ready so they passed. Much better for Pats to defend a pass than a run. Belicheck believed in his defense. Pete crapped out!

I disagree with that, it is just as easy to call a run as it is a pass. In fact it is more difficult to pass then run. Bellicheck had nothing to do with Pete choking, IMO Pete got to cute for himself.

Angler, you are certainly entitled to your opinion. But Carroll was not prepared when BB failed to call the expected time out. He had already blown his other 2 time outs with ill preparation. Pete is a great cheerleader, a lousy tactician and a choke. He had plenty of time left on the clock to try one run, call a time out and then throw two passes or one incomplete pass and another run. But he played the clock instead of trying to score because he was afraid to leave Brady with 20 seconds and two time outs. The Seattle dynasty is over and that team will never play the same for Pistol Pete. On to baseball season. I mean ski season.

Giving the ball to Lynch seemed to be the obvious call and would most likely gave them the win. But if Butler did not make that absolutely ridiculous All Pro type play then we all would be saying that Carroll was a genius and he out Belichicked Bill Belichick! It is obviously easy to say this and that but circumstances are easy calculate after the fact. This is why I said "God Givith and God Takith away". There was no way that guy should have made that catch and there is no way that butler should have made that interception.

I think we might be saying the same thing just getting they a different way. I agree he choked but Bellicheck not calling a time out should never had made a difference. Shit, you're an NFL coach with a Super Bowl win, a college national championship, so one would think they played this scenario out countless times and would know exactly what to do regardless of Bellicheck. Clearly not! More powder on the way enjoy!
