Message: [QUOTE="Scooch, post: 352396, member: 628"] A few years back there was that infamous Monday Night game where the Pats went for it on a 4th and 2 from their own 26, up 5 (I think) with a couple minutes left. Pass was completed right at the stick and the Colts took over, scored, and won. Belichick was crushed for the decision, but I LOVED it. He had confidence that his O could get 2 measely yards, and if they had the game was ovah. Plus Peyton had spent the previous 2 quarters destroying the Pats D, so Bill knew that if he punted the ball back to him chances were very high that he'd march down and score anyway. Point is, I respect and support any coach who plays to win, and not to prolong a potential loss. [/QUOTE]
