I thought ,, why risk the fake FG. It worked. Just looking at what it would have been if we didn't get the 1st.
I'm tired of this Sh*t....The

and another thing.. we have 2 backs in the back field.. Nix leads every time we run. How about mixing in a counter?
Bell needs to just ******* run on short yardage, there's not time to pick your spot there.

I have to whine, *****, & moan about this comment.....
Perhaps our 6'5" QB should try a sneak? If I'm scouting this team, they do not QB sneak in short yardage. In Ben's early years, this play was nearly unstoppable. Now it's been over a year since we've run a single sneak.
I am all about not Nix-ing your chances of success on third and one.
It's been a lot longer than that, Cope. I can't remember Ben running a QB sneak for years, ever since his concussion issues arose.
I thought he ran 1 last year. But this is a problem and a HUGE scouting advantage to defenses playing us on 3rd/4th and short.
Big Ben has a decent amount of reoccurring leg issues. Which contributed to him losing some mobility. Perhaps that comes to mind weighing risk versus reward. When you become a runner you can be hit.
What is this play fake you speak of? Can you send a picture or video to Haley as a reference? We have to be one of the only teams that gouges teams with our running game from the QB under center and then go to a shotgun formation for almost all of our pass plays or empty backfield. We basically telegraph when we are running vs. passing.
calling stretch running plays on 3rd and 1 makes **** for sense.
If we are scratchin' for a *****, I'd like to throw in my 2 cents worth.
Artie Burns is already pissing me off with his Neon Deon imitation tackling technique. One play in particular I saw him hit the running back with a shoulder rub after the back had cleared the LOS. Thankfully Shazier was there to finish him off but if it was up to 25, that back would still be running around the stadium. I get the feeling he don't much care for the rough stuff.in the middle...jus sayin'
The only for real ***** at this point has to be the short yardage offense. They fix that and the stars will be aligned again in da burgh.

Hey, hey, Chip, complaining thread!
I hear you, but there's a difference between being a runner, and being a falling tree between 2 all pros (Pouncey and Decastro).

Don't you think just running behind these guys with a RB we would be able to get a few inches?
He wasn’t used properly. ...happy thoughts.
thanks to you sir. I enjoy boobs.
I'd hope. Usually when you're playing a team that runs a lot of sneaks, you overload the A gaps and the only way you win is by timing the penetration. Being pot committed in the middle, at least opens up the possibility of an outside run, or play action and someone will actually bite on it!
If you zoom in. Yeah that’s where I want to be.
Brady's 40 years old, and he sneaks the ball a couple times just about every week. I just don't understand why Ben cannot.
