    Might as well. Cundiff struggles with anything near 50 + and we probably won't get the ball again if it's punted.

    Game on the line here, Ravens will probably make a mess of it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,249 ✭✭✭Stev_o


    This to go to the SB

    Its not ballsy imo, its stupid. They have been stopped three times and now have shown no faith in their kicker. Now they expect him to come on the field and level the game. I think thats a terrible thing to do, its just putting thoughts in his head that he doesn't need.

    Right call to go for it


  • Subscribers Posts: 16,889 ✭✭✭✭copacetic


    Wow, some call. It had to be worth a shot?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 25,953 ✭✭✭✭kryogen


    Clock management please


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    Game over, had to go for it though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,249 ✭✭✭Stev_o


    Bar a miracle that's the game.

    Cundiff doesn't make 50 + yard field goals. It's either take a chance, or just give them the ball back and let them run down the clock.

    It's game over now but it was the right decision to go for it.

    Terrible call from the Ravens. Now Brady no agression please, just run the clock and get us to Indy!

    Not a hope. One minute tops with no timeouts and thats if the pats dont get a 1st, which they will

    What is your fascination with comments that are completely factually incorrect?

    that call has put there chances in jeopardy

    was working off the assumption that the pats would get an instant 1st... actually hang on now. Still dunno does flacco have it in him


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 25,953 ✭✭✭✭kryogen


    squeky bum time

    Cundiff can't kick that far. It simply wasn't on.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 5,208 Mod ✭✭✭✭GoldFour4


    Brady should have picked on someone other then Ed Reed there. Was always gonna make the big play to keep the Ravens in it !


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,611 ✭✭✭skeleton_boy


    Ridiculous to claim it was over then. Only need a FG now to send it to OT


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,592 ✭✭✭Tristram


    Nervous.

    No, you said a minute tops and no timeouts if they don't get the 1st.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,098 ✭✭✭Johnny_Fontane


    Whatever happens, fair dues to the ravens....

    The bookies gave them little chance

    I think he's professional enough to know himself that he wouldn't be making it from that distance.

    Most kickers will factor in the wind etc in the warm ups and let the coach know what distance he can make it from.

    I suspect Cundiff's was nearer 40 than 50 +.
