[QUOTE="Second and Chalmers, post: 1235206, member: 527609"] It's not quite AS bad as Jeremy Werner made it seem on twitter, but definitely on balance I think going for it would have been the higher percentage play. But Lovie wasn't kidding when he said he's always going to punt there. That's just the kind of coach he is and he's not going to change. The whole coaching profession, frankly, has an irrational aversion to going for it on 4th down. It's not unlike the way the baseball industry was stuck in its ways regarding the value of walks 10-15 years ago. Save your complaints for if and when he gets one clearly wrong as opposed to arguably wrong. [/QUOTE]
