plan9misfit Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 If Zuerlein missed that kick, it would’ve all been on McCarthy for letting 5 seconds tick off the clock for no reason whatsoever. That’s Jason Garrett level stupid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quiller Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 About the only thing I can think of for how that end game went is McCarthy knew his kicker needed to be on the right hash... so the run to set up the kicker with faith that he will make it...

cromagnum Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 That was some of the worst clock management I have ever seen. Greg redeemed himself after last week’s terrible performance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matts4313 Posted September 19, 2021 Author Share Posted September 19, 2021 :shakes head: The clock management was fine if thats the range Zueline was comfortable with. Which it clearly was as we did not attempt to gain any more yards even though we had time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It actually reminded me of him. It’s unbelievable how bad a lot of coaches are at clock management. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People will knock the time management at the end, but clearly McCarthy was more concerned about losing yards than kicking a 56 yarder. And he was right. He was right, but that was bad. Not sure how that can be argued Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Z has not been reliable in this very short season obviously. I'd want to get it at the goal line before wanting him to kick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how that can be argued One sack and the argument is really easy. Or a fumble. Or an INT. Remember that time Romo threw a pick 6 (Redskins?) before half and fans bashed Garrett for 10 years? This is a similar situation, but we played it safe this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right, and I am saying they thought/knew/felt they didnt need to get any closer and managed the game so as to not lose yards or possession. Apply the same principal as if we were kicking a 30 yarder. The "I dont need any more yards because it doesnt change the difficulty of the kick" mindset. They believed they were in range. They were correct.

Texas_OutLaw7 Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 Man. I'm so happy. I'm not even going to acknowledge Matt's absurd take. Let's go. We didn't need super dak to win. That feels great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
