The next time we are down seven in the third qtr, our D is playing well--not allowing any second-half points up to that point, and as we now know, wouldn't allow any 2nd half points at all, and our O has driven us deep into the opponent's red zone, twice--we did know that, no hindsight required, we should again
1. Panic !
2. Poop and pee uncontrollably down our leg ! and
3. Go for it because we're never going to get back here, screw the FG's !
4. And lose another close game at WA-GRIZ !!! (Having a winning record at home is really overrated, after all !)
Say he kicks both field goals, but then we never get the Roberts TD.
You'd all be crucifying him on here for being a wuss and not manning up and going for it.
There were a lot of things that lead to us losing the game.
It wasn't Stitt's fault our QB threw a pick six. It wasn't Stitt's fault our defense couldn't stay home vs. a WR pass. It wasn't Stitt's fault we couldn't stop their run game (OMG FIRE TY!!!1!1).
And seriously, what if we had missed both field goals?
I get that you guys don't like Stitt, but you're choosing to ignore a lot because it's easier to hate on the guy.
