Irrelevant. You don't go for it on 4th & 17 in the 2Q. EVER.


Which explains why Charlie is working the sidelines today, while tomato is at home drinking beer and posting nonsense on message boards.

Right about now, I agree. Might as well play the field position game.

but their offense is playing worse than ours is, i dont think it would matter if we gave them the ball at the 36 or the 6, our defense wont just all of a sudden lay down and let them go where they please.

You punt and pin them behind the 10.

punting from the 35 seems more ridiculous to me than just trying to convert on 4th and long... I guess it's a personal preference thing. I don't necessarily know if either option has a high success rate.

Doesn't Clausen seem more accurate when he zips the ball versus tries to float it into position?

Didn't i say a deep post route earlier? Can I rep myself?

He keeps leading the nation in 4th down attempts he'll be sitting with me.

Yes.....and as I type that he floats one to Kamara for a TD. The TD to Grimes is the kind of pass I expect out of such a sought-after blue chipper like Clausen. The floater in the 1st quarter that the Duke DB knocked down was Clausen's fault....not Parris' (think it was Parris).

I doubt it. He may not be at ND much longer, if they don't get it going, but he's certainly going to be on someone's sidelines on the weekends.

Ok, I think I do have some magical power here. I just need to harness it.
