Is LEFTWICH nuts?

Quote from Byron:

Jacksonville wrapped up the game with 2:45 left, when Jack Del Rio chose to go for it on fourth-and-inches from the Bucs 40. Fred Taylor split through the line for 3 yards, then the Jaguars ran out the clock.

"I loved that" call, Leftwich said. "Plays like that bring teams together. A play like that could be the turning point of our season.

HUH?

They are having an expected down season but even with that, they could still make a solid move to end the season & carry that into next year.

It has happened time & time again, how something from last season can carry into next season & them ending on a positive note would be a good thing.

I'm sure they are a little pumped since regardless of how the Bucs are doing this year, they are the defending champions.

Ok, I guess I can buy into that.

Sorry Byron.

I would never have thrown it in that case..but when your 2-9 you have no right or wrong anymore..IMO makes you the more dangerous team as you do not follow the rules when it comes to that

OK to all of that but what does it take to throw the red flag? Assistants finally getting to the coach on the supposed Barber intercept on one of the most rediculous play calls I've seen this year. And why was it not thrown when the Bucs TD obviously wasn't one. These guys almost lost it for me.

Mr.Jones-- We talked about this in length in person and that is the ROUTINE common sense mistakes football coaches make on both the NCAA and NFL level. It is absolutely unreal the thinking of these coaches week in an week out!! Please note, I am not talking just about play calling, but common sense things like Dungy kicking the ball deep with 10 seconds left in the half. THIS STUFF IS COMMON PLACE ANYMORE!! Very aggrevating for me to watch. I have the itch to get back into coaching.
