Did we really just play for the tie??????

[cardsfanmd]

You would rather give the other team position where their kicker regularly makes 55 yard FGs if you don't convert on 4th and 7.

Play smart or play dumb. What one do you choose?

I’d rather play to win the game.

This is not Madden football against some slob in his parent’s basement. You don’t go for it in that situation. The 2 and goal series in the first half was mismanaged, but not the 4th and 6 which would have likely resulted in a Detroit game winning field goal. I am just stunned by that game. Never seen anything like it

 

[nashman]

I still would have gone for it there. You never play for a tie, if it happens ok but you don't play for one.

You play NOT to lose in that situation, this young team feels a hell of a lot better with the comeback and tie than if they would have lost after all that.

Down 17-0. Come back. A tie is a win. Play for the loss and destroy this team's confidence built in the comeback. It's about the big picture right now.

 

[Vacard]

This was better than last year's debut, thats for sure.

 

[DVontel]

A tie is a loss in Detroit’s case.

No way they should have choked away that game, but Kyler is a young GOAT.

 

[Dr. Jones]

I’d rather play to win the game.

Especially since this year is all about building something. Swing them ballsy plays....... Attack those jokers. We aren't winning the Super Bowl so go get some scalps!!!

 

[Jasper]

Our offense sucked for 3 qtrs, at the end of the game our opponent did not win. Our rookie HC and rookie QB did not lose. We finally got some excitement and became competitive compared to last season.
I’m tired.

If Murray completes that last pass, it's game over cards. His target was wide open. Four balls knocked down today. He will be better next week.

 

[NYCARDS]

I’m not going for it on 4th and 7 near midfield

Why not? If we are being honest we know this season isn’t going anywhere. Let’s play for the W!

That’s scared mentality 101.

 

[Mainstreet]

Agreed you have to punt there can’t give Stanford and their kicker a short field it would have resulted in a loss!

And if Brock makes the interception the Cardinals would have had the chance for the winning field goal.

 

[The6]

Report- multiple players wanting out after the fish gets slapped today. Could be worse ladies and gentlemen.

You must not have watched any of the Raven’s game today. We will be 14-21pt dogs next week.

Yeah, we could’ve kept Wilks and Rosen.

 

[NYCARDS]

Brock is not going to sleep well tonight

 

[Dr. Jones]

That Ravens game could be a bloodbath. hahaha

I'm gonna tell them to just not kill my QB

 

[cardsfanmd]

Brock is not going to sleep well tonight

Fwiw, after getting embarrassed all day, he saved the game with his play in the end zone.

 

[Jasper]

Going for it is way too risky, losing the ball game would have been devastating to the team that fought back down 18 points in the 4th quarter.

We rose up from the dead a gave it one hell of a fight.

 

[Dr. Jones]

Our CB's held up fairly well considering. ESPECIALLY Murphy.

 

[Milgod]

A tie is a loss.

It's not though, is it.

Otherwise they would call it a loss.

 

[Evil Ash]

4th and long. Not 4th and 2, where many of us could be talked into it. There's playing for the win and there's just stupidity.

There's something to build off here. Hell the people saying go for it probably call for kingsbury's head if they (likely) fail

 

[The6]

It's not though, is it.

Otherwise they would call it a loss.

A tie is not a loss. Its neither a win or a loss

Considering how things looked earlier on, it's a moral victory.

 

[PACardsFan]

You could tell that K1 was pissed that they didn’t go for it. Kid is a competitor. Who would have thought at halftime that he would have thrown for 308 yards!!! Let’s enjoy the moment. Hollywood is going to torch us next week.

#33 on his 1st ever NFL start was great. Better than Brandon Williams 1st game.
