Well you're somewhat objective. I've said this many times.

Please Roger, tell me more. When a guy who argues almost exclusively in hyperbole says something like this, his self awareness is pretty much absolute zero.

I'm very hard on coaches, Roger. They get paid an obscene amount of money to win games. IMO, college players don't lose games. Coaches do. I'm a huge Will Wade fan, but if he misses the tourney I'm gonna give him hell about it.

He's disagreed with your entire stance.

RB disagrees with it. His criteria is a bit fuzzy though.

Why not try to get 4 yards to wrap up the game though
The coaches made the right choice. The defense had shut aTm down in the second half. Giving it to your defense to win the game was the right thing to do.

The fricking irony.

So you didn't say you could blame the offense in some games, or situations?

One unit can be to blame if they get 50 dropped on them or only score 10 points.
Your own words. And it's my reading comprehension?

I see a post that gives a logical stance to blaming one unit for performing poorly for an entire game.
Are you under the impression that blaming a unit for a loss for playing an entire game poorly is the same thing as blaming them for the loss due to 1 or 2 plays?
I don't see anywhere in that post where I blame the offense for losing the game on one or two plays, do you?

But if you have a chance to essentially put the game out of reach right there without giving the ball back, why wouldn't you do that?
You're saying taking extra steps and assuming a result was the right move. Whenever you extend the game, you're increasing the likelihood of negative events occurring.
The entire problem is decision makers assuming results. I don't say that to bash the decision makers. I know they work very hard at these things and for that I'm very grateful as an LSU fan.

No, you're waffling. You said my comprehension was bad when pointed it out
Did you write that?
Or are you claiming some subjective boogey woogy that only you can define?

At what risk?
If we had turned it over, do you realize what you would be complaining about now?

I'm making a claim of a whole game vs. one or two plays. Do you not understand the difference between the two?

Not even close man.
Can one unit be blamed for a whole game of poor play? Absolutely.
Blaming one unit for the loss because of one or two plays? That's still as asinine as it was the first time you posted it.
There is a massive, massive difference between these two notions.

Passing the ball only shortens the game if it’s complete for a first down. If it’s incomplete it will lengthen the game bacause A&M would not have had to burn their timeouts. Completing passes for a first down is a big if with this team.

Then we would've given them what, 15 yards of field position? For the defense that had shut down A&M that entire half, seems like a risk worth taking.
