What was Belichek thinking?
Has a coach ever made a worse call than Belichek did the other night? |

| There are two I can think of from recent history that might be up there - yesterday I read about Mangini running a gadget play in a hopeless situation with just seconds left in the game, end result was one of his best offensive players getting carted off the field in a completely preventable situation. Then a couple years back during the Patriots near-perfect run, there was Brian Billick who didn't have any real reason to call timeout but did so and ruined what should've been a Ravens victory and an earlier end to the Patriots' "perfect season". |

The worst call ever was made by Owen Templeton because he flipped a coin. 
Someone will get the reference... |

|

Its good to have faith in your team, but its another thing altogether, to be an egomaniac and completely out of touch with reality. Belicheck didn't even admit that he was wrong in the press conference that followed. He said that he had confidence in the play and basically that he would do it all over again. There was enough time on the clock that even if he got the first he would probably need to get another one.
In short my opinion is...
Its great to have that much confidence in your offense, Bill, but maybe you shouldn't show a complete lack of faith in your defense! ; - S |

| The worst call in football for me was the recent handball by Thierry Henry that cost the Republic of Ireland their place in the upcoming World Cup |

Can we leave the stupid schoolyard bickering alone? Take it to PM's you two. No one is interested in having this thread derailed by stupid shin kicking.
