[QUOTE="sschind, post: 1045944, member: 10247"] I've seen better but they all involved the Packers beating them. I spent 15 minutes at work this morning listen to a coworker rant and rave about how Hafley is no different than Joe Barry or Mike Pettine or any other [B]s[/B]hitty coordinator in the the league because he abandons what has been working and goes soft. Going conservative and milking the clock is pretty much standard for most defenses at some point with a moderate to large lead in the 4th quarter. It seems even the most aggressive coaches and coordinators will tend to gravitate towards it more often than not and for the most part it works. The most important variables are how big of a lead you have and how much time is left. I understand the principle but it can be frustrating. When the other team knows you are not going to throw the ball no matter what just so you don't stop the clock with an incompletion they can key on the run and it often shows. kryzygrl brings up an interesting point about when they let the play clock run down to the last second it seems they don't do as well. I wonder if it has to do with anticipation and pent up excitement of the play. They know the call and they are excited to get it run and thy get up to the line and now they have to hold for 10 seconds. maybe it has a psychological effect. I've often thought that the defense knows you are going to wait until the last second so why not snap it 5 seconds earlier to try to catch them napping so to speak. I know these guys are professionals but emotions can get to them as well. [/QUOTE]
