[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 1050875, member: 7261"] Seems like the previous games Matt took the ball to start the game, if he won the toss. He changed that up last night and it did kind of backfire, but remember, the Packers got the ball to start the 2nd half and that is when the game turned around. I can only guess as to how he makes the decision, but on the road, with a loud crowd that is ready to start screaming from the kickoff on, I might choose to kick it off too. If your defense gets a stop, that might quiet a few fans for your opening offensive series. I'm actually more curious about Matt's timeout strategy at the end of halves. He did it again yesterday, usuing TO's during Detroit's drive at the end of the first half. I don't get that strategy. Detroit was in full control of the clock and the ball, giving them more time to run the ball, pick up first downs, strategize, etc. just doesn't make sense to me. Same thing happened in a previous game. Oh boy, give the ball back to Love with 11 seconds on the clock, after the Lions score a TD? Come on MATT! To confuse me even more, in the 2nd half, the Lions run a play that ends with 2:41 left on the clock. What does Matt do with his 2 timeouts? Sits on them. WTF Matt? [/QUOTE]
