Explain to me again why GB went for a FG on 4th and goal

**Orbison** · 01-24-21, 06:20 PM

4th and Goal you mean, right?

right, lol

**Kermit** · 01-24-21, 06:21 PM

I guess they expected their defense to get them the ball back.

**jjgold** · 01-24-21, 06:22 PM

coach has to get fired tonight

Rogers leaving too

**slayer14** · 01-24-21, 06:22 PM

Sometimes it hard to figure out sports

**Shafted69** · 01-24-21, 06:23 PM

Wouldn't have mattered. The G.O.A.T would've have gotten as many 1st downs as needed.

**stake1** · 01-24-21, 06:24 PM

No explanation. Even if they did not get the td on fourth down?
Bucs are pinned inside the 10, and Packers still have all three timeouts

**Hman** · 01-24-21, 06:24 PM

And why did they go for 2 so early

**Sam Odom** · 01-24-21, 06:24 PM

1st and Goal <3mins

Play calling in that whole series was strange

**stake1** · 01-24-21, 06:24 PM

I think the third down play was the one that told the story.
Rogers could have ran and gotten close to the endzone.
He chose to force that pass

**bigtymer56** · 01-24-21, 06:25 PM

Hilarious. One of the worst calls ever.

**jjgold** · 01-24-21, 06:25 PM

Rogers hinting he is leaving Packers

**carolinakid** · 01-24-21, 06:26 PM

i dont understand why rogers did not run on 3rd down 1st, if not a td he would have been close to get in on 4th down

exactly. there is no downside to trying.

**asiagambler** · 01-24-21, 06:29 PM

Never in a million years did I think Packers would kick it there. Truly mind-boggling decision

**Al Masters** · 01-24-21, 06:32 PM

Awful coaching..These guys get huge bucks to to make ridiculous decisions.

He sabotaged his team by not going for it..one bullet left in the gun and he fires it to the sky.

**aveeno** · 01-24-21, 06:34 PM

There is no competent explanation. Except maybe that Democrats are in charge now and we all need to get used to stupid and unexplicable things happening..

Goes down as one of the WORST CALLS IN NFL HISTORY.

**Da Manster!** · 01-24-21, 06:37 PM

totally agree with all of the comments on here...no rhyme or reason for it...stupid fukkin call by the moronic coach...As morino would say....what a dumb shit!

**Heltah Skeltah** · 01-24-21, 06:37 PM

Rodgers had a clear path 2 the right side end zone if he kept running. Maybe he doesn't make it all the way but definitely gets within the 3 yard line. Instead he threw a bad pass on the run. That was on Rodgers not the coach. If he kept it and ran then they definitely go for it on 4th.
Blame goes on both qb and coach

**JayLA** · 01-24-21, 06:37 PM

I guess they though brady would give it up again

**Kermit** · 01-24-21, 06:40 PM

Even if you don't get the TD on 4th down(which Rogers should have ran it in on 3rd down) You put Brady and his team near the goal line, so stop them then.

One of my friends is a die-hard Packers' fan and he is on Facebook trying to justify the call. I got tired of arguing with him.

Aaron Rogers kept trying to force the ball to Adams and it cost them.

You're hired...

**Wrongside** · 01-24-21, 06:44 PM

That was crazy. I feel bad for Rodgers. To go for it would have been the obvious right call, the bold call - and the call the media (and everyone else) would not have 2nd guessed. Very curious...It was like he did it for the sole reason of screwing my Bucs -6.5 in mind...

I just got done telling my cousin the same exact thing!...He had a lot of grass in front of him on that 3rd and goal play...If just pulls the ball down and runs, he might score or at the very least get it inside the 5yd line with a very manageable 4th down and goal...

Exactly and if they don't get it on 4th then Tampa is backed up on say the 2 or 3 yard line! Rodgers was to blame more than the coach kicking the fg..although I hated the fg call

**jjgold** · 01-24-21, 06:53 PM

Tony you couldn’t get a delivery right around the block let alone coach a football team

Leave the coaching to guys like me

**pilebuck13** · 01-24-21, 06:55 PM

Only explanation is they didn’t trust Rodgers. To get it done but either way like said the only difference was needing 8 and needing just the 6. I think it was a good decision personally. My logic is either way they needed a defensive stop.... and the ball back would you rather have the ball needing 6? Or take your chances backed up and needing 8? Idk hard call really

Tony is sharp as a tack... GB would have won the game if he was calling the plays today.

They wouldn't need a stop if they scored and got the 2 pt conversion. There's no logic in kicking a FG, even if it was 4th and 30, in that spot. The game rewards the offense much more than the defense. Throw the ball up for grabs if you have to because you might get a flag thrown by a blind ref.

Yah have to score on 4th down and get a 2 point conversion 2 point conversions are not easy neither is a td idk either way they capitalized not on the turnovers

**pavyracer** · 01-24-21, 07:10 PM

Guys the Texans don't have a coach yet. You all need to appy for the job as you all have enough plays to call in situations like this.
