I don't hate passing there but that was a very low percentage play. Just dumb. You take a safe throw and catch there if you think you have it. Not a 50/50 lob down the sideline e
I'm with you on this. Calling a pass is ballsy. Calling that pass...geez, Palmer should have seen that it wasn't there and just turtled it.

I completely see the argument for not punting - you're down 4, you need a TD, and who cares if KC gets the ball at the 20 - either you stop them in 4 plays and at worst are down 7, or the game's over - which it would be anyway if you punted and gave up one first down.

The play calls were a bit eh, that throw on 3rd down unless the penalty is called isn't a first down anyway
Your mistake is understandable give the team colors and clock management strategy.

Pats already had the clock in the same place and were up 7. I think Arizona passing is much more defensible

ludicrous non-call of DPI there!!!

Not quite in the Gronk tackled in the end zone class, but really terrible.
