If they fail on 4th down it’s almost surely over.

I agree with Beaker. Dumb. They have the ball, instead they gave it to f*ckin Brady?!? -- nm - JaxSean Jan 24, 15:11 8
- If they don’t score on 4th down, they gave the ball to Tom Brady with the only option left to tie. -- nm - Will Hunting Jan 24, 15:20 7

    - Wasn’t it 1st and goal from the 8 only three plays earlier with those exact parameters? -- nm - Will Hunting Jan 24, 15:32 4
      - sure, but they had to go again. the win-loss on that is a no brainer. -- nm - Beaker Jan 24, 15:33 3

if they don't get the ball back now it is over. -- nm - Beaker Jan 24, 15:05 4
- They have a chance to win now. They didn’t at all the other way. - Will Hunting Jan 24, 15:06 3
  - Right. You play to stay in the game when you aren't certain you'll get another possession. -- nm - pmb Jan 24, 16:01
  - I trust my offense much more than my defense. -- nm - Beaker Jan 24, 15:08 1
    - plus the refs -- nm - Beaker Jan 24, 15:09
