Time to make one try for a pass into the end zone and then kick the field goal.
But no, Brian "Play Not to Lose" Daboll goes immediately to the field goal. No guts whatsoever.
What would a field goal get us? No momentum, nothing. A TD could have lit a spark.
Oh, who am I kidding? Daboll sucks, Jones sucks, there is no hope.
We’re dealing with a total tear down situation.

Be realistic. That was about the least egregious thing that happened today.
I'll say this, if Barkley had run that physically while with the Giants they might have given him the money. It was obviously he wanted to inflict mental and physical punishment today. He never finished runs by punishing the defenders like that while here.
Kicking the field goal with time for another play first, clearly says to the team, "I'm your coach and I have so little faith in you that I have to play not to lose."
