    Bears with a master class on how NOT to manage the clock.
    ...he went up late, and I was already up there.

    Rookie QB growing pains. He should have spiked the ball to stop the clock (it wasn’t 4th down, was it?).

    Golf is a relatively simple game, played by reasonably intelligent people, stupidly.

    I may be wrong, but I think they had a TO left, so perhaps on the coach.

    Absolutely on the coach. The disarray during the last 33 seconds was astounding. I get that a 58 yd. FG isn’t a gimme but I have always been of the opinion that having a time out left with no time on the clock doesn’t make any sense. Should Williams have called one on his own. Given the abysmal result, yes.

    But then again, I have neither coached in the NFL nor played QB in the NFL. And the only thing I have observed is the Timex watch I used to wear usually kept as good of time as the Rolexes I would see around the courthouse during my legal career.

    But then again, I never owned a Rolex; and one isn’t on my Christmas list….

    They just fired the coach. Guess that might have contributed to it.
    But he was unapologetic about how the game ended. Said they managed the clock correctly.
    Not so sure about that.

    He should have owned the mistake. Call the time out; and throw some sideline routes to get out-of-bounds. Even if he owned it, he might still have been fired as coaches with losing records often pay the price. The lack of good football players be damned such as McCarthey at Dallas who probably is done.

    Football guys never admit their mistakes. They think it makes them look weak.

    Also, football coaches are some of the dumbest people on the planet.
