    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (playaofthegame @ Feb 3 2008, 08:53 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>I don't think it was a bad coaching move. It's the Super Bowl and Gostowski is a 2nd year player. He hasn't been very good in the playoffs with field goals in his 2 years here. Your odds are the same going for a pass or kicking a field goal. If you miss the field goal your still giving up the field position. It was too short of a distance to punt as well.

    If anything it was a horrendous throw by Brady.</div>

    I agree Brady's been playing bad, but I recall that the chances of making a 4th and 2 are better than a 50 yard field goal.

    However, a 4th and 13 does not have a higher chance of success on average. Saw that in an article.

    That pass was even more accurate than you think, Eli had to stick it between the receiver and a referee that got in the way, incredibly.

    Superbowl seems pretty lame to me.

    Eli really missed that one throw to Burress. That really sucked. If he made that, who knows where the Giants would be right now. Ahead by a touchdown..?

    Oh well, I'm going to play super smash. Cause I'm bored

    I never understood this. The Giants played great D all game long. They get the lead, and they change what they were doing and New England capitalizes on it. Happens a LOT in the NFL.
