This anecdote is why I don’t post or come to CB during games.
1st & 10 at HOU 13
(3:17 - 4th) Zach Wilson pass incomplete to Neil Pau'u
Before this play I was hoping we’d run it and try to run down the clock. Then I saw the pass and since it should have been caught I thought it was genius. And yeah, why not use Zach to be aggressive and put the game away? But after it was incomplete I still thought we should probably run it to run down the clock.
2nd & 10 at HOU 13
(3:14 - 4th) Zach Wilson pass incomplete to Dax Milne
One of Zack’s few bad passes on the night. Now I was ticked we’d passed it twice and very likely would only get a FG and give the ball back up by 6 to an explosive offense with 3 min. Dumb dumb dumb not to play it safe.
3rd & 10 at HOU 13
(3:14 - 4th) BYU Penalty, False Start (Blake Freeland) to the Houst 18
More anger. More regret not playing it safe.
3rd & 15 at HOU 18
(3:06 - 4th) Zach Wilson pass complete to Dax Milne for 18 yds for a TD.
Elation. So glad we didn’t play it safe. Zach and Dax are amazing. Glad Grimes trusts them. Relief filled joy.
