Then you get people complaining about giving up easy yards in prevent mode. So no matter what they call, people are gonna pick it apart. Can't win with fans with unreasonable expectations.
No one would be complaining because we win the game. 2 minutes left? No, we should not be calling any sort of prevent. 30 seconds and no timeouts? It's the only call that's on the table. You give them one completion over the middle of the field and the game is all but over. It's not like they can dink and dunk down the field with such little time left. The game is literally over after one completion in bounds so as long as it's not 30+ yards. You protect the sidelines, and you don't let anyone behind you. Once again, it's textbook defense for the situation. Our head coach lacks a pretty basic grip on the game.
