Extremely slight chance some of our idiotic fans cost us OT last night

Now here me out. We revisit opening week against the Giants last drive of the game. It all starts with Dunbars inexplicable move to not get out of bounds. Yes Dunbars was far more worse than TWill because he had a much easier path to the sidelines....just wanted to get that out there.
As we all know TWill makes the catch, stays inbounds(great job by Cromartie, which no one ever talks about) instead of getting a very short gain and getting out of bounds. Had he gotten out with the angle he had Bailey would have been able to attempt a 62-64 yard field goal which I can't believe the way TWill got attacked you would have thought it was to set up a 30 yarder.
Well now after that loss TWill gets all the blame in the world which sets up last night. Now they talked to Dan Bailey in warm ups and he said his range was around 53-55 kicking in that direction. Boy was he dead on.
Now the play before the kick we all saw TWill make the catch and instead of cutting to his right and picking up extra yardage he hesitates thinking that he has to get out of bounds, and remembers we had a time out left and he finally goes down. Add he cut up field soon or he would've gotten the extra yards needed.
Obviously Dan Baileys kick was half a yard short and cost us 3. I know this is a reach but I put this one on the clueless fans who tore into this guy for nothing.

I blame that missed field goal on the holding penalty on the punt return. Without the penalty, they had less yards to travel and Bailey gets an easier kick.

So what is said on a public internet message board affects how players on the field play?

Ok, lets try this..................hey Dak, you freaking suck and your third down conversion rate is worse than the Browns, you are starting to look like RG3 2.0, prove me wrong!!!!!

So, the fact he didn't know the situation again and did the wrong thing should be blamed on fans? Really? This is really stupid.

Fans must have been the reason Dak took us out of FG range when he ran 5 yards backwards right into a sack. This thread o_O
