Question for the smarter people on the board

[CanadianCowboysFan]

We do it all the time and it annoys mebut it particularly did last night.

At 2 min warning in 1st half was about 2:15 to go running clock, we had 3 time outs so no worry re time. Instead of running clock to 2 min, taking time to set up next play, we rushed to line and threw 3 incompletions before 2 min warning at 1:57 and gave the ball back to 12 with what 1:53 to score.

Why do we pull that crap all the time?

McCarthy has never been a clock management guru.

Every single thing the coaches staff does will look like a bad idea if the players don't execute.

 

[JayFord]

Because if it works you can use the 2 minute warning as an extra timeout

thats their line of thinking

As abysmal as Jason Garrett was...& he was ABYSMAL
He was a better clock manager then MM
He was also a FAR better clapper... very rhythmic

I thought the same. Ticked me off....I'm a homer, but that was not good.

I saw “for the smarter people on the board” and stopped reading.

Idiotic as usual. I can see faking snap to draw offside but to actually snap to ball???????

Dumb coaching...McCarthy clock management is the worst in the league. I'm to the point I think McCarthy is a Packer mole...just here to sabotage everything.

 

[Oz-of-Cowboy-Country]

We went from a too conservative Garrett to a too aggressive McCarthy. But we're getting the same results. Decision are backfiring.

Your thread title has eliminated all the members from this board from answering. I’d suggest looking elsewhere.

Technically, he's just asking for the smarter people on the board, so it's relative. Not hard to fly like an eagle when you're surrounded by ducks.

This is assuming some on here are smarter than those ducks

Again though, it's relative. I mean, if you're in a room full of morbidly obese people being a little over weight can appear healthy.
