Dont know if it would have really changed the outcome as many things could have still happened, but you would think it could have helped us out. It's supposed to be home field advantage but we cant even use that to our advantage.

Well, if all else had gone the same, the game would have gone into overtime. Then it's a 50/50 shot, as whoever would have had the ball first would have likely won, with sudden death overtime.

He forgot he wasn't a quarterback running the option anymore.

He forgot when you're inside the redzone, you don't make dumbass choices that singlehandidly blow your team the chance of putting the defending champions on the ropes early.

he forgot that it wasn't the last play of the half or last play of the game...
