Jetkid94 Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 the first drive on 3rd and 8 coles was ruled out of bounds so we had to punt. but mangini challenges it we win and then score a TD on that drive. if mangini doesent challege that we probably wouldve lost the game. I know a bunch of people on other boards who were saying that was a waste of a challenge at that time of the game. well it ended up saving us. that was mangini's A+ call and just for fun bellicheck had his F+ call by going for it on 4th and 3 instead of kicking the FG which couldve ended up winning the pats the game.

Borgoguy Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 I thought the timeout before the Cheats last punt was smart, too. You could sense that they might have been setting up the fake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neckdemon Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 what was smart about that? my mom was sitting next to me when that happened and even she was saying they better challenge it. that was a no-brainer. no one is considered smart cause they drink water when they are thirsty.....

You could sense that they might have been setting up the fake. wasnt it like a 4th and 6 or something? I dont think they wouldve converted if they faked it. but yes that was smart as well.

I didn't think it was very likely either. One of the announcers mentioned it, and then they took a shot of Bellicheat, who looked like he had been caught...again.
