If you end up losing the game, your plan has failed. Everything else is just sports talk.

Then maybe we wouldn't have to resort to stallball. It's about minimizing the impact of your limitations. Huge lead ? A 3-1 4th qtr ratio is acceptable when you enter the qtr with a 3 goal lead. It's like playing the hated prevent D to give up FG's or time consuming TD drive's rather than quick strike TD's. It's not fun to watch & nobody likes it particularly (Coaches included), but sometimes it's what you gotta do to give your team the best % of winning. Winning Ugly, I believe it's called.

Or, is he wrong also? With our offense, a 3-1 ratio, while in the stall is not good, unless we have a huge lead. Randy,
