Ram Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 Take a knee at the end of the game, then run playing trying to score? If so, is that any different then what Johnson Central did two weeks ago?
75center Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 Take a knee at the end of the game, then run playing trying to score? If so, is that any different then what Johnson Central did two weeks ago? No. Went conservative running the ball until they could kill the clock. Took knees at the 9.
Ram Posted November 22, 2014 Author Posted November 22, 2014 No. No, it didn't happen? Or, no it's not like Johnson Central?
Clyde Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 No, it didn't happen? Or, no it's not like Johnson Central? My understanding is they got a first down and CCH had no timeouts left. So they could have taken knees to run out the clock. It sounded, though, like they ran a few more plays. Got down to about the 10 and then took a knee.

Clyde Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 Questionable strategy? Why risk a turnover when you can kneel out the game? Rookie head coach maybe? Risky for sure unless I am wrong about the time left and the TO sitch for CCH.
75center Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 Rookie head coach maybe? Risky for sure unless I am wrong about the time left and the TO sitch for CCH. Thought they had one left. Birds ran one play from the 22 to the 9, then kneeled. Looked like they took the knee as soon as they could run the clock out.
Clyde Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 Thought they had one left. Birds ran one play from the 22 to the 9, then kneeled. That makes sense.
75center Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 That makes sense. I may have missed a last CCH timeout as I was leaving the stands.
Bluebird Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 The Bird's got their last 1st down and then started taking knees once the clock was down far enough. Classy all the way. Don't try and make something out of nothing. Great credit to CC for not quitting. They gave us all we could handle.
BirdsJustWin Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 Ran the ball as long as they had to. CCH took the final timeout, at that point it was knees until the buzzer.
littleluck55 Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 There was about 1:50 and Cov Cath called TO. Highlands ran one play for a first down then took knees. Definately not trying to score.
