View Poll Results: Attacking kneeldowns in the victory formation. What's your opinion? | |||
Football is a 60-minute game. If it gives you a chance to win, you obviously do it. | 18 | 15.65% | |
You should do it to try to win, but the injury risk may outweigh the reward. | 6 | 5.22% | |
I'm neutral. I'm usually in the bathroom when the kneeldowns occur anyway. | 2 | 1.74% | |
I'll deal with it if someone does it, because the game's not over. But it's kind of stupid. | 20 | 17.39% | |
It's poor sportsmanship. Class up and acknowledge that you've lost. | 64 | 55.65% | |
Kneeldowns shouldn't happen anyway. Keep attacking because scoring is the eighth or ninth tiebreaker for the playoffs. | 5 | 4.35% | |

Put it this way: suppose Pat faked a kneel down, and suddenly threw it to a wide open TE who released off the line,who sprints downfield alone and scored a cheap TD. How would their players react? Would their fans boo?
To even ask the question is to answer it. |

If I was a coach I'd do it at halftime. Why not?

I can understand both sides of the coin. I would lean towards not activity playing the kneel down.
My guess would be that when it gets to this point in a game the defense would tell the offense, "hey we are not going to try" and so folks know they are not going to try. Then at times will let them know, we need to try this time around. |

Personally, I don't like the kneel down rule. Play until the game is over. Make the other team earn it. How is it any different than any other play? Same with spiking the ball; to me, that's garbage.

Of course, you WOULD think that.

It's somewhat situational. Yesterday they had us pinned close to our goal line, and they were only down 1 score. It's not crazy for them to attack in that situation. I don't think it warrants doing it all the time just to fight to the end, but this was a situation where as a Chiefs fan I wasn't 100% comfortable that we had enough backfield room to work with.
