I can't figure out the short kick-offs. Kick the ball through the back of the end zone every single time and be done with it. (Wind permitting of course) I just don't see the benefit of kicking short and hoping to get a tackle before the 25. The risk/reward just isn't there.

Well 3 points in the second half so nearly shut out. That's the definition of turtling up.

Did BB "turtle up" in the first half? It appears he did, given your definition.

You turtle up when in the lead not down 20 to 7 at half. Maybe Reid thought he didnt want to give Bill any more to work on if we faced again or Pats hand made him unable to throw downfield. Andy has a telephone book for a playbook so I dont think that was it. If Pat was to hurt to throw downfield as it looked as Bill sold out against short pases and runs then pull Pat and bring in Matt.

Belichick got back into that game like he always does. He trusts his guys are smarter and play sound waiting for you to make mistakes trying to coast in. His guys go for strips and picks they also play solid special teams.

He could be right, if you watch the replay, looks like Sherman is standing right across line of scrimmage looking back towards colquit, maybe he just forgot to pass it? From views Ive seen, he had plenty of running room.

I've noticed this too and it's actually having the opposite effect. Kicks are shorter but more hang time allowing defenders to get to the returner. Stop screwing with the rules

Yeah if Colquit could dump it over the line sausage might still be running.

Wedge blocking is illegal now so you end up seeing a flag thrown every time someone tries to run laterally. Additionally, because you're up a little closer, you can hang that ball way up there and give your return team time to get down to cover. With the rash of penalties that comes on returns, you have a 50/50 shot of getting one thrown and the opponent starting their drive at the 15/16 yard line vs. the 25. I think that's absolutely worth the nominal risk of letting them take one out given the fact that the lack of a wedge makes a KO return for a touchdown less likely than ever.
