Give the ball to your best player in crunch time, and good things tend to happen. Maybe Oregon should higher a coach that won't sit freeman on the bench with a 10 point lead and 7 minutes left so they can actually run out the clock.

    Couldn't believe Tomlin had the nuts for it, was absolutely the smart play though.

    Bell's my favorite player in the NFL. A workhorse who has moves and is both fast and powerful, plus he's a great receiver. Total package. Not giving him the ball in crunch time versus the Ravens cost him that game. Nice to see a coach who learns from his mistakes.

    This. That's why I'll give Tomlin a pass here and there, because he doesn't do the same stupid stuff over and over again.

    One of the best final 8:00 minutes of game time on Monday Night Football in a while.

    Shitty game though, but the last few minutes made up for it.

    I ripped on Tomlin last week, but he more than made up for it this week. If you win with a backup QB you are a good coach.

    He's probably the best back in the league. Peterson is more explosive, but Bell is more consistent and is also a much better receiver. Marshawn is the man, but his best days are numbered if not already behind him.

    Bell is the best back in the league, enough said on that
