Plenty of blame would then ensue regarding him not "trusting his defense", had the conversion failed.
And yet here we are right back where the fake woulda taken place. O'Brien doesn't have any situational awareness. He tries on 4th when the preceding actions do not call for it then doesn't here when all signs point t to that being a time to do it.
Shame we need the defense to hold teams under 20 points to even have a chance because the offense is so trash.
This is what happens when the defense gives you great position and all your sorry offense can do is put up 3 pts
Like I said, O'Brien just handed them the game. Poor understanding of the nuance involved with coaching to win football games. He does idiotic stuff all game. Going deep on third downs, etc. He has a lot to learn.
