Pagano 0-2 is like saying "Hey look! The sun is rising in the East!" Of course it is.

Actually, the stats show that "icing" the kicker is pretty much ineffective. The success rates are virtually identical from calling a TO before the kick to not calling the TO.

At best, a neutral coaching call given the game situation.

But you know if Dawson had missed the first and made the second, everyone here would be crucifying him for that despite this being true.

He has a weird persecution complex about Pagano.

You know crucifixion was a common execution method of the Romans, right?

Walk Worthy,

Agree... the intent was a bit of half-assed sarcasm. A complete Pags move, and probably one of the few late game time outs that actually helped us, despite the odds.

Why did he call a timeout with 10 seconds left? Palmer had his hands up and was about to call one...

while the icing timeout worked, the fact that they were in position to kick that FG boiled down to poor clock management at the end of the game. A few run plays and they don't even get that shot.
I think Pagano got lucky on that one.
