At Super Bowl XL between the Seattle Seahawks and Pittsburgh Steelers, the Seahawks were down 7-3 in the first half, and were in Pittsburgh territory with roughly one minute left and a timeout. Inexplicably, Mike Holmgren decided not to do anything, and just let the clock run out. This highly criticized decision at Super Bowl 40 turned out to be the wrong one.

This is bad, but I've seen worse. I remember the Eagles/Patriots Super Bowl back in 2003 when the Eagles were down two scores with less than 5 minutes left in the game and Donovan McNabb was taking his sweet time in the huddle. They still had a chance to win the game.

@mjwatts1983 3 года назад

It was 2004 season But I remember getting off watch (my ship was underway in the middle of the Pacific) and seeing the Eagles methodically driving as if they have time. They didn’t have much time left being down 10. wtf….?

@saj8 2 года назад

Donavan was just the heat shield for Reid.

@AEMoreira81 2 года назад

I remember that one too (Super Bowl 39). They should have been in hurry-up mode. Then, after the Patriots ran the ball down to about 55 seconds left, the Eagles sent everyone to try to block the punt and they couldn't...Josh Miller got the ball down to the Eagles 4...needing to go 65 yards with no timeouts to try to tie. Westbrook made the mistake of catching the first pass, and with 17 seconds left (remember, still on their own 4)...McNabb threw a pass deflecting off a receiver that Rodney Harrison intercepted. Even if the pass was completed, there's no way that the Eagles could have gotten another play off if they didn't get out of bounds...they needed all the yards for a long field goal.

@@matthewdaley746 So true! If by "reputation" you are referring to his reputation for having won 62% of his games despite having an elite QB for at most 3 seasons (if you think Ben was elite that early, and even if you do he was not healthy the 3rd year). Coughlin won 53% at both his stops, his teams got hot at the right time. He never really had a great QB, but Eli did rise to the occasion twice. Shanahan only won 55% and had Elway for his championship years. I reject the concept that a handful of games against a single opponent is more important than overall record. Aside from small sample size issues it ignores the fact that schematic matchups matter. I would rather have a team built to beat 31 others instead of a team designed to beat 1 opponent, if that math doesn't make sense to you... I would love to do business.

@ericfitzgerald9214 3 года назад

I was surprised by Cowher's HOF selection as well. He coached a long time, but his Steelers were never elite, they were lucky also-rans, he's lucky the refs handed the Steelers SBXL otherwise there would be no way Cowher is in the HOF. Also I agree with the sentiment that Mike Shanahan made a career off Elway's coattails. How much did he win after Elway retired in 1999? I think Denver only won that '05 Div Playoff against New England and never returned to the playoffs after the loss to Cowher's '05 Steelers. I also agree that Coughlin had Eli get hot at the right times bc other than that NYG was just a one and done Wildcarder

@DolFan316 2 года назад

@@ericfitzgerald9214 You're right about Shanahan. He coached 14 more seasons after Elway retired, and had just the one playoff win with only 5 appearances. He also had seven .500 or worse seasons in this span, meaning he essentially became Jeff Fisher post-Elway.

The Eagles-Patriots Super Bowl in 2005 was just as bad. Andy Reid let his offense operate at a snail's pace when they were down by ten in the fourth quarter.

@AEMoreira81 2 года назад

Super Bowl 39. I was screaming at the TV...you need a touchdown or some score before the 2 minute warning...preferably around 2:15 or more. They should have been in hurry-up, and they would then have had all 3 timeouts plus the 2 minute warning. The only danger then would be: if the Patriots were maybe facing a 4th and 1, would they send in extra linemen and go for it (or at least hard-count)?

@effend446 7 месяцев назад

McNabb had taken a physical pounding by then. It was amazing that he was even on the field late in the game. He couldn't even stand straight, let alone speed up the offensive pace. I chalk that up to Belichick's defensive game plan.......just the start in a 4-3 alignment instead of the Patriots' base 3-4, that alone caught McNabb by surprise.

I thought the Seahawks controlled the action of Super Bowl XL, but it was all punches and jabs, no knockout blows. That, and some spotty officiating, cost them. I still don't like that pass in the Super Bowl 9 years later by the Seahawks: I would've liked to see at least a run fake/zone-read kind of thing, and why shotgun formation on the 1-yard line? Or, at least give Russell Wilson a rollout, so he could throw, throw the ball away, or run it in. So, my problem was with the formation and what they did with it.

@mgb4692 3 года назад

Especially with Pete's legacy of being let down in big games by his QB (Wilson, Bledsoe)

@gluserty 3 года назад

@@mgb4692 Yeah, Russell Wilson has had some strong playoff moments (defense & an onside kick bailed him out in the 2014 Conference Championship though; he played poorly in that spot), but I don't think Drew Bledsoe ever had a signature playoff game (I like Bledsoe a lot, but I think his numbers got fat on weak defensive teams and wasn't always his best against top-tier competition).

@mgb4692 3 года назад

Bledsoe did have the AFCCG win over the Steelers subbing for Brady, of course that was too little too late four years after he'd blown two games against them: one cost them home field, the other the AFCCG. Not a Super Bowl, there was no ducking Denver this time around (people that have this idea that Pete tore down a SB team in New England seem to forget they ducked the Broncos when they went, Denver owned New England in the 90s Pete *or* Parcells), but didn't really do anything to dispel his soft big game label

@gluserty 3 года назад

@@mgb4692 Yeah, I always believed the 1996 Patriots lucked out in not having to face the Broncos in the playoffs that season; if they did, maybe it wouldn't have been a 34-8 slaughter as it was in the regular-season game, but I'm very sure the Broncos would've won (they were the class of the FC from 1996-'98, and they beat the Pats in subsequent seasons). Bledsoe did save the Patriot bacon subbing for Brady, but I don't think Bledsoe was capable of leading the 2001 Patriots to that point (0-2 as a 2001 starter). Definitely, Pete Carroll got a bad rap coaching the Patriots; the team wasn't nearly as good as some thought (no more lucking out for them), and certain players became entitled & complacent, as some Super Bowl teams do (the 1994 Chargers are a good example of that; Pat Riley's "The Disease of More" was working with those Chargers post-Super Bowl 29).

SUGGESTION: A Dumb Decisions Super Bowl edition on Joe Gibbs - The troubled Redskins trailed the Raiders 14-3 just before halftime in Super Bowl 18. Pinned deep in their own end, instead of just running out the clock to regroup at halftime, Joe Gibbs decides to call "Rocket Screen"......a screen pass intended for Joe Washington. However, Jack Squirek intercepted Joe Theismann's attempt and walked in for a touchdown, giving the Raiders a commanding 21-3 lead going into halftime. And for all intents and purposes, sealed Washington's fate. Talk about a dumb decision.

The Chiefs used all 3 timeouts on defense, but then on 4th down and a long 1, the Ravens instead decided to go for it, sending in a formation with 8 offensive linemen...they got the first, and Mahomes never got the ball back.

That's the theory that a lot of people have, but there was really only 1 blatantly bad call (the low blocking foul on Hasselbeck for trying to make a tackle after throwing an INT). Everything else was super close and could've been called either way. Roethlisberger's TD only stood because the original call on the field was a TD and the replay was inconclusive. The reason I appreciate this video is that it was always bizarre to me that the biggest takeaway for a lot of people after the game was the officiating. There were so many other things that affected the outcome of this game, for example this horrid clock management in the video, and Jeramy Steves dropping almost everything thrown to him (albeit he did have a TD), and allowing a simple handoff to go for a 70+ yd TD. The truth is that with sound fundamental football the Seahawks should have still won this game very easily with no contest. Neither team actually deserved this Lombardi Trophy as the Steelers were equally terrible.
