I know Gruden didn't expect a long pass and a penalty to happen, but I was thinking that Miami can still have a GOOD K/O RETURN and can still possibly win it on a FG..
what he did by NOT scoring a TD just tells me that he didn't trust the D to stop Miami under 2 minute..
oh well, glad it's the Raiders..
I agree. It was stupid. If they could get it all the way done with 1 second left, I get it. But they gave the dolphins 22 seconds. Thats way too much time. Just stupid.
