I’m a big believer in “two sides to every story”, but that decision by Marrone is indefensible. There were SEVENTY TWO seconds left.

If the Rams were in a similar situation, there is no way I’d support going for a 54-yard FG with 72 seconds left, and GZ has a great range. On second and eight with 72 seconds, you absolutely must give your kicker a chance to get a bit closer.

Just comparing FG percentages from 50plus vs. 40-49... significant difference. Add in a full 1:12 remaining, with rams leaving a 10 yard pass in the middle wide open, it’s a clear decision.
