Did anybody hear an explaination for this decision?


Someone else mentioned that Lovie knew that the Saints had lost, and therefore knew a win or tie would clinch home field, and therefore would have been satisfied with a tie.

But, I believe the "I didn't want Rex to F it up" excuse more.

While watching the game I didn't agree with the decision, but after thinking it over, I've changed my mind.

I don't think it is an indictment of Rex at all.

Picture this, Rex throws a great pass and Des Clark or Moose coughs it up and the Bucs run it in for the game winning TD. The crowd would have rushed the field and killed the Bears and Lovie.

It wasn't gutsy, but I think it was a smart decision. You don't want to give a team with momentum any advantage.
