(vs. TEXANS, 10/27)


I'm hoping that something good came out of one of the worst calls in recent memory, which was the INT in the final seconds of the 2nd quarter to essentially give the Texans 7 free points.

It was a horrendous call by Steichen in the first place ...... but it was an equally bad decision by Richardson to simply follow orders, and throw that pass. What I am hoping for is that Richardson learned one of the golden rules of competitive sports, and that is that sometimes your coach can be dead-wrong ...... and if he is dead-wrong, you don't just do what he says, you do what you know is right.


And if the coach has a problem with you for disobeying one of his orders/play-calls, so be it, let the dumb-ass chew you out with his hot air ...... the late, great Bill Walton once said that it is better to be chastised after the fact for doing the right thing than it is to not be chastised and do the wrong thing on the court/field.
