"It is a huge difference. Atlanta NEEDED to score or they would lose the game. "
With John Fox as your coach, your team needs to score then or you would lose the game. This is what happened. "It is not something I would have done...but I am not a head coach." I imagine there are 31 other head coaches in the NFL that would not have taken a knee if they had Peyton Manning as their QB. You would be in good company. You do not play for overtime against a veteran team in the playoffs when you have an all star qb and timeouts to burn and 30 seconds. "To say Atlanta put the ball in Matt Ryan's hands while Denver took a knee is not a fair analogy. As the game situations were drastically different. Had the Atlanta game been tied, the analogy would make sense." Ehhhh. You have your opinion. I have mine. My wife and I knew the game was over as soon as Manning took a knee. They may as well have been behind. It wasn't a hard prediction if you got to watch Fox's tenure in Carolina.
