Could the dynamic of the game have been different if

Nancy's Taint chose to receive instead of defer?
If they got the ball to start and say hit a couple of passes and maybe kick a FG, the momentum would definitely been different. Instead they kicked, we scored and never looked back.
Just another dumb move by Doren or am I off base? I guess we will never know.

And they chose to go into the wind in the third quarter too. Perhaps that choice wasn’t theirs but if it was, it was the wrong one. But, everything they did was wrong. 41. 7

If they deferred

Then we would get to choose the end we go to, right? Or they defer so we have to elect to receive then they get to pick the end? Unclear on how that works

The 40 yard KO return changed the dynamic immediately.

If we’re going to talk about “what if’s” then what If they pin us inside the 20 yard line, then perhaps they play TL more aggressively and get a 3 & out and good field position.

but I didnt think declining the first holding penalty against us wasnt too smart on their part.

No. Our D was dialed in. They could have had the opening kickoff and the 2nd half opening kickoff and we still crush them. I agree declining the holding was a what the .. moment, but it still had no impact on the inevitable outcome on Saturday.
