Go For It
Seattle Seahawks coach Pete Carroll has refused to kick a field goal on fourth down three times this season and is 0 for 3 when he went for it. Maybe he will realize he is not coaching college football anymore.

sweeeeeet scooop wolfman!!!
between Mr. Coffee messing up 3rd downs and Cheatey screwing up 4th downs, it's a wonder the Caesarhawks are 5-4!!! Hassleback must be calling audibles on 1st and 2nd downs!!!
oh, ChuckerBucker, you've done it AGAIN!!
Typical Wolf...lazy and misleading. Of the 3, one occured during garbage time (the game ended 3 plays later). The other two were questionable...4th and 2 with a late 10 point deficit (Seattle lost by 17), and 4th and 1 with an early 7 point lead (Seattle won by 18). This is over the course of 9 games!
Seattle is 3-9 overall on 4th down. Of the other 6 attempts, they were all outside of a 55 yard FG attempt (Mare's longest is 51 this season). Seattle converted one (which lead to a FG) and botched a fake punt (which allowed the opponent to kick a FG before half). The rest were end-of-half or desparation attempts.
Carroll's 4th down strategy is mainstream NFL. More important, his Seahawks are in first place in the NFC West. Maybe Wolf will realize that nobody cares about his opinion of Carroll's coaching anymore.
"You wanna go for it on fourth down? Go play intramurals, brother."
Big balls Pete has passed his big balls onto Kiff. That gutsy 4th down call with Mustain sure took some balls. Something UCLA fans will never know.
Bruin Rob washes Rick New Weasel's balls daily...
Monopoly, Y the hard on for Bruin Rob? Dem Blue nuggets of yours need a rest
Damn, SW, you come off like a jilted lover.
New Weasel has balls? Who knew !!!!!!
JAG: Excellent points. Also, he missed that, with 9, Seattle is tied for 10th in the league in fourth-down attempts. The top team has made 16 attempts. With 3 conversions, they are tied for 16th, while the top team has converted 8.

Maybe someday Wolf will realize PC doesn't coach USC anymore.
He probably needs to pick on PC because Kiffin won't take any of his piddly stabs and pokes.
