Dumb Decisions: The STUPIDEST 4TH and 5 PUNT EVER | Rams @ Buccaneers (1985)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 14 окт 2024
- During week 6 of the 1985 NFL season, with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers trailing the Los Angeles Rams by four points with under 2 minutes left, the Bucs, for some reason, decided to punt the ball away to the Rams, essentially conceding defeat to them. Obviously and unsurprisingly, this decision backfired. This is a breakdown of that dumb decision

I love those Buc uniforms.
Longtime Bucs fan here. This is the kind of foolishness I saw as a little kid growing up here in Tampa. It makes me wonder how I remained a Bucs fan throughout my childhood! As for that disaster of a 1985 season, the defense was bad, but it wasn't responsible for all the points given up. The offense turned the ball over quite a bit and they had given up a few pick-6s through the Rams loss, which had 2 of them by itself. The Bucs' defense was fine in this game. Bennett's defense of the decision to punt was so baffling that even CBS' commentators (play-by-play announcer Jim Hill and color analyst John Dockery) immediately questioned it.
Those Yuccaneers did play the 85 Bears pretty tough in the opener, at least. I mean... that's pretty good for Hugh Culverhouse's teams, right?
@@eugenedenbrook322 Yeah, but the Bucs forgot to play a good 2nd half and lost. Same thing in the rematch at then-Tampa Stadium.
Bill Walsh removed Steve DeBerg as the starter for the 49ers (thus giving the Bucs a chance to make him their starter) with the line "I'd hate to have my coaching career depend on Steve DeBerg."
1. You know it's bad when the commentators are questioning your call
2. Oh the Yuccaneers ....
3. Leeman Bennett becomes of a few coaches (John Harbaugh, Sam Rutigliano and Pete Carroll) to appear on Dumb Decisions & In Defense Of
The Yucs in its prime. Those were really dark darks in the old Sombrero. Full of dumb decisions from top down
I cannot picture how awesome life in western Florida I'm the 80s was for everyone regardless of the Bucs. I love the videos.
The entire Leeman Bennett error in Tampa could be its own episode of dumb decisions.
Thank goodness he lasted only 2 seasons here. That was easily the worst 2-year stretch the Bucs had since the late '70s. I think a video about Bennett's time here would need to be well over 30 minutes long! LOL
Really just the entire Hugh Culverhouse era was dumb decision after dumb decision. UrinatingTree has an excellent video on it.
@@allthingsgaming6 I agree. As a Bucs fan who lived through all but a few years of his regime, Tree hit the nail on the head with that video.
Belichick smashing the IPad never gets old!
I miss when Sam Wyche coached the team. I would have shown up to the stadium to see a few of their games!
I'd like one where the bad decision isn't exactly bad, just completely headscratching, in that it seems more difficult than the alternative for virtually the same result, but..
.. They nail it!
Taking an intentional safety would have made more sense as well. The resulting free kick would probably have put the Rams in worse field position than they had on the punt. If they get the 3 and out then they would have better position after the Rams' punt. Either way (4 point or 6 point deficit) a TD gives you the lead.
you can also do an onside free kick. Not easy, but its still better.
I have lived in the Tampa area for a long time... I'm not a Bucs fan ,but people were not happy with the team ,and especially not Bennett! Someone put a note on the bulletin board at work in 1985..'Will the woman who left her 11 children at Tampa Stadium please pick them up?, they are beating the Bucs 14-0😂😂😂"
3:35 Is anyone gonna talk about how Shitty that Call was,
Almost like it was Present Day Al Michaels
Al: Oh, yeah, by the way, the Jaguars are about to make a miracle comeback, but how about that grass! It's so lush!
Maybe this is what John McKay meant by being in favor of his team’s execution?
Couple of Fun Facts. #1, as my beloved Cards are apt to do, they not only were the Bucs first victim that season but the Bucs, with the 2nd worst defense in all of football, shut us out. Mind you, this is the Cardinals with OJ Anderson, Neil Lomax, Stump Mitchell, JT Smith, & Roy Green(who was injured for this game). #2, Steve Young was on this Bucs team.
Young and Doug Williams played for the Buccaneers and won Super Bowls with different teams.
Games happen sometimes NJ CardFan that there's no explanation for how that happened. That's why sports betting generally isn't a good way to try to make a living.
@Aaron Holcomb Doug Williams was Nick Foles before Nick Foles, average QB but with a clutch gene.
@@KevinT7274 the hell are you talking about?
@NJ CardFan Your initial comment? Cardinals being shut out by a team with a dog 💩 defense. Chill out bro.
The Buccaneers have the worst all time win percentage yet have won 2 Super Bowls.
I'm just wondering why it wasn't Eric Dickerson getting the ball to run out the clock.
Let’s spin out the alternate scenario. The Buccaneers go for it and don’t get any yards. The Rams get the ball back and kick the field goal. The Bucs then drive for a touchdown, but miss the extra point. The game ends that way, with the score Rams 34, Bucs 33. That was the score of their game the year before.
On that list of coaches who did well with their first team but failed miserably with their second, I would add Dick Nolan of the 49ers in the early ‘70’s. With SF - going to the NFC Championship twice - then with the Saints... well, weren’t those the “Aints”?
I was at this game and it just sealed the deal that he needed to be fired.
Its not like Ray Perkins was much better (nor Richard Williamson for that matter). The BUCS were so bad in the 1980s and early 90s until Tony Dungy finally turned the misery around..
You Could Blame Hugh Cloverhouse For How Bad The Time Was
Technically if the Rams started with 1st and goal they could have gotten a first down by penalty and run the clock out
@Colt Wolf Yes unfortunately Rams gone from Los Angeles to St Louis and Back to Los Angeles is now view as the bad guys for moving back
Where does bro find these stories 😭
