Easy ... what makes you think that? with a timeout left 3 run play's NO problem ... It's not like it takes long for hurry up from the goal-line, it's not like receivers are way down field... EASY BREEZY, 3 run play's no sweat... Run the ball, call timeout if you're stopped, that gives you 2 play's to run in over 20 seconds... I"m shocked hearing people say time was a factor, it wasn't .... Seattle had plenty of time to get 3 play's off...
Not 3 running plays. No way, no how. Take five or six seconds to actually RUN the play, plus the time to get everyone up to the line, set, and snap the ball for the next play?
Impossible.
Belichek has chimed in on this too. The pass was the right call.
