I hate Bill, but I think that was a good call. The Colts would have gone 70 yards as easily as they went 28 yards. His defense was used up, and the Colts had timeouts left at the end. His real mistake was burning his timeouts, so he couldn't challenge the call on that "juggling the ball, no forward progress" call. It was gutsy. Had it succeeded he would be a genius and he'd have won that game.
I wish I could have stayed awake to watch the whole thing, could have formed my own opinion instead of relying on the post game hoopla over it.
