Only a complete fool lacking a pair wouldn't give Peyton Manning a chance with 3 TO's to get into FG range in Denver of all places where the ball flies.
Coaching scared never wins championships and that's a fact.
Belichick trusted a QB he drafted in the 6th round to put his team in FG range and ended up winning the super bowl.
