INDIANAPOLIS — No, Chuck Pagano isn’t having second thoughts about the late-game decisions that cost his football team dearly Sunday afternoon at Lucas Oil Stadium.
The much-discussed, much-debated, soundly-criticized timeout Pagano’s Colts took with 1:15 left on the clock, the ball on the Lions’ 12-yard-line, the Indianapolis Colts down by six?
“No regrets,” he said Monday, a day after Indianapolis fell 39-35 to Detroit in its season opener. “I wouldn’t do anything differently. We weren’t guaranteed a touchdown.”
In this sense, Pagano is right — paramount to any sort of clock management.
