Despite being Randall Cunningham Jersey armed with three timeouts, Hackett pa sed on giving Wilson a chance to convert a fourth-and-five situation and instead asked his kicker to try to make what would have been tied for the second-longest field goal in NFL history."I was expecting to have to go for it on fourth down ," Hackett said.
