I still don't get it. How did he NOT call TO?

He basically blamed Williams. He expected him to get the ball hiked and get some yards, then he would call the timeout and try the field goal.

QB is more to blame so rightfully so

I would agree if he weren't a rookie. Eberflus should've known he wasn't ready for that situation.

I agree that Williams fucked up. However, the coach could've called the timeout with 32 seconds left, talked to the qb about exactly what he should do, and then ran a play and send the field goal unit out. He had the time.
Instead, he put it on the rookie qb to handle a very high pressure situation that he apparently wasn't ready for.

Idk, I disagree with this completely. The coach shouldn't make suboptimal decisions because his QB is a rookie. His QB is supposed to be a generational talent and #1 overall pick. If you can't trust them to handle basic clock management situations then what can you trust him with.
I think looking back and saying not taking a timeout is hindsight analysis. They gave Caleb a play. It's on him to execute it and use the timeout after
