3rd and 2 run call

[trents]

I hate to pin the outcome of a game on one play but one call either Wilson or Carroll made on 3rd and 2 on Seattle' last possession before regulation expired. He called a handoff to the running back when everybody was expecting that and it was stopped. I would have like to have seen something more creative tried. Had we made that first down we could have salted the game away. That one left a bad taste in my mouth. I just felt something bad was going to come of it and it did.

I didn't like that call, either. There was no need to force AZ to use a timeout as they had already burned their last one. I would have opted for some sort of RPO and put the game in Russell's hands to make 2 frigging yards.

I agree! I was pissed at that play, run a sweep, set of the screen, anything is a better risk than a straight up hand off up the middle on a stacked defense!

yep, very frustrating

Especially notable when you consider that by that time our defense was gassed and totally unable to stop the Cards on offense whenever they got the ball.
