Did Gibbs Make the Wrong Call?

At that point in the game, the smart strategy is to kill the clock. You do that with a running play. If you don't make it, the clock still runs. You punt it away and rely on your defense. That was a good situation and should have worked.

I question why Gibbs tries to use a sports car like a Mack truck. In that situation Betts, Sellers or Cartwright are better for a tough inside run IMHO.

Portis had a good day and does everything the coaches ask. But he still doesn't get the runs he got in Denver, mostly because our offensive schemes don't run him to the outside enough. He's very good, but we need GREAT.
