2 things:
1. It was executed well to the point of the PA and bootleg. There was once that they faked out even the camera man for the entire play. 2. You can't win a championship on bootlegs. While they executed that play, we kept them out of the endzone until late in the 4th and we picked them off 3 times. I think you'll see alot of turnovers caused this season. Remember not every QB can do that, Plummer is a special case and a master of being able to move. What happens when it's Testeverde or Warner? And in the 1st two series we were able to collapse the pocket in about 5 seconds with the front 4. That's still too long, but it's good to see that we aren't getting bullied and pancaked for 10 seconds while the QB makes a sandwhich back there. Add a blitz and any non-mobile QB better be ready to get hit.

I totally agree..!! If we can not stop it, then we better learn how to run it better. However, Coach Gibbs wrote the book on that play, so I'm sure he will figure it out.

Despite what we did see going wrong in the game, it was good to see the return to the running game, especially the "counter" plays. Used alot of them. Gibbs wants to win these preseason games, but, of course, not show anything up his sleeve.
