4th and short

[SouperMeister]

This team will always be hit or miss in 4th and short because the OL is very inconsistent in the trenches. All it takes is one guy to get beaten, and on that play, Kendall couldn't hold his block.

After seeing repeated failures from the Skins jumbo package inside the opponent's 10, I hope to see more 3 WR sets in that situation moving forward. NE, GB, and many other teams eschew the run, and pass for TDs inside the 10. Our soft personnel dictates that a similar philosophical shift may be necessary.

Don't take 3 off the board when you could have made a one possession game. That was just a terrible decision by Joe Gibbs! I cannot believe that call. Also, if you were going to go, you don't hand to a back w/o Sellers, you have to run the sneak.

Hahaha.....3points would have been nice. But how about the play call!!?? A fu*!ing hand off?? Are you kidding me? It took like 3 days to develop! If you cant get a QB sneak for about 6 inches, u suck. Oh wait! We do!

Didn't we have the same situation later in the game and successfuly get the first on a hand-off?

Yes we did but that hand off only took 2 seconds instead of 3 like the first one did.

I dunno. I like the decision. I didn't like the call itself. (How many times have we moaned when Coach Gibbs trotted out the punt team on 4th and short.)
