Re: 4th and short

On the post game show both Gibbs and Campbell (rabach for the matter too) said that JC had the option but with the def the bucs were giving, it was the right call to run with portis. Rabach said that the line failed and he put it on their shoulders. I for one liked the call, Gibbs gave his players a chance to win the game, they didnt execute.

Re: 4th and short

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.
