Smoot Lays the Smack Down (Redskins vs. Rams)

[GTripp0012]

Let's at least give Zorn props for making the correct go-for-it call twice in the 4th quarter.

A stretch play when you need a half-yard? Probably not what I would have done, but it's the Skins comfort zone play. I think a QB sneak accomplishes the goal just fine, but it's possible that Zorn really wanted to get in the end zone there, even though the game situation says get a first down and kneel on the ball.

I couldn't agree more. We kept running the ball in order to wear them down. Use that advantage. You have to attack in that situation. The red zone calls were bad at the end, but the going for it part was the right thing to do.

I completely agree. I was rooting for a qb sneak.
