They ran the ball twice i believe. They certainly looked content to me. I dont think deep was imperative. We had almost two minutes. Im sayin metriculate the ball down the field. There was an obvious difference between the two min drive at the half and the one at the end of the game rite?? There was urgency at the end and pressure beyond belief and rg3 went down and got points. If we had urgency at the end of half maybe the game would have been in the bag. Credskin you said we knew we were gettin the ball in the second half. So what though? Is it a crime to pour it on. Lol. We also knew our d was probably going to come back down to earth in the second half.

I like that kind of aggression, especially when the other team seems to be playing in a "prevent" defense but sometimes conservative play calling has its place. I was personally dissappointed to see us go conservative at the end of the half but I understood that they were probably concerned about the possibility of stopping the clock and giving TB just enough time to score 3 or 6 on our weak defense just before the end of the half.

I agree that with RG3 we should certainly stay more aggressive than usual but to ALWAYS stay aggressive is going overboard. It is the inverse of being too conservative.

If there was any lack of confidence from MS/KS in RG3's ability to run the 2 minute drill before this game I would be willing to bet that they are CERTAINLY more confident now, after the two-minute drill at the end when the headset failed. I don't think there is enough evidence to have reason for concern there.

Yes - when we have a lead of two touchdowns and there is under 5 minutes to play it is ok to take your foot off the pedal and milk the clock. Or of course if your backed up on your own one and its a close game you may want to go conservative and live to fight another day - agreed conservative has its place
yeah how great was that two min drive man? holy cannolis
