Another poor play calling game by Gibbs

You're partially correct in that the two picks basically contributed to us losing the game. However, the latter pick was the direct result of what I would consider a bad play call. It was 3rd & nine, Campbell threw an inside slant pattern to Cooley, which even had he caught it, would not have been a 1st down, and we would have had to settle for another FG. Campbell being a young QB is trying to make the pattern that's called, but my contention is that we should have run a play beyond the 1st down marker, if it goes incomplete, then kick the FG.
