4th and Inches in OT

There were multiple screen shots of Burrow doing so. Then it comes out in the press this morning that he indeed did audible to the pass play.

I got to thinking that took balls to go against the coach. But then I thought that if Burrow has the freedom to audible, then all he had to say when he came back to the sideline was that he didn't like the look the D was giving him so he called an audible. So then I hear Zach Taylor say that he sent two plays in and let Burrow call the one he wanted. At that point, I immediately saw that as a face saving statement. You know damn well Burrow wouldn't have had to audible, he would have just had the pass play called if that's what had happened.

All I could think of at that point was in the movie Rudy, near the end, when they are trying to get Rudy into the game. Devine calls to take a knee. They get to the huddle and the guys say "forget Devine Tommy, we have to score now for Rudy!...C'mon!" I started laughing picturing Burrow in the huddle saying "Forget Zach guys, we have to score now, c'mon!" And the rest is history.

Anybody else think Burrow called that play on his own?

I think for sure Burrow went in with 2 plays. A QB sneak/run up the middle and the pass play we saw. He saw the box was stacked so he switched out. Anyone who thinks he went rogue and made it up on his own doesn't get how those situations or audibles work.
