Both Higgins and Boyd were held big time trying to break on their routes. Burrow was looking to pass to that side and went to throw. There wasn’t very much time to throw but Joe had time and pulled it back. Would have rather had Perine go in the middle where Boyd just cleared out instead of outside where Chase cleared out.
But given the hold they just called on Wilson which was complete and utter BS, letting Boyd and Higgins get absolutely mugged just made it so more inexcusable.
It’s one thing to swallow your whistles for 58 minutes then start making shit up…it’s a whole another ball game to do it for one side only.
But Zach got cute…should have been 3 straight runs to get 1 yard. Would have been fine passing on anything longer than a yard.
