But we brought in Jones and then shifted out of a field goal formation, so we weren't really going for the element of surprise. The play design was great, but our best chance at covert that is with Ben on the field. No halfway surprises are needed when we have a HOF qb and mismatches everywhere with our skill players.
But with 3:32 left and a defense that hasn't stopped the Seahawks in the second half you kick and then hope they will suddenly play better?
I like aggressive play calling...but it has to be smart too.
Tomlin like to say he coaches with his "belly". Well he had too much turkey before this game.
I don't get how we go for it there, and go for two to go up by 4, but then kick field goals from the goal line twice.
