If they knew that all they wanted to accomplish was to put the ball in the center of the field, they should have kicked on 2nd down. That way if an emergency happens (like a bad hold) they just need to cover the ball and live on.

I think on 2nd down they were further back. They gained a small amount of yards on the runs.

Which begs the question, why not do a short screen to Chase? High percentage and he gains yards.
