Now, if it was Browning or something, yeah, I get it. But Joe is smart enough to know, you take the high percentage throw, if you got it. If not, throw it away. Gain zero, lose zero. Same as a run crashing into the line, but this has a higher likelihood of gaining long yardage.

Why is reality SO HARD for folks to understand?

It has been brought up numerous times that Zac called a pass play on the first down in OT, JB checked out of it, because HE wanted to run.

OK, let's pretend that never happened so we can continue to hate on Zac. "Well why the hell didn't Zac call a pass on the next 2 plays? "

IDK maybe his QB had already indicated he's more comfortable running in that situation because he's already checked out of a pass.

So why not call plays resigned to run if the QB is more comfortable with running and if the QB sees something to want him to check out of a pass, HE can do it.

We're in Bizarro world this team just scored 38 points against one of the best Defenses in the NFL and the board is littered with armchair QBs questioning the play calling.
