The 3rd run getting positioned at the middle. Why not throw to get closer?
Im not saying he was correct, he was being conservative. The fact is he did call a pass play, not 3 runs.
I see the reasoning. The oline was getting ate up, Cappa especially. Due to the pressure the following are very real threats:
A sack takes them out of FG range.
A hold takes them out of FG range.
Defenders were jumping routes because they knew Burrow had no time. (See the interception)
A shot to Chase in 1 on 1 coverage is enticing, but also risky.
