Yeah...why would that ever be a thing at such an elite level of competition? I had noticed multiple times against the Jags where it was 3rd and 4 or so and the closest defender would be too far away to contest a simple dump-off pass. Does this make any sense to anyone? Isn't the point of forcing a 3rd and 4 to deny them 4 yards, or at least have a chance to deny them 4 yards? Why would you call the same play on 3rd and 4 as you would for a 3rd and 10?
