    HAHAH Wow, Najee and George both getting manhandled in that drive. You know the flag will be thrown when it happens at the other end.

    I didn't love that call to Pickens there. He didn't fake hard to the inside to get the dB separation

    Throw to Pickens = low percentage of success much rather see bootleg with multiple receivers possible.

    Would have liked to have seen that pass to Pickens thrown higher and more toward the sideline so he could have boxed the DB out.

    Most likely. Crap play on next play certainly didn't help either

    You've got Pickens with a backup cornerback. The ball was right there. Sometimes, the other guys just make a play. I have no problem with the play call there. The penalty really hurt. They had a great chance to pound it in from the two if not.
