I didn’t mind the run because they needed the first down. Time really wasn’t the issue.
What was extremely questionable was they didn’t use Mixon
It was a "settle for a FG" play IMHO.
We'll never know what will happen if they ran a quick out to Higgins, a slant to Chase or a screen to Mixon. But I'd have liked their chances better.
Again, just my opinion. We'll never know. What we do know is that what they called didn't work, and it set up a desperation 4th-down play.
