I know it was tipped, but that play was still short of the sticks play. When are we going to learn?
You see. The defense knows where the sticks are too. So we run short in order to make them miss and then we run for the first down. This is sarcasm since that was the response to the earlier inquiry as to why we run our routes short.

I'm no scheme expert but ...

If your LB's are terrible at coverage, why not rush more than 3?

Seems like "go try to sack the QB" is an easier skill to master than coverage.
Ward properly assessed that he could play in this game without taking any hits. They aren't really using him at all in the run game, but other than that he's as safe as Ft. Knox.
