On Herbert’s last big run, when Heyward ran him down I have a couple observations:
First, Cam is making his case for DPOY
Second, who ever the keystone cops were that ran into each other and fell down and didn’t bother to try to help, if I am the coach you don’t get a hat next week, and if I am being honest, if that is the effort you are putting out on game day, you don’t need to be on the team.
Third, the fact that Tomlin is too dense to call a TO after that play to give the best defender on the team a breather shows that he lacks game time management skills. It was so obvious that the Chargers were going to run right at him as they hurried up to the line I was yelling at the dam TV to call a TO, but nope, Heyward got pushed back because he was gassed after running 50+ yards to save a TD.
Finally, to Canada, that is how you take advantage of a defense, that is how you call a play to take advantage of a situation in a game.
