You have the best RB in the league for a reason.....

Go for it. But you should have given AD two try!

Agree. You have to let him take it up the middle on 3rd down and 4th down. Play play calling there. Though Jim should have caught that ball though.

Here is one thing that pisses me off and made me nervous with Favre. We are becoming obsessed with the pass. We have the best RB in football and we throw from the .5 yard line. I know the Steelers have a tremendous run defense and they've impressed me a lot today but you punch the ball in there.

Agreed. I think it's going to get more evident as the game moves into the 4th quarter and those backups start to get little winded. Sucks to go all that way and just end up with a field goal. Blah.

I agree. It seems like after the San Francisco game, they've started to pass a lot more than they should with AP in the backfield.

The tough thing is AD is being handle by their front line. So it would have been tough to take it right up the middle, but I still give him the ball at that spot.

The only success they have had is throwing the ball. AP isn't getting much on the ground, neither is Taylor. I would stick with what works, I just hope Favre doesn't go all Favre and throw a bad pick that costs them the game.
