No hindsight? Really? If that play works as designed are we having this discussion and are you still insisting the play sucked?
The play sucked because of the lack of execution and and unnecessary OPI call. It was perfectly reasonable to give your QB an option down there, depending on what he saw from the defense. Indeed, that's what you'd expect in today's league. Hell, if we'd run it up the gut and it got stuffed for no gain, a loss, or a lost fumble, we'd be decrying the fact that TT should have seen Benjamin isolated in man coverage and all the "that's why we got him for our red zone offense" cries would be taking over today instead.
Anyway, this discussion is exhausted. Nothing more to discuss on the issue as it's been hammered seven ways to Sunday already.
