That’s the worst thing, when we get down by 1 or 2 scores they immediately abandon the run, irrespective of how much time is left. It’s the way for years, they want to score quickly to put you on the back foot to respond. If it works, it’s tough for teams to match. When it doesn’t, you’re removing a large portion of your playbook and just giving the other team a better opportunity to ice the game.
If the Texans get a TD on the opening drive of the 3rd, buckle up.
