    This is NOT a hindsight post: at the time I wanted them to kick the FG.

    Honestly. I was pissed that they didn't.

    With the way the D has been playing we need any points we can get whenever we can get them.

      You want to bring in a 195 lbs. QB off the bench for 4th and 1 to replace a 240-250 lbs QB? I think Dixon could be used. But, that was probably not the best situation for him.
      Even if Bill Belichick was getting an atomic wedgie, his face would look exactly the same.

        the reason why Ben is not that great on the qb sneaks is that you have to wait a second or two and allow the lineman to engage . Then you push forward trying to finding the soft behind your center-guard. A lot of qb's go immediately i don't think that is the right way to run the sneak.

          Maybe Dixon could squeeze through a smaller hole? And maybe he's quicker?
