I do think Turner is trying to get our playmakers involved, and with the limitations at QB he probably feels like he has to do things like he did on this play. But Curtis Samuel is not Deebo Samuel, and he has no business getting the ball on a run up the middle on 3rd and 3 (or whatever it was). Sometimes I get the feeling that ST just gets way too creative, when something straight forward that has been working - would work. It's a big contributor to our Red Zone issues too in my opinion. I'm not against creativity of course, but there is such a thing as being "too cute" with the play calling. When we need 1-3 yards, give the ball to BRob. He will get the first down probably 7-8 out of 10 times.

Yeah running Samuel up the middle, even if you get the D look you want ... its one of those decisions were youd better be right.
If it works? Genuis!
Fails? straight to jail.
Id like to see some actual normla jet sweep ... like actually hand it off to samuel or whoever is in motion vs just going through the motion half ass, D knows its half ass
Like Paulsen said of our half hearted shotgun PA that isnt fooling anyone .. i want a hard under center PA in like 12 personnel or 21 where Brob is the fake runner turned blocker and Gibson is the hot dump off if needed but Terry and Dotson are screaming down the field
idk
Ive been playing a lot of madden lately
