I agree a shorter pass probably would have been better.

That being said, JJAW was being covered one on one, so it was a favorable match-up.  Chryst had plenty of time in the pocket.  That should have been a big gain, and would have been but Chryst had an entirely forgettable day today.  I think WIM probably had the right idea.  Make it look like you are going to throw and just run Love.  He has as much of a chance of breaking a big one as Chryst and our receiver had of hooking up on a pass of any length.  Chryst was 9/20 (45%) and his average completion went 8 yards.  Love had 184 yards on 13 caries, and three for over 40 yards.  The probabilities favored Love.
