The creativity of hitting a receiver who was lying on his back was just magic. Only Shawvita could have drawn up a play like that.
Now, that being said, on that drive, we threw on second and nine, second and six, second and ten (the throw to Humphry's), and second and eight. The Shaw of old would have run on all those second downs in an attempt to "take the air out of the ball" and maximize time off the clock.
