Why would you call a QB sneak on 1st and inches when you're running the ball well?

My goodness is this staff stupid.

This Tecmo commercial was kick ass the first time I saw it.

Now after the 100th time...no.

There are only two instances where you call a sneak.

Either your running game sucks all day, or it's a 4th and inches situation where the defense is just jammed in the middle.

I have no idea why you'd call it there and unnecessarily expose him to harm.

Garrett is utterly useless. I can't think of a single game day decision that has ever helped them win a game.

Agreed. Just run it up the gut.

Because you're not likely to lose any yardage on a sneak. It actually makes lots of sense. Especially with Dak at QB. Basically a zero risk play.

He sat down once.

Dak got hit in the head on that play. There is lots of risk. Especially with the new concussion rules in place.

I don't get it either. We've been running the ball well. Absolutely no need for Dak to be put in a position to take a shot like that. Way too fucking early for that.

I'm really enjoying these long drives. Especially now that we are scoring touchdowns. No excuse to lose this game

We are giving up way too much on the run.

I guess we do miss Nick Hayden.
