Showing confidence in your coaches who scouted it and players to execute is never a wasted play imho.To me that is a play you scout and keep in your back pocket when needed. Wash wasn't doing anything on offense and we gave them a free TD. It is also on tape for other teams now so it won't be a surprise. That is a play that could have come in handy against the Ravens or even the playoffs, but now we wasted it
Can’t underestimate how players will play harder every single play when they feel they have the coach’s trust and that the coaches are putting players in a position to win.
I think the long term every down payoff is much larger than potentially keeping a maybe play in your pocket in case the situation ever happens to present itself waiting on a perfect scenario that may never happen.
