Did anybody else think that the game really shifted on that option play when Russ kept the ball around the right side? Pete and Russ have often said the option stuff is really just designed runs to throw off the defenders. There was one play in this game where I thought it was rather obvious that russ was keeping no matter what he saw. Around the right with a defender in his face, he puts a little move on him and is off. From that play forward it looked to me like the defense softened up as they were actually afraid of that happening again. I know we dont want Russ running unless he has to but, IMO, we should sprinkle a little more of that into the gameplan moving forward.
