Anyone else surprised by the countless 3rd and long dives?

It seemed like we wasted several opportunities on 2nd and long and third and long (2;11, 3;7, 3:5, 2;15, etc.) by simply running the FB lead dive. I'm all about melting clock and we did a great job of it, but as well as JL was playing I was a bit surprised with the playcalling on 3rd and long. Any one else agree?

I think we'll start taking more chances as the season progresses. We'll have to against better teams.

We did what it took to dominate.

It's called keeping the defense honest. Your also trying to catch the D off guard and break a quick hitter for 7-8 yards.

I know...but statistically your odds of picking up 3 and 5+ with a dive aren't as good as with a quick slant, screen, or in route? Know wad ahm sayin?
