Joe Flacco once won a game with 4 completions for 34 yards I believe.
Mark Brunell's corpse won one for us in the past as well. There's always a chance.
Putting Lacy to work is a smart idea. He hasn't gotten a lot, but he's over 70 yards on the day. Chew up some yards and some clock, then dial up play action.
Exactly. All earlier ability to move the ball will just vanish, the D will give up random big plays that should never happen. Trick plays and bits of luck go the other team's way, and before you know it you're getting blown out.
