That's pitch and catch and you keep marching.

Exactly. I don't have a problem with them going for it. I just think they should've ran a higher percentage play for the 1st down in that instance and milk the clock some more. With that being said, I certainly understand the intentions of why they ran play they did. AJ was beating his guy all day, and who knows, with the way the ref are calling PI this year at the drop of a hat, they were hoping AJ would either get the neccessary separation and/or the PI call.
