I was more confused by the team's not going to Andre on a quick slant route on third down. Andre was demolishing whoever it was that was lining up against him; he got a HUGE cushion and it was obvious that the CB was terrified. I would have looked to Andre a lot more than they did (I know he caught a lot of passes but I would have thrown to him even more) and I certainly would have gone his way on third down rather than trying for a big gain like they did. That's pitch and catch and you keep marching.
