To this day, I don't understand why QBs throw to receivers on third down who are obviously far behind the first down marker with no reasonable shot of making it to the first down. You might as well just take a chance down the field at that point; an incompletion doesn't hurt you any more than a short completion and an interception is basically a punt.

I don't understand Offensive playcallers giving the ball back to the RB after they just ran for 30 yards. Guy is running hot sure, but he is definitely more out of breath. Every time they do that on 1st down it basically becomes 2nd down and 8-12. The only reason I can think of is that they have to run all the way up the marker spot and so they have less time to think of a play and get set, but it really is minimal.
