The importance of Reggie lined up as a RB
Maybe they did it cause of the thin WR corp. Maybe they did it cause they saw a weakness or a strength in the ATL D. Maybe they did it cause they have to start playing their real gameplan and that's the way the gameplan goes.
We have seen a few plays a game that we've never seen yet this year. As the playoffs get closer, your gameplan has to be perfected and all the players must be able to execute them perfectly. I believe that we are starting to see the gameplan that Payton really has installed and they are testing them out to see their worth. If anything needs to be tweaked, now's the time to do it, not in the 3rd Quarter of a playoff game in which we are behind by double digits.
They have kept Reg sort of quite the past few weeks and I wonder if it's a ploy to get the attention off him just long enough to surprise everyone when he is needed the most. That passing play over his head was a sign to me that they are feeling out the real gameplan.
Looks exciting to me.
