The play calling sequence on the goal line was very questionable. If I was offensive coordinator, this is what I would have done.

First down: Run a quarterback sneak before the defense has a chance to get set.

Second down: Run a play action pass with an option for the quarterback to roll out and run or hit Cooley in the flat.

Third down: Run the fullback dive. Mike Sellers is huge, he should be able to pick up a yard.

I would have run something to the right side. It was pretty clear that the Giants knew we'd be pounding it to the left side, perhaps some sort of fake to the left with a pitchout to the right might have worked.

I really wouldn't have minded if we gave Sellers two straight FB dives.

But then if that didn't work we would be hearing "Why did we give Sellers the ball instead of Portis/Betts?"

QB sneak right after the randle el catch without a spike? there is no way they would have stopped it

First down: Portis up the gut

2nd: Bootleg Campbell with a chance to run

3rd: sneak

4th: Portis again

(at any point, you can substitute Sellers for Portis)

NOTE: the obvious lack of Ladell Betts in the goalline gameplan

I think the coaches need to realize that we have a QB who can do some things with his legs. Why not run something with bootleg action? Fake a run to one side, roll Campbell out to the other side with an option to pass if they take it away.

First of all, don't spike the ball on 1st down, and second of all, don't rush that last play. I don't think that Campbell will make the same mistakes again. He'll get coached up and he's smart enough to learn. Remember he is still young and hasn't experienced a lot of different game situations yet. This will be something he can grow from.

That being said.

I like the Sellers out of the backfield on first down. If it's incomplete, it stops the clock, if he catches it he's likely in the endzone.

Second down: fake run Portis left and bootleg right...either run it in or hit the TE in the endzone.

Third down (if necessary): power run to the left, Portis behind Sellers.

Fourth down (if necessary): airmail Portis over the center.

1st Run Left with Portis,
2nd Naked Bootleg with Campbell
3rd Gut with Sellers
4th Gut with Sellers or Portis

We would have scored on 1st or 2nd

I thought we were going to bootleg Campbell in. Apparently, the pass to Sellers had an option to Cooley in the corner of the end zone or for Campbell to run it in. I liked the play call, just not JC's pass to the back of Seller's knees.

So, Gibbs wants to keep Betts in for his turn in the rotation. Whatever :doh:But running him twice to the left? At least take a shot up the middle. :banghead:

I'm with everyone who said not to spike it on first down and try to rush it up the middle with a QB dive. The Giants were reeling after the huge play to ARE, they don't have enough time to setup liked they'd want, momentum's with us, etc. You just don't give them time to regroup. Even if you want to bring in the JUMBO package. A lot of push that got us, right?
