If the Defense doesn't do that, then everybody is at the LOS and it's harder to make the first. It comes down to spacing basically. The real problem is that we have a QB and Coach who like to go down field and will look to do that all too often in situations where a shorter route or a run might be better served. Of course, it's hard to call anybody out when we can't get 3 yards in short yardage situations with any regularity at all. That needs to be fixed.

I get frustrated when we keep running the same play on 3rd and one or 4th and one and is stuffed at the line of scrimmage. lol
