might be Payton's best call this season

...signature run against last year for a TD. The safeties split and it was clear sailing.

Great blocking by Keyshawn and Peerless Price too.

I was yelling for Key when he made that block, it was excellent! Price also did a good job of keeping his guy away from Barber and I thought Barber should have cut inside to utilize it but I guess he was focused on getting out of bounds.

I'm wondering if this could have been a TD if he'd tried to go inside Price instead of outside. Wouldn't have helped the clock, but...

I thought so too, but it was an unblocked Dawkins he was avoiding. You could see it on the replay.

Big block by Price though, I told y'all he'd block.

Same thing I did. I remember saying "they are going to run it here and get stopped cold".

Al Johnson made a key block on that run on the blitzing Trotter.

Keyshawn is such a willing and enthusiastic blocker. I just watched that play again and he TAKES IT TO #27 on that draw. Gave us an extra 15 yards. He rocks. I love this Team!

We could have just have easily been stuffed for three yards and everyone would be calling for Payton's head.

All that matters is that we executed, and I'm glad we did :)

Not to take anything away from Barber, cause it was a really nice run, but I wonder if JJ would have been able to take it all the way, simply due to his greater speed.

I was just about to post this.

Key really made a great effort to get up field and he put a great block in that got MB3 another 10 yards.
