Had an interesting conversation with @MitchSchwartz71 on this...we need a :30 min podcast to discuss the @nyjets @Raiders ending! He made some great points about the genius of John Gruden in the end of game situations!
He made a great point about this being some genius by Gruden;
1) super late double move: don't see that often
2) it's actually not a "Hail Mary" last play situation
3) Gruden correctly rolls the dice that he gets 2 plays to score a TD, keeps Waller in, max pro&dbl move=genius
Gregg Williams should have saved the zero blitz for the last play of the game because he'd be less likely to get a max pro double move and more likely to get a conventional Hail Mary 5 WRs down the field where a zero blitz would prevent the throw with a quick QB sack/hit
Big time chess battle in the last :15 sec of that game
