Saw a replay of this and paused it when Kelly catches the ball. I know people didn't like the play, but there were 5 blockers in front of him to match up with 3 defenders and no one blocked a single guy. They ran right by defenders and just kept going downfield, looking around at who knows what.
It was a bit overly cute for what we probably needed, but it could have likely been a pretty successful play had any of the blockers looked to engage someone. Merriman just by himself missed 3 blocks, any of which would have changed the outcome of the play.
