Yeah, I really don't understand not going after Daniels at any point during the last series. You rush six on that last play and there's very little chance he that much time to pass.
Also, Daniels was hurting, and was going to have trouble throwing the ball deep, gifting him the extra yardage was just plain stupid. I'm no expert but, even I could see he was going to have trouble so, why give up the extra yardage?
