OK, this is an honest question, so I'm just going to ask it.
Why call an RPO in that situation if there is a decent possibility of a QB run? That still doesn't make a lot of sense FOR THE OC TO CALL THAT PLAY, while fully acknowledging that TVD's decision was wrong too. I think that one or two of those RPOs/pitches went into the short side of the field, which makes things even worse, as you quickly lose the ability to get to the outside, thus leaving yourself only the cutback run lane.
To be honest, I didn't see a lot of RPO in the middle of the field, and I'm not sure what makes it a good playcall (not even once, but TWICE) in the red zone.
Just my 2 cents.
