And you have never heard of dropping a D-Lineman in coverage?  I guess my 4 years playing in college and 12 years coaching at the D1-AA level pale in comparison to your experience and wisdom.  Re-Routing (for those who do not know) is taking a receiver off the path he would go if there was no defender there.  You do not even have to touch a defender to re-route him.  Granted, Taven didn't get as good a piece of him as he could have, but he did flatten his path by making him come underneath Taven.  The design of the play is actually excellent for 3rd and goal from the 5, especially with the D showing blitz pre-snap to make sure the Titans wouldn't check to a running play; but I agree the execution was bad.  Particularly Jack, but also the weakside corner.  Free safety did well and Taven is only considered a "bonus" if he does anything on the play.  If grading this play Jack and weak corner get minuses, free safety gets a plus, Taven get a 0 (even).

I see you’re going to die on this island. When Wash gets fired make sure you show him your resume so y’all can plan your next venture together and share football expertise. I wish you luck in the madden play design contest.

LOL.... I am in the business world now brother.  Been for 10+ years and I am no football expert.  But I know enough of what defensive schemes have a higher probability to work against different situations and play-calling tendencies.  It is clear you do not.  But I will try to add some remedial knowledge for you occasionally.
