You seriously want to sit here and blame that on the DT "having his ears pinned back" or "pass rush mode?" 

Seriously?? 

C'mon...

I do blame it on that.  A DT who has a gap assignment will have more to look at and process than just "get the QB".  

Also, Stroud and Henderson would beat double teams multiple times a game.  It happens.

Sherff and Harrison also got manhandled on the play.  The only guy who remotely did his job was 74. 

I grant it was a great call for the score, the down, the distance, the QB, and the receivers, but it was a terrible call given how the o-line looked in pass blocking most of the game.  

Not only does the formation put more stress on the pass blocking, but the shallow pocket, back in the end zone, also puts more stress on the pass blocking.
