And what is Herschel doing walking right through the lap of a corpse. You survive in that world for longer than 6 months, and you do something that stupid, you deserve to be a buffet.

I think that it's trying to stick to the comics in introducing a new "type" of zombie: the lurker. Not sure if they'll make more of it or not, but in the comics, it's a specific type:

Lurkers are the zombies that just sit around playing "dead" until something approaches them and they bite. Lurkers can be the real threat because they can appear to be a dead corpse. One of them was responsible for Allen's death and Dale losing one of his legs. Oftentimes, lurkers have suffered some type of major injury or are otherwise in some kind of weakened state, preventing them from walking around. The term "lurker" is used most frequently in the Comic Series.

Of course you're right that they should be careful and that was idiotic, but I don't think they'd yet encountered zombies that "played dead."
