Charles consistently gained 10 yards, so it seemed like when it was late in the game we should've just ridden the hot hand. We won, so it's all good, but it was frustrating to see the same pattern repeated more than once.

I think the psychology of it is that after 2 tries of the same thing people wise up and adjust.
