I know quite a few of you made the 5pt but OtB I didn't even consider it as a play. Trying to retro analyze the reasoning this play is so bad is it tries to accomplish nothing towards our timing. Really it just feels wrong, wish I had a more tangible explanation to share.

I jacked up the rollout settings and I'm not really concerned with what the absolute correct play is in the position. I'm only worried about what is definitely wrong so this rollout is good enough.
