The Skins were ready for us. Haynesworth is a monster in the middle, and they were bringing up their LBs on run blitzes to fill all the gaps. They also had good pursuit from the backside. It also looked to me like Bell was lining up too far in the backfield on those short yardage runs. By the time Drew handed the ball off, a defender was already on Bell. I would have preferred a QB sneak or a quick hitter with the FB on the plays where we had less than a yard to get the first. It may also be that our linemen were a bit sluggish coming off the short week after a big game and playing in poor conditions.
