Washington did it with Jayden Daniel's multiple times on Sunday. The Saints to it with Taysom on 3rd or 4th and short all the time.

My guess is that if you look at analytics, it's pretty successful.

The only thing I don't like about it is that it eliminates the QB sneak threat

I agree if it's like 1/2 a yard or less

Most 3rd and shorts aren’t great sneak opportunities
