We started taking shots we wouldn't normally take. I REALLY liked doing that. It accounted for some 3 and outs ... but any one of them that hit would have put the game basically out of reach and given us more opportunity to pressure Gabbert into mistakes.
But after a few stalled drives we went back to normal and marched down the field methodically.
Been thinking about this for a while. My hunch is that McVay uses these opportunities (being up by 2+ TD's) to put plays on tape. Plays that opposing coaches are going to see during film study. So, he's trying to break tendencies and/or show new play designs which can be used to "set up" future opponents.
