Agreed Roman. It was obvious from the very first play that McVay couldn't wait to get his new "toy" some action and was determined to do it. McVay would have continued to try and force it if hadn't gone so badly.

Don't know if i agree. I think he had to establish that OBJ wasn't just on the field as a decoy, that he'd be part of the game plan.
To do so on a high risk pass, probably not the right choice. But I can't say whether that was McVay or Stafford's call.
