Andy Reid got depantsed in the Super Bowl by Bruce Arians.
Bruce Fucking Arians and Tom Fucking Brady.
Well, you see, Andy Reid is an offensive genius, and how dare we question Andy Reid's genius in not running the ball and not utilizing the screen pass in the face of an epically brutal pass rush, a patchwork offensive line and a QB with a hurt toe?
How dare we question his geniusness?

Meh, it still a wise policy as often as not IMO
Certain teams might get the call more often, but it still seems like a coin flip chance for just about anyone... 3rd and 20 on the opposing 45? oh yeah, go for it if you think your QB and intended receiver are any good [Reply]

Things would go sideways for them on 3rd down so they'd just launch it deep. I believe the Giants actually build a 'break' into the 3rd down routes where they'll have a designated receiver who has an option to break a route and just run downfield for hail mary.
And yeah, it's extremely smart, IMO.
Yeah this happens once in a while and lot of teams miss the truth to the situation. If it's 3rd and a lot from a spot where your punter can easily get the ball inside the twenty, then just throw it down in that area anyway. Baring a huge return it's going to come out even at worst. Best is a catch or a PI. [Reply]
