I think if they would have flipped those two plays, they may have had more success. Run Ingram on the 4th and 1, run play action at the goal line.
It wouldn't matter who you had in the backfield, that O-Line was pathetic in short yardage. The line of scrimmage was pushed back a good yard into the backfield. No back is overcoming that. They couldn't even hold off the surge long enough to allow a play action fake, let alone the pass.
