Oh so instead of white pawn takes black rook, you'd go white rook to g8.
This forces black king to f7. White rook takes black rook, putting black in check.
Black king can escape (which then has white rook takes black queen) or black queen takes white rook (with pawn taking queen and promoting).
Either way blood bath ensues, probably leaving white up some pieces for the exchange. Mkay, I think I see.
