And you're basically broadcasting what you're going to do. Everyone recognizes that we don't have the personnel to pop people in the mouth and dare anyone to stop us the way it was done in 1984. And you're not faking anyone out by lining up people who are run blockers first then sending those same guys out for passing routes.
Six different times they had the ball within an earshot of the goal line and couldn't get it in. Something's clearly wrong there.

Right on. One time they did throw out of the jumbo package. The other 5-6 times they ran. We can't telegraph what we're doing b/c we
're not that much better than other teams.
