Got a strange feeling that some of y'all will be dogging McCaffery for quitting early, and are mad at EKU for playing the whole quarter? That is comparing apples to razors. This is not a fair comparison for me as I have never attempted to shave with an apple. |

Apparently you can shave with peanut butter.
Is that a Geico add? Can't remember, radio ad I hear all the time.

Most officials in high school would have blown that play dead as soon as the ball is snapped and qb bails out. If it is an inadvertent whistle, too bad.

They just changed coaches, did Brohm already leave for Purdue? I wonder who actually made the call to do that, seems like the interim coach might have been sitting on that idea to seem clever for the last 20 years I feel like if Washington had done that to score a touchdown against Alabama (big game, definite underdog), I would have thought it was pretty clever, this seems like an underwhelming spot to use that, though maybe this was the interim coach's first chance to call it Brohm had already left |

Why do we need to baby players in the victory situation? If the DL fires off the ball and knocks an OL on his arse then it is the OL's fault for not playing hard. The Victory play should never be a freebie, seen too many fumbled snaps to just throw in the white flag there.
There's only a player safety issue because players don't go hard on the play. That's not the fault of the other team.

Did Belichick copying this play last night change anyone's opinions of it?

if instead of handing it to Lewis, they'd put Edelman there and tried to have him throw it back to Brady after Brady ran out the fake, ala, Music City Miracle, would that have been really dumb?, obviously Brady's not the fleetest of foot

Never heard of refs asking about taking a knee before. I teach our kids on offense to fire off the ball like a QB sneak and if they stop playing the play then we stop playing the play. We will assume that the defense will play hard because the ball has been snapped and that is what they should be being taught to do. Too much variation in high school coaching opponents to assume that the defense is gonna just chill out on what looks like a taking a knee play. Plus, with things like this, defensive coaches have to teach their kids to play every snap so the offense should be ready.

This play didn't bother me and neither did the first one. The game's still going you have to be ready to play. I don't ever remember the ref asking if we were taking a knee and telling the defense not to play. They warned teams not to take cheap shots or do anything else stupid but it was still a play. |

Plus, with things like this, defensive coaches have to teach their kids to play every snap so the offense should be ready. Never heard of refs asking pre-play about taking a knee, but every game I've coach a ref has come up and asked if there's any type of specials that they need to be on the look for. If you don't tell them to hold on to make sure a victory formation is actually going to be a kneel in pre-game, I don't really blame them for blowing a play dead. They got a job to do, too, and live misdirection is gonna get refs as much as it'll get the 11 kids on the field. If you don't help them help you, there's no one to really blame. |
