Do We Have A Trick Play(s) For The Playoffs?

Recommended Posts

The trick play by the Patriots to get Brady wide open to catch a 36 yard pass got me thinking... Do we have any trick plays up our sleeves similar to that that we can break out in the playoffs or Super Bowl in a must score type situation? With Cam and Joe Webb there are so many possibilities. We've seen those Joe Webb wildcat plays this year do nothing, but could they be to set up something great? A big reason the Patriots won it all last year (besides their cheating) was the trick play against the Ravens when Edelman threw a 50+ yard TD (I believe it was that long) to Amendola. That game ended 35-31 and without that huge play the Ravens may win it. I don't think we'll need a play like that and I'm not sure Shula can cook something like that up but it could certainly come in handy and we have the perfect personnel in Cam and Webb to do something. Could you imagine Cam catching a 50+ yard TD from Joe Webb in the playoffs or Super Bowl? Interesting to think about so does anyone expect to see something like that this year? Would it be successful?

Maybe we can get Chudzinski to fax us a few.  He was way more creative than Shula unfortunately.  Fun fact, it was Norv Turner's son Scott Turner who came up with the Annexation of Puerto Rico play.  One of the most creative Shula call's I've ever seen was a misdirection screen to Greg Olsen against the Bucs in 2013.

    • I'd give Bryce until the trade deadline to prove he's the answer and if he's not I'm dumping him for whatever pick we can get and I'm riding with Dalton the rest of the way.  2 and a half years is enough time to determine if he can be the QB going forward so for Bryce he needs to come out over the next couple of weeks and show that. The other players in the locker room don't wanna waste another year of their careers waiting to see if you'll ever figure it out.  If you took a poll of the players in the locker room I'm sure they'd rather lose with a respected veteran Dalton who at least gives them some creditability versus losing with Bryce who the entire media will say was let down by his supporting cast when in reality it's Bryce's physical limitations that are holding this team back. 
    • I agree that he should’ve never been the pick at 1. In my 44 years I’ve never seen a team invest that much in a QB who is my size. I’m not meant for the NFL and neither is he.    Accepting we can’t change the past, I think it’s the correct call to keep playing him hoping that he will prove us wrong. I think we were dumb not to draft a QB this past year and let him learn and compete but that’s our reality.    I’m hoping this is the last year with the BY experiment and he deliverers us 1. To the playoffs or 2. The number one pick and we draft a real QB. 
    • In his first interview after the surgery he sounded absolutely miserable.  Man that must beat you down to have that done
