Funniest part of the Pro Bowl last night to me

Was Mike Shula on the sideline calling the 2-pt conversion attempt, repeating the "fade" call while the players kept telling him over and over and over to call the "belly" play. :lol:

I couldn't tell in the end... did the players take the field with the "fade" call and change it to the "belly" play (to Tolbert) on their own? I thought thats what happened.

What I thought was pretty interesting were the verbiage in the play call. I was like wow, they have to repeat all that just for one play lol

 

I thought the same thing too.  This year on Hard Knocks they showed some of the players during the exhibition games either getting plays mixed up and not knowing how to even line up.  It was funny watching them scramble and having other team mates helping them try to line up correctly during the game.  Kinda gives understanding to why they have to "study the playbook".

They ended up calling ISO , and collinswhorth was like. " looks like their going to run it"

I believe they ran the belly which is a fullback run with an option for the fake. Iso would call for the fullback to block for the halfback.

Shula gave them the option to run the fade or iso. It was the QBs decision. People love taking shots at shula but he was much better at playcalling IMO than the Colts team. I thought our team was vanilla but wow the colts are way worse. It was also interresting to see Foles struggle with the colts jargon and cam whisper in the huddle.

I'm pretty sure a player said "The guys want the belly play." Before they cut the audio.

 

This is what I heard, I actually liked the interaction with Shula - he didn't seem to have any ego involved in what play was run and that's rare.. OC's are usually divas and think they know better than anyone else.
