We're 1 game away from the SB because our coach sucks and Hurts has to carry the rest of the team since there is no "big picture" or progress anywhere since we began the season

Yes....from Dickerson, Mailata 

Obviously I’m saying you’re  underestimating the powerful leg drive of QB1 on the plays success

What alternative do YOU suggest? Assuming my BU QB is in for my starter WHY would I risk him also? Please tell me you are smarter than this

Hurts is playing…you know that. But how do you handle that play? We haven’t even begun getting into the whole potential having our top two QBs not available for the SB. Some deep rabbit hole stuff you going into there. Have to recognize it’s a real consideration. It always is…in the back of your mind. But this week…probability charts would prove much more likely. Many of us fans have openly questioned whether Tanner would be the better backup option over Pickett.

O line and push from behind. The O line positioning is key,not the body being shoved

I think Hurts always churning with that power…just grinding nonstop is a key.

LMAO back to the theoretical? OK WHICH team are you game planning for in the SB while you ignore the wuss? Just ridiculously stupid to ignore THIS WEEKS GAME rather than admit you are wrong 

I’m saying….if you had already been preparing this guy thinking ahead….I’m all ears. But just trying to teach a TE or backup RB this play forcing it in just this week…what could go wrong?

Let’s just see if we have some things we’ve been holding in reserve here. Siri we all know loves to hold those cards tight to his vest. Everything’s pretty much built all up to this moment all along this season, right?  Be a fabulous time to bust out some new wrinkles to hit those Washington ***** with here.

Quinn is plenty familiar with us. He was the DC in Dallas with Moore. Before the two games this season. Not sure it gets more intimate than this….except brothers going head to head.

Going against Siri and working with Moore every day. It goes both ways of course. Kliff against Fangio is a whole other beast. Old school D mind against the more freshly college spread O mind.

So are your 31 points going to be enough to win this game for us FL?

I already told you how I would handle it if Hurts was a no go

What say you on our backup QB….if you were our coach…McKee or Pickett is your number two NFC Championship game?

You can't teach a PRO ONE play in a week?

I believe so. We need our D to be better than theirs

I keep saying Hurts is playing…we know that. But how do you handle The Brotherly Shove play? Hurts starting ….doesn’t have to necessarily mean you are treating things like business as usual.

Pickett surprised me playing as well as he did last time. He wasn't too hot before that/ I think McKee would do well. He is tall and can see the field to find the receivers. I like him. Not really a Pickett fan. if he is cold he will have more turnovers than McDonalds

I think we'd need to abandon that play this week,or have an alternative plan. No reason we should take 4 downs to get 10 yards and hopefully avoid needing to do it

I’m personally not comfortable if that the plan. Not teaching a nonQB how to take a snap under C….all the way to do it in the craziest situation and environment possible. Teach how to take a snap under C, with everybody firing off as quick as ever possible, with as crowded a mob scene as possible stacked together right in there…..no.

  Could a new play be taught and added …sure…some plays. I don’t see teaching some TE(whichever nonQB)all this in a week. Just screaming for disaster in my eyes.

Totally political nonanswer. Sounds like you are leaning McKee…with the not a Pickett fan part. McKee? Or Pickett?

I’m more with the newer age line of thinking believing much more in utilizing four downs. It’s a weapon. Your playbooks is so much more wide open if you aren’t scared of utilizing fourth downs. Oh….and how it gets in the DCs head. Kind of gets you ahead of the down and distance checkpoints all along. 3rd and 4….easy could be a run. Heck at the opponents 40? We’d go for it on most any fourth and anything reasonable….not just one.

But that’s exactly the answer I was just curious what you thought. Abandon crossing it off the playcall sheet is your opinion. Gotcha. No right answers today unfortunately…but we need to get this decision correct. By ‘we’ I mean…you know…

I’m a no for this one play

Seems like our plays are fairly limited as it is. I’d think we’d need to be very focused on trying to perfect a couple pass play concepts specifically needed for this matchup if anything. Flood levels route trees…or something.

Not underestimating Hurts leg drive... I'm saying Pickett's leg drive while having a broken rib doesn't mean much.  

When they describe the play.  The QB needs to be able to be manipulated forward...almost like a surfer. 

Great description of the play last offseason.  Google is a great tool.

Hurts will do the tush push.  They  already called one and also called a naked bootleg left...after he hurt his knee.  Stop creating drama.

That's what you want to believe regardless of what actually happens 

...when you get an idea in your head...a vision...a theory...no matter how obvious the eyes and research will tell you..you won't see it any other way
