Well first of all. thats the 2013 Lions for petes sake.

Second of all maybe if the Lions tried a few more during the reg season then they would get into a grove of knowing how to execute them when it matters most. Im not saying that all fakes are going to be executed all the time...but you gotta give me something better than a predictable jay cutler overthrow or underthrow on a 4th and goal......am i right? Odds are way better that a fake field goal is going to be executed better than a jay cutler 4th and goal.

Shit man fake the field goal on 3rd and goal and really throw the other team off. Why not? Opposition would be scrambling just trying to figure out what the fuck was going on or laughing so hard that their focus is shot.

Gotta think outside the box in this era of the game.

Did you go to the Grimson school of trolling?

This is true. Show realistic faith in your qb and keep the opponent second or maybe thirdly guessing. It's not like they don't set it up earlier in the game. I really think u are on to something.

I have had enough of your slander and defamation of character. You do NOTHING but follow me around to every thread... my attorney has directed me to start documenting your harassment from here on out.

While you pretend to figure out ALL CAPS and even make threads about it, you are gonna call this dude a troll just because he's Canadian?

Oh, the hypocrisy! You do the same thing to me.

I do not follow you around either. Stop being paranoid.

I'm not going to pretend I am a walking play book for NFL football or that I even know what a slot is. I do however know this......

The team that fakes a field goal in a game always wins by the end of the day. So I'm still sitting here baffled as to why a fake field goal play wasn't called on 4th and goal in the 4th quarter today. Instead a botched predictable passing play after 3 botched passing plays. The momentum that a fake field goal would have created would have been mind blowing. But nope...conservative fat cutler football once again reared its ugly boring predictable head.

Just fake a damn field goal!

Hmmm, don't think any D coordinator would have fallen for that given the score, clock and distance.

And what's the play call? Mega Punt passing to an Olineman? Mega Punt running a sweep 15 yards from the endzone? Fake punts can work because you can hike it to RB/FB or pass to a gunner who's a WR. Fake FGs are much harder to design successfully.

Maybe, but he does the same thing to me. Is it wrong to give him a little taste of his own medicine?

Megapunt isn't going to score a TD.

You obviously forgot when brad maynard used to do it routinely. Try again!

When your on the 4 yard line, asking a punter to fit the ball into that small of an area is dangerous. Maynard has a handful of successful trick plays from Punts and FG formations. I remember two of them distinctly. One was a pass to Urlacher and the other was a crazy play design that looked nothing like a FG attempt. Neither being in the redzone.

I'm not sure what your point is. That because Maynard did it, Megapunt can too? Maynard was known for having a decent enough arm to make those plays. I don't know if Mega punt does or not.

My point was that considering the down, distance and score, it wouldn't have been a good idea. When Maynard hit Urlacher, it was from much further away which gave time for separation.

Don't take your Tribar issues out on me.

Do you have some kind of trolling pact with tribar? Otherwise, I have no idea why you would bring him up. Frankly it's bizarre and somewhat suspicious

Sorry, was trying to be funny and realized I wasn't. I actually edit it out before I saw you respond.
