Quote:You are right. You don't need world beater at wideout. You need guys who can catch and ours simply just didn't not. Blake did fine. There were at least 3 more completions and 70 yards left out there due to drops.


And as another poster stated, I think the no huddle worked because the defense was in prevent and it was a time sensitive situation. I'm not sure that would be classified as the same no huddle that Peyton or Rodgers runs routinely throughout the game.


Yes technically they were not huddling but the elements of what was happening was very different.

Right, but why wouldn't you take advantage of an offensive approach that allows you to exploit defenses that aren't able to organize themselves properly? That's the whole point, the no huddle is a huge advantage for the offense. We need every advantage we can get.

 

I'm not saying use it all the time, that'd be dumb. But we only ever use it inside of 2 minutes right now, while the rest of the league has kind of adapted.

 

This isn't the 90s anymore. Officials call defensive holding and pass interference all the time. If you aren't throwing downfield more, or just throwing a bit more in general, at the very least you're leaving penalty yardage out there.
