Inspired by that thread last week about stacking an entire team with elite offensive linemen and running for 3 yards every single play.

What other crackpot strategies would you like to see an NFL team try? I’ve got two…

1: A rugby-style offense that’s the polar opposite of the tush push. get your speedsters in a Flying V formation in the open field and let them lateral it to each other.

2: An offense that starts 2 mobile QBs (one lefty one righty) in shotgun every play. ball could get snapped to either one to run a somewhat normal offensive scheme, or just max out the gimmicks and do a bunch of flea-flicker, double-pass type stuff with the two guys back there

    RB’s being trained to throw out of bounds if they’re gonna get tackled for a loss

      This!! Only problem is you may have lineman downfield on a run play and that would be a penalty.

      If this happens they’ll quickly adopt the college rule that would make it intentional grounding

      Good idea but the rules don’t allow anyone but the player that received the snap to throw the ball away.
