. . . but never is? You make the call. Whataya got?
I'll start with the low-hanging fruit. The play we all expect to see every single game but never do. The Fake Fake Punt. Why? Why TF not?
Wait till it's fourth and 5-10 somewhere near midfield. Prime fake-punt territory. Run the 2nd or 3d string QB into the huddle late. Exhibit obvious confusion when lining up. Have a couple guys yell something inane that you'd never otherwise hear. "Chartreuse, no wait, turquoise, turquoise!!" Send one of the three blocking backs (but not the backup QB) in motion before the snap.
Then . . .
Then?
Snap it to the damn punter who kicks the damn ball.
Brilliant, right?
