What Gimmicky Strategies Do You Want to See an NFL Team Try? (alien.top)

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

Tush-Push 2.0...

Don't know how many people watched the OSU/Rutgers game this past weekend, but after building up the tush push as unstoppable for 2 years, in a game (playoff or superbowl) that the Eagles really need both a conversion and potentially a touchdown, snap to Hurts who will pass the ball back between his legs to Swift to bounce outside.

Defenses are literally putting everyone between the tackles because the brotherly shove is converting every time, use their alignment against them and bounce it outside.
