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

always take the field goal, the second your on the 40 yard line, get your kicker out. Do this everytime to get the points (especially if your offense is terrible).

Have more back passes, if you have wr1 with the ball deep, have a wr2 behind them so they can throw the ball behind and go onto score a touch down.

Rugby type maul, get 3 O lineman behind a TE, give the ball to the TE and then get the O line to hold them up and keep pushing forward.

Another rugby style, on the restart, have your kicker kick high and semi deep so that your 2 fastest guys have a chance of catching it, I reckon you get a better % of keeping the ball than those silly on-side kicks.
