    Just an observation... It seems we could pick up some big plays by using play action more in the future. With how efficient the O-line has been running the ball this year, if Flynn or Perrilloux could develop a super convincing play action fake ala Peyton Manning we could get some huge pickups.

    There's been much talk about the lack of downfield balls and this could be a realistic solution. Right now, Flynn's ball fake isn't that convincing - he just sticks the ball out with both hands. He doesn't really sell the play action to make the defense bite.

    Play action out of the I-formation with one of our burner receivers lead to quick strike points.

    Definitly play action was missing last night, I guess they didn't feel confident throwing downfield with Early being out.
