Who do you take? WR

The ball is pretty much always thrown to the #1 option no matter what. So Briles has the WRs, that aren't going to catch the ball, just ran half speed and sell nothing. His thought behind this is that it keeps the WRs fresher for later in the game. This is something that Randy Moss did in Minnesota as well.

It is also a horrible habit that will let defenders know when they need to be focused and when they can take plays off. It may have worked for Randy Moss, but my guess is he is the exception rather than the rule for taking plays off.
