Yall can focus on the gimmicks I mentioned (fake punts), but what about the blocked kicks and big returns.... All we get is fair catches, which I get and I appreciate the posters who highlighted the thinking is that's the safest. But let's focus on the gimmicks as if we've been too good for those in the last 7 years (outside of last year).
I personally don't consider "gimmicks" desperate plays, but I'm letting that narrative slide because it's a key point to some posters debate I guess. Was the Mixon HB pass in the SB a desperate play? Was years of Pittsburg killing us with "gimmick" plays desperate when they were headed to Superbowls and winning records?
Some of this is creativity, and creativity breads confidence and eliminates what everyone has been crying about the past two weeks predictability. ie here comes a good o'le fair catch.
