This was influenced by Marv Levy's declaration that the offense was illegal.  So very odd that Marv "invented" the no-huddle offense one year later.

The Bengals staple that whole season was not available to them in the final two games.

Wyche called the League's bluff in that one mere hours before kickoff of the AFCCG.  By threatening to turn them in for tampering with the odds on the betting lines , we were able to continue to run the no huddle.  The "sugar huddle" was what got disallowed....but if memory serves , that was earlier in the year.
