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

I would like to see the Chiefs run Pacheco up the middle on 3rd and 1. I realize this sounds like crazy talk. You're saying to yourself, "everyone knows you run a long developing play on 3rd and 1 and throw a 40 yard pass downfield", but hear me out....what if we just run the ball for 1-2 yards then get a new set of downs?
