Why do that when you can just take you smallest player on the team and have him push your QB for it  =)

Watched the Bills run the QB sneak multiple times yesterday with great success by moving over a gap or two instead of the stupid runs directly at the DTs.  I wonder if KOC knows thats legal?

Saddle up Ingram at FB and put Ham behind him and voila! 1st down.

An even "older" way of getting the needed short yardage first down. B)

Have you noticed nobody does this anymore? I wonder if it's because of the concussion risk.

#64 was such a legend.  

That 92 team had 5 HALL OF FAMERS on it (Doleman, Randle, Carter, McDaniel, Zimmerman) with 3 guys who were almost HOF (Craig, Carter, Thomas).

Bring back those uniforms and helmets!

Leroy Hoard: You need 1 yard, I'll get you 3. You need 5 yards, I'll get you 3.
