    despite the teams and logos playing, it's great to see some football on tv.

    Now why would you even do that? That's a good trick play and you just showed it in a preseason game. They probably won't ever run that in the season because other teams have seen it now. It's a waste.

    Running a play isn't always about being able to run it again. It's about forcing another team to account for it during their game preparation. Like if you show someone the "Wildcat" in a game. Well, even if you don't run it in the next game, the other team has to use some of their preparation time assuming you could.

    Why is it so stupid? A lot of teams take risks they normally wouldn't in preseason. Like, trying out onside kicks in unique situations, going for it on 4th down, etc. It's a chance to work on things against opponents that don't know the playbook....

    Oh no, the Bills are running no huddle! Maybe they should have waited until the regular season to SURPRISE teams! :rolleyes:

    He just wants the Titans to lose the first three quarters so he can rally them to Victory.

    The year Vince made the playoffs tons of people where on his strap and destroying the Texans for not drafting him...I made the argument the Titans made the playoffs inspite of him not because of him, people laughed at me...after that INT I am the one who is still laughing!!!

    First of all, who cares about being "right" on the internet, especially when it involves somebody failing? I understand the frustration at the Texans bashing, but come on. Second, two passes in the preseason do not a career make.
